Civil engineering one of the oldest branch of engineering,
in fact, it is considered to be the second oldest branch after Military
engineering and considered to be one most of the most evergreen branch of
engineering as the scope and opportunity of Civil engineers are limitless.
Well, taking about the pattern and norms of B-tech in India
(according to AICTE- All India Council for Technical Education), B-Tech (UG)
degree for Civil Engineer is completed in 4 years and is divided into 8 semesters
with 2 semesters per year, however for some Universities mainly in South India
have combined first and second semester in the first years. The following are
the latest paper to be studied by B-Tech (UG) Civil Engineering students as
released by AICTE.

If you have opted for Civil engineering, I should say that
you have made a good decision. The career opportunities and scope in developing
countries like India are expanding. All you need to do is hard work, digest
every topic and master the subject. There is no short-cut to success, your
career entirely depend on your hard work during your B-Tech. A simple tip for
preparation, start making self-notes for every paper, like basic civil
engineering notes, by referring to as many books as you can, you can also refer
civil engineering notes which are already prepared.
