MTech (Earthquake Engineering)
MTech in Earthquake Engineering is a postgraduate program that focuses on the study of earthquakes, their causes, effects, and methods to mitigate their impact on structures and infrastructure. Students learn about seismic design principles, structural dynamics, earthquake-resistant construction techniques, and risk assessment. The program equips students with the knowledge and skills to analyze, design, and retrofit structures to withstand seismic forces.
Earthquake Engineering
Earthquake Engineering is a branch of engineering that deals with the analysis, design, and construction of structures and infrastructure to withstand the damaging effects of earthquakes. It involves studying the behavior of buildings, bridges, dams, and other structures under seismic forces and developing methods to mitigate the impact of earthquakes on human-made structures. Earthquake engineers aim to create resilient and earthquake-resistant structures to protect lives and property during seismic events.
