Wrought iron is an iron alloy with very low carbon content less than 0.08%.It is semi fused-mass of iron with fibrous slag inclusions. Wrought iron is tough, malleable, ductile, corrosion resistant and easily welded. The modern functional equivalent of wrought iron is mild steel also called low carbon steel.

Hi aspirant,

As per the cutoff released by Admission Committee for Professional Courses (ACPC), Gujarat, for admission at LD College of Engineering, Ahmedabad, for EWS category, the opening rank is around 4600 and closing at 7900 and I believe your rank is much lower. So it seems like it will be difficult to get admission there or any other colleges in Ahmedabad for civil engineering also seems difficult. You may however get seat for Civil Engineering at colleges like Govt. Engineering College, Valsad, GH Patel Engineering College, Anand etc.

To find out about your chances accurately based on your rank, check out GUJCET College Predictor in the link below:

Hello malik,

Hope you're doing well.

Btech or bachelor of technology in civil is a four year full time undergraduate programme offered by NIT Srinagar alongwith numerous institutions across the nation. Regarding placements, as per the data on their official website, 35.23 percent of the total students were placed. So, theeir rate of placement is 35.23 percent.

Median salary is around 5.81 Lakhs per annum. Indian oil, maruti suzuki, Microsoft, JCB, L& B infotech, IBM, ABB, and a few more companies visit for recruitment.

Hello Aspirant,

yes most of the colleges and companies allow to sit in their placement exam irrespective of your department. If you are able to learn CSE basic and core subjects properly with coding,then definitely you can sit for placements with cse students and get placed.

Hope it helps

ALL THE BEST

Chances are there but relatively less as compare to other branches such as Computer Science or Electronics. You can write the entrance exam conducted by ISRO itself or you can write GATE exam as well.

You can get both technical and research job as per ISRO website. Under career page there are notices about recruitment of Scientists/Engineers including Civil branch.

There are many ISRO facilities in India & all have Civil Maintenance Department (CMD) which looks after Civil related work in ISRO facilities. But as Civil doesn't falls in mainstream of ISRO so opportunities for new construction and design is less.

All the best!!

Hello aspirant,

Civil engineering itself open a path to various lucrative careers. But with passage of time competition is increasing day by day. So there is attire need to stand out from crowd and inculcate some good skills in yourself.

So here are the extra courses you can do,:

Specialized courses in Structures, Geotech, Hydraulics, Transportation etc. These would come handy if you are willing to go in Design. Eg. In structures, Design of Bridges, FEM, Offshore structures etc. are vast topics to explore.

2.You can also choose to read about Infrastructure Finance, Project Finance, Construction Planning and Management.

3. Learning software packages and taking up projects to master the same is always a good idea, again if you are interested to become a Design Engineer. STAAD Pro, ETABS, ANSYS, AutoCAD etc. are a few of them.

4 LEED Certification

Hope this answer is helpful for you.

Hello student I'm sorry to inform you but no you're not eligible for Master's in Architecture as eligibility criteria says that Candidates must have passed B.Arch or B.plan with minimum 55 percent marks Aggregate.

But you can pursue Master's in planning as eligibility criteria says - Candidates must passed B.Arch /B.plan or BE /B.TECH In Civil Engineering with minimum 50 percent marks aggregate from a recognized University.

Feel free to comment if you have any doubt

Good luck

Hello,

Cut off changes every year depending on number of candidates applied, highest score, number of candidates in your category, number of posts available in your branch etc. Also each PSU has its own cut off depending on the above mentioned factors. It is difficult to predict the chances of getting recruited in a PSU because cut off keeps changing. In 2017 the cut off for NTPC recruitment for OBC category in Civil Engineering was 75.85 marks and AIR 179. The cut off for the same in 2016 was 73.12  marks and AIR 181. In 2019 the cut off for NPCIL for Civil Engineering under OBC category was 726 GATE score. There are less chances of getting recruited in a PSU but cut off changes every year. We have GATE and PSU predictor tool with which you can know the chances of getting a PSU and you will get E-books with comprehensive guide on M.Tech admissions and information on PSU Recruitment and more by using our PSU Predictor

According to previous years data, you might have a chance in Civil Engineering at:

Sri Jayachamarajendra College of Engineering

UVCE

Bangalore Institute of Technology

Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering

Now this is based on 2019 data and cut offs change every year. To check the list of Colleges that you have a chance at, please use our College predictor: https://www.careers360.com/kcet-college-predictor
