ADIEU 2k21

 Its already four years and the time to bid to adieu to another batch of budding engineers.

Farewell to the  2017 - 2021 batch started at 1:30pm on 24th July 2021 through the online platform WEBEX. The programme started with a welcome by Mr. Sreerath S followed by felicitation by the Head of Department, Dr. Jiji Antony. The students and teachers shared their memories together. Though this batch had the opportunity to spend only 2.5 years on the campus, to them the online classes were a fond memory in itself. A loop dance prepared by the students, fun games and a video compilation of nostalgic moments were also part of the event.

As they stop being students of the department, the department will miss their laughter and their innocent faces. But the upside is that they will continue to be a part of our hearts and be as associated with the institute in a new role - as our alumni.

We are going to miss you dear students!!!

God bless each one of you with a glorious,successful and bright future. Spread out your wings and soar to greater heights.

Geomatic Dimensions in Civil Engineering

A webinar on Geomatic Dimensions in Civil Engineering was hosted by the ASCE student chapter on 2 July 2021. The resource person was Dr. Suresh Francis, Scientist, Kerala State Remote Sensing and Environment Centre (KSREC), Thiruvananthapuram. 

This webinar was conducted as part of the MOU between the department of Civil Engineering and KSREC. During the session, Dr. Suresh Francis discussed the very basic concepts of Remote Sensing and GIS and the technology used to capture and interpret the data. He stressed on the fact that the future is GIS and its applications in Civil engineering are immense.  The session saw more than 100 participants from the different batches of the department. The program was coordinated by Ms. Abhiya Abbas Mundol, Assistant Professor.

Dr. Suresh also discussed in the detail, the implications of Geospatial technologies in day to life, and how it can impact the life of everyone in the near future. The talk also shed light into real time data analytics and how it is being utilised in various technologies around us. The various possibilities of Big Data, AI, IOT, Cloud, Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, Edge Computing etc in Civil Engineering were explained in detail. Dr. Suresh also shared information pertaining to some of the projects undertaken by KSREC for various departments of the Government of Kerala and how geospatial technology is used for decision making at Government level. The session was packed with information and touched upon almost every aspect of the application of Geospatial Technologies.
