APPLIED SCIENCES, HUMANITY AND FIRST YEAR ENGG. SUBJECTS
The department attempts at holistic development of the first year engineering students in the endeavor of this department.
It prepares the students for higher studies and for industries by imparting fundamental facets of Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Professional Communication and first year Engg. subjects.
The courses taught by the teachers of this department lay the foundation of engineering sciences. Professional communication is of particular importance for improving the vocal and written skills of students. An understanding of Physics and Chemistry is essential to several engineering subjects like electronics, electrical engineering and engineering materials. Mathematics is undisputedly important in all fields of engineering.
Chemistry taught to fresher is of an applied nature. The environmental chemistry taught deals with the study of various chemical phenomena taking place in the environment. The object of including environmental chemistry in Engineering. Study related to water chemistry , Corrosion fuel etc forms the good foundation for Mechanical Engg. students Where as organic chemistry & Polymers Chemistry taught forms the basis for Chemical Engg students.
Physics instruction also aims at providing sound knowledge of the basics required for various branches of engg. The application of lasers in communication industry, the military and medicine is taught. The fundamentals of fiber optics is an exciting subject especially for communication engg.
Mathematics is essential for the students of the engg. Keeping in mind the specific areas of engg. where mathematical applications are essential, the 1st year students are taught the principles of engineering mathematics.
