Innovation and leadership play a vital role in civil engineering discipline in an intense level of global competition. The role of civil engineers is crucial in building the nation. Researchers, construction managers, consultants, and construction executives are calling upon the academicians, educators, and technocrats to produce civil engineers with multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary skills with effective communication within a comprehensive economic and social framework. In order to meet the professional demands of civil engineers, formal leader development must be incorporated in civil engineering education. In this chapter, the necessity of engrafting the innovation and leadership in several domains of civil engineering education was highlighted.

The finite element method is a numerical method that is used to find solution of mathematical and engineering problems. It basically deals with partial differential equations. It is very complex for civil engineers to study various structures by using analytical method,so they prefer finite element methods over the analytical methods. As it is an approximate solution, therefore several limitationsare associated in the applicationsin civil engineering due to misinterpretationof analyst. Hence, the main aim of the paper is to study the finite element method in details along with the benefits and limitations of using this method in analysis of building components like beams, frames, trusses, slabs etc.
