Department of Civil engineering offers a four-year degree course leading to the Bachelor of Technology in Civil Engineering.
JKLU also offers Ph.D programme with a specialisation in water and environmental engineering. The course curriculum is designed to enhance the capability of civil engineers to make them aware of cutting edge technologies along with providing the foundation of traditional concepts. A strong foundation is laid through courses on Construction Technology, Structural Engineering and Steel Structures, Geotechnical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Transportation Engineering, Water and Hydraulics Engineering and Computer Application. Besides, students are offered a variety of electives like Project Management, Geomatics, Computer Simulation, Construction equipment, and methods. The theoretical courses are supplemented by imparting practical experience through well-equipped laboratories.
The Department actively promotes curriculum development activity by updating existing courses, developing new courses and preparing resource material for teaching. The Department has several ongoing research projects and sponsored research schemes from public and private sector organizations. It undertakes industrial consultancy works as a part of its interaction with industry and also organizes seminars/symposia for professional interaction. The Department contributes to the interdisciplinary academic and research activity of the Institute
Our goals are to prepare all students with a technical background anchored in the fundamental of civil engineering together with the breath of related knowledge needed to follow a diverse career path in civil engineering and also:
Department is equipped with state of art labs where the theoretical courses are supplemented by imparting practical experience. The department has 8 major laboratories:
The planning and design of all Civil Engineering projects such as the construction of highways, bridges, tunnels, dams, etc are based upon surveying measurements. Moreover, during execution, the project of any magnitude is constructed along the lines and points established by surveying. Thus, surveying is a basic requirement for all Civil Engineering projects.
Our Surveying Lab is equipped with following experimental setup:
The Concrete Technology Laboratory in the Department of Civil Engineering at JKLU is one of the best concrete technology laboratories currently existing. The laboratory serves a wide spectrum of activities covering those related to teaching, research, development, and consultancy. The primary activities include experimental studies on different types of materials which are using in concrete and testing of concrete specimens in various exposure conditions. The Concrete Technology Laboratory also offers technical services for testing and research on the structural behavior and properties of materials.
Our concrete Lab equipped with the following experimental setup:
Welcome to the Environmental Engineering Division at JKLU. The Environmental Engineering discipline at the Department of Civil Engineering is one of the most interesting and challenging ones. The laboratory is equipped with all the instruments for air quality, water quality, and wastewater analysis, we train our graduate students to view nature with the eyes of an environmental engineer and to think and work independently. Our faculty thoroughly enjoys working. The Laboratory has sophisticated equipments to analyse pollution parameters in water and wastewater, soil, Air.
The instrument list includes:
This lab has basic fluid mechanics and hydraulics machine set-up. Fluid mechanics and Hydraulic machines laboratories have all comprehensive experimental set-ups catering to the requirements of course curriculum. The lab is outfitted with different flow measuring set-ups such as venturimeter, orifice-meter, Pitot tube etc.
The laboratory is equipped with the following experimental set-ups:
