The Department is actively involved in curricular, co-curricular, and extra-curricular activities that have brought to light the talents of the students and faculties.

Chemical Engineering being one of the oldest and broadest engineering discipline, plays a significant role in enhancing quality of life.

It has applications in oil and gas, plastics, energy, environment, sustainability, finance, law, biotechnology, construction and allied industries.

Our department has a team of highly qualified and experienced faculty, with good infra structure and lab facilities. The Department strives hard constantly to improve upon the quality of education, to maintain its position of leadership in Engineering and Technology.

The Department has the distinction of being the first to be recognized for COSIST and DSA programmes by UGC. The department has received support from DST-FIST, DST-PURSE, UGC- SAP and currently recognized as DST-CAS department.

With competent faculty, diverse students and established processes, the department will continue to excel moving towards our vision to be recognized as a benchmark and trend setter in Chemical Engineering. The Department strives to keep in phase with fast changing technologies through effective collaboration with several academic institutions, research organizations and industries.

I am certain that our students will prove to be an invaluable asset to any organization and retain a respectable status in the society.
