Message from the Head of Department

Dr. Charanjeet Singh
Dr. Charanjeet SinghHOD

Engineering has always been about turning an idea into something that works. That could be a bridge, a machine, an electronic system, a manufacturing process, or a technology that solves an everyday problem.

At the School of Engineering, our focus is to give students the opportunity to experience this process themselves. We want students to spend time in laboratories, work on projects, understand how things work, interact with industry, and learn from practical experience—not just prepare for examinations.

I also believe that an engineering degree should help students become independent thinkers. There will be problems for which there is no ready-made answer. Learning how to approach such problems with patience, creativity, and confidence is an important part of becoming an engineer.

Our faculty will work closely with students to develop their technical abilities while also encouraging teamwork, communication and professional responsibility. My message to our students is simple: stay curious, keep experimenting, and never be afraid to ask why.
