Diploma in Civil Engineering 

at Government Polytechnic, Halol, Panchmahal

Hi candidate!

While specific books may vary between IITs, some commonly used books in BTech Mechanical Engineering are as follows:

• “Textbook of Engineering Mechanics” by R.K Bansal
• “Industrial Engineering and Management” by O.P. Khanna
• “Fundamentals of Thermodynamics” by Richard E. Sonntag
• “Mechanical Engineering Design” by Joseph Shigley and Charles Mischke
• “Manufacturing Engineering and Technology” by S. Kalpakjian and S.R. Schmid

Hope it cleared your query. Good day!

Below are some of the general subjects that you can pick during your BTech studies, as these course will advance your technical and practical knowledge:

Mathematics: A mathematical background includes understanding of Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations and Statistic Stamina.
Physics: Mechanics, electricity & magnetism, kinetics & dynamics, thermodynamics and wave & optics.
Chemistry: This common general chemistry course involves sub-topics such as organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry among others.
Programming: C+,  Python,  Java
Engineering fundamentals: Statistics, dynamics, fluids and their action, heat and its work, properties of matter
Engineering design: Aesthetics, reasoning process, design tools and methods, using of computer-aided design (CAD).

Rest, the subjects taught in the BTech courses would be specialization-specific, based on your chosen field.

The salary of an engineer depends on various factors like specialization, role, organization, and work. The average starting salary in India for a fresh engineering graduate can range from INR 3-5 Lacs per annum. The salaries vary according to the number of years of experience as well as location. Many companies offer greater salary packages in metropolitan cities which are hub for IT companies as well as other reputed MNCs. The salary also varies as per the entry level of the candidate. After gaining experience of 2-5 years, candidates can expect a salary of INR 8-12 Lacs per annum and subsequently shift from technical to managerial positions.

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.

Engineering job profiles vary across the industry as well as the domain where the person is recruited. Since the popular industries include petrochemicals, civil engineering, construction and other allied industries, the following job profiles are very popular and offer promising career opportunities:

Note- The above salary has been taken from external sources, and hence may vary.

A Structural Engineer designs, plans and supervises the construction of infrastructural projects like buildings, bridges, and so on. They also take care of alteration and extension to existing properties or structures. A Site Engineer takes responsibility for security, safety, health, organising, supervising material and people working at the site. They are part of the site management team.

The BTech Civil Engineering course is quite intriguing and includes a lot of interesting subjects for students to study. Some of the important subjects are:

• Advanced Mathematics
• Solid and Fluid Mechanics
• Concrete Technology
• Soil Surveying
• Geotechnical Engineering
• Environmental Engineering
• Strength of Materials
• Concrete Structures and Structural Analysis
• Water Resources Engineering
