Basic Engineering and Applied Sciences

About Department

Basic & Fundamental courses and principles for agricultural engineering starts with a multidisciplinary education. BEAS will offer a robust, multidisciplinary education in the areas of Basic Engineering and applied sciences programs as per fifth dean committee. This is demonstrated by the curriculum with a total load share of 41.2% in terms of credits and 54.7% in terms of subjects.

Also, a total of 7 Assistant professors with strong academic background are already engaged in various multi-disciplinary research and extension works apart from teaching. Faculty concerned with the subjects falling under department of basic engineering and applied sciences are engaged in the PG teaching too.

Research within the department will transcend disciplinary and departmental boundaries, offering a unique learning opportunity for both graduate and undergraduate students. Such a collaborative culture will help us develop the next generation of innovations in the field of Agricultural Engineering that will impact the world.

Mandate / Objectives

  • To inform and motivate students to study the fundamental aspects of engineering & science and its applications
  • To teach the subjects comes under department for UG and PG programs as per fifth dean committee.
  • To enable the students towards research, to analyze and apply mathematical and scientific techniques in engineering technology
