THE FUTURE AT MRCE

The 21st century presents a new set of challenges to the tertiary sector of technical education. The last century ended with much interest in building a knowledge society and advances in biotechnology. The new century will see emphasis on pollution control, environmental issues, and sustainable development. Indeed, companies like ITC and associations like CII already consider this a reality.

The scientific and engineering community at Manav Rachna College of Engineering is in the process of putting together a curriculum that shall produce environmentally sensitive engineers so as to be able to develop environment friendly and self sustaining technologies, products and services. Our engineering students shall be educated and skilled in areas like Green Chemistry, environment modeling, recycling technologies, efficient burning techniques, minimizing waste, ecofriendly electronics etc. built on the base of mechanical, electronics & communication, and computing technologies.

We shall carry forward the capacity of our students to do problem solving. The signal feature of the new curriculum is its emphasis on laboratory work for every course including mathematics.  Thus, not only shall our graduates be relevant to the new century but they shall also meet the urgent requirement of being skilled in problem solving. Practical skills of students are honed in laboratories and workshops, projects, summer training sessions. Starting from elementary interactions students carry out relatively complex projects in laboratories and workshops, individually and in groups.

Faculty members have already initiated the process of involving students in their R&D work.  Exposure to advanced technology is thus imparted to students outside the framework of their curriculum. This makes students ready to face challenges in new product/services and technology.

Co-curricular activity is further encouraged through the student branches of IEEE and SAE India, operational for the last two years in the campus. Under the auspices of these, lectures by experts, quizzes, competitions and courses of companies like Microsoft and Infosys are organized. Workshops are organized in areas such as cloud computing, robotics, engine assembling, transmission system assembly for cars. No wonder then that we have been conferred the Excellence award for our IEEE branch and our students have won the J. K. Pal awards in both, 2011 and 2012.

Extra curricular activities at Manav Rachna College of Engineering are organized in four broad areas, social, literary, cultural, and sports. These are organized by students for students under the guidance of faculty members of the College. Students learn event management and develop finer human qualities through these activities.

In summary, the College is committed to producing modern, up to date engineers, who can solve contemporary problems, are future ready, and imbued with the finest qualities cherished by human kind.
