| About Freshman Engineering |
|
The Department of Freshman Engineering (FME) — formerly known as the Department of Humanities and Sciences — at Narsimha Reddy Engineering College (NRCM) is a foundational department that serves as the academic starting point for all incoming engineering students. It is a conglomeration of Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Environmental Studies, and English, all united under one umbrella to provide a holistic first-year experience. NRCM itself is a UGC Autonomous Institution located at Maisammaguda, Kompally, Secunderabad, Telangana, and the FME Department plays a central role in shaping students from the very first day they step onto campus. Nrcmec Students who enroll in the engineering programme are like raw materials that need to be polished and molded to suit the needs of technology worldwide. This is where the FME Department steps in. Under the spirited guidance of the Head of Department, faculty members nurture students in the first year of their engineering life and prepare them for their future. Faculty StrengthThe department is home to twenty-five highly qualified, experienced, energetic, and committed faculty members who constantly strive to monitor and motivate students toward academic excellence. The faculty spans all core science and humanities disciplines, with dedicated experts in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and English. LaboratoriesThe department is well-equipped with labs to support theory, namely the Engineering Physics Lab, Engineering Chemistry Lab, and ELCS (English Language and Communication Skills) Lab, where students are exposed to the practical application of technology. Teaching InfrastructureThe well-ventilated and furnished classrooms are equipped with LCD projectors, and most lectures are delivered through PowerPoint presentations, ensuring an engaging and modern learning environment for first-year students. Soft Skills and Employability Training
Apart from the rigorous training given in the first-year B.Tech programme, the English faculty impart soft skills training for second-year through fourth-year B.Tech students for enhancing their employability. This makes the FME Department unique — its influence extends well beyond the first year. |
