Relevance of H & S Faculties for the Engineering and

This paper tries to give a graphic picture of how the I year B.E./B .Tech. syllabuses in the Institutes of Engineering and Technology is the foundation for the rest of the course content of different technical subjects they study during II, III and IV years of their professional courses. Those students who realize it at the beginning of their course orient themselves for good performance. Normally, a built-up structure and its vastness above the ground signify the strength of the foundation; similarly, in I year course of Engineering and Technology the handling of the syllabus by the members of the staff of H & S faculties is neither conspicuous nor valued enough. Moreover, in all the Engineering and Technology Colleges, I year course is named as a general course, more or less common to all branches of Engineering and Technology. In this context, it is required to show that H & S department serves in providing the foundation for the Engineering and Technical structures built subsequently.
