From the desk of hod
Civil Engineering is the oldest branch of engineering and is the backbone of infrastructure and human well-being. From the buildings we live and work in, to the roads we travel on, and the systems that deliver clean water and manage waste, Civil engineering touches nearly every aspect of daily life.
Role of civil engineers has become both vital and challenging due to rapid urbanization, climate change and resource constraints. Civil Engineers are at the forefront of developing green infrastructure, smart cities, resilient disaster management systems, and advanced digital modelling techniques that shape the future of sustainable development.
