Model Room
Model room setup in the Civil Engineering Department is a dedicated space equipped with scaled-down physical representations that facilitate hands-on learning, and visualization of various civil engineering concepts and projects. This aims to foster a deeper understanding of complex engineering principles and helps bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application within the field of civil engineering.
