MINOR DEGREE IN ENGINEERING PROGRAMS
Overview
With a view to enhance the employability skills and impart deep knowledge in emerging areas which are usually not being covered in Undergraduate Degree credit frameworks, AICTE has come up with the concept of ‘Minor Degree in emerging areas’.
Objectives of Minor Degree
Encourage advanced levels of study and multidisciplinary learning
Specialize in a focus area of interest
Learn new skills and methodologies about an area of interest
Enable personal creativitry and passion
Cultivate a sustaining interest in advanced education and research
Enhance professional development leading to guaranteed employment
Provide opportunity to gain recognition at the time of graduation for advanced and distinguished work
Interdisciplinary Approach of Study
Students pursuing their primary degree program in Engineering(B.E/B.Tech) have the opportunity to:
- Study one additional Minor Course in Engineering
- Enhance their interdisciplinary experince
- Get exposure to concepts and perspectives beyond their regular degree program.
After completing the additional Minor Degree Program
Students shall be able to better understand the Engineering applications in other areas of his/her interest.
