PROPOSED ACTIONS: TOPICS BEYOND SYLLABUS/ASSIGNMENT/INDUSTRY VISIT/GUESTLECTURER/NPTEL ETC
TOPICS BEYOND SYLLABUS/ADVANCED TOPICS/DESIGN:
1 students in engineering mechanics develop a strong foundation in mathematics, physics,and chemistry
2 The program derives its strength from a rigorous curriculum composed of statics,dynamics, solid
mechanics, fluid mechanics, and mechanics of materials courses.
3 Students in engineering mechanics also benefit from a built-in area of specialization in one of seven
secondary fields within mechanics. The seven pre-approved secondary fields are:
Biomechanics, Computational Mechanics,Engineering Science and Applied Mathematics, Experimental
Mechanics,Fluid Mechanics,Mechanics of Materials, Solid Mechanics
