Civil Engineering at IIIT Hyderabad (2019)

One of my cousins is a recent graduate from Manipal Institute of Technology (MIT) and mentions that the department of Civil engineering is among the oldest departments of all. Here are some factors that you should know about it.

  • Alongside the newer faculty members, who are both professional and easy-going, the institute also has old faculty members who are well experienced as well. However, at times, they can be quite strict too.
  • The present HOD of civil engineering is moreover admirable as well. My cousin states the same because he sat for one of his classes.
  • He mentions that the HOD is rather supportive and dynamic. He is always willing to be of help if any student needs it for their further studies.
  • Professors of this department keep maintaining their decorum by all means. But, the placement stats of civil engineering has unfortunately not been great in most of the institutes nonetheless.
