Rapid economic development and fast-track modern construction practices can trigger catastrophic structural failures. To investigate structural failures in a scientific manner, the unique and first of its kind Postgraduate program of M. Tech. Civil Engineering with a specialization in Forensic Structural Engineering is offered at National Forensic Sciences University (UGC Recognized - NAAC Accredited 'A' Grade) to civil engineering graduates. Following are the key highlights of the program: • Analysis, design and detailing of structures • Independent design studio projects to each students • Hands-on training of various design softwares • Hands-on experience of material testing and non-destructive testing • Continuous evaluation through presentations and assignments • Subject enrichment through renowned professional experts • Frequent site visits: ongoing construction/repair projects, existing structures, material manufacturing plants, etc. • Structural evaluation of existing structures • Evaluation, repair & rehabilitation of existing structures
