CIVIL ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT

Civil Engineering is a branch of engineering that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and natural built environment, such as bridges, roads, canals, dams, and structures. The Department of Civil Engineering is one of the founding Departments of SVKM’s IoT, Dhule since 2017 with an intake of 60 and offers a full-time B. Tech degree course in Civil Engineering.

The department has full-fledged and well-equipped laboratories of Surveying, Geotechnical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Transportation Engineering, Hydraulics, Strength of Materials, and Concrete Technology. The department has 2 PhDs and 9 Post Graduate Faculty Members from different fields of expertise in Civil Engineering. The faculty believes in high-quality teaching and is very active in projects, conferences, and research papers. Beside the high quality teaching and learning, the department is also actively involved in research and development activities. Apart from this, the department also offers consultancy services in various fields of Civil engineering to the reputed government and private sectors.

Department is taking lot of efforts to guide and train the students for industrial internships, software trainings, industrial site visits, expert’s sessions for competitive exam and carrier guidance. The Civil engineering department is recognized and famous for the academic excellence in the Dr. BATU University.
