B.Tech. in Civil Engineering (GIS and Remote Sensing) at Karunya University

Karunya University, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, offers B.Tech. in Civil Engineering (GIS and Remote Sensing) as a 4-year undergraduate degree. The total fee on record is ₹8.79 lakh – ₹14.65 lakh, which works out to about ₹2.2 lakh a year.

Expect to spend most of your time on structural analysis, surveying, geotechnical and transportation engineering, and construction management.

Karunya University is a other institute, founded in 1986. This page brings together what is on record for this course at Karunya 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 Karunya University for the current semester-wise plan.

The fee figures on record for this course are below. Fees are for the whole course unless marked otherwise, and apply to B.Tech programmes at Karunya University as a group.

Colleges revise fees most years, and hostel, transport and exam charges are often billed separately. Confirm the current figure with Karunya University before you pay anything.

To get into B.Tech. in Civil Engineering (GIS and Remote Sensing), you usually need Class 12 with Physics and Mathematics, plus Chemistry, Computer Science or another technical subject; most colleges ask for roughly 45–60% in these subjects.

Admission to this kind of course is usually through JEE Main and state engineering entrance exams. Reserved-category candidates generally get a relaxation in the minimum marks. Check Karunya University's prospectus for the exact cut-off this year.

In most years, admission follows these steps:

1. Check that you meet the eligibility above and register for the entrance exam in time.
2. Take JEE Main and state engineering entrance exams and keep your scorecard.
3. Apply to Karunya University on its website (karunya.edu) or through the enquiry form on this page, and take part in counselling if a state or central body runs it.
4. Once you are offered a seat, verify your documents (marksheets, ID, category certificate if any) and pay the admission fee to confirm it.
