About the Department

About the Department

The Department of Humanities & Basic Sciences anchors the first-year curriculum and supports every engineering programme through mathematics, physics, chemistry and communication.

Well-equipped science laboratories and a language lab build both technical fundamentals and professional communication.

The department also coordinates value-added courses, life-skills training and the foundation that underpins later specialisation.

Vision

To build the scientific, mathematical and communicative foundation on which all engineering education rests.

Mission

  1. 01Deliver strong first-year foundations in mathematics, physics and chemistry.
  2. 02Develop English communication and professional skills.
  3. 03Instil scientific temper, ethics and analytical thinking.
Outcomes Framework

PEO's, PSO's & PO's

Program Educational Objectives (PEOs)

PSO2

Communicate effectively in English and demonstrate professional and ethical conduct.

Program Outcomes (POs)

PO1

Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.

PO2

Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, review research literature, and analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences, and engineering sciences.

PO3

Design/development of solutions: Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the public health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.

PO4

Conduct investigations of complex problems: Use research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to provide valid conclusions.

PO5

Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools including prediction and modeling to complex engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.

PO6

The engineer and society: Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the professional engineering practice.

PO7

Environment and sustainability: Understand the impact of the professional engineering solutions in societal and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the knowledge of, and need for sustainable development.

PO8

Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of the engineering practice.

PO9

Individual and team work: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.

PO10

Communication: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as, being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.

PO11

Project management and finance: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the engineering and management principles and apply these to one's own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.

PO12

Life-long learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.

Curriculum

Regulation and Syllabus
