(2024-2025)
The rapid changes in the Engineering and Technology fields requires additional set of
knowledge and skills beyond prescribed curriculum to meet the industrial requirement. This can
also enhance the lateral thinking and the spirit of innovation and start up to cope up with the
various schemes. To meet the rapid technological development, several times, students need to
be imparted with new skills and professionalism in order to achieve the Programme Specific
Objectives. The add on curriculum clearly defines the program specific courses. However,
students may need specialized aptitude of their own interest to become industry ready. In view
of this, Nehru Institute of Technology and Technology (Autonomous) decided to offer range
of Add-On courses in the field of Engineering and Technology (common to all branch) ranging
from foundation to more specialized areas. These courses are conducted by experts for academia
and industries which help students to stand apart from the rest in the job market by adding
further value to their resume.

Course Objectives
The main objectives of the Add-On Course are:
CO1: To enhance the knowledge and skills in more specialized areas of Chemical
Engineering and Technology beyond Curriculum.
CO2: To bridge the skill gaps and make students industry ready.
CO3: To provide an opportunity to students to seek the knowledge and the more job
opportunities in the specialized area of interest.
