Latest Typical Curriculum Structure for Civil Engineering (UG) as per AICTE 2017

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.


Main Paper:
(a) Humanities and Social Sciences (HS)
(b) Basic Sciences (BS)
(c) Engineering Sciences (ES)
(d) Professional Subjects-Core & Electives (PC, PE)
(i) Civil Engineering (CE):
(e) Open Electives (OE):
(f) Mandatory Courses (MC):

Lab & Workshop:
BS 11: Applied Physics Laboratory I
BS 12: Applied Physics III
BS 13: Applied Physics Laboratory II
BS 15: Chemistry Laboratory I
BS 16: Chemistry II
BS 17: Elementary Biology
BS I8: Advanced Biology I
BS I9: Advanced Biology II
ES 08: Basic Electronics Engineering Laboratory
ES10: Computer Programming Laboratory
ES 11 Basic Simulation Laboratory
ES 14 Solid Mechanics & Fluid Mechanics Laboratory

For Semester: I –II:
HS, BS and ES Courses common for all Branches; Mandatory Courses;

For Semester: III-IV
HS, BS and ES Courses common for all Branches (to be continued); Also,
Mandatory Courses (to be continued, if required);
PC (Hard/Soft) Courses in two/three groups (like Electrical, Non-Electrical); Area wise Orientation; Add-On Courses;

For Semester: V-VII
PC (Hard/Soft), PE and OE Courses; Branch-wise Orientation; Add-On Courses; Seminar;

For Semester: VIII
PE and OE Courses; Project work and Dissertation, Internship, Seminar: Add-On
Courses; Final wrap-up of Programme;


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.

How to Write Civil Engineering Projects’ Report?

In almost all the prestigious engineering colleges and universities providing specialization in civil engineering, students are required to prepare civil engineering project reports in almost every semester. If not this frequently, all civil engineers need to submit at least one Project Report in four years of engineering.

Writing a report for your civil engineering project is not that difficult but it can be tricky if the student is doing it for the first time. But once the students have done it for a couple of times, it becomes easy as well as interesting job to prepare and produce a civil engineering project report.
To write an effective project report you need to understand different levels of Project Reports to start with. Here is an overview of the process of writing effective Civil Engineering Projects’ Reports:

1) Title Page

The first page of your Civil Engineering Project should cover the title. This page also contains your name, your guide’s name and your college/institute’s name. Do not forget to include:

Free Engineering Applications for Students

I have downloaded many apps related to engineering but most of them are similar and could reach the level of satisfaction which I was expecting. It’s better to refer a real book. However, after downloading dozen of apps I got the apps developed by faadooengineers for engineering. I am sharing this because I find these apps useful, and productive and want you to get benefited from the apps if you are looking for such engineering. The app touches and explains every basics of engineering with illustrated examples which make me understand better.
