Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.

Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, research literature, and analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences, and engineering sciences.

Design/development of solutions: Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the public health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.

Conduct investigations of complex problems: Use research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to provide valid conclusion

Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools including prediction and modelling to complex engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.

The engineer and society: Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the professional engineering practice.

Environment and sustainability: Understand the impact of the professional engineering solutions in societal and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the knowledge of, and need for sustainable development.

Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of the engineering practice.

Individual and team work: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.

Communication: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with the society at large, such as, being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive clear instructions.

Project management and finance: Demonstrate knowledge understanding of the engineering and management principles and apply these to one’s own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.

Life-long learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.

Apply the principles and practices of Chemical Engineering discipline along with the mathematics and basic sciences to solve the complex engineering problems concerning the issues of environment, safety and economics.

To prepare students for a professional World in development, design, modelling, simulation, optimization and operation of chemical processes.

The B.Tech. Chemical Engineering Program is of Four year duration. Each year is called an academic year and is divided into two semesters. Thus, there will be a total of eight semesters. Each semester consists of fifteen weeks of teaching.

The teaching learning process involves theory classes of an hour duration and practical classes of two hours duration. The curriculum will be delivered through various methods including chalk and talk, laboratories, powerpoint presentations, audio, video tools, E-learning / E-content, virtual laboratories, simulations, Industry visits, seminars, workshops, projects, models, class discussions and industrial internship.

Evaluation

The assessment broadly comprises Internal Assessment (Continuous Evaluation Component) and External Assessment i.e., End Semester Examination. Each course carries 100 marks for theory with 60 marks for Internal Assessment and 40 for End Semester Examination and practical course carries additional 50 marks. The internal assessment will be through MCQ, Classroom Test, Open Book Assignment, Oral Presentation and Short Projects.

Courses

The curriculum structure is based on basic requirement courses in Chemical Engineering. The program consists of Fundamental Engineering courses / Core Courses / NPTEL Elective / Open Elective courses / Ability and Skill Enhancement Courses/ Value Added Courses.

For theory classes, one credit indicates one-hour lecture per week while for practical, one credit indicates two hours practical laboratory session per week

The Fundamental Engineering courses & Core Courses (CC) are all compulsory courses. There are three kinds of Elective Courses: Professional Elective course, NPTEL Elective courses and Open Elective courses. In addition, there are Ability Enhancement Compulsory Courses (AECC), Value-Added Courses and Skill Enhancement Compulsory Courses (SECC)

The Core Courses, Discipline Specific Electives Courses and Discipline Specific Generic Electives are of 3 or 5 Credits each. The Skill Enhancement Course, Skill Enhancement Compulsory Courses and Ability Enhancement Compulsory Courses are of 02 credits each. A student has to earn a minimum of 175 Credits to get a degree in B. Tech in Chemical Engineering.

The program offers Professional Elective courses and the students must choose from each option offered in 6th Semester and 7th Semester. Students must also choose an Open Elective Course in the 6th Semester.

Students have to take Ability Enhancement Compulsory Course, Industrial Internship in every semester from 1st to 6th Semester. This is compulsory for every student undergoing BTech Chemical Engineering.
