Structural engineering is a specialized field within civil engineering. It’s the science and art of constructing huge, capital-intensive projects capable of withstanding the forces of nature and discharging their functions with safety, durability and economy. The field encompasses the completion of residential, commercial, educational and recreational buildings, besides bridges, stadia, ports, dams and aquaducts. A structural engineer manages technicians and workers on a project site and discharges the duties of planning and overseeing construction and/or maintenance of buildings, bridges and other structures, within budgeted periods and expenditure.
The minimum eligibily for admission into a BE/B. tech in civil engineering study programme with specialization in structural engineering is Plus Two science (physics, chemistry and maths). Entry into engineering colleges is usually on the basis of performance in entrance tests such as IIT-JEE, AIEEE or competitive state-level CETs. Among the most respected engineering colleges offering certification in civil engineering with specialization in structural engineering are the 15 IITs; BITS, Pilani; VJTI, Mumbai; Sardar Patel College of Engineering, Pune; Delhi College of Engineering and University of Roorkee.
For engineering visionaries, this is a challenging and inviting career. Moreover with the use of advanced computer technologies and invention of new materials, future developments will be very exciting.
