The Diploma in Civil Engineering at Nepal Technical Institute (NTI), Janakpurdham, follows the CTEVT curriculum and assessment rules. The program prepares learners for site supervision, quantity work, surveying, drafting, and basic project coordination. Teaching takes place through classroom sessions, drawing practice, labs, and field exposure.

NTI aligns scheduling, internal evaluation, and practical work with CTEVT’s directives and examination calendar.

Eligibility and Duration

The course typically spans three academic years under CTEVT. Entry is based on the CTEVT entrance process and published merit lists. Applicants must meet the academic criteria set by CTEVT for diploma-level engineering programs and complete counseling and verification within the stated deadlines.

Curriculum and Practical Learning

The curriculum covers:

• Engineering drawing, building materials, concrete technology

• Surveying (chain, compass, level, theodolite, total station basics)

• Hydraulics and water supply basics, sanitation

• Soil mechanics fundamentals and estimation

• Transportation basics and construction management fundamentals

• Communication, applied mathematics, and engineering science

Practice includes drawing board sessions, surveying camps, material testing, estimation exercises, and mini projects. NTI provides labs and workshops for materials testing and surveying instruments. Field visits in and around Janakpurdham help students relate classroom learning to road works, water structures, and local construction sites. Safety, documentation, and standard measurement methods receive constant attention.

Assessment and Certification

Internal assessments, practical exams, project work, and CTEVT board examinations determine final outcomes. Attendance, lab records, and timely submission of tasks are part of routine checks. On successful completion, CTEVT awards the diploma certificate.

Career Pathways and Further Study

Graduates may work as junior supervisors, quantity assistants, lab assistants (materials), drafting assistants, and surveying assistants in contractors’ offices, consulting units, and municipal projects.
