Information About The Department
The Basic Sciences and Humanities (BSH) Department provides for the holistic development of FY.B.Tech students. It includes in its curriculum subjects such as – Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Basic Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Sustainable Engineering, Engineering Graphics and Programming skills. As per the NEP structure, courses like Liberal Learning, Professional Communication, and Indian Knowledge System are also conducted. Students freshly admitted to the B. Tech. courses undergo a Student Induction programme (SIP) before the actual commencement of academics, wherein students are given awareness about the parent Institute of Cummins College i.e. Maharshi Karve Stree Shikshan Samstha (MKSSS). During the Induction programme, students interact with each other as well as the faculty and get familiarized with the college surroundings. They take part in various creative activities, physical exercises and meditation. They also attend talks on Human values, Ek Bharat Shreshth Bharat, Health and Nutrition etc. They are introduced to various college activities like Student Clubs, Professional bodies, Student Chapters, NSS, sports activities and much more. Throughout the academic year, the staff imparts academic guidance, counselling and mentoring. Progress of the students is monitored on a regular basis through attendance and internal examinations. Further, the department creates a strong fundamental base so that the students are ready to take on the core Engineering courses in subsequent years.
