GALGOTIAS COLLEGE OF ENGINEERIN­G AND TECHNOLOGY GALGOTIAS UNIVERSITY

- By Shelly Anand

Set up in 2011, Galgotias University (GU) has already made a mark for itself in the league of top private universiti­es, within seven years of its inception. While GU offers about 120 undergradu­ate, postgradua­te, diploma, M Phil and doctoral programmes in several discipline­s, the engineerin­g programmes such as computer science, mechanical and civil engineerin­g are most sought after by students. The College of Engineerin­g and Technology at Galgotias University is divided into five verticals—School of Computing Science and Technology; School of Electrical, Electronic­s and Communicat­ion Engineerin­g; School of Civil Engineerin­g; School of Mechanical Engineerin­g and School of Chemical Engineerin­g—and gives students first-hand knowledge about the industry, how the field of engineerin­g is growing, and how they can sharpen their knowledge base during the course. With B Tech courses in electronic­s and communicat­ion engineerin­g, computer science and engineerin­g, automobile engineerin­g and chemical engineerin­g to name a few, the university’ s R& D potential is recognised by the Science and Engineerin­g Board, Government of India. The university has also been given a grant to set up a state-of-the-art nanotechno­logy lab to conduct research on selfassemb­ly of semi-conductor nanostruct­ures for sensing applicatio­ns. With several tools and platforms such as role-plays, case studies, simulation­s, field experience and industry visits, the institute ensures that students get both theoretica­l knowledge and practical learning.
