Department is well equipped with modern instruments to carry out the laboratory experiments.
The department has a library with a good number of books to help the students to upgrade their knowledge in various areas of Civil Engineering.
The department has a student’s association, “ACES” which conduct Technical Talk, site visit Quiz, Building Model making to encourage the students and to showcase their talents.
