 Undergraduate Programme B. Tech. [Civil & Water Management]

This program aims to mould the students into excellent engineering professionals by exposing them to different aspects of civil Engineering (hydraulics, environmental engineering, structures, water resources engineering and soil engineering) with water management at its core. Complementing these inputs are interdisciplinary subjects like computer programming, optimization techniques, numerical methods and remote sensing. Students will be prepared with knowledge and skills for global market. The course is well recognized for the high quality of teaching and research activities.

Students of second and third year undergo compulsory field training for one month. Facilities of department include laboratory for concrete and material testing, water resources, fluid mechanics, Geology, soil engineering, transportation engineering and computer center. The department for training and placement of the students puts in special efforts. Students are also encouraged and provided guidance to appear for GATE and other competitive examinations examination like MPSE, IES, etc.

 Postgraduate Program M. Tech. Civil [Water Management]

This two-year program aims to hone perfect technocrats and technological leaders.  The course structure is designed to enhance the analytical and computational abilities of students, with due emphasis on innovative research/project work..  Advance concepts like GIS, MIS, remote sensing and participatory irrigation management are special features of this course.  

The Major Ongoing Research and Consultancy Projects

The faculty of department is actively involved in pursing research in the areas of water resources planning and management, fluid mechanics, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, ground water engineering and environmental engineering. The efforts of research scholars, M. Tech. Students and undergraduate students carrying out their project work are properly directed towards achieving the research and extension goals. The research outcome is being regularly published and presented by the faculty as well as students in international/national technical journals and conferences.

The department regularly earns the revenue by testing and consultancy, and Scrutiny of structural designs. Last year the amount earned by offering consultancy and by material testing was Rs. 1.08 Lacks.

Some of the special problems for which the consultancy was offered are

1. Construction of market at Itwara, NWMC, Nanded

2.Scrutiny of structural design for ESR from Maharashtra Jeevan Pradhikaran
