Civil Engineering Department, CST

“Engineering is not only about building houses, bridges, and infrastructure, but also about shaping responsibility, teamwork, and leadership beyond structures.”

As we move into the College Councillor Election 2026-2027, we are proud to have eight capable and responsible candidates from the Civil Programme stepping forward to take on leadership roles for the College . Each of them is committed, dedicated, and ready to serve with integrity and purpose.

As we move into this election, we sincerely seek the support and votes of our CST family.

Let’s come together to strengthen student voices and build a more united and active college community.

“Every vote counts-your support truly matters. Vote for the right person!”

Guest Lecture– Expanding Knowledge in Structural Design!

The Civil Engineering faculty and students attended an insightful guest lecture conducted by Ms. Mathilde Eliane Schelker and Ms. Kunsang Wangmo Ghashi from ETH Zurich on 7th April, 2026.

The visiting researchers reached the college on 6th April 2026 and will be staying until 13th April 2026, collaborating with CST on their research project and sharing their expertise on timber structures in the Himalayan region.

During the lecture, they shared their work on timber structures, mainly bridges, explaining design, analysis, and construction in real conditions. They also showed images of different timber bridge types, helping students understand various structural forms.

The session helped students connect theory with practical applications and highlighted the importance of innovation and planning in engineering.

We sincerely thank the visiting researchers and faculty for organizing this informative lecture .
