Himalayan University is a other institute, founded in 2013. This page brings together what is on record for this course at Himalayan University — fees, seats, eligibility, the admission route and placements — so you can judge it before you apply.

Most B.Tech programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations (mathematics, science and programming), the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means structural analysis, surveying, geotechnical and transportation engineering, and construction management. Typical first jobs: site, structural or planning engineer, or a government engineering service. Many graduates also go on to a master's degree.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask Himalayan University for the current semester-wise plan.
