SSIT Syllabus (78) CIVIL

PREFACE
Sri Siddhartha Institute of Technology, Tumkur (SSIT), is one of the

better performing self financing Institute, offering technical education in the
state of Karnataka. The Institute was started with the objective of Entrancing
Education to reach the unreached. Recognizing our potential to grow into a
Centre of Excellence, World Bank has chosen our Institute under Technical
Education Quality Improvement Programme (TEQIP). Financial assistance
has been granted to the Institute for the advancement in academics,
development of laboratories and other infrastructures required for carrying out
research activities. In this direction the Institute has put-up solid foundation for
education and research with highly qualified faculty with a vision to groom the
leaders of tomorrow.
The Institute offers 09 undergraduate, 07 post graduate and MCA
programmes. The Institute has an annual intake of 670 students for
undergraduate programme, 126 students for Post graduate and 60 students
for MCA.
Considering our academic strength and infrastructure, Govt.Of
Karnataka, through Visvesvaraya Technological University(VTU), has
accorded us AUTONOMY.
Recognition us asa better performing Autonomous institute, UGC
Conferred us the Deemed-to-be University Status in 2009. We are now a
constituent college of Sri Siddhartha Academy of Higher Education (SSAHE).
Deemed University system provide flexibility to institutes to have their
own curriculum and syllabus. Taking this opportunity the Institute has designed
curriculum and syllabus in consultation with Industries and premier academic
institutions to ensure that the young Engineers graduating from the Institute are
industry ready.
The academic year is divided into two main semester ( odd semester
September to December, Even semester: February to May ) and a summer
semester. The students are required to follow certain procedures and meet the
academic requirements of each semester as stipulated from time to time by the
Academic council.
Committees are formed at various levels for monitoring students
performance . The Academic Performance Evaluation Committee (APEC) and
Departmental Performance Evaluation Committee (DPEC), examines the
pace and the Learning capabilities of the students based on their overall
performance & academic record and counsels them.
SSIT, takes atmost care to ensure that students get the best and
become outstanding engineers.
This booklet gives comprehensive information on the suggested
course work for the Final year.
