Workshop on ‘Digital Tools for Civil Engineering Applications’ 

The Department of Civil Engineering organized a Two-Day Workshop on ‘Digital Tools for Civil Engineering Applications’ in hybrid mode under Centre for Continuing Education (CCE). The core aim of the workshop was to offer foundational training in the various software tools to the student, empowering them to enhance their engineering prowess. This workshop served as a stepping stone, providing them with the initial skills to delve further into these software applications and continue their independent learning journey

Workshop on Building Information Modelling (BIM)

A two-day workshop on Building Information Modelling (BIM) for Construction Management, held at Nirma University on February, 15th and 22nd, 2025. The workshop was jointly organized by the Civil Engineering Department, Institute of Technology, and the Institute of Architecture and Planning under the auspices of the Center for Continuing Education (CCE) at Nirma University. 50 students from both institutes participated, gaining  valuable insights into this emerging technology.

Training Program on Autodesk Revit and Autodesk Construction Cloud

To bridge the gap between academic curriculum and current industry standards in the Construction 4.0 era, the Department organized hands-on three-day workshop on 22,23 and 24th December 2025. The program was an outcome of the collaboration with Autodesk, focusing on Building Information Modeling (BIM) and the Common Data Environment (CDE). The training provided students with hands-on exposure to Revit and the Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC), tools that are currently mandated by top-tier construction firms globally.

Nirman

NIRMAN – A National Level Student Symposium is an annual flagship event of the Organisation of Civil Engineering Students (OrCES). NIRMAN has a combination of both technical and non-technical events. Technical events usually comprises of CADPlot, E-bid, B-entrepreneur, Stabilopedia, Pipe tycoon, Checkmate, Site master, Placement Guru, Model making, Poster presentation, etc. Dancing, Singing and Theatre are some of the non-technical events of NIRMAN. It is an unbreakable tradition of this symposium to invite eminent speakers every year to motivate the students and to kick start the events. The symposium caters numbers of students from various state level and national level institutes every year.

NUTech

NUTech is the annual technical festival of the Institute of Technology, organised and hosted by all the students organisation. The students of Civil Engineering Department participate actively both as participants and event management members. OrCES takes care of all the technical activities related to Civil Engineering planned under NUTech. Stabilizer, Visco-Wizard, Plot-the-Plot, The big construction theory, Absolute H2O, Civil-O-thon, Civil Hunt, GIS and Remote sensing workshop, BIM workshop, etc.

Technical Workshop

Students organise technical workshops on use of various professional software tools in the field of Civil Engineering such as STADD Pro, AutoCAD, ArcGIS, MS Project, Primavera, etc.
