Course Objectives:
Basic engineering principles in engineering education are not totally independent and
they go along with the principles of chemistry.
It is a well-known fact that the application of principles of chemistry emerges into
technology.
Hence, a broad knowledge of chemistry is essential for the
undergraduate students of engineering in any branch.
The present syllabus is designed by keeping everything related to the role played by
chemistry in the field of engineering.
Learning Outcomes:
The objectives of this course will have the following outcomes:

particular boilers is to be thoroughly understood. The various boiler troubles
encountered and the remedial measures will help the students especially when they
want to set up an industry of their own. A lot of work is being done on purification of
brackish water and hence one is supposed to be informed of the technology of
purification of sea water.
Conducting polymers are replacing metals in the field of technology and hence it is
essential to know the mechanism associated with conducting polymers.
Electrochemistry and electrochemical energy systems provide an insight into the
electrical world that includes power generators, battery systems and electrical sensors
that control various systems.
Corrosion, the global problem can well be understood so that the contribution of the
undergraduate engineers in terms of protecting metals can always be enhanced in the
field of Research and Development.
Any branch of engineering student requires analytical skills in handling various
machines, instruments, apart from understanding the mechanism involved.
Spectroscopy is such an analytical area that it imparts excellent knowledge of
analytical work thereby it will provide broad path of understanding of any method
that is taken up for study.
