Programmes Offered

Civil Engineering is one of the core disciplines in Engineering. The Department of Civil Engineering at Saintgits is one among the only six in Kerala that offers NBA accredited BTech Course in Civil Engineering.

The Civil Engineering course at Saintgits is also accredited by The Institute of Engineers India and maintains ISO 9002:2001 Standards, which adds to the merit of course. Along with the university prescribed curriculum, a wide spectrum of Value-Added courses like Auto Cad, 3Ds Max, ANSYS, Total Station Survey, Revit, SAP, E TABS, STAAD, Primavera etc. is also provided by the department to make students Industry ready. The Department being a leading Civil Consultant in the area, students undergoing this course gets a chance to be involved in consultancy services along with faculty from which they gain industry experience even before the completion of the course. The Department also provides GATE/GRE training from the third year of study, enabling students to be competent enough to obtain seats in premier national/international institutes for higher studies.

Civil Engineering that deals with all aspects connected with needs of society. It has large number of sub disciplines including building technology, material sciences, construction engineering, earthquake engineering, environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, water resources engineering, structural engineering, surveying, geo informatics, transportation engineering, municipal or urban engineering, sanitary engineering etc.
