Dr.Ch.PremKumar,

Ph.D

Professor & HOD- Department of CIVIL.

  • The department of civil Engineering in SACET, Chirala was established in the year 2011 with an initial intake of 60. Six batches of students nearly 300 have successfully completed their graduation so far from the department. Our strength is our faculty. We have twelve faculty members and 3 supporting staff members.

    The average experience of the faculty in the department is about 5 years. The department has eight physical laboratories viz., Concrete laboratory, Transportation Engineering laboratory, Geotechnical Engineering Laboratory, Environmental Engineering laboratory, Survey laboratory, Geology Laboratory, Hydraulic Engineering Laboratory, Computer aided design Laboratory. Our department has well established Laboratories with advanced equipment like ultrasonic pulse velocity machine, rebound hammer, total station and costing up to 9 Lakhs till now.

    Many students got placements in civil engineering core companies and IT companies. Some of the students are pursuing their post-graduation in reputed institutions in India and abroad in every batch. And the department has introduced Transportation Engineering in M.Tech. in 2015 with an initial intake 24 seats.

VISION

To become a nationally recognized center for Civil Engineering Education with effective Teaching and Learning practices.


MISSION


M1: To produce competent Civil Engineering students with ability to design, develop and problem solving skills.
M2: To produce students with ability to use modern tools along with life long learning skills.
M3: To promote entrepreneurship and soft skills.
M4: To promote industry interaction, consultancy and concern for the society.

PEO-1: Engage in gaining knowledge thru self-study, continuous education in civil engineering and other related fields
PEO-2: Imbibe concepts of engineering design and critical thinking skills
PEO-3: Ability to demonstrate problem solving and soft skills
PEO-4: Impart concepts of environment sustainability, project management and teamwork
PEO-5: Train and promote higher education and address society issues.

Engineering Graduates will be able to:

  1. Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.
  2. Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, review research literature, and analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences and engineering sciences.
  3. Design/development of solutions: Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the public health and safety, cultural, societal and environmental considerations.
  4. Conduct investigations of complex problems: Use research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to provide valid conclusions.
  5. Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources,  modern engineering and IT tools including prediction and modeling to complex engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.
  6. The engineer and society: Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the professional engineering practice.
  7. Environment and sustainability: Understand the impact of the professional engineering solutions in societal and environmental contexts, demonstrate the knowledge of, and need for sustainable development.
  8. Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics responsibilities and norms of the engineering practice.
  9. Individual and team work: Function effectively as an individual,  as a member or leader in diverse teams and in multidisciplinary settings.
  10. Communication: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as, being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.
  11. Project management and finance: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the engineering and management principles and apply these to one’s own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.
  12. Life-long learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.

PSO-1: Ability to analyze and design of infrastructure components
