comprehend, analyse, design and create novel products and solutions to
PEO2
Electrical and Electronics Engineering problems that are technically sound,
economically feasible and socially acceptable
To train students to exhibit professionalism, keep up ethics in their profession
PEO3
and relate engineering issues to address the technical and social challenges.

To develop communication skills and team work and to nurture

PE04
multidisciplinary approach in problem solving
 Programme Outcomes (POs) and Programme Specific Outcomes (PSOs) of
B.Tech. in Electrical and Electronics Engineering
Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering
PO1 fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex
engineering problems.

Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, research literature, and analyze complex

PO2 engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of
mathematics, natural sciences, and engineering sciences.

Design/development of solutions: Design solutions for complex engineering

problems and design system components or processes that meet the specified needs
PO3
with appropriate consideration for the public health and safety, and the cultural,
societal, and environmental considerations.

Conduct investigations of complex problems: Use research-based knowledge and

PO4 research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data,
and synthesis of the information to provide valid conclusions.

Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and
PO5 modern engineering and IT tools including prediction and modelling to complex
engineering activities with an understanding of the limitations.
