Dear Students, Faculty, and Esteemed Visitors,

A warm welcome to the Department of Science and Humanities—the place where every great engineering journey begins. We are proud to be the foundation upon which all our degree engineering programs are built, playing a vital role in establishing the core knowledge, skills, and values essential for every aspiring engineer.

Our department brings together four essential disciplines: Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and English. Think of these as the fundamental tools in your toolkit. They ensure you start your engineering education with a strong scientific understanding and the crucial communication skills needed to excel.

We’re also delighted to offer dedicated, well-equipped laboratories for Physics, Chemistry, and English. Special mention goes to our unique Language Laboratory, a facility designed specifically to sharpen your communication and soft skills. These labs transform classroom learning into hands-on experience, helping you see how concepts apply in the real world.

Our faculty team is highly qualified, dedicated, and deeply committed to your success. They do more than just teach; they inspire curiosity, encourage critical thinking, emphasize ethical values, and foster creativity. Our goal is to mentor you into becoming not just technically competent, but also responsible and well-rounded professionals.

We believe, as Swami Vivekananda once said, “Arise, awake, and stop not till the goal is reached.” With this spirit, we encourage our students to stay curious, keep learning, and strive constantly toward success.
