Civil Engineering

Hi Xeeshan, dropping for a course and wasting full one year is not a good idea. Just appear for LPU NEST you will be able to clear it. Its a subject specific proctored test, I am sure you will be able to make it. Civil engineering is one of the most sought-after branches of engineering, and probably one of the oldest one in human history. A civil engineer is responsible for designing and monitoring the construction and renovation of physical structures, railway projects, roadways, and local and national infrastructure. After getting a degree in civil engineering you can become:
Construction manager. Construction managers are the bosses of the working sites. Geotechnical engineer. Environmental engineer. Public Health engineer. Transportation engineer. Urban planning engineer. There are many colleges and universities that offer degrees in civil engineering, the Lovely Professional University also offers a programme in civil engineering. The big names in th field of engineering want the students of Lovely Professional University to work for them. Larsen & Tubro Ltd. , Simplex Infrastructure pvt Ltd. , Gammon India, National Highway Authority of India, HCC, Shapoorji & Pallonji, DLF Homes, RITES Ltd. , NCC, SAIL, DMRC BHEL etc. The highest package till date offered was 31LPA.

Good Luck to you.

Dear Anisha, CGC, Cu and Manav Rachna are good universities and have been doing the noble work of imparting education for quite some time. I will you the details of Civil Engineering course offered at LPU. Just have a look. Civil Engineering is an Engineering programme that articulates the concepts from basic Science to technology through lab practice and projects to gain knowledge in areas like Structural, Environmental, Highway Engineering, Construction Management which are in sync with industry expectations. There are professionally trained faculty at LPU who impart both theoretical and practical knowledge for the holistic development of the students. School of Civil Engineering, Lovely Professional University is one of the most advanced technical and research oriented institutes with faculty and staff associated with national/ international professional bodies like IGS, IET, ISSMGE, ASCE etc. It has got up to-the-date civil engineering technical research lab-Unilab with cutting-edge technology and equipment.

Industry certifications, MOOCs, Hackathons / Co-curricular Competitive events, Workshops, Guest lectures, Educational Trips, Live projects, Incubation projects, Community projects, projects with NGOs etc. Are an integral part of curriculum. LPU provides with study abroad option as part of curriculum.
1. Credit Transfer: Student after successful completion of 2 years. At LPU may be given option to join partner/ receiving university abroad for the completion of programme.
2. International Exposure Option: Student may be given an option to go for 4 weeks study tour to USA/ European countries or any other country.
3. Semester Exchange: Student may be given an option to join partner/ receiving university abroad for a semester.

After completing Diploma in civil you can get into B.Sc. Architecture through lateral entry. This will give you professionally lot of advantages over Diploma. I can recommend one university that is quite popular for the programme, LPU. B.Arch is one of the niche programmes at LPU. The faculty of the department is a team of trained professionals who have studied at top universities of the country and have worked with industrial giants or are equipped with academic excellence. Everything about faculty is mentioned in the website. Its said Architects shape the future of the building environment, from buildings to neighborhoods to cities to regions and LPU shapes the architects. The course design is cutting edge. It deals with topics like comprehend design approach and inter-relationship of function, circulation, structure, material and construction, climatology, services, form, aesthetics he knowledge in built environment. Interpret the facet of architectural design and urban realm context through schematic drawings, project report, physical model and 3 D visualizations. Analyze and appraise through research, various aspects of anthropometry, building technology, materials, structural analysis and design, history, art, culture, humanities, landscape, assessment methods, architectural computation and management of resources. Evaluate legal and regulatory framework for application in planning and design of architectural and urban scale projects. The best part is exceptionally talented students can get scholarship by attempting LPU NEST upto 45 percent of the programme fee. Approved by COA (Council of Architecture, New Delhi) B.Arch at LPU is a sought after programme. It even has an International Exposure Option. Students may be given an option to go for a 4 weeks study tour to USA/ European countries or any other country as decided by the University subject to conditions. There is an option of Semester Exchange in which a student may be given an option to join a partner or receive university abroad for a semester as decided by the University subject to conditions.

With digitalization the whole world has become small, this pandemic made us utilize the internet in a better way, now you can learn from anywhere through online mode. I believe that LPU would be the best option for civil engineering. I would like to throw some light on the specific programme outcomes of CIVIL ENGINNERING:
1: Creating Civil Engineers who are competent enough to deal with real life problems and providing their sustainable solutions through knowledge of mathematics, Science and engineering, including project based learning and industry internship.
2 : Imparting knowledge of the latest technology and development in the field of Civil Engineering through updated curriculum and its content, incorporating software learning, E learning, practical learning.
3 : Skill development, both technical as well as soft skills, to make them ready to work in industry or as an entrepreneur, in its own domain or in multidisciplinary domain to achieve the desired outcome.
