Survey Camp


In Feb. 2017, the department of civil engineering organised a five days engineering survey camp for the B.Tech 3rd year students. The purpose of organising survey camp is to relate the class room learning with real world situations. It also provides the students an opportunity to feel the difference between theoretical knowledge and practical work and therefore develop a quality in the students by virtue of which they will be able to make a bridge between the two different aspects of engineering education. They learn the essential knowledge of different surveying techniques relevant to their professional and real work practice in civil engineering. The camp also aims to enhance the leadership and teamwork capabilities in the students. This Survey Camp was organized in Leisure Valley, Faridabad.



The events and experimental works of survey camp were divided into five-day schedule and as per the schedule field works were done. In the field works various experiments and events were performed to learn the technical aspects required in surveying. First students were divided into 05 groups, each group of 15 -16 students, which were monitored by faculties. The day wise schedule was provided to the students and faculties. During the period of survey camp student with the faculties left the institute campus at 8:45 a.m. and headed towards the camp site and returned to the college campus at 4:15 p.m. daily. From 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. students were engaged in performing exercises as in time scheduled. After successful completion of the survey camp, students were asked to compile all data and present it on drawing sheet and prepare a detailed report. 



The survey camp was a great experience for the students of Civil Engineering department. This survey camp resulted in encouraging and supporting the students in better understanding of the real works. The students were awarded of the spirit and importance of teamwork. Experiences of such survey camps are invaluable for enhancing a student understanding of the field and site work. Interaction of our students with the different peoples greatly improved their networking and personal development. The opportunity to organise survey camp was an asset for the students and it would be great to continue the same tradition.

  • To prepare a topographical map of an area showing the hills, valleys, rivers, roads, forests, etc.
