Civil Engineering Department

HISTORY OF THE INSTITUTE:

M. S. Ramaiah Institute of Technology was started in 1962 by the late Dr. M.S. Ramaiah, our

Founder Chairman who was a renowned visionary, philanthropist, and a pioneer in creating several

landmark infrastructure projects in India. Noticing the shortage of talented engineering

professionals required to build a modern India, Dr. M.S. Ramaiah envisioned MSRIT as an institute

of excellence imparting quality and affordable education. Part of Gokula Education Foundation,

MSRIT has grown over the years with significant contributions from various professionals in different

capacities, ably led by Dr. M.S. Ramaiah himself, whose personal commitment has seen the

institution through its formative years. Today, MSRIT stands tall as one of India’s finest names in

Engineering Education and has produced around 35,000 engineering professionals who occupy

responsible positions across the globe.

HISTORY OF DEPARTMENT:

The Civil Engineering Department was started in the year 1971. Master program M Tech in

Structural Engineering was started in the year 1984. Another milestone was achieved in the year

1994; the department was recognized as Research Center. Over four decades the department has

carved its niche in the areas of academics, research, consultancy, collaborative projects, and

publications. The department was awarded distinction of 5 years of accreditation by NBA when it

was evaluated for third time. Over 12 research scholars have been awarded Ph.D. degree and more

than 18 research scholars are pursuing Ph.D. and M.Sc. degree in Civil Engineering. Over 250

technical papers in the reputed journals and conferences are the outcome of active research at the

department. The Department holds a patent for Total Replacement of Sand in Concrete by Pond

Ash (Patent No 244063). The department has been actively involved in conducting conferences,

workshops, FDP’s, Site Visits, Project Tours and several students related programs to provide a

platform for sharing and spreading the latest developments in the field of Civil Engineering.
