Digital Transformation and Sustainable Engineering for Future-Ready Infrastructure
A five-day expert-led programme from the Department of Civil Engineering, ACE Engineering College, covering AI, GIS, sustainable materials and resilient infrastructure design.
About the Institute
ACE Engineering College
Established in 2007 on a 10-acre campus in the suburbs of Hyderabad along the Hyderabad–Warangal National Highway, ACE has since leased an additional 2.7 acres for hostels, staff quarters and an auditorium, and dedicated 4 acres to sports facilities. It is about 20 km from Uppal and 28 km from Secunderabad.
The college offers B.Tech programmes in CE, EEE, ME, ECE, CSE, CSE (AI & ML), CSE (DS), CSE (IoT) and IT. CE, EEE, ME, ECE and CSE are NBA and NAAC accredited, and the college holds Autonomous status for ten years from AY 2020–21.
