Department of Chemical Engineering ( NBA ACCREDITED )
The Department of Chemical Engineering was established in the year 1999 with intake of 60 students. The course syllabus of the Department has been designed by keeping in mind the Chemical Engineering syllabi of various international institutions. The course syllabus contains a combination of theory courses as well as laboratory experimentation. This inculcates a habit of relating observations to fundamentals. In addition, the students spend six –eight weeks in industry during their vacations, so as to update themselves with real life industrial situations. In doing so, they get an opportunity to apply theory to real –life problems. The students are also made to do independent projects, seminars and home papers. This develops their independent thinking and creative ability. It helps them to analyze a given problem through various angles and synthesize innovative engineering solutions.
The undergraduate program of Chemical Engineering is accredited four times ( Three times in Tier-II & one time in Tier-I ) by National Board of Accreditation (NBA). Department is well known for its student centric activity via various events like seminar, conferences, workshops, guest lectures, industrial visits, add-on courses etc. conducted throughout the year to enrich the students’ knowledge and contribute towards bridging the gap between the curriculum and industrial requirement. The students graduating from the Department of Chemical Engineering are well placed in profession both in India and abroad. Also, a good number of students pursue higher studies in India as well as in other countries like USA, Europe.
IIChE student chapter of Department of Chemical Engineering is honored with “Pidilite Industries Best Student Chapter Award” for the year 2013 for being adjudged the Best Student Chapter among all other student chapter under Indian Institute of Chemical Engineers. SCHEMCON – 2015 was successfully organized by the chapter in September 2015 on the theme ‘Sustainable Development for Better Tomorrow’. It was for the first time in western region.
The Ignited Minds - Club conducts social, cultural and technical events for the students and club members alike. It organizes socio-cultural events and also strives to raise awareness of Indian culture in the surrounding regions through lectures and orientations. These activities help in nourishing qualities like organizing skills, leadership quality, social awareness, entrepreneurship quality among students.
Thus, we provide a vibrant and creative learning environment for our students. We invite you to explore more about our Department of Chemical Engineering through this website, and also invite you to personally visit our Department to learn more!

Artificial intelligence evokes images of supercomputer assistants, machines that can think creatively, and, to some, scenes from their favorite sci-fi movie. The reality, despite not being as futuristic, is not far off from this. AI refers to the ability of a computer or machine to mimic the competencies of the human mind, which often learns from previous experiences to understand and respond to language, decisions, and problems. The market for AI technologies is vast, amounting to around 200 billion U.S. dollars in 2023 and is expected to grow well beyond that to over 1.8 trillion U.S. dollars by 2030.
AI comes in many forms
AI is broadly divided into machine learning and deep learning. These then have further subcategories such as natural language processing, computer vision, robotics, and more. Machine learning constitutes the most basic and simple AI form. Programs operating on machine learning are given a very clear set of parameters to use in interactions with humans and are limited in scope. It is also the most common form of AI, used in basic chat assistants, apps, voice commands, and other limited engagements.Deep learning is closer to what a person would imagine from AI. In deep learning programs, AI has initial parameters and datasets but can integrate user information as it interacts with humans. In this way, the AI learns as it is used, becoming more sophisticated in the process. Recent examples of advanced deep learning programs are OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Bard.
Generative AI has entered the field
A new trend in AI development surged into the limelight at the end of 2022 in the form of generative AI. Although not being strictly new, with such programs already appearing over the last five years, advancement in this field have been staggering. Generative AI refers to programs that can, as the name suggests, generate text, images, music, and more. Driven by the release of ChatGPT-3 in late 2022, the field has drawn in Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and recently, Elon Musk’s X as well. All are competing in the development of the most advanced generative AI through a variety of startup companies. The advancement in this case is not without its flaws as generative AI companies have been accused of training their AI models on copyrighted texts and images, snubbing writers and artists.
The AI train steams ahead
With the advancements in deep learning and machine learning, coupled with the immense effect such programs may have on the global economy, it is to be expected that AI will be in continuous competitive development in all advanced economies. Any company looking to leverage an advantage on its competitors would do well to engage early so as not to be left behind.
