About the CIVIL ENGINEERING
Civil Engineering is a good choice for students who want to work directly with society and serve it. The primary purpose of any Civil Engineer is to provide various facilities and build necessary infrastructure to meet all social needs. Shelter, drinking water, and waste water management, as well as the movement of people and products via various forms of transportation such as roads, railways, Airways & Urban Transportation Systems, Management of Water Resources through Dams & Reservoirs are addressed by a Civil Engineer. Communication, Organizational, Leadership and Decision making skills are very important to civil engineer as every infrastructure projects requires huge man power and team management. Key skills that differentiates a Civil Engineer from others are emotional intelligence and Creativity with societal responsibility.
The emphasis at KLU is equally divided between classroom knowledge and practical applications. Academic courses are held in high regard by industry and research organizations. The goal of the teaching-learning process is for students to acquire solid technical and practical knowledge. In addition to the regular curriculum, add-on courses provide students with the skills they need to succeed.
Vision of the Department
To impart knowledge and excellence in Civil Engineering with global perspectives to the student community and to make them ethically strong engineers to build our nation.
Mission of the Department
Our mission is to provide holistic development of student community to meet the ever-changing needs of civil engineering industry and to be involved in forward looking research and consultancy useful to society.
B. Tech. - CIVIL ENGINEERING PROGRAM
PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES (PEOs) :
To be a globally renowned university, as per our vision, we need to produce quality products (graduates) into the market who have potential strengths to meet all the professional and personal challenges prevailing at global levels and who can serve in all the possible positions of their respective job domains and contribute towards holistic growth of their respective employment providers as well as the nation, world. The graduates must also possess cutting edge R&D skills in their domain areas.
This is exactly what has been framed into the University’s Mission and thereby the Mission has converged into the following Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) which are best suited to Undergraduate Engineering programs, and are those that complement the university vision, mission.
PEO1. Practice engineering in a broad range of industrial, societal and real-world applications.
PEO2. Pursue advanced education, research and development, and other creative and innovative efforts in science, engineering, and technology, as well as other professional careers.
PEO3. Conduct themselves in a responsible, professional, and ethical manner.
PEO4. Participate as leaders in their fields of expertise and in activities that support service and economic development throughout the world.
These PEOs are designed to be attained by all the graduates within 3 to 5 years of their graduation.
