RTU Civil Syllabus

My sister studying B.Tech Civil engineering course at Rajasthan Technical University (RTU) . she requires the syllabus of the 5th semester of the program . Will you please tell me how she can get the syllabus of the B.Tech Civil engineering course offered by RTU.

Can you provide me the B.Tech. (Civil) 4th Semester Syllabus for Rajasthan Technical University (RTU), Kota as I want to prepare for my internal examination?
