A recognised VTU research hub, it guides doctoral research and has gained national and international recognition for its contributions. The department also hosts a HUDCO chair focused on sustainable, low-cost construction.
The department uses standardised, autonomous teaching methods, like flipped classes and blended learning, alongside industry-sponsored labs and expert lectures. Following Outcome-Based Education principles, the eight-semester programme includes mandatory projects, internships and industrial visits, with continuous improvement based on industry needs.

From the desk of hod

Civil Engineering is one of the most important branches of engineering, forming the backbone of modern infrastructure and public well-being. From the buildings we live and work in to the roads we travel on to the systems that deliver clean water and manage waste, civil engineering touches nearly every aspect of our daily lives.

The role of civil engineers is vital and challenging in the current scenario of rapid urbanisation, climate change, and resource scarcity. Civil engineers are at the forefront of green infrastructure, smart cities, disaster management and digital modelling.

The B.E. and M.Tech. programmes are NBA accredited, and the Research Centre of the department is recognised by Visvesvaraya Technological University, Belagavi, for carrying out M.Sc. Engineering and Ph.D. studies.
