ENGINEERING FOUNDATION COURSES

Electrical engineering deals with the study of electricity, electronics & electromagnetism.

Electrical engineers analyse & evaluate electrical devices & its application varying from simple voltmeter to complex designs. They play a major role in production & distribution of power. In an organisation they work on projects involving computers, robots, cell phones, SIM cards, radar & navigation systems. They are employed in building industry & services for lighting, heating, ventilation & wiring. They play a role in transportation & transport networks like roads and streets, railways, pipes, aqueducts, and power lines.

Chemical engineering deals with the study of physical Science (physics & chemistry) & life science (microbiology & biochemistry), applied mathematics & economics. 

Chemical engineers play a role in converting chemicals, raw materials, living cells, microorganisms & energy into useful forms & products in large scale industries. They produce are fuel, food, pharmaceuticals & biological (drug, vaccine, pesticide).

Mechanical engineering is the study of physical & material science (metals, semiconductors, ceramics and polymers). They oversee computer aided design. They are involved in design, production & operation of mechanical & thermal devices like electric generators, medical equipments, new batteries, internal combustion engines (an engine which generates motive power by the burning of fuel), gas turbines (convert natural gas to mechanical energy), refrigeration & air conditioning.

Civil engineering is the study geology (physical structure and substance of the earth), structural mechanics, building construction and surveying.

Civil Engineers design, construct, and maintain the physical and naturally built environment like roads, buildings, airports, tunnels, dams, bridges, and systems for water supply and sewage treatment.

Instrumentation engineering is the study of measurement & control of level, pressure, temperature, humidity,flow, force & speed. They are responsible for preparing research design & work on development & installation of equipments, devices & systems used in manufacture.

Leather engineers study leather manufacturing. They synthesize, produce & refine leather for making commercial goods.

Computer science engineering is the study hardware & software integration. He studies the computer as a electronic device analysing the electrical circuit system and software.

Computer engineers/software engineers plays a major role in developing, testing and evaluating the software. They may help in the development of new computer games and business applications, or even in the design of entirely new operating systems.

Information technology employs technology rather than hardware/software development. Technicians focus on storing, retrieving, transmitting & manipulating data & the application of computers in the world of business.

Engineering is the application of scientific methods in solving discrete problems whereas technology is the capability given by the practical application of knowledge. Technology describes the product of engineering rather than the engineering product itself.
