FROM CHAIRMAN’S DESK

The main focus of our group is to empower students with sound

knowledge, wisdom, experience and training both in the academic

level of Engineering and Technology in the highly competitive

global industrial market. Adequate care is taken to give every

student an enjoyable, well-rounded and secure educational

environment. Help and care is always at hand for the students.

Publishing half yearly departmental news letter indicates a

continuous growth of not only the department but also the faculty and students.
