Civil Engineering
About Department (B.Tech — 60 Seats)
The B.Tech programme in Civil Engineering at PRIT provides students with an advanced, four-year undergraduate education that builds on foundational concepts and prepares graduates for professional engineering practice, research and higher studies. Civil engineering is a profession that shapes the built environment — from roads, bridges and dams to buildings, water systems and urban infrastructure.
The department is equipped with modern laboratories, experienced faculty and strong industry linkages. The B.Tech programme covers advanced topics including structural analysis, geotechnical engineering, transportation engineering, environmental engineering, hydraulics, construction management and computer-aided design. Students undertake design projects, field surveys and industrial internships to gain practical exposure.
Programme Highlights
- 4-year full-time B.Tech degree affiliated to the relevant state technical university
- Industry-experienced and research-active faculty
- State-of-the-art laboratories including Surveying, Concrete, Geo-technical and CAD labs
- Mandatory industrial training and internship in final year
- Exposure to modern software: AutoCAD, STAAD Pro, REVIT and GIS
- Regular technical seminars, workshops and field visits

HOD Message
Welcome to the B.Tech Civil Engineering programme at Pemiya Rishikesh Institute of Technology. Civil Engineering is one of the most impactful professions in the world — every road you travel, every bridge you cross, and every building you enter is a testament to the work of a civil engineer.
Our B.Tech programme is designed to provide students with a rigorous academic foundation combined with hands-on practical experience. We emphasise not only technical knowledge but also critical thinking, problem-solving and professional ethics — qualities that define a successful engineer.
Our faculty members are committed to nurturing talent, guiding research and connecting students with industry through internships, projects and expert lectures. The department maintains strong ties with leading construction firms, government agencies and consultancy organizations, ensuring our graduates are industry-ready from day one.
I invite you to explore what our department has to offer, and I assure you that your four years here will be transformative — academically, professionally and personally.
