Department of English

English is an integral part of the Engineering curriculum. It serves as a bridge between the students’ years of formal study before joining Engineering and the professional life during and after Engineering that requires them to use English on a daily basis.

The Department is equipped with excellent learning facilities including a well-resourced computer aided multimedia language laboratory. In the language laboratory, the students are not only given training in conversational English with emphasis on current usage in natural situations for both academic and everyday usage of English but also in elements of English pronunciation like basic sounds, stress, intonation and rhythm patterns, which are very important to natural-sounding speech. It also includes training and practice in the presentation of prepared academic talks. The focus is not only on fluency but also on clear as well as effective communication. The course also helps students to participate actively and effectively in group meetings, academic discussions, seminars, conferences etc.
