Rationale
Today, more than 54% of the world’s total population lives in urban areas. It is projected that urbanization
will continue in the coming years, raising the urban population to 6.0 billion people by 2045. The significant
increase in urban population will put awesome load on urban infrastructure which results in increasing the
demand for energy, mobility, water, and other urban services in cities. So, cities have to become smarter in
provision of urban services. Also due to the global awareness about negative environmental impacts of
pollution, cities are feeling more pressure to improve their environmental performance, while imp roving
their level of services. Increasing demand for sustainable, inclusive, reliable and efficient urban service puts
our urban infrastructures under a huge pressure. But digitalization provides a powerful tool to address these
issues and create a paradi gm shift in our concept of cities. Due to this novel nature of smart cities, it is
important that policymakers, urban managers and other relevant actors be prepared to understand and
address the challenges that the transition will bring about. This course will provide the basic principles that
to consider for a successful transition into a smart city.

Rationale
Smart City projects involve great technical complexity, and require a wide diversity of skills to control and
monitor them. Project Management would be an integral part for smart infrastructure and cities. Like other
complex infrastructure projects; smart city projects are subjected to risk and uncertainties leading to huge time
and cost overrun. Managers are faced with the problem of putting together and directing large temporary
organizations subjected to constrained resources, limited time, and environme ntal uncertainty. Project
management plays an important role in developing the Smart Cities. It has grown in response to the need for a
managerial approach that deals with the problems and opportunities of modern society. It provides the technical
and mana gerial competency, communication and decision making necessary to meet the challenges of complex
activities. Application of modern project management tools would ensure more collaboration, communication
flow and much flawless implementation of Smart City p rojects. Modern project management concepts of
application of Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) would reduce the co -
ordination problems and ensure much higher probability of successful completion of the projects with in
stipulated time and cost frame

Objectives

1. This course is designed to give exposure to project management tools and techniques applicable for
planning, controlling and monitoring of Smart Infrastructure and Cities.

Rationale
The smart city infrastructure is the introductory step for establishing the overall smart city framework and
architecture. The scope of these cities is mainly limited to construct a technology park converting the industrial
real estate to state -of-the-art information technology using the evolution in the telecom and IP networks including
insignificant asset management automation system. Urbanization is not only associated with economic
development but over the time it started aspiring people to better quali ty of life. Cities are seen as solutions for
boosting economy, generating employment, creating skills, providing better health services and many more
things. However, the state of urban service delivery in India’s cities and towns is far poorer than is des irable for
India’s current income levels. Considering that the Indian economy has been one of the fastest growing economies
in the world for some time, and aspirations and standards are raising, the current state of service delivery is simply
unacceptable. Moreover, a successful city cannot operate efficiently in isolation from its environment. It must
balance social, economic and environmental needs. Smart Cities focus on their most pressing needs and on the
greatest opportunities to improve lives. They ta p a range of approaches – digital and information technologies,
urban planning best practices, public private partnerships, and policy change to make a difference.

The introduction of Smart urban technologies into legacy infrastructures has resulted in numerous challenges
and opportunities for contemporary cities and will continue to do so. Over the past few years, advances in the
Information and Communica tion Technologies (ICTs) have significantly challenged the traditionally stable
landscape of urban infrastructure service provision. This has resulted in increasing interest from both
technology vendors and public authorities in the transition of cities to wards so -called “Smart Cities”. Although
such “Smart technologies” can provide immense opportunities for citizens and service providers alike, the ICTs
often act as disruptive innovators of urban infrastructure service provision.

Rationale
Land law is important in relation with the Infrastructure Engineering students. This will familiarize the students with
the acts and codes that are applicable as per actual conditions in the field. The course deals with the overall knowledge
of the central and state acts and rules. Land law is the form of law that deals with the rights to use, alienate, or exclude
others from land. In many jurisdictions, these kinds of property are referred to as real estate or real property, as distinct
from personal property. Land use agreements, including renting, are an important intersection of propert y and
contract law. Civil and Infrastructural Engineers need to have a working knowledge of the land laws that affect their
work and that will enable them to comply with local, state & national regulations; understand the boundaries of their
personal and p rofessional liability; negotiate contracts; protect their intellectual property; develop a relationship with
a law firm that understands the engineering business.
