I feel pleasure in introducing you to the Department of Applied Sciences which plays a vital role in an engineering Institute. The Department includes: Departments of Applied Physics, Applied Chemistry, Applied Mathematics, and Humanities.
With the pace of innovation and technological advancement accelerating very fast, engineers hold the key to the next generation’s technical wonders. A transformative experience in the class room and laboratory will have a great impact on engineering students. Hands-on practice and experience in conducting experiments in well developed laboratories with the help of experienced faculty give stimulus to the students.
The students with strong scientific base and armed with technical knowledge, imagination, communication skills and understanding of the social and human context of their work will make their future very bright. It also results in making good human being with patriotism.
There is a difference between engineers being qualified for routine design, engineering sales, other applied specialties and getting strong technical qualifications.
There is tremendous scope for engineers with strong science background in our country, specially in space, defence, device manufacturing, automobiles etc. Running metro without driver in India is not a dream but reality now. This requires knowledge of all the streams of engineering and basic science of materials, sensors and actuators. Our country is emerging very strong in its technological base and we have to shape our engineers through constant learning, providing latest inputs to them to cope up with rest of the world in all engineering streams.
The Department of Applied Sciences strives for enhancing knowledge, critical thinking and strengthening the problem solving capability of the students. Our laboratories are very spacious and well equipped. It motivates the students to learn their experiments with great interest, and inculcate habit to learn about some experiments beyond their syllabus. We have highly qualified and experienced faculty, most of them are doctorate, who have rich R&D as well as teaching experience. Some of them had worked with country’s top R&D institutions e.g. DRDO, CSIR, IITs. We guide the students and enrich them with feeling of opportunities in their area of engineering in India and abroad. The science is an essential part of engineering as we know that the science of today is the technology of tomorrow which leads to new systems and products. I wish all my students to do very best in every sphere of life and serve the humanity with their skill and knowledge.
