Welcome to the Department of Civil Engineering (Degree-Course) at AMRIT!
Established in 2011, the Department of Civil Engineering has, within a short span, emerged as a leader across academics, cultural activities, and sports.
Civil Engineering stands as one of the most versatile and foundational branches of engineering. Growing competition and rapid technological advancements have significantly broadened its scope, while the innovative and fast-evolving construction industry continues to create substantial demand for skilled civil engineers.
With this vision, the department is committed to shaping students into accomplished engineering professionals by exposing them to diverse facets of Civil Engineering — including hydraulics, environmental engineering, structural engineering, water resources engineering, and soil engineering.
To be a department of high repute, dedicated to quality education and innovative research in Civil Engineering, preparing professionals and entrepreneurs to lead the technical, economic, and social development of society.
M1: To develop civil engineering graduates proficient in the planning, design, and execution of economical, eco-friendly projects that contribute to the sustainable development of society.
M2: To inspire students and cultivate a spirit of competitiveness for pursuing higher studies, research, and entrepreneurship in the field of civil engineering.
M3: To promote quality education, research, and consultancy services that address both industrial and societal needs.
