M.Tech. in Civil Engineering (Structural Engineering) 

at KIIT School of Civil Engineering, Bhubaneswar

The important subjects might vary depending on the university as every university follow a certain set of guidelines when it comes to their coursework, but common topics covered in the M.Tech Civil Engineering course usually remain almost the same that include:
• Structural Dynamics
• Advanced Concrete Technology
• Finite Element Analysis
• Rock Mechanics and Earth Pressure
• Soil Dynamics and Machine Foundations
You also get to choose from a variety of elective subjects as per your interests and career goals. Further, you can also pursue a major in a particular branch of Civil Engineering like Structural Engineering, Hydraulics and Water Resources Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, etc.

This depends on your interest and learning potential. The syllabus that is tough for you might be very easy to grasp for your friend, who finds it interesting and intriguing. For example, you may find Structural Dynamics and Advanced Numerical Analysis taught in the first year of M.Tech Civil Engineering very tough because of the high mathematical aptitude and analytical theory that it deals with. But, for some other person, it might be easy-going and fun to study, as it gives you a channel to learn, explore, and experiment with something different.

You can easily find jobs after M.Tech in Civil Engineering in various industries like:

• Construction and Infrastructure
• Real Estate
• Power and Energy
• Oil and Gas
• Water Management
• Surveying and Land Management

You can take up a variety of job profiles such as Consulting Civil Engineer, Project Design Engineer, Site Engineer, Structural Engineer, Land Surveyor, Geotechnical Engineer, Environmental Engineer, Construction Engineer, etc. The career scope is very vast in the Civil Engineering field. The average M.Tech Civil Engineering salary for freshers is between INR 5 LPA and INR 7 LPA.

The average M.Tech Civil Engineering salary for fresh postgraduate students is somewhere between INR 5 LPA and INR 7 LPA. For mid-senior level positions, the salary range is slightly higher on the basis of the experience and technical skills acquired by the individuals over a few years. Their salary would be between INR 7 LPA and INR 10 LPA. In India, the job providers often pay more salary to experienced candidates who could perform the given technical tasks efficiently with minimal supervision. Hence, for senior-level management positions, the salary in the Civil Engineering field is more than INR 10 LPA and can go up to INR 20 LPA as well.
