- With the rapid urbanization in India, the pace of new emerging civil construction projects has also increased. This calls for the development of new infrastructure with specific knowledge about construction related design, planning, management, technology and activities.
With a view to meet the upcoming challenges and requirement in this area, Ahmedabad Institute of Technology introduced the branch of Civil Engineering from the academic year 2012 that focuses on the various aspects and parts of Civil Construction.
We offer a four year Undergraduate program, offering degree of Bachelors of Engineering in Civil Engineering in affiliation with Gujarat Technological University with a current intake of 120 students, which was 60 till 2013. We also have collaboration with Gujarat Institute of Civil Engineers and Architects (GICEA), thus providing students the advantage of using its library and attending the seminars without any fee.
