Program Overview

Masters of Engineering in Civil (Structural Engineering)

The Master in Structural Engineering is a specialized postgraduate program designed to help students understand the principles and practices of structural engineering. The program typically focuses on the analysis and design of structures, preparing students to tackle the complexities of modern engineering challenges.

The curriculum usually includes a blend of core theoretical subjects such as the theory of Elasticity and Elasticity and Elastic Stability, Structural Dynamics, Finite Element Method, and the Theory of Plates and Shells. The major elective subjects include Advanced Prestressed Concrete Structures, Advanced Numerical Methods, Analysis and Design of Multi-storied Buildings, Advanced Design of Concrete Structures, Disaster Management and Mitigation Techniques, Earthquake Engineering, Design of Green Buildings, Project Management and Research Methodology, etc.

The program incorporates hands-on learning opportunities, industrial/site visits, internships, and placements. Students can engage in research projects addressing current issues in structural engineering, such as disaster-resistant design, advanced materials, and smart structures.

Graduates of the M.E. in Structural Engineering are well-equipped for careers in various sectors, including: Consulting Firms, Government Jobs, Construction Companies and Research Institutions etc.
