Launched in 2009, the M.Tech – Highway Technology course at RV College of Engineering is a two-year program affiliated with VTU and accredited by NBA. This vital field trains engineers in the analysis, design, and construction of safe, economical, and durable highways. Specialisations offered include traffic engineering, pavement evaluation, management systems, and transportation planning. Highway engineers collaborate with construction agencies to ensure highways are built to withstand design traffic and overloading.
The postgraduate programs at RV College of Engineering are committed to academic excellence, interdisciplinary research, and have industry relevance. The curriculum is designed in collaboration with leading industry partners, ensuring that the graduates are equipped with skills and insights needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving technological landscape. The internships, minor and major projects are linked to the existing centres of excellence at the campus.
We pride ourselves on fostering a culture of agility and innovation. The teaching methodologies embrace modern pedagogical tools, and the research initiatives span cutting-edge domains from sustainable engineering and artificial intelligence to advanced design/materials/manufacturing/biomedical systems, with a special focus on sustainable development goals.
The postgraduate students are encouraged to engage deeply with the peers, mentors, and the broader engineering ecosystem. This would sure result in greater innovation along with impressive IPR. The time here at RVCE will be transformative—academically, professionally, and personally. Thus, the graduates will be ready for industries, higher studies and entrepreneurship.
