ENGINEERING
TECHNOLOGY

Digital Technology has made engineering interdisciplinary.

Technologists with a perspective in contemporary disciplines have an
advantage over the specialists, and such graduates are sought-after by
the engineering enterprises. The First Degree Programme in
Engineering Technology is designed to provide this advantage to the
aspiring students. The programme provides a broad intellectual
foundation in the field of Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics and
Instrumentation Technology. The programme develops the relevant
engineering fundamentals, including various experiences in their
application, and introduces the important methods of technology
practice.
The same programme is adapted to suit working executives, who have
already been exposed to the world of engineering and technology
through their prior education and experience.
