Department of Applied Sciences and Humanities

About Department
Department of Applied Sciences and Humanities is one of the serving departments of the Institute. The Department strives to impart excellent quality education in the area of Applied Sciences (Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Humanities i.e., Communication Skills and Management) for the future technocrats of all streams. The Department was established in 2002 since the inception of Institute of Engineering & Emerging Technologies, Baddi. Since then the department has been running to support the B.Tech Programme. The exponential growth of the department is itself a testimony of sincere efforts being put in by faculty members of the department.

APPLIED MATHEMATICS
Applied Mathematics division caters to the instructions in basic courses in Applied Mathematics for all the streams of this Institute. This section offers courses to undergraduate and postgraduate students of various disciplines.
APPLIED PHYSICS
The Applied Physics spans Engineering and Physics in which fundamental physical principles provide a sound base for all engineering students so that these principles can be used by them to address research issues of technological importance.
APPLIED CHEMISTRY
Applied Chemistry division shoulders the responsibility of teaching Chemistry to all the engineering students. This subpart of Applied Sciences is providing a basic knowledge of Applied Chemistry and Environmental Engineering to all branches of B.Tech.
COMMUNICATION SKILLS
Communication & Professional skills in English make an integral part of the Engineering Curriculum. In the today's world of globalization & competition in an international market, the need of command over English Language & polished communication skills is highly felt. Therefore this subject fulfills the need of the hour. The faculty of English is highly skilled at motivating and inspiring the students.

It prepares our students to face the world with required confidence & grit.
OBJECTIVES OF TEACHING COMMUNICATION SKILLS
  • To improve the students fluency and accuracy in English as much as possible during the period of instruction.
  • To develop the students ability to improve their existing skills by using effective communication strategies throughout the instruction.
  • To provide an orientation to reach the expectation of the university and the faculty both inside and outside the classroom.
  • To prepare students to become more confident and active participants in all aspects of their undergraduate programs.
MANAGEMENT
Management faculty has also joined us with the purpose of providing graduate students in science and engineering programs with basic management skills including project planning, project management, personnel management, functional business disciplines, strategic planning and management of technology development & innovation. Students will develop an understanding of the basic financial tools needed to develop business proposals and successfully manage scientific projects in public and private work sectors.
