I take this opportunity to welcome you to the Department of Civil Engineering, Mahatma Gandhi Institute of Technology (Autonomous), Gandipet, Hyderabad.
The Department of Civil Engineering came into existence in the year 2010 with the commencement of a UG programme in Civil Engineering with an intake of 60. A PG programme in Computer Aided Structural Engineering with an intake of 18 was started in the year 2013. The Department was accredited by NBA of AICTE, New Delhi. The Department has well experienced faculty members with industry expertise specialized in diversified specializations and are well supported by technical staff. Five faculty from the Department have Ph.D degree while seven of them are pursuing their Ph.D. One of the programme specific outcome focuses on Sustainable Infrastructure and the Department organizes annual conference in the theme of Sustainability. Students were offered major projects in sustainable materials.
‘Knowledge is Power’ is the slogan of MGIT. In the Civil Engineering Department, students are imparted with requisite Knowledge and Skills to shape their career. The Department has state-of-the-art laboratory facilities to strengthen psychomotor domain and also catering to the needs of research and consultancy. Department offers consultancy in structural design, material testing and field investigations. The Department is actively engaged in organizing guest lectures, workshops and conferences for knowledge up-gradation in the thrust areas of research.
In order to impart practical exposure to students, Department organizes internships during every summer. The students of the Department are members of Professional bodies viz. Institution of Engineers (I) & Indian Society for Technical Education (ISTE). The Department is a member of Indian Green Building Council (IGBC). The Department has strong Alumni network and many of them have pursued their higher studies from reputed institutions in India and abroad. We strongly believe that, with the type of exposure we provide to the students, when they emerge from this portal of the Institute, will surely excel in their career in Civil Engineering and become responsible citizens of the country.
