Preamble
In the last decade there has been rapid urbanization all over the country. It is due to constant human
endeavor to strive for a more comfortable living. This is making existing infrastructure fall short
to fulfil the demands of society. Accomplished infrastructure is required for the society in all its
domains. Civil infrastructure consists of roads, bridges, buildings, dams, levees, water &
wastewater treatment facilities, solid waste management, power generation -transmission and
communications facilities.
There is a need to train engineers who have a holistic view of infrastructure and multidisciplinary
knowledge background. A sound understanding of emerging and transformative technologies and
functioning of the infrastructure systems is essential. Existing civil engineering program is not
fully addressing this increasingly recognized need. This educational gap prompted new
engineering program with more emphasis on planning, design and execution of infrastructure
along with knowledge of civil engineering at undergraduate level. Accordingly, AICTE proposed
‘Civil and Infrastructure Engineering - a new programme at undergraduate level. Mumbai
University intends to be on the forefront with a program in ‘Civil and infrastructure Engineering
which involves the design, construction and management of infrastructure.
The faculty of science and technology resolved that to minimize the burden of contact hours, total
credits of the entire program will be of 171, wherein focus is not only on providing knowledge but
also on building skills, attitude and self-learning. Therefore, in the present curriculum, skill -based
laboratories and mini projects are made mandatory across all disciplines of engineering in the
second and third year of programs, which will definitely facilitate self - learning of students. The
overall credits and approac h of curriculum proposed, is in line with AICTE model curriculum.
Faculty resolved that course objectives and course outcomes are to be clearly defined for each
course, so that all faculty members in affiliated institutes understand the depth and approach of
course to be taught, which will enhance learner‘s learning process. Choice based Credit and
grading system enables a much -required shift in focus from teacher -centric to learner -centric
education since the workload estimated is based on the investment of time in learning and not in
teaching. It also focuses on continuous evaluation which will enhance the quality of education.
Credit assignment for courses is based on 15 weeks teaching learning process, however content of
courses is to be taught in 13 weeks and remaining 2 weeks to be utilized for Internal assessment,
revision, guest lectures, coverage of content beyond syllabus etc.
The curriculum will be implemented for Second Year of Civil and Infrastructure Engineering from
the academic year 2021 -22. Subsequently this will be carried forward for Third Year and Final
Year Engineering in the academic years 2022 -23, 2023 -24, respectively.

Incorporation and Implementation of Online Contents from
NPTEL/ Swayam Platform


The curriculum design is mainly focused on knowledge component, skill-based activities and
project -based activities. Self-learning opportunities are provided to learners. In the design process
of syllabus of ‘ C‘ scheme wherever possible, additional resource links of platforms such as
NPTEL/Swayam are appropriately provided. In an earlier design of curriculum in the year 2012
and 2016 in Revised scheme ‘A' and ‘B' respectively, efforts were made to use online contents
more appropriately as additional learning materials to enhance learning of students.
In the current design based on the recommendation of AICTE model curriculum overall credits
are reduced to 171, to provide opportunity of self -learning to learner. Learners are now getting
sufficient time for self-learning either through online courses or additional projects for enhancing
their knowledge and skill sets.
The Principals/ Heads/ Faculty members of all the institutes are required to motivate and encourage
learners to use additional online resources available on platforms such as NPTEL/ Swayam.
Learners can be advised to take up online courses, on successful completion they are required to
submit certification for the same. This will definitely hel p learners to facilitate their enhanced
learning based on their interest.

Preface
The engineering education in India is expanding and is set to increase manifold. The major
challenge in the current scenario is to ensure quality of education and employability of students.
To meet this challenge, the issue of quality needs to be addressed and taken forward in a systematic
manner. Accreditation is the principal means of quality assurance in higher education. It reflects
that, in achieving recognition, the institution or program of study is committed and open to external
review to meet specified standards. The major emphasis of this accreditation process is to measure
the outcomes of the program that is being accredited. Program Outcomes (POs) are essentially a
range of skills and knowledge t hat a student will have at the time of graduation from the program.
In line with this, Faculty of Technology of University of Mumbai has taken a lead in incorporating
the philosophy of outcome -based education (OBE) in the process of curriculum development from
Rev-2012 onwards and continu ed to enhance the curriculum further based on BE in Rev-2016 and Rev-
2019 ― C scheme.
As Chairman and Members of Board of Studies in Civil Engineering, University of Mumbai, we
are happy to state here that, the Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) for Undergraduate
Program were finalized by faculty members from different affiliated Institutes of the University,
who are either Heads of Departments or their senior representatives from the Department of Civil
Engineering. The PEOs finalized for the undergraduate program in Civil and Infrastructure
Engineering are listed below;
1. To prepare the Learner with a sound foundation in mathematical, scientific and
engineering fundamentals.
2. To motivate the Learner in the art of self-learning and to use modern tools for solving
real life problems.
3. To prepare the Learner for a successful career in Indian and Multinational Organizations
and for excelling in post-graduate studies.
4. To motivate learners for life-longing learning.
5. To inculcate a professional and ethical attitude, good leadership qualities and
commitment to social responsibilities in the Learner‘s thought process.
In addition to the above listed PEOs, every institute is encouraged to add a few (2-3) more PEOs
suiting their institute vision and mission
Apart from the PEOs, for each course of the program, objectives and expected outcomes from a
learner‘s point of view are also included in the curriculum to support the philosophy of OBE. We
strongly believe that even a small step taken in the right direction will definitely help in providing
quality education to the major stakeholders.

Rationale

Hydraulic structures are the structures designed to retain, convey, control, regulate, mix and
dissipate the energy of water. Such structures are constructed in all domains of water engineering;
primary domains being water quantity management (water supply, irrigation, hydro power, flood
control, drainage, navigation, socio -economic and recreational use), water quality management
and various transportation aspects. While the cou rse emphasizes the “WHY” aspect; e.g., design
of multi -purpose reservoirs and canal works, it also examines the “HOW” aspect of hydraulic
structures. It is only through this mindful approach that the engineer can determine the
advantages of a proposed desi gn for a specific application.
