From the great depths of the ocean to the galaxies of outer space, from the
minute human cell to the top of the tallest building, the engineering profession
can get you there and with good earnings too.
Basically, engineering is the
application of the principles of science in solving problems.
It is our aim to make you a professional - innovative, confident and ready to

Being the sole provider of excellence in engineering in the country, the College of Engineering develops its education and research in close collaboration with industry. For a total of 14 weeks, students undergo supervised work experience in industry during vacations at the end of which a report is presented. Final year students carry out individual or group projects in which they work under direct supervision of practicing engineers/ lecturers.

Examinations and continuous assessments may take the form of thesis, essays, laboratory work, assignments, written reports and oral examinations.
