RV College of Engineering (RVCE) has offered an NBA-accredited M.Tech in Structural Engineering since 2006. This autonomous programme, affiliated with Visvesvaraya Technological University, prepares students for a creative profession vital to infrastructure development. The curriculum focuses on teaching, research, analysis, and design of Civil Engineering structures, considering economic, environmental, aesthetic, and social factors, and utilising diverse materials, including composites.
Structural engineers analyse, design, and ensure the safety of structures, often collaborating with architects and builders. Specialisations include earthquake engineering, structural repair, masonry, concrete technology, and alternative building technology. Graduates gain skills for both research and industry careers.
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.
