Why Education is Required to Meet Modern Infrastructural Demands?
BTech in Civil Engineering is an undergraduate engineering degree of 4 years where the students are trained in high-tech ways of building the ‘Infrastructure of the future’ that’s viable and sustainable. The subjects that are taught during the programme duration include Basic Steel Design, Construction Project Management, Geotechnical Engineering, Steel Structures, Hydraulic Machinery, Advanced Strength of Materials, Fluid Mechanics Lab, Irrigation and Hydraulic Structures, Earthquake Resistant Structures, Remote Sensing and GIS. This programme focusses on advanced engineering know-hows where future engineers are tarined keeping in mind the evolving needs of the industry. With the advent of emerging technologies and automation, the conventional methods of infrastructural development are set to undergo a radical transformation. Any top-notch university will promote long-term sustainable ways to build roads, dams, etc. while making sure the infrastructure is contemporary and modern at the same time. The students at such universities spend their valuable time learning from faculty in lectures, but their knowledgealso gets tested time and again in high-tech laboratories and through research opportunities. If a university
houses laboratories such as Geology Laboratory, Transportation Engineering Laboratory, Geotechnical Engineering Laboratory, Surveying Laboratory, Concrete Technology Laboratory, and Environmental Engineering Laboratory, it’s an added advantage. The curriculum at such universities is designed with a futuristic perspective where students are trained to tackle any challenge that might arise from the new age technological-revolution. The most interesting part of being a part of the premier league of education is that the faculty dedicate their careers to education and mentoring where they constantly make sure the next generation of civil engineering researchers are just in line with industry demands and expectations. After all, a country’s infrastructure is a mirror to its wealth and shows where it stands on the scale of development; better the infrastructure, better the reputation of a nation. What makes a university great? Nationally, many universities have started imparting education in the civil engineering field while claiming to be the best. Though some public universities already have a name in the education space, some private universities are also coming close to that benchmark. These universities are situated mostly in the prime cities of India. For example, if a student seeks B.Tech admission in Hyderabad, he can opt for Mahindra University, which has gained credibility in a short-span of time not just in India but globally.
