Civil Engineering is one of the oldest, traditional branches of Engineering. It is a core branch as well as an evergreen one. Civil Engineering discipline is all about planning, construction and maintenance of structures such as buildings, roads, stadiums, dams etc. Thus, one can say that this branch of Engineering deals with making and planning of structures belonging to personal use such as homes to public utility structures such as roads, railway lines etc. Job opportunities are available for B.E. /B.Tech. Civil Engineering graduates in Government as well as Private sectors. Talking about Government sector, many enterprises such as ONGC, BHEL, IOC, PWD, Electricity boards, Town Planning department, NHAI, Armed Forces, Indian Railways etc. requires qualified Civil Engineers. There are many reputed technical colleges that impart state-of-the-art technical education to the students pursuing - undergraduate or/and post-graduate programs.

As a Civil Engineer, you can take up career options in the diverse fields such as Building control surveyor, CAD technician, Consulting civil engineer, Contracting civil engineer, Design engineer, Nuclear engineer, Site engineer, Structural engineer, Water engineer, Rural and Urban Transport engineer. The highlights of Civil engineering in LPU: - 1. Most of the faculty staff is from reputed organizations with their the highest degree from various reputed institutes such as IITs, NITs, etc. Apart from that, faculty have got previous industrial experience also. 2. The capstone project is an integral part of B.Tech programme in which students have to pick a live project based on practical problem-based scenario (ideally from industry) and work for six months under a mentor and present a report at the end. This is beneficial to enhance your presentation skills. 3. There is an internship programme which could be an opportunity for getting work experience and increase your chance to get employment after you pass out. But, of course, your academic record should be good to get this placement option. 4. Industrial visits are organized to nearby construction sites from time to time. There, you can SEE actual construction work going on. Be prepare to have dust on your shoes (believe me, it will be worth a lot). You have to ask questions yourself and trigger interest in the activities around you. 5. You will get some courses from soft skills, English language, mental and on analytical aptitude side. This sounds dull to you as of now. But you will feel its importance when you face an interview panel in a company during your placement drives. 6. They have very good placement records and good infrastructure companies visit their campus, L & T, Simplex Piles Ltd, Era Infrastructure, Gammon India Ltd to name a few. 7. Career oriented Software training in project labs is given. To work in this profession, you are supposed to be familiar with software like MS-Project, STAAD Pro, MX Road, etc. None the less, you will be trained in Auto CAD in your second year which is pre requisite for any Civil Engineer. 8. Every theory course is complemented with relevant lab based practical work. Some of the labs are based on field testing where experimental work is to be done, e. g. Soil Lab & Surveying Lab.

Civil engineering is traditionally broken into a number of sub-disciplines. It is considered the second-the oldest engineering discipline after military engineering, and it is defined to distinguish non-military engineering from military engineering. Civil engineering takes place in the public sector from municipal through to national governments, and in the private sector from individual homeowners through to international companies. The following are popular civil engineering jobs for freshers that are offered by various companies: Civil Engineer Structural Engineer Project Lead Survey Engineer Design Engineer Materials Specialist Project Engineer. If you are looking for best university for CE course, I would say Lovely professional University is best University to pursue this course. 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.
