What you study in B.E. in Civil Engineering
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 VGEC for the current semester-wise plan.
