Construction Technology and Management

The fiveyear undergraduate (UG) program in Construction Technology at CEPT University is a unique engineering program focused on creative problem-solving and technological innovation in construction. It is situated within an ecosystem of allied disciplines like architecture, planning and management all of which focus on built environments. It is the only construction technology program in India that is centered on studio teaching. Small groups of students engage with real-life problems under the guidance of studio tutors. To tackle complex problems of the world today, problem solving skills need to be second nature to any working professional. The studio style of teaching inculcates problem solving, independent thinking and action-oriented approach among the students and it constitutes the bulk of the academic credits in any given semester. The studios are supported with mandatory courses, electives and skill-enhancing workshops aimed at expanding conceptual, theoretical and analytical abilities of students. The faculty in the program comprises highly experienced academicians with excellent professional and academic rigour. Apart from the full-time faculty members, visiting professors and practicing professionals from the industry regularly teach studios and courses, bringing practical experience to the classroom.>
The program further prepares students for the real world experience by placing them in professional training in various construction companies/projects and consultancy firms across India for a complete semester.
The five-year program leads to a degree of Bachelor of Construction Technology. The program provides fundamental education in building construction and opens up many avenues for students to pursue postgraduate and doctoral studies. For further studies, a construction engineer might further hone his/her skill by focusing on construction engineering, structural design, infrastructure design, or shift to allied professions such as urban planning, management, etc. Several graduate students undertake higher studies at some of the best universities in the world. We have a strong network of 1500+ alumni who are making an impact in the construction sector in India and abroad. They have risen to the highest professional levels in this field. They work as design professionals, entrepreneurs, building contractors, researchers, and construction managers for high impact corporations and construction enterprises across the globe.
