Engineering Minors

School of Computer
Science and Engineering
What are Engineering
Minors? Software
Methodology
and Testing
• A set of six courses in an engineering
stream to develop a competency within or Machine
outside the discipline area (e.g. a Data Science Learning
Computer Science Engineering student
choosing Cyber Security or Machine
Engineering
Learning or a Mechanical Engineering Minors
student taking courses from Computer
Science Engineering as his/her Full Stack
Cyber
Engineering Minor Area). Web
Security
Development
• These Engineering Minors are being
Cloud
offered so that each student would have at Computing
least one major skills by the end of 7th
term.
How Engineering Minors can help the students?

Engineering minors (EM) are the elective courses in engineering to enhance

competency in the technical and/or emerging domain.

A student can chose an Engineering minor basket comprising of six courses from
his/her own school or multi-disciplinary area can also be chosen.

The Engineering Minors allows a student to gain interdisciplinary experience and

exposure to concepts and perspectives that may not be a part of their degree
programs thus widening their understanding of the engineering.

Engineering minors also provides the freedom to students for designing their
degree program, choose their course curriculum and decide their future career.

A student completing the set of six courses chosen as Engineering minor and earning 18 credits would be
eligible for an additional certificate as minor.

Students can study the specialized courses as per their interest/requirements of industry leading to
attaining of specialized skill set, and the additional minor certificate earned along with the degree would
give an edge to the students and would also be beneficial in enhancing employability opportunities.
