Can you tell me about civil engineering?

There has been a little dip in number of CE aspirants because some other streams are thought to be more glamorous. Due to this dip, the number of passing grads is also low, so the scope is immense. When the economy in last 28 years is going full steam, the entire landscape of the country has seen a sea change. And this change will keep on going for another century on back of infrastructure push, public spending and rising incomes among the population. All these thing point towards a huge construction push in next few decades, and we will need skilled Civil engineers to execute all this. From homes to buildings to office spaces to factories to malls to entire cities to motorways to airports to hospitals to corporate complexes every project needs civil engineers to execute! I would say that CE has a huge scope of jobs in private sector, government sector, higher education and entrepreneurship. Some private sector job profiles available are: Engineering project managers Sr Civil engineers Engineering manager Civil engineer engineering inspectors and regulatory officers Civil engineering drafter Civil engineering technologist land surveyer Job opportunity in (PSUs) If you are technically strong, you can apply for PSUs. Nowadays they are mainly dependent on the GATE score. They are publishing advertisements regularly in the national newspapers. So, prepare hard for GATE. Practically all civil service positions in public works departments are held by civil engineers. This is also, one of the best CE career options. Various Government departments like the Central public works department (CPWD), Department of Atomic energy, etc. Conduct their own exams for recruitment. Following are the major Public Sector Companies hiring CE grads: NTPC National Thermal Power Corporation Limited BHEL Bharat Heavy Electrical Limited ONGC Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited HAL Hindustan Aeronautics Limited GAIL Gas Authority of India Limited SAIL Steel Authority of India Limited IOCL Indian Oil Corporation BSNL Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited ISRO Indian Space Research organisation Start a Civil Engineering and Construction Business in India On conclusion I would say that there are ample opportunities for deserving Civil engineers, the only thing which matters is your skill and knowledge. Here comes the degree, your degree must be done from top institutions like IITs, NITs, PEC, Thapar, LPU etc. In order to make a cut in the industry. Wish you all the best.

It's a branch of engineering which deals with the knowledge of materials of construction, their strengths and capabilities of bearing load. It's also gives the art of building bridges and tunnels it also includes under earth study means study of soil. How many types of soil are there,their load bearing capacity and nature of soil.

Apart from IIT, top colleges for civil engineering are National Institute of Technology, R. V. College of Engineering, Delhi Technological University, College of Engineering Pune, UPES Dehradun, Lovely Professional University etc. Lovely Professional University is one of the best institutes for engineering in the state of Punjab. So if a degree in B.Tech (Civil engineering) is what you seek, I suggest that you do consider LPU. I have sound reasons to actually make this suggestion. Actually I did MBA from Lovely Professional University but I have one friend who has done B.Tech Civil Engineering From LPU. He told me B.Tech in civil engineering course involves so much more than theoretical know-how. In addition to classroom lectures, students here learn via hands-on experiences which include site visits, lab sessions and so on. PPTs, animations and similar technological techniques are a regular part of classroom teaching too. The course material provided here enables to practice civil engineering using up-to-date techniques, skills, and tools as a result of life-long learning ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data. The course benefits the students by giving them an understanding of professional, ethical, legal, security and social issues and responsibilities. The Department aims to provide students with a technical foundation incorporated with the industrial need together with the breadth needed in the profession via advanced study or field training, or as a base for other pursuits. In order to get this develop we have timely workshops, and seminars. Coming to faculty, they are one of the best mentors to us & everything here is up to the mark. The faculty is supporting if one is willing to learn. They teach the subjects with their full effort. Writing board, screen-projector, labs are used to teach. The college arranges frequent industry visits. New innovative ideas were framed into working models and were showcased to 10000+ school students. Students are placed in companies like Cleanmax Solar, Al Rakha (UAE), Dharam Consulting, Era Infra Engineering Ltd. , KEC International, Simplex, WSP India, XL Dynamics, CVENT, Rishishwar Construction, Premier Developers and Contractors, etc. LPU has a dedicated School of Professional Enhancement with a strong team of 130+ trainers covering all aspects of training like Technical, Soft skills, Verbal Ability, Quantitative and Reasoning Aptitude and special activities.

Hi, A career after civil engineering is highly rewarding. There are jobs that involve supervision, construction, design and analyzes of private as well as public projects, such as dams, highways, canals, water sewages and bridges. Excellence and responsibility are important factors associated with the job For the inspiring creators of the society, B.Tech Civil Engineering programme is offered, where they learn to apply mathematics and scientific knowledge to real-life situations and problems that arise from creating and maintaining structures, taking into account environmental, financial, legal and ethical considerations. If you wish to explore beyond the contemporary knowledge, you must opt for M.Tech programme in Civil Engineering specializations. The LPU School of Civil Engineering in co-ordination with Division of Career Services has moved from strength to strength and has placed many students in national and international organizations like Al-Rakha, Simplex, Cognizant etc. LPU students have completed Industry delivered Certificate like Soma enterprises, L & T, Gammon, etc. You can browse some good college sites like SRM, ANNA, BITS Pilani, LPU to know the academic excellence offered along with the scholarships. Good Luck.
