From HoD’s Desk
This month happens
to be the anniversary of ‘Online Education’. The last year was very uncertain
for students, faculties, institutes, and parents in the form of lectures,
practical sessions, examinations, academic activities, etc. However, the
paradigm shift of offline to online teaching is successfully handled by our
department. Despite some limitations such as field exposure in the form of
Practical sessions and industrial visits, faculties and students have enhanced
their knowledge through virtual labs and visits. In the last month, it was
thought that the classes will now start in offline mode but again with the rise
of the second wave of COVID-19, the teaching has shifted from online to offline
mode. With the revised circular of SPPU, In-Semester and End-Semester
examinations for Semester I (AY 2020-21) are scheduled in the next month.
Faculties and students are busy in the preparation of the same. On behalf of
the department, we wish all the best to students for the examination!
