ME Civil Engineering

Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering

ME Civil Engineering or Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering is a Post-Graduate Civil Engineering course. Civil Engineering is a professional degree course that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including works like roads, bridges, canals, dams, and buildings. The planning part of the course involves site investigation, feasibility studies, creating solutions to complications that may occur, and the actual designing of structures. 

The Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering is two years duration course but it may be less or more from institute to institute. The syllabus for the Civil Engineering course is divided into four semesters. Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering course is being offered by most colleges due to its unique importance and wide career options.
