Civil Engineering
The Civil Engineering Programme at M.H. Saboo Siddik College of Engineering (MHSSCE) was established in 1984 under the name Construction Engineering and was rebranded as the Civil Engineering Department in 2001 to reflect a broader academic and professional focus. Accredited by the National Board of Accreditation (NBA) and part of a NAAC-accredited institute, the department has continuously evolved to meet industry standards and academic excellence. In keeping with this commitment, it will be introducing a postgraduate program in Construction Management starting from the academic year 2025, further enhancing opportunities for advanced learning and specialization.
The Programme envisions “To pioneer developments in Civil Engineering by creating professionals with global competence,” and is driven by its mission to produce morally responsible, highly competent technocrats equipped with strong leadership qualities. It comprises a team of 10 qualified faculty members—1 professor, 1 associate professor, and 8 assistant professors—most of them are doctorate. The department has a strong legacy of academic excellence, with students frequently earning university ranks and participating in technical events at national, state, and intercollegiate levels. Alumni of the department occupy prestigious positions in reputed organizations and continue to maintain close connections with their alma mater. To promote academic engagement and showcase departmental accomplishments, the department publishes TAMEER, a biannual newsletter that highlights activities, achievements, and technical contributions from faculty and students alike.

Structural Engineering Laboratory
Location: Main building,1st Floor, room no 103
Scope:
No theoretical stress formulation is acceptable howsoever mathematically may be it correct, unless validated by the experiments. The knowledge of experimentation, instrumentation, interpretation of experimental data to arrive at precise conclusion needs practice and skills. The experimental set up and the loading pattern are chosen so as to match with the assumptions in the derivations and thus reducing the errors in experimental and theoretical results. The various types of loads like axial, transverse for shear and flexure, torque for torsional shear are applied on the IS standard test specimens to study the requisite types of stresses and deformations and correlate it to the theory and understand the basic difference among them.
The best way to learn Solid Mechanics is through the experimental observations and translating it to the analytical model.
Major Equipment’s :
- Universal Testing Machine (UTM)
- Hardness Testing Machine (Rockwell and Brinell)
- Torsion Testing Machine
