Nostalgia….
In the era of so-called modernization in the educational institutions, Avinashiligam University for Women stands out to be the blend of the present modern technology adoption with the undisturbed touch of cultural and ethical values. Amongst the various departments of specialization, Civil Engineering stands out to be one of it's kind.The Civil department in Avinashiligam University has not only thought us the subject matter but also has given a lot of beautiful moments to cherish. We were given the practical exposure to organize our association meetings, guest lectures and seminars. The group surveying activities not only helped us to learn total station and theodolite but also helped us cultivate team work. The curriculum is such structured that it helps in providing a concrete foundation in all aspects of civil engineering along with the elective subjects coursed such that it helps in gaining an insight knowledge of the different areas of engineering, science and management. Thesis days were truly a hands-on experimentation on the various issues faced in the field of construction and management in professional labs under the guidance of highly experienced faculty. It not only helped us in gaining a degree but ensured that we blossom as a good citizen. …………………………………Sucithra. K 2015 passed out Our college has given special courage and knowledge to explore our field. We learnt alot in the field and so we could be able to relate it with software in our projects. We were trained to indulge in the field and that made us to sustain in the field. The campus and the ambience give a peaceful atmosphere to learn. ……………………..Madhanasree.R.M 2014 Passed out
