Two Year Post Graduate Research Programme in

Engineering of Infrastructure & Disaster Mitigation (Buildings / Roads) CBRI - CRRI

Preamble With the initiative of Government of India on liberalization, globalization and privatization boom in the construction industry has come to this country. In the last few years the country has seen the construction of golden quadrilateral in the road sector and massive development in the housing sector. The east – west corridor in the road sector is further facilitating the movement of traffic and the goods from one end of the country to the other. With huge shortage of housing in all the economic sectors and the importance attached to the growth and development of the housing sector in the country it is expected that the country is going to see a new horizon in the housing industry in near future. The concept of affordable housing is fast catching up in the country. Recognising the importance of both housing and roads, the two prime infrastructure required for the growth of the country, the Central Building Research Institute, Roorkee (CBRI) and the Central Road Research Institute, New Delhi (CRRI), two prime laboratories of CSIR is jointly offering the two year PG research course on “Engineering of infrastructure and Disaster mitigation (Buildings / Roads)”. The theme of disaster mitigation fulfills adequately the requirement of mitigating the risk of earthquake and landslide which often destroys the infrastructures and creates havoc. The country has seen many such disasters in the past. The multidisciplinary expertise required to tackle such situation are all available in these two institutes and the course is designed to impart practical training to the students on these themes. Thus the course is a perfect blend of both theory and practice. Drawing from the rich experience of scientists working in both the laboratories the course is designed to offer the participants sound theoretical knowledge and practical site experience. Such a unique opportunity is not available anywhere in the country. The program is of two years duration. The first semester is common for students of both the disciplines (buildings and roads). From the second semester the course bifurcates to its specialization and will be offered in the respective campuses of CBRI, Roorkee and CRRI, New Delhi. Adequate hostel facilities both for the girls and boys are available in the campus. Students will get handsome amount of fellowship for their sustenance.

Number of Seats in the Programme The total number of seats available is 15 (Fifteen). 10(Ten) seats for the discipline of Building and 5 (Five) for the discipline of Road. Admission Process and Eligibility for Admission Engineering graduates in Civil engineering. Please see the CSIR website, http://www.csir.res.in/, for more information.

Fellowship Please see the CSIR website, http://www.csir.res.in/, for more information. Programme Fee Structure Please see the CSIR website, http://www.csir.res.in/, for more information. The fees/charges need to be deposited before the start of every semester. For NEFT bank transfer, please transfer the amount to the saving account number 30269847968 of Director, CBRI, SBI, Roorkee (IFSC code – SBIN0010635) with appropriate narration statement. In case of Demand Draft, please get it issued in favour of “Director CBRI” payable at Roorkee, and post it by speed post or registered letter to “Director, CBRI, Roorkee, Uttarakhand Pin - 247667” with your name written in pencil on the reverse side of the demand draft. Important Dates Please see the CSIR website, http://www.csir.res.in/, for more information. The detailed programme calendar will be made available before the start of each semester. Evaluation Procedures and Grading Scheme The two-year programme is made up of 4 semesters with continuous internal evaluation and a semester-end examination for all courses. Letter grades will be awarded for each course reflecting the student’s proficiency and instructor’s expectation. The grades and their description along with their equivalent numerical values, where applicable, are as follows:

GRADE POINTS REMAR GRADE POINTS REMAR A 10 Outstanding B+ 9 Excellent B 8 Very Good C+ 7 Good C 6 Satisfactory D 5 Fair E & F - Reappear I - Incomplete

Performance of the student will be evaluated by two indices, SGPA and CGPA. These will be calculated as follows: SGPA = {Sum of (Course credit * Numerical value of course grade)} / Total course credits earned in the semester CGPA = Cumulative points scored in all passed courses / Cumulative credits earned A student needs to have a SGPA of over 6.0 (in each of the first and second semesters) and a CGPA of over 6.5 (at the end of the second semester) for continuing beyond the first year. The time period for the PG research programme is 2 years. Extension beyond this period for completing the courses will be decided on a case by case basis.

Weightage of marks during the semester There will be one mid-semester and one end semester examination. Before and after the mid-semester examination there will be two class tests. The end semester examination will have 50% weightage. The mid semester examination will have 20% weightage and the two class tests will have 10% weightage each. The balance 10% weightage will be given to the seminar, tutorial, general discipline etc.
