Department of Civil Engineering:

Brief about the Department:
The Department of Civil Engineering was established in 1959, along with the setting up of the
institute, that is, REC Warangal. The Department offers an undergraduate and eight post-
graduate programs in addition to Ph.D. The Department has highly committed faculty who are
well qualified and are members of several national and international policy making and advisory
bodies including the BIS.
The Department is a recognized QIP center since 1978, to offer Ph.D programs to faculty of
other institutes. The Department is known for its cutting-edge research and believes in
disseminating the knowledge through publishing in highly reputed journals and patenting the
research work.
The Department maintains very good industry-institute linkages. Most of the students are
placed in reputed companies, Government organizations and Higher Educational Institutes in
India and abroad. The alumni who are important stake holders of the Department, actively guide
and provide valuable inputs. They constantly peer review the syllabus and curriculum to make
students industry ready.
The Civil Engineering Department, apart from Teaching and R&D, also does enormous amount
of consultancy, which adds up to the institutional internal revenue generation and involves
faculty and students in challenging field problems. There are six centers of excellence in the
Department and most of the laboratories have state of the art equipment.
The faculty of the Department are actively involved in sponsored projects and have prestigious
projects like-SPARC, BRICS, IMPRINT, DST, SERB, DBT, ARDB to name a few. The
Department takes pride in having conducted the highest number of GIAN and SPARC
programs.
The Civil Engineering Department has MoUs with highly reputed organizations like NAAC,
NCCBM, WALAMTARI, SCCL, INVENTA, PSI, among others and has collaborations with
several foreign universities and companies such as – Texas A&M, NCAR-Colorado, PTV Group
Germany, etc.
