of the curriculum.
The University follows the Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) advocated by UGC. The Curriculum has
a flexible structure with lot of flexibility available to students to choose their electives (Program as
well as Open) in the Semester based teaching, evaluation and grading/assessment pattern advocated
in the CBCS.

essential Courses for all students in the University.
In addition, MOOC platform edX, etc. is being used by each school to ensure international relevance
of the curriculum. Numerous conferences are arranged with International partners to discuss the
evolution of the curricula.
A. Engineering
The curriculum design for Engineering Programs is based the philosophy that aims to empower the
students with a critical thinking led approach, scientific temperament and knowledge in science and
engineering, besides also in the fields of management, to solve problems that challenge humanity. It
caters for teaching that builds critical thinking abilities, inspiring learning environment with optional
/elective content that challenges and motivates students, multidimensional options where
knowledge of science and technology is part of a broader knowledge platform. A student has the
choice of opting for many interdisciplinary Courses outside the chosen program and catering for
extracurricular dimensions promoting many other facets of campus life like student clubs etc.
In line with above philosophy, the University has aimed at creation of curriculum and teaching
practices where the traditional teacher-centric approach has been changed to largely student-centric
approach; combining the strength of face to face teaching with the power of technology enhanced
learning, laying emphasis on blended learning, attempting to introduce concepts such as problem
based learning and collaborative group learning. The curriculum is expected to combine the best
practices in pedagogy with appropriate e-learning tools to take care of the individual differences
amongst learners of various classes and intellectual calibers.
The curriculum and the pedagogic design has also been so integrated as to ensure that students are
carefully guided “how to learn” on their own. The curriculum is so designed as to ensure that along
with the minimum set of competencies in their chosen specialization, graduates also acquire generic
skills and attitudes as an integral part of their program of study. The curriculum is also designed to
ensure that the Program Outcomes (POs) as well as Program Specific Outcomes (PSOs) are addressed
adequately by the Program Curriculum. For each Course of a Program, the Course Outcomes (COs)
are formulated and then assessed continuously by the teacher concerned who is teaching that
Course.
Further, the curriculum is also based on the experience gained / studies carried out of the following
aspects:
(a) Curriculum being followed in reputed Universities/Institutions likes IITs, NITs and Central
Universities etc.
(b) Expectation of Industry,
(c) Practice based Courses, and
(d) Integrated Curriculum incorporating essentials of Courses of other disciplines as well as a larger
component of projects and provision of flexibility for slow and fast paced learning.
