Civil engineering

Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including works such as bridges, roads, canals, dams and buildings. Civil engineering is the oldest engineering discipline after military engineering, and it was defined to distinguish non-military engineering from military engineering.

It is traditionally broken into several sub-disciplines including engineering, geotechnical, structural engineering, transportation engineering, municipal or urban engineering, water resources engineering, materials engineering, coastal engineering, surveying, and construction engineering. Civil engineering takes place on all levels: in the public sector from municipal through to federal levels, and in the private sector from individual homeowners through to international companies.

The Department of Civil Engineering of the LDCITS was established in the year 2010 and has grown into one of the finest departments offering undergraduate program in Civil Engineering .The academic activities of the department lays emphasis on deep understanding of fundamental concepts, development of creative ability to handle the challenges of Civil Engineering, and the analytical ability to solve problems which are interdisciplinary in nature.

The faculty includes doctorates and postgraduates in Civil Engineering from prestigious institutions like IITs,IISC and NITs and provide the best possible introduction to hands-on, practical engineering
