Hii

There would have been no historic wonders like Taj Mahal, Coliseum of Rome and the Great Wall of China or modern masterpieces like the London Bridge and Howrah Bridge if there were no civil engineers. The engineering course deals with planning, designing, constructing, maintaining, and operating infrastructures while protecting the public and environmental health as well as improving existing infrastructure.

SCOPE OF CIVIL ENGINEERING

  • The construction and infrastructural development projects including town planning are on the rise in the coming days and will demand more domain specialists.
  • In search of comfortably safe homes, better roads and standardised living, the demand for civil engineers are to raise more.
