Mathematics: The Department of Mathematics
conducted a Bridge course - A Special Orientation Programme
for Mathematics faculty members of all affiliated colleges
in this region at the Anna University Regional Campus -
Tirunelveli
Physics: The Department of physics was
established in 2008. The faculty members of this department
are engaged with the under graduate teaching of Engineering
physics for the B.E/B.Tech. students. The department is
offering Ph.D. in the field of crystal growth, semiconductor
thin films deposition, Photovoltaic's and Energy generation
etc,. The physics laboratory for the first year under
graduate students is well equipped to do the experiments for
physics practical classes.
Chemistry: The goal of the department is to
strengthen the knowledge in Applied Chemistry of the
students which will make them to solve the problems related
to Engineering Chemistry effortlessly. The enriched
experience of faculty members in teaching and research will
cater the students to expose themselves in their research
field. The well developed laboratories provide the
facilities for the students to trial the practical
possibilities of the problems given to them. The faculty
members make the publications of their research work in high
index journals continually. The campus supports the
department to conduct many workshops, seminars and
conferences to enlighten the knowledge of our students.
English: The department of English strives
to produce versatile and creative students with strong
interpretive and communicative skills needed for the today's
changing world. It equips students with the English language
skills required for the successful undertaking of academic
studies with primary emphasis on academic listening skills,
speaking skills, reading skills and writing skills. It
improves general and academic listening skills. It provides
guidance and practice in basic general and class room
conversation so as to participate confidently and
appropriately in conversations both formal and informal. It
strengthens the reading skills of students. It enhances
their writing skills with specific reference to technical
writing. Thus it enhances the employability and career
skills of students and makes them Employable Graduates.
RAMANUJAN CLUB FOR INNOVATIONS IN MATHEMATICS (RCIM)
“In Mathematics the art of proposing a question must be
held of higher value than solving it”.
-Georg Cantor, German
Math is a linear learning process. It gives us a way to
understand patterns, to quantify relationships and to predict
the future. Math helps us understand the world and we use the
world to understand Math. Mathematics is the science that
deals with the logic of shape, quantity and arrangement. It is
useful way to think about nature and our world. Mathematics
exists everywhere and it is applied in the most useful
phenomenon. It is an integral part of daily life formal and
informal. It is used in technology, business, medicine,
natural and data sciences, Machine learning and construction.
It is not just about numbers, most of it problem solving and
reasoning, inductive and deductive. It also discusses also
intuition, Proof and certainty
Shri. Srinivasa Ramanujan was one of India's
greatest Mathematical geniuses. He made substantial
contributions to the analytical theory of numbers and worked
on elliptic functions, continued fractions, and infinite
series. Every year, on December 22, India observes its
National Mathematics day in honour of Shri. Srinivasa
Ramanujan, regarded as one of the greatest Mathematicians to
ever grace the planet. He says:
“An Equation Means Nothing to me Unless It Expresses a
thought of God”
In this regard, to honour Shri Srinivasa Ramanujan and
inculcate his Mathematical temper into the young minds, the
Department of Science & Humanities started a Mathematics
club in the name of “RAMANUJAN CLUB FOR INNOVATONS IN MATHEMATICS (RCIM)”. There should be a scope of learning beyond class room
confinement to widen the knowledge of students and to provide
exposure for real life problems relating to society. It helps
the students in having an idea of the practical utility of
Mathematics in addition to creating their interest in
Mathematics and to encourage their creativity. It helps our
students get to grips with a wide range of Mathematical
Principles. Its mainly to encourage passionate engagement with
mathematics by promoting diverse activities that go beyond
regular classroom learning.
Prelude
Science Club is the platform for the students to promote their
scientific interest, realize their scientific skills and fulfill
their quest in doing science activities. To inculcate the
scientific temper among the students and society is an essential
activity of this club with science popularization talks, visit to
scientific places, etc. Further, the club aims to organize
Seminars, Workshops, Exhibition and Quiz competition to instill
students knowledge and skill in the field of science.
Objectives
To inculcate scientific attitude among the students
To provide opportunity for the development of the constructive,
explorative & inventive ideas among the students
To develop the training in scientific method of problem solving
To develop students, interest and participation in the practical
applications of the knowledge related to different branches of
sciences
Modalities from University
As per the Regulation 2021, clause 4.2 (and earlier regulations),
all the students shall enroll in any one of the personality and
character development programmes, namely, NSS / NSO / YRC /
Literary Club / Science Club and undergo training / conduct of
activities for about 80 hours and attend a camp / event.
Further, the same clause 4.2 states as follows:
“Science Club shall organize activities
of popularization of science and scientific temper through
activities related to astronomy, works of great scientists from
India and abroad, observing National Science Day,
etc.”
Programs organized
Inauguration of Science Club during the
academic year 2023-24
The Science Club was established with the approval of
Honourable Vice-Chancellor of Anna University as per the
Regulation-2021. Subsequently, the club was inaugurated by
the Dean of the campus and the logo for the Science Club
was released.
KALAM'24 - a Science Fair - state level UG
intercollegiate program organized on 22.03.2024
A science expo and paper presentation event for the UG
students across the state was conducted as per the
approval of the Honourable Vice-Chancellor as part of the
Science Club activity. Students across the state
registered with their innovations with 60 project
expeditions and 123 paper presentations both in English
and Tamil. The event was conducted in successful manner
and the participants were provided with their certificates
and appreciations.
First prize of the project expo was awarded with the cash prize
of Rs.6000/- and second prize with Rs.3000/-. Further, the first
and second prizes for the paper presentations were honoured with
cash prize of Rs.2000/- and Rs.1000/- respectively in English
and Tamil individually. The Head, District Science Center,
Tirunelveli has addressed the participants with his enlighten
speech about Future Science and Technology and distributed the
cash prizes and certificates.
Astronight - Sky watching - in collaboration
with District Science Center, Tirunelveli the event of sky
watching is successfully organized the dawn of a day with the
powerful telescope by introducing the sky in close proximity by
identifying various planets, stars and celestials. Students and
staff members witnessed the event with their family and friends
