INNOVATE… ACHIEVE…LEAD

ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT

The department of CIVIL ENGINEERING was established in the year 2009 with an intake of 60 students. The department of CIVIL also conducts a PG programme M.E Structural Engineering from the year 2014 with an intake of 18 students.

It is considered to be the most versatile branch among all the engineering branches. Civil engineering can be considered as a single largest branch among all the engineering branches.

The structural engineering is one of the division in the department of CIVIL Engineering is a vibrant synergy of a group of leading faculty with extensive theoretical and practical experience.

VISION & MISSION

The vision of the department is to give an exposure to budding civil techno crafts to various challenges in and the profession. To contribute effectively to the National Endeavour of producing quality human resource of world class standard in civil engineering by developing a sustainable technical education system to meet the changing technological needs of the Country incorporating relevant of social concerns and to build an environment to create and propagate innovative technologies for the economic development of Nation.

The Mission of the undergraduate civil engineering program is to develop the students into capable civil engineering graduates by imparting appropriate high quality education in Civil Engineering so that they could be readily adapted by the service sector to meet the challenges faced by the Nation.
To be the fountain head of new ideas and innovations in Civil Engineering.

INTERNSHIP

  • We have MoU with the following industries where we can send our students for industrial training, internship and project works. Subject to satisfactory performance during the training period, many students are later inducted into many of these companies after completion of their course
  • P.G [P] Ltd., Chennai. Arun Excello [P] Ltd., Chennai Geotechnical Solutions, Velachery, Chennai - 42
  • The department invites experts from industries to deliver lectures to students followed by interactive sessions where students can raise questions to speak and have interactions with students.

    • INDUSTRIAL VISITS

  • An industrial trip is being organized for all students at every year. So as to expose them to the site and so as to inculcate in them the interest towards field work and so that they apply the knowledge in their theoretical courses as well.
    This industrial visit aims at improvement of the practical know how of students. Students are encouraged to analyze the practice of the theoretical knowledge they have gained in class. A detailed report on their industrial visit and industrial training are to be submitted during their final viva voce to assess their exposure to industry and their knowledge in the practical application of the theoretical knowledge.

    • GUEST LECTURER & EVENTS

    GUEST LECTURER

  • At every semester great achievers have given us honour by enriching our students by their knowledge on major topics.
  • Dr.P.Purushothaman.Ph.d from Annamalai University has delivered his lecture on "RECENT INNOVATIONS ON FERROCEMENT CONSTRUCTIONS” at16.09.2015.

    • EVENTS

  • At every year to encourage the administrative capacity and coordination between the students they are supposed to conduct THE NATIONAL LEVEL TECHNICAL SYMPOSIUM – MERAKI 2K15 to bring forth competitive knowledge among students from various colleges.

    • CONFERENCE & JOURNALS

    CONFERENCE

  • To get the comprehensive knowledge about civil engineering department at every year National Level Conference has been conducted. Dr.A.Rajasekar from IIT, Delhi has delivered his lecture on “ADVANCEMENTS ON DESIGN OF SUSTAINABLE SUPER STRUCTURES” at 13.08.15

    • JOURNALS
