The department started functioning in the year 2006 and presently running successfully with sanctioned intake capacity of 120. The department of Civil Engineering consists of well-qualified Faculty Members (passed out from NIT, IIT, JU, IIEST Shibpur), efficient Technical Assistants, Laboratory Attendants and Departmental staff members. The department possesses very modern and well-equipped laboratory facilities like: Concrete technology laboratory, Geotechnical engineering laboratory, Survey practice laboratory, Highway engineering laboratory, Environmental engineering laboratory, Engineering geology laboratory and Computer laboratory etc. It is furnished with important instruments like: UTM, SPT apparatus, CBR instrument, Tri-axial and Marshal Stability testing machine, Total station and Digital theodolite etc. Over the years, the department has proved its potential in the Institute. Students get well-opportunity to learn core civil engineering subjects, which are reflected by their satisfactory results in the University. They are placed in reputed companies like L&T, Simplex, CES, DCPL, Bridge & Roof etc. Some of them opt for higher studies by cracking GATE and other PG & Ph.D exams. At the same time, a good number of students have been able crack PSC, SSC, IES, MES and other Govt. and PSU exams.
