equipping them for their future careers.
In addition to doing basic engineering
courses, students enjoy a lot of freedom
in choosing courses of their interest. The
department provides the perfect platform
for its bachelors to excel in disciplines
like interaction design, human factors
engineering, usability engineering, graphic design, industrial design and
product design. The knowledge gained by
