Structural Engineering Division of the Civil Engineering Department, College of Engineering, Guindy, Anna University was established in the year 1955 with the main objective of providing higher education in the field of structural Engineering. Now the thrust is to develop the division into a centre of excellence in research, consultancy and continuing education programmes.
POST GRADUATE PROGRAMME
The M.E. degree Programmes in Structural Engineering and Construction Engineering & Management was started in the year 1955. The division has produced nearly 650 postgraduates in Structural Engineering over the last four decades.
The Department offers courses and programs at a variety of levels to address the needs of those who are interested in construction management. There is a nationally-accredited Construction Management program that prepares individuals for entry-level industry positions. The Department offers both classroom-based Master of Science in Construction Management programs that prepare individuals for middle management positions. The Department is also part of a college-wide interdisciplinary Ph.D. program in the Built Environment that provides students an opportunity for in-depth study into construction management issues. All the students are trained with software tools like Primavera & MS Project
Many of them are occupying high and responsible positions in government, private and public sector organizations in India and abroad. It has achieved this with considerable pride and excellence.
Currently Prof.Dr.Samuel knight is the Head of the Division.
