- Civil Engineers convert complex ideas
into realities. They help in making innovative structures in the
world.Civilians are in fact the true nation builders Considered a
pioneering branch of engineering, Civil Engineering is the art and
science of designing the infrastructure for a society. Civil Engineers
are involved in every aspect of community infrastructure, housing and
constructions.
Civil Engineers are involved in three areas of activity, namely, Designing, Construction and Maintenance. They contribute to design and construction of bridges, tunnels, roads, railways, airways, dams, pipelines and major buildings. In addition,Civil Engineers safeguard the environment against pollution of air, land and water, by implementing proper treatment techniques and managing the natural resources for future generation. If you are fascinated by the great structures and amazed by the way they are built, then a degree in Civil Engg. is a must for you. A Civil Engg. student at AJCE is trained with the skill of building the world with proper attitude, love and enthusiasm and provided with a life style in harmony with environment.
The history of Civil Engineering can be traced back to the beginning of civilization when man started building huts for living and invented wheel for transport. Over the years, this field evolved into a branch of engineering which involves the application of physical and scientific principles for solving problems of the society. Civil engineering is a wide ranging profession, including several separate specialized sub-disciplines, its history is linked to knowledge of structures, materials science, geography, geology, soils, hydrology, environment, mechanics and other fields.
Civil Engineers play a very important role in improving the living standards of a society in the form of structural engineers , transportation engineers, water resource and environmental engineers, hydrologists, geologists and geotechnical experts.
