Bachelor of Technology in Civil engineering is one of the oldest and most popular branches of engineering in India as well as abroad. Bachelor of Technology in Civil Engineering is an undergraduate course. Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including works like bridges, roads, canals, dams, and buildings.
Civil engineering subjects such as civil and architectural engineering, minerals and statics, geomechanics, and structural mechanics provide the students with a solid foundation to plan, build, oversee, and maintain durable structures in the public and private sectors.
Eligibility Criteria
1. Aspirants must have passed a 10+2 or equivalent examination from any recognized central or state board with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics as compulsory subjects.
2. Students should have secured a minimum aggregate of 50% in the aforementioned subjects at the qualifying level and pass marks in the remaining subjects.
3. The admission process to the BTech program is done through the entrance exams such as - JEE Main, JEE Advanced, MHCET, KCET, and other exams.
4. Those students who have completed Polytechnic, a diploma program, after Std. 10th, can take lateral entry examinations and directly get admitted to the second year.
CAREER & Jobs OPPORTUNITIES
Civil engineers get recruited by Construction Firms, Defence Forces Development Boards Municipal Bodies, etc. They work in public and private sectors in all branches of design, construction, maintenance of roads, highways, bridges, dams, canals, docks, airports, housing complexes and in environmental management, etc. Civil engineers also work in quality testing laboratories, Military and defence services, and as consultants.
Civil engineers are employed in all the major construction projects carried out by the state or central government, the railways, private construction companies, military, engineering services, consultancy services, etc.
Civil engineering graduates can also go in for research and take up teaching or they can open their own independent consultancy services.
