Lab Facilities for Department Of Civil Engineering Students
Ever since its inception, the Civil Engineering department has realized the importance of in-house laboratories and has given priority to develop the necessary facilities. As a result, PCIU became one of the private university in Bangladesh to provide complete in-house laboratory facilities in all branches of Civil Engineering. Some of the experiments performed in these laboratories have been developed within the department itself. PCIU Department Of Civil Engineering have Engineering Materials Lab, Fluid Mechanics Lab, Surveying Lab, Transportation Engineering Lab, Structural Mechanics Lab, Geotechnical Engineering Lab, Environmental Engineering Lab, Engineering Drawing Lab, Open Channel Flow Lab, Irrigation & Flood Control Lab.Civil engineering is considered as the oldest and the most classical form of engineering education, covering diverse elds. The main objective of the Department of Civil Engineering (CEN) at PCIU is to provide and equip students with the highest level of technical competencies, social responsibility, leadership and lifelong learning skills for successful careers in civil engineering.

Lab Facilities for Department Of Electrical & Electronics Engineering Students
The science and engineering education programs at PCIU emphasize hands-on-experiences of students in labs.Labs play a central role in supporting faculty and student research. For these reasons, the university is committed to developing and maintaining well structured labs for students and faculty members. PCIU has developed one of the best lab facilities in the country for electrical and electronic engineering.Electrical engineering is the study of electric power distribution, motors and generators. It is also includes robotics, communications, circuits, electromagnetic fields and digital and analog hardware. Engineering design and applications are stressed in upper division courses. The major strengths of this program lie in its faculty, the basic philosophy on which the curriculum is built, and the outstanding laboratory facilities in the engineering building. The curriculum is based on providing a sound engineering background with small class sizes. Prospective students are urged to discuss their plans as early as possible with their high school or community college counselor. The EEE Department office is available for individual advising and encourages all students, both prospective and enrolled.

Lab Facilities for Department of Natural Science Student
A university study in the natural sciences, devoid of a practical component such as laboratory work is virtually unthinkable. One could even go so far as saying that it is extremely rare for anyone to question the necessity of laboratory work in either high school or university science curricula. Laboratory work is simply part of the science game. This article discusses the problems concerning the use of the laboratory as didactic tool in the educational process, the premises underlying its use in science education and different approaches to its implementation as described in recent literature.
Lab Facilities for Department Of Fashion Design and Engineering Students

Overall it was a very good learning experience and the students, acquisitioned practical knowledge about the Court & get experience.
Alumni
Students, past and present, are what any university should be all about. Faculty and staff are vital as well, but students are unique in that they will forever fill a role—whether they are current students or long graduated. It would be easy to lose track of most graduates after they embark on their various careers, but doing so would be a huge mistake on any university’s part.
Why? They create the university’s reputation, which relies in large part on how successful graduates are in the real world. This process is self-feeding as well. If a school becomes well known for producing graduates that are intelligent, innovative, and effective in their fields, then its reputation will grow. New graduates will have better job prospects because they went to a well-known school, and the process will continue.
