The department of General Science and Humanities has highly qualified, well experienced and dedicated faculties. In engineering domain, the teaching of basic science subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Professional Communication Skill for all engineering courses plays a vital role to create emerging technocrats. The department gives the exposure of subject knowledge and skills through the regular classes, guest lectures, industrial visits, workshops and seminars. Basically, the department focuses on the student’s involvement in various activities such as engineering’s day, teacher’s day, national science day, poster presentation, technical events, sports, tree plantation, etc under the banner of First Year Students Association (FESA). The department provides platform to students under title of ‘campus for you’ activities (such as Soft Skills training, Group Discussion, Debate, general aptitude, Communication skills etc), interactive methods (such as power point presentation, models, poster presentation, NPTEL videos of certain topics etc), departmental library etc are used to increase interest of students. Parental care and counseling sessions are provided to the students by faculty members to build confidence in them. The department is striving hard to achieve excellence in academics.
