All about Chemical Engineering

 Vision : To become an internationally acclaimed department of higher learning to address major societal issues and solve technical challenges faced by chemical and allied industries through ecofriendly technologies. 

Mission :

 i. To inculcate students with a strong fundamental knowledge to meet the needs of a rapidly changing technological environment in process development and equipment design. 

ii. To carry out vibrant interdisciplinary research programme that can creatively shape the undergraduates and graduates to address the needs of chemical engineering profession in particular and society in general. 

iii. To develop leadership qualities to solve scientific and environmental challenges keeping in mind the safety and ethical concerns.  

Program Educational Objectives :

i. To prepare students to achieve professional engineering competence. 

ii. To acquaint with the principles of basic science and engineering and utilize them to formulate, solve and analyze engineering problems as well as to prepare them for advanced studies both in core and multidisciplinary research area. 

iii. To take initiative and demonstrate ability towards independent learning and introduce professional ethics and codes of professional practices. 

 iv. To function effectively in the complex modern work environment with the ability to assume professional leadership roles.

v. To develop effective communication skills. 

Program Outcome :  i. Function effectively as an engineering professional, individual, and member or leader in diverse technical teams. 

ii. Apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering to identify, formulate & solve engineering problems. 

iii. Design and conduct experiments individually as well as in a team. 

iv. Apply engineering techniques with modern engineering tools necessary for designing a system, component or process. 

v. Demonstrate excellence in ethical standards, safety practices, and environmental protection. 

vi. Effectively communicate through technical writings and presentations 

vii. Develop interest in multidisciplinary research activity and higher studies and engage in life-long learning process. 

Process for defining the Vision and Mission of the Department and PEO of the program :  

i. Regular interaction with the stakeholders, more frequently with employers, alumni and other institutes of higher learning.

 ii. Inclusion of courses based on industrial demand through course modification as suggested by industry experts. 

iii. Modifying the course contents as per the directives of American Chemical Society (ACS); American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) and experts from institutes of higher learning and various research organizations. 

iv. Feedback from the students. 

v. Discussion in the senate of the institute.
