Civil Department
(B.Tech. / M.tech.)
About Civil Engineering
This is one of the oldest branches of engineering and also referred as Mother of all Engineering Branch. Civil engineering department was introduced in 2012. These are professional practice of designing and developing infrastructure projects. Civil engineers are concerned with designing, building and maintaining man-made products and constructions. This can include Highway, bridges, canals, dams, refinery pipelines, reservoir, airport, tunnels, buildings, and more at both small/Local scales to huge-scaled projects. Civil engineers have a vital role in building the infrastructure for communities as well as developing new real estate and maintaining existing residential, commercial, or government buildings. They ensure that every road, bridge, airport, office building, water supply and sewage plant, and mass transit system is well-planned and executed. Management skills, teamwork and communication skills are particularly important because of the large-scale nature of much of the work that they do. Civil Engineering professionals have wider career opportunities and in the developing world the demand of qualified civil engineers is increasing.

Message from HOD
On behalf of all our faculty, staff and students, I would like to welcome you to the Civil Engineering Department of Aravali Institute Of Technical Studies, Udaipur.
Civil engineers are always at work to build the safe and stable habitat for the mankind. As a Head of the department, I am extremely proud of our role in providing high quality education and hands-on experience to our students.
Right from its inception in 2012, the Civil Engineering Department has earned tremendous reputation for qualitative teaching-learning process, meaningful teacher-student interactions, state-of-the-art laboratories and well qualified faculty; positively contributing to the community through teaching, research and consultancy activities.
Students enjoy the regular industrial visits based on their curriculum and scope of the study. Our department is constantly working towards all-round skill development of our students by organizing guest lectures, seminars, workshops, conferences and career service events facilitated by national and international experts.
With a well-planned mission and untiring efforts of our highly committed faculty, staff and students, the department is striving hard to achieve its vision of becoming a center of excellence in the field of technical education and research.
Laboratories
Surveying Lab
Surveying is used to accomplish all civil engineering works or projects successfully. Surveying plays a vital role in professional practice of any civil engineer and architects. Surveying includes planning, designing and execution of any kind of construction work. The surveying lab provides the basic background to the students regarding the techniques of civil engineering. The apparatuses and instruments available in laboratory are Digital Theodolite, Theodolite, Auto Level, Dumpy Levels, Compass, Plane Tables, etc. surveying laboratory plays an important role in development of skills of civil engineers. Hence, the students are introduced to a course which performs the field exercises on their own.
Geology Lab
Geology involves the study of earth and classification of rocks & minerals. The hand specimen available in laboratory provides knowledge of geological and topographical conditions of the earth. The laboratory has a collection of various rocks, minerals, geological charts, charts of folds & faults, charts & maps of contour showing earth layers, and many more.
Geotechnical Engineering Lab
A typical geotechnical engineering laboratory helps in identifying the engineering behavior of soil. Geotechnical engineering involves the study of principles of soil mechanics and rock mechanics. Geotechnical engineering laboratory provides the knowledge about physical and chemical properties of soil and conducts experimental analyses of soil properties.
