The BTech Civil Engineering syllabus focuses on both theoretical lectures as well as practical work.

With the help of lectures in the curriculum, theoretical concepts are introduced to students, tutorials provide space for solving problems and applications also.

And the labs offer hands-on experience to students who get acquainted with equipment and CAD software. Also, the field projects also allow students to apply their B Tech Civil Engg. skills and knowledge to design and implement communication systems.

From the pyramids of Egypt to the exploration of space, structural engineers have always faced the challenges of the future - advancing civilization and improving our quality of life. The coming decades will be the most demanding and rewarding times for structural engineers. Structural Engineering is a combination of theoretical understanding of physical principles and hands-on experience with various materials and geometries. They use basic structural ideas to develop complicated structural structures. Creative and efficient architecture may be achieved by employing the smallest number of resources, components, and materials possible. 

The market for employment of structural engineers is positive based on the high demand for them and the estimated yearly growth rate of 9% between 2018 to 2028. This growth is influenced by several factors, including:

Rapidly growing infrastructure sector: Indeed, India is today witnessing a steep rise in infrastructure including the highways and bridges, airports and so many more Urban infrastructure projects. This leads to the need to have competent professionals in structural engineering to work in the multiple projects.

Increasing urbanisation: As a result of the growing population in India, more and more people are now shifting towards urban centers and focusing on constructing new buildings or dwelling units and this in turn is again demanding more structural engineers in the field.

Government initiatives: The Indian government has launched various initiatives like "Smart Cities" and "Housing for All," which are expected to create even more opportunities for structural engineers in the coming years.

Adoption of new technologies: The construction industry is rapidly adopting new technologies like BIM (Building Information Modeling) and AI, which require specialised skills from structural engineers. This opens up new avenues for career advancement and specialization.

The various subjects taught under Structural Engineering are as follows:

• Industrial Management
• Bridge Engineering
• Structural Optimisation
• Advanced Structural Design
• Pre-stressed Concrete Structures
• Advanced Foundation Engineering

Structural engineers design the bones of the building, the sub-structure, that is involved with columns, rafters, and other elements that help stabilize the building. When they build their drawings and whatever they look after as a structural engineer, that is often covered by the facade that an architect encases that structure in. Structural Engineering professionals make sure the building is able to withstand any force it may see through its lifetime, be it gravity forces or lateral forces. The average annual salary for a Structural Engineer is INR 6.1 LPA, which may vary on the basis of the experience and skill set.
