• The B.E. Chemical Engineering Program at Ramaiah Institute of Technology aims to provide a strong foundation of scientific and technical knowledge in a state of art learning ambience. It equips the graduates with problem solving abilities, teamwork, and communication skills necessary throughout their careers. They are consistent with the following Educational Objectives:

  • PEO1: Produce graduates with a strong foundation and understanding of the fundamental principles of mathematics, science, and engineering enabling graduates to pursue their careers as practicing chemical engineers in Chemical and Allied Engineering Industries.
  • PEO2: Produce graduates who are prepared to pursue their post-graduation and research in the emerging and allied areas of Chemical Engineering and Business.
  • PEO3: Produce graduates who possess skills with professional integrity and ethics to assume professional leadership roles and administrative positions.
  • PEO4: Provide students with opportunities to integrate with multidisciplinary teams to develop & practice written and oral communication skills.

• The Programme outcomes are defined by National Board of Accreditation. The established PEO’s are in line with programme educational objectives. Engineering Graduates will be able to

  • Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.
  • Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, review research literature, and analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences, and engineering sciences.
  • Design/development of solutions: Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the public health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
  • Conduct investigations of complex problems: Use research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to provide valid conclusions.
  • Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools including prediction and modeling to complex engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.
  • The engineer and society: Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the professional engineering practice.
  • Environment and sustainability: Understand the impact of the professional engineering solutions in societal and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the knowledge of, and need for sustainable development.
  • Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of the engineering practice.
  • Individual and team work: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.
  • Communication: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as, being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.
  • Project management and finance: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the engineering and management principles and apply these to one’s own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.
  • Life-long learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.

• The Programme outcomes are defined by National Board of Accreditation. The established PEO’s are in line with programme educational objectives. Engineering Graduates will be able to

  • Acquire in-depth knowledge of material and energy balances, thermodynamics, transport phenomena, chemical reaction engineering, continuous and stage-wise operations, process dynamics and control, economics, safety and environmental aspects required to work in traditional and emerging chemical engineering areas.
  • Apply computational and simulation tools to solve chemical engineering problems, design and optimize chemical processes.
  • Design and conduct experiments, prepare technical reports including business management modules and engineering economics and demonstrate professional engineering competence.

Dr. G. M. Madhu is currently working as a Professor and Head of the Department of Chemical Engineering and the IQAC Coordinator at M S Ramaiah Institute of Technology, Bangalore, India.
