Department of Science and Humanities comprises of the faculty of Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and English. Faculty members of the department have rich academic experience in their respective areas and research experience with outstanding research publications in reputed journals. The department is supported by three doctorates, few are about to complete Ph.D., and others are pursuing for Ph.D.
Science is the basis for all the branches of engineering discipline, which aims at providing competitive quality education to students so as to lay basic profound foundation in all the branches of Engineering. It caters to the needs of the society and carves the younger generation into good citizens, leading the budding engineers in the path of success. It follows the best teaching methodologies and imparts technical knowledge besides developing soft skills which helps the students to project themselves as a competent professionals who could independently apply knowledge to become a successful technocrat.
The department has an ongoing sponsored project run by the Principal Investigator-Dr. K. Nagashri “synthesis, structures and cytotoxicity studies on simple and mixed ligand copper(ii) complexes of certain hydroxyflavones” Sponsored by DST fast track grants scheme with a grant of Rs 29 lakhs.
The department is also in the process of having an approved research center.
