B.E. – Electrical & Electronics
Electrical Engineering is one of the earliest to start among the core subjects. The structure of the course has undergone a face-lift with the introduction of subjects from Computer Science and Electronics Engineering streams. Thus students in Electrical Engineering have the flexibility to broaden their horizons in electronics or software related industries apart from the core related fields. For example, signal processing and communication theory related to mobile technology need signal processing, robotics require control theory, as well as programming skills and integrated circuits, need VLSI techniques. Thus the Electrical Engineering stream is designed to provide you with several options to choose from for your later years. Electrical Engineering uses mathematics, electronics, computing techniques, and physics to solve real-world problems.

B.E-Industrial and Production Engineering
industrial and Production Engineering (IPE) is an interdisciplinary engineering discipline that includes manufacturing technology, engineering sciences, management science, and optimization of complex processes, systems, or organizations. It is concerned with the understanding and application of Engineering Procedures in Manufacturing Processes and Production Methods. Industrial Engineering dates back all the way to the industrial revolution, initiated in the 1700s by Sir Adam Smith, Henry Ford, Eli Whitney, Frank Gilbreth, and Lilian Gilbreth, Henry Gantt, F.W. Taylor, etc. After the 1970s, industrial and production engineering developed worldwide and started to widely use automation and robotics. Industrial and production Engineering includes three areas: Mechanical Engineering (where production engineering comes from), Industrial Engineering, and Management Science. The main objective for people within this discipline is to improve efficiency, drive up the effectiveness of manufacturing, quality control, and to reduce cost while making their products more attractive and marketable. Industrial engineering is concerned with the development, improvement, and implementation of integrated systems of people, money, knowledge, information, equipment, energy, materials, as well as analysis and synthesis. The principles of IPE include mathematical, physical and social sciences and methods of engineering design to specify, predict, and evaluate the results to be obtained from the systems or processes currently in place or being developed. The target of production engineering is to complete the production process in the smoothest, most-judicious and most economic way. Production engineering also overlaps substantially with manufacturing engineering and industrial engineering. The concept of production engineering is interchangeable with manufacturing engineering.
