There is only one nature — the division
into science and engineering is a human
imposition, not a natural one. Indeed, the
division is a human failure; it reflects our
limited capacity to comprehend the whole.
—Sir William Cecil Dampier
It gives me immense pleasure in welcoming you on behalf of the Trust, Supreme Knowledge Foundation (SKF) to
Supreme Knowledge Foundation Group of Institutions (SKFGI) comprising of two Institutes: Sir J. C. Bose School of
Engineering and Dr. P. C. Mahalanabish School of Management.
We are committed to executing all the programmes recommended by our Education Division and approved by our
Governing Body. And we are indeed fortunate to have with us Professor B. N. Biswas, a renowned educationist and
scientist, and above all a great visionary, who has been guiding us assiduously round the clock as the Chairman of
this Division.
I am happy that within a short span of four years of its inception, our Institute has grown into an excellent centre
for providing not only undergraduate education in engineering, leading to B. Tech degree in six disciplines (Civil,
Mechanical, Electronics & Communication, Electrical, Computer Science, and Applied Electronics & Instrumentation)
but also postgraduate education in Engineering leading to M. Tech degree in two disciplines (Electronics & Communication
Engineering and Electrical Engineering) as well as in Management Science leading to the degree of MBA. All these
programmes are approved by All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and are affiliated to West Bengal
University of Technology (WBUT). I am also delighted to see that SKFGI is growing up as a centre of excellence in
carrying out doctoral and sponsored research programmes as well. These programmes have become enriched by
collaboration with several Institutions in the country such as CSIR and DRDO laboratories and premier academic
Institutions in the country and abroad such as IIT-Kharagpur, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and Seoul National
University.
We are amongst the few selected self-financed academic Institutions in the country, that has for the purpose of jointly
executing academic and R&D programmes, signed the memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Central Electronics
Engineering Institute (CEERI), Pilani (CSIR) and NB Institute for Rural Technology, Kolkata. Our Corporate Relation
Affairs division has proudly established MoUs with esteemed premier Organisations for Training and Placement.
Further, we are proud that we have created in our Campus five Centres for creative R&D/knowledge expansion/
entrepreneurship development: (i) Sir J. C. Bose Creativity Centre, (ii) Centre for Renewable and Non-Conventional
Energy Studies and Research, (iii) IBM Systems Centre of Excellence, (iv) Finite-Element Analysis and Design Centre
and (v) Entrepreneurship Development Cell.
04 | Prospectus 2013
Prospectus 2013 | 05

I also take this opportunity to applaud Corporate Relation Affairs Division of SKFGI which has brought us very
encouraging results in Training and Placement of our students. I am sure the present Prospectus will highlight the
success story of this division while projecting the other facets of SKFGI. Special credit goes to them for their
remarkable success in placing 2013 pass-out students of SKFGI including the first batch of B. Tech students!
I am satisfied that we have maintained our tradition of hosting, in association with a CSIR laboratory, namely, CEERI,
Pilani and with the support of the other sponsors including DRDO, the E2NC series of Conference on “Engineering
Education in the New Century” thereby giving an opportunity to our students to be acquainted with the global
engineering scenario and to interact with the experts of International repute within our premises. A unique feature
of such a national or International conference is that as part of the conference events we also organize the College
Students’ Paper Contest and the School Students’ Quiz and Oral Presentation Contest. In parallel and as preconference
event, our students show their professional skill and capability by organizing workshops in areas of
topical interest such as robotics; they also host in our Campus inter-Institutional technology exhibition and competition:
Tech-Craze. You are going to get more information about both E2NC and TechCraze later in this part of the prospectus.
Hats off to as many as a dozen of undergraduate students of SKFGI who have earned the distinction of co-authoring
a very large number of research papers during the ‘present academic session’ with their teacher guides in peerreviewed
journals of International repute! I hope that their papers would be listed in this prospectus. Further, I am
happy that not only the students and teachers of SKFGI but also those of neighbouring Institutions have used the
facilities of SKFGI and guidance of our senior teachers in their pursuit for higher studies and research.
Furthermore, we are proud to offer our students the great opportunity of receiving tutelage from the teachers par
excellence of SKFGI. In the recent past, our distinguished teachers have earned laurels not only for themselves but
also for SKFGI by their national and International recognitions presented separately in this Prospectus. It is indeed
satisfying to note from this account that the teachers of SKFGI are motivating our students to attain the desired
excellence by their own achievements.
The education policy of our country has recently given much stress on research along with teaching. I believe that
the research activities of our teachers would strengthen their teaching competence and confidence. In fact, I agree
to the following remark of Edward M. Purcell in American Journal of Physics [Vol. 65, (1997), 689]: “Every so often,
it still happens that someone tells me that there is an irreconcilable conflict between teaching and research, that
dedicated teachers do not do research because it takes away time that they could be spending on their teaching,
or that serious research physicists cannot afford to devote a significant amount of time and effort to teaching. As
a generalization, this has always struck me as ludicrous.” And, therefore, generalizing the spirit of the forgoing
remark, I, on behalf of all the members of the Trust, would like to extend our support to the teachers in their research
endeavour believing that teaching and research are the two sides of the same coin. More importantly, let our students
benefit from the teaching and research experiences of their mentors and pass out from SKFGI as the most successful
and valuable graduates of the country!
I hope by going through the pages of this Prospectus you will have the information about SKFGI and its two Institutes
for engineering and management science, respectively. However, I welcome you to visit the SKFGI campus with a
view to experiencing personally the infrastructure and facilities that we have created for the education of our
engineering and management science students catering to the requirement of our country.
I assure you that we would not leave any stone unturned to make the education of our students at SKFGI fruitful,
creative, result-oriented and enjoyable. And while taking the responsibility of imparting quality education to our
students, I am committed to complying with the Jewish proverb: “I ask not for a lighter burden, but for broader
shoulders!”
Bijoy Guha Mallick
Chairman, Supreme Knowledge Foundation (Trust)
Welcome from the Desk of the Chairman,
Education Division, Supreme Knowledge Foundation Group of Institutions
Sabare Kari Awabhan
Beginning around 6000 BC in India and around 2500 BC in Egypt, engineers have been found to possess one
very important attribute in common unusual capability to discover the truth for the benefit of society. In India,
engineering culture started with the growth of civilisation in Mehergarh and Mo hen-jo-daro. In Egypt, it started
with the creation of the Step Pyramid out of the needs of society in 2550 BC by the Egyptian architect Imhotep,
worshipped as the patron of architects and doctors, while, in Greece, he was identified with the God Asclepius.
However, the initiation of formal engineering training goes back to 1747 when ‘Ecole dees Ponts et Chauseess’
was founded in Paris. Later, Ecole Poletechnique was established by Napoleon in 1794. In France, engineering
practice was recognized as a noble profession producing
future statesman and leaders of the society. Thus, “…..
a nation's competitiveness depends, in part, on the skills
of tomorrow's engineers” (from Recent Study Report
in USA).
We are changing and will never be the same again and
so also engineering education, which is tightly woven
to the fabric of the society. In such a changing
environment, the old concept of distance, time and
location is fast losing its traditional meaning, and
geographical, political and cultural boundaries are
subliming fast. In the present era, an engineer trained
in one country works in another with different cultures
where he or she needs to handle products, incorporating
components from multiple science and engineering
disciplines. This clearly signifies that engineering
education and engineering practice are no more the
same announcing the demise of “one-size-fits-allconcept”
of engineering curriculum. An obvious indication
is the importance of innovative teaching, the habit of
learning beyond syllabus in an environment soaked with
the fragrance of classroom teaching and industry
requirement and mastering of communication skills that
cross disciplines, cultures and languages.
06 | Prospectus 2013
Prospectus 2013 | 07

This is conceptually depicted in the adjoining picture that I conceived: “Engineering Tree in Blossom” with
flowers of requirements and unwanted and undesired ills are nipped in the bud. More importantly, the picture
shows how SKFGI is committed to nourishing this Engineering Tree!
Let us not forget that, though we have missed the Industrial Revolution and perhaps are still unable to utilize
the full benefit of Information and Knowledge Revolution because of our late participation, we should not miss
the Technical Education (Engineering and Management) Revolution which began during the end of the 20th
century and is sweeping across the globe.
It is heartening to see that SKFGI is engaged in educating their students in tune with the needs of the swinging
21st century. This is happening as we are promoting a symbiosis between undergraduate and postgraduate
education as has been the usual practice in USA, UK, Japan, France and Germany, at least in the leading
Institutions of these countries. The high quality faculty and creative activity of the postgraduate division would
enrich the quality of undergraduate teaching and build proper academic attitudes among the undergraduate
students. Incidentally, we are executing MBA and M. Tech programmes along with undergraduate programmes
in engineering. This is an urgent need of the present century. Moreover, in a technical academia, it is also
important to create a culture of job hunting. This will happen if we can synergize Engineering and Management
Education, because the former develops the technology for the benefit of the society and the latter takes it
to the society. All this is depicted pictorially in the adjoining figure.
Wading through the following pages of this Prospectus, I suppose, will give you a glimpse of our activities in
support of what I narrated above. However, I would welcome your personal visit to our campus for auditing
and enjoying the feast of activities that we are carrying out here at SKFGI.

Campus
The Institute with adequate built-up space as per AICTE norms is located in a lush green pollution-free
environment of 10.408 acres, away from the din and bustle of city life, and is adjacent to the railway station
“Mankundu”, about 30 km away from Kolkata. The Campus includes Academic and Administrative infrastructure
comprising spacious and well lit Class Rooms equipped with modern teaching aids, lecture Halls, Air Conditioned
Computer Laboratories, Internet Wi-fi facility, Library, Office, Rooms, AC Seminar Halls, Air Conditioned
Language Laboratory, Medical facilities, Hostels for boys and girls, with mess, sports, and other allied facilities
like parking, garage, store rooms, cafeterias. The class rooms are spacious, well ventilated and equipped with
modern teaching aids.
Location
The College is about an hour’s drive from
the Kolkata Airport and about 35 km from
the heart of the city of Kolkata. Mankundu
is a small suburb town under greater Kolkata.
Mankundu is situated in latitude: 22.050N
and longitude: 88.022E. It is served by a
railway station by its own name in Howrah-
Bandel-Burdwan main line section with
frequent train services. It is adjacent to the
city of Chandannagar, situated along the
bank of river Ganga, founded in 1673 by the
French East India Company, in the state of
West Bengal; its unique cultural heritage and
geographical location was a must-see on the
agenda of foreign travellers: British, Danish,
French, Belgians and Germans.

Prospectus 2013 | 13

Campus Discipline
The students feel a very sacred atmosphere in the Campus. They feel motivated to advance in their career
when they find themselves in a disciplined campus. The law and order in the locality around the campus
is also very peaceful. Being adjacent to Mankundu Railway Station, SKFGI provides an added advantage
for the commuting day-scholars, teachers, and other employees of the Institute. Further, it is compulsory
not only for all students but also for teachers and other employees of the Institute to remain present in
the campus during the Institute hours; none of them are permitted to leave the campus during these hours
without a valid permission from the authority, which has to be based on the applications in the prescribed
format duly endorsed by the concerned heads of departments/directors/ deans.
Ragging in any form inside or outside the campus or in the halls of residence or hostels is strictly prohibited.
The involvement or indulgence in such activity is considered as an act of indiscipline as per West Bengal
Government Anti-Ragging Act and will lead to the expulsion of the involved students from the Institute.
All prohibitory measures are taken as per the norms of the Supreme Court (vide Writ Petition No. C656/1998).
The Anti-Ragging Squad of the Institute shall be in constant vigil to eliminate ragging and redress any
complaint in this regard, expeditiously. Moreover, smoking, consuming alcohol, taking ‘drugs’, chewing pan,
tambaku, zarda, etc. in the Institute Campus are strictly prohibited.
Security and Proctorial Board
The region in which the Institute is situated is reportedly very peaceful and naturally it enjoys a much
secured environment and as such it becomes rather easy for the Institute Administration to provide security
to students. However, the Institute maintains a liaison with the Civil Authorities to ensure the security in
the Campus. Furthermore, the Institute Proctorial Board keeps round-the-clock vigil to see that the peaceful
environment is not disturbed in the Campus. Stern action is taken against a student if found involved in
any misconduct and in any activity that would harm the peaceful environment of the Campus.
Concept Classes
Personal care is taken with respect to individual students
to implant the basics and fundamentals in them through
‘concept classes’ which they are supposed to attend
beyond their regular classes. Such concept classes are
addressed by the renowned professors of the Institute
as well as by the external experts from premier
Organisations of the academic, R&D laboratory, industry,
and defence sectors of the country.
Attendance and
Examination
The strict observance of the attendance and the
examination sanctity has been a prime asset of the
Institute. Each student is required to secure at least 75%
attendance as per WBUT norms in both theory and
practical classes. Failure to attain the required percentage
debars a student from appearing in Semester
Examinations. No compromise is made with regard to
indiscipline and malpractice in Internal and University
Examinations. The parents/guardians are constantly
informed of their wards’ attendance and performances
in Examinations.
Parents-Teachers
Interaction
The Institute maintains a close linkage with the
parents/guardians of the students. The parents/guardians
are informed of the attendance, the performance, and of
the other activities of their wards. Similarly, the
parents/guardians are welcome anytime to interact with
the Institute on any matter concerning their wards. The
disciplinary action taken against a student, if any, is
brought to the notice of his or her parents/guardians.
We ensure the interaction between the parents and the
Institute through frequent meetings. A visiting hour of
the parents/guardian is scheduled from 3 to 4.30pm on
all working days unless the concerned department
intimates the parents/guardian to visit the Institute
urgently or beyond the schedule hours on exigency.

Swami Vivekananda Auditorium
The Institute is proud to have recently built its acoustically designed Auditorium dedicated to Swami
Vivekananda coinciding with his 150th Birth Anniversary. The Swami Vivekananda Auditorium is located
on the third floor of the Institute Main Building with an audience capacity of 300. It has the state-of-theart
features (such as false ceiling with glass-wool pack, followed by Gyp. Board fixing; acoustical wall
panelling with glass wool isolation with Gyp. Board cover; Yamaha Public Address System with all
accessories; and Sony O.H. Projector with 2000 ANSI Lumens XGA resolution). The Auditorium has been
of great use to us in hosting national and International conferences, orientation sessions of recruiters,
inter-Institutional debates and scientific meets as well as social and cultural events at SKFGI.
Corporate Relation Affairs Division
encompassing Training and Placement
The Institute has a full-fledged wing, namely, Corporate Relation Affairs (CRA) Division under the guidance
of the Chairman, Education Division of SKFGI. The distinct Vision of the CRA Division is, sustained excellence
in Training, Placement and Career Orientation. The Division operating through its two offices in two verticals,
one at the Institute Campus and another at Kolkata garners support from renowned Industry and Corporate
Houses. The Division arranges campus interviews and grooms them through preparatory classes, group
discussions, mock interviews, etc. It also arranges the visits of H. R. personnel from the Corporate Sectors
to SKFGI, who through their lectures and seminars motivate students and develop awareness in them. The
Division also arranges the Summer Internship for students. The activities of the CRA Division are carried
out in liaison with the concerned Heads of Departments.
The Pre-placement Grooming Cell of the CRA Division is aimed at bridging the gap between the class-room
teaching and the requirements at the future workplace of students after they pass out from the Institute.
The Cell takes care in inculcating into the students a mix of academic, technical and behavioural skills,
attitudes, soft skill, team compatibility and other professional competencies so that they become more
acceptable and deliverable to the potential employers. The Cell extremely values what Hewlett-Packard
points out: “If teaching equipment and curriculum become more obsolescent, then our job in industry
becomes much harder and our country falls behind in the technology race and in world market.” The
Division is well aware of its Vision, Aim and Objective, Short-Term Plan and Long-Term Plan. It also takes
care of Vocational Training, and Summer Internship Programme of students and make them aware of Present
Job Requirement Scenario, Achievement /Placement Status of our students, and finally keeps record of and
reacts to Students’ Feedback. The Division has done a commendable job in the placement of students. For
instance, thanks to the all-out effort of the Division, around 91% of the final B. Tech students of the Institute
have already been selected for jobs through campus interviews up to the end of May 2013.
Industry-Academia Partnership Initiative
Richard Atkinson, President of the University of California, USA has rightly said, “This is the strategic time
to start investigating in Institute-Industry partnerships that put the products of Institute research directly
to work in the economy (e.g. Silicon Valley).” Institute-Academia-Partnership is a natural process. An
Institute is a knowledge-generating machine that generates Students and Research Results. On the other
hand, an Industry requires the Students and Research Results as the input and generates resources, namely,
Funds and Intellectual Stimulation. Therefore, the two together can form an ideal
partnership. It is a symbiotic process. The bonding of SKFGI with CSIR-CEERI, IBM
and NB Institute for Rural Technology and the establishment of the R&D centres at SKFGI
such as Sir J. C. Bose Creativity Centre and Centre for Renewable and Non-Conventional
Energy Studies and Research are our advancing steps toward the goal of becoming one
of the leading groups of academic Institutions in the country. Right from the beginning
of the Institute, we are striving for Industry-Academia bonding; the existence of IBM
Systems Centre of Excellence and the proposed MoU with Sterlite Technologies in the
Campus are the typical testimonies to this effort. (See the section to follow on Sir J. C.
Bose School of Engineering for further details). We are also looking forward to the
successful implementation of various industry-campus connect programmes.

PART
B
Sir J. C. Bose School of Engineering
The School that thinks Ahead of Time

“The true laboratory is the mind, where behind illusions we uncover the laws of truth”
Professor Jagadish Chandra Bose
“Across the oceans, on the western shore,
Reigns the temple of Goddess
Of wealth and science,
There you have journeyed, my friend,
And returned richly crowned.”
--- Rabindranath Tagore
“J. C. Bose was at least 60 years ahead of his time. . . In fact, he had anticipated the existence of p-type
and n-type semiconductors.” – Sir Neville Mott, Noble Laureate.
Born on 30th November 1858 in Bikrampur near Dhaka in Bangladesh, Acharya Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose
graduated from St. Xavier’s College; Calcutta received B. Sc. Degree from the University of Calcutta in
1879. In 1880, he went to England to study medicine at University of London. However, he had to quit
because of ill health. He then moved to Christ’s College, Cambridge to study Natural Science. Bose received
the Natural Science Tripos from the University of Cambridge and a B. Sc degree from the University of
London in 1884. During this period one of his teachers was Lord Rayleigh who had a profound influence
on his later work.
It is highly encouraging to note that during his time people were attracted by Western culture. A man was
proud if he had learnt English. But Jagadish Chandra Bose’s education was really remarkable; it was due
to his father, Bhagawan Chandra Bose. Jagadish Chandra received his school education in Bengali from
Hare School at Calcutta. He was thrilled by the illustrious characters of Ramayana and Mahabharata. Karna
of Mahabharata was an ideal to him because he was not only a great hero but also very generous.
Bose returned to India and joined Presidency College as officiating Professor of Physics. During this period
Bose, following the example of Lord Rayleigh, made extensive use of scientific demonstrations in class.
Bose was a highly successful teacher, because by instinct he was a great physicist with unbelievable
experimental ingenuity. He encouraged them to observe, to question, to experiment and to innovate,
without depending solely on books or teachers. Many of his students at the Presidency College were
destined to become famous in their own right - for example S.N. Bose, later to become well known for the
Bose-Einstein statistics. He designed and developed sensitive and sophisticated equipment for his research
work. Aside this, he also developed a few highly sensitive instruments. ‘Crescograph’ was one such
instrument, which is used for measuring the growth in plants. A demonstration of the Crescograph at the
University College of London on April 23, 1920 led several leading scientists to state in The Times: “We
are satisfied that the growth of plant tissues is correctly recorded by this instrument, and at a magnification
from one million to ten million times.” He is a polymath, physicist, biologist, botanist and archaeologist.
While in Presidency College he made remarkable progress in radio science. In November 1894, he made
public demonstration of wireless signalling. In May 1897, Marconi conducted wireless signalling experiment.
IEEE named him one of the fathers of radio science. He was also considered the father of Bengali Science
fiction writer. He was first to develop a semi-conducting crystal as a detector (galena crystal) of radio
waves. For this a US patent was awarded to him in 1904. But he was reluctant to any form of patenting.
Sister Nivedita was instrumental in filing for this patent. He is not only a scientist but also a philosopher
and a divinely inspired sage “Rishi (G{f)”, and believed that patenting does not help progress of science.
This is as true as the Sun rises in the east. Think of what would have happened if the invention of ‘0’ (Zero)
was patented by the Aryabhata! If free access to this result were denied we could not have done any research
in scientific world. When in England J. C. Bose wrote to Rabindranath Tagore in 1901, “.... I wish you could
see that terrible attachment for gain in this country....that lust for money...Once caught in that trap there
would have been no way out for me.”
He received quite a few awards for his works, like Companion of the order of the Indian Empire (1903),
Companion of the order of the Star of India (1912), Knight Bachelor (1917), Fellow of Royal Society (FRS,
1920), Member of the Vienna Academy of Sciences (1928), and so on. J. C. Bose, the unsung hero of radio
communication and inventor of Marconi’s wireless receiver, was denied Noble Prize.
However, on September 14, 2012 Bose’s experimental work in millimetre-band radio was recognized as an
IEEE Milestone in Electrical and Computer Engineering, the first such recognition of a discovery in India.
It is not surprising that many great persons of the day were his friends. Prafulla Chandra Ray, another
famous scientist, was one of his close friends. Eminent men like Gopalakrishna Gokhale and Mahatma
Gandhi knew and respected him. There were two other friends of his, two giants of the literary world. They
were George Bernard Shaw, the English dramatist and Romain Rolland, the French writer. Both of them
dedicated one book each to Jagadish Chandra Bose.
Vivekananda, Sister Nivedita and Mrs. Sara Bull were also his good friends and well-wishers who helped
him to realize his dream and the need of establishing a research Institution in India. While inaugurating the
Bose Research Institute in Calcutta on November 30, 1917 he said, "This is not a laboratory but a temple."
J. C. Bose laid the foundations of experimental science in this country. Before him there was hardly any
tradition of experimental science in India. He can very justifiably be called the Galileo of modern India.
To the very end Acharya Bose was busy with research. Wealth and power never attracted Jagadish Chandra
Bose. He toiled for science like a saint, selflessly. This great teacher, scientist and a creative engineer is a
great example to all. We salute the father of radio communication and inventor of Marconi’s wireless receiver.
Acharya Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose breathed his last on 23 November 1937 at the age of 79.
As a mark of our respect,
Sir J. C. Bose School of Engineering
is our humble tribute to him!

Sir J. C. Bose Creativity Centre
The Institute offers this unique centre for cultivating innovative ideas in students and helping them carry
out research in frontier areas under the guidance of an Internationly acclaimed scientist and educationalist
Professor B. N. Biswas, whom the Institute boasts to have amidst its students and teachers round the clock
as Emeritus Professor of Electronics and Communication Engineering Department, on one hand, and as
the Chairman of the Education Division of SKFGI, and, above all, as the overall Mentor of SKFGI, on the
other. The research carried out jointly by the students and teachers of the Institute have earned recognition
through publications in journals, presentation at conferences, and students’ paper and innovative design
contests.
The Centre also provides doctoral research facilities to in-house and external researchers. For instance,
one of the teachers of a neighbouring Institute benefited from the guidance of the centre and submitted
his doctoral thesis this year to WBUT; see Annexure BI. During the span of only a couple of years of its
existence, the Centre has to its credit a very large number of research papers published in peer-reviewed
reputed journals listed in Annexure BI. It is heartening to mention that as many as 13 B. Tech students of
SKFGI have co-authored journal papers in a short span of a year during the current session with their
teacher supervisors (see Annexure BI). Recently, the Centre has sponsored the visit of four final year
students to CSIR-CEERI for collaborative linkage in the area of vacuum and plasma electron devices
(microwave and millimetre-wave tubes), nanotechnology, and electronic instrumentation; they were also
trained in electromagnetic, thermal and structural simulations. One of the M. Tech students has also visited
the same Institute and initiated his M. Tech dissertation work to officially begin from the next semester.
This year, IIT, Kharagpur has awarded M. Tech degrees to two of our in-house researchers who carried out
part of their experimental and simulation work of their respective dissertation work at our Creativity Centre.
The first ever National level technology exhibition TechnoCraze-2013 originated from this Centre (see
Annexure BI).

Centre for Renewable and
Non-conventional Energy Studies and Research
Non-conventional and renewable energy has a great role in recent time’s energy development. With the
increasing cost and the ever increasing energy demands, coal, oil and uranium would lose their importance
in the near future. With the fear of the exhaustion of the conventional sources of energy it is always an
exciting prospect to develop researches on the extraction of energy from non-conventional energy sources.
The use of conventional sources of energy has polluted the environment with its by-product like acid rain
and global warming which has been countered by the effectiveness and clean nature of the non-conventional
energy resources. The abundance and easy availability of energies such as solar, wind and tidal has made
engineers and scientists give it a thought on the possibilities of harnessing these energy sources.
In the year 1947, the total power generation capacity in India was only 1360MW. By 1991, it grew to 65,000MW
of which around 45,000MW (69%) was generated in thermal plants. According to the 10th Plan, 2007, the
total power generation capacity of the thermal, the hydroelectric and the other types of power plants
(excluding nuclear power plants) are 58,000MW, 23,000MW and 81,000MW, respectively. However, the
total installed capacity of the country has crossed to 200GW, with a record capacity addition of 54,964MW
in the 11th plan which is about two and half times the capacity added in the 10th plan.
To cater to the need of energy in the days to
come, more and more alternative sources of
energy need to be explored and make them
consumable for the end users. The main objective
of the Centre is to provide an intensified support
in higher engineering education with a continuous
emphasis on research and development in the
field of renewable and non-conventional energy
sources. It has aimed at training young engineers
and supporting budding researchers to work in
the areas of renewable energy, energy
conservation, and sustainable energy systems.
The Centre has targeted to put a tireless effort
for enhancing the prospect of alternative energy
sources.
IBM Systems Centre of Excellence
Considering the indispensability of software knowledge in the domain of IT as well as IT-enabled industry
and core industries and keeping in view the feeble job market in hardware sectors, particularly in West
Bengal, we approached the world famous computer organisation IBM to help us cover the syllabus so as
to bridge the gap between the industry requirements and the syllabus-centric study. Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) has already been signed with IBM and the Institute has thus earned the distinction
of becoming the IBM Systems Centre of Excellence. The course contents are (a) System PELTP (b) System
Z (c) Linux ELTP (d) System IELTP. The classes that have been conducted under the programme since
February 2012 has proved to be of immense value to students in making them prepared in the perspective
of the present job scenario. Moreover, the programme provides professional recognition to students through
IBM-authorised certification; identifies the students under the programme as the IBM prospective candidates
for a job; and gives them an opportunity for their names to be forwarded to the IBM Customer Service
System.

Finite-Element Analysis and Design Centre
The finite element analysis (FEA), also known as the finite element method (FEM), is a numerical method
for the solution of a complex system of partial differential equations subject to prescribed boundary
conditions. The method uses the concept of piecewise polynomial interpolation. In FEM, the solution region
is cut into a finite number of elements, which are then reconnected at nodes as if the latter were ‘drops
of glue’ holding the elements together. In this method, in steps (i) the governing equation for a typical
element is derived; (ii) all the elements in the solution region are assembled; and (iii) the system of equations
is solved. The FEM is capable of handling more complex problem geometries than could be done by the
finite difference method (FDM) since, unlike in FDM, it has the ability to find the values at any point inside
the solution region rather than at any discrete grid point.
By the early 70's, FEM found extensive use in aeronautics, automotive, defence and nuclear industries. With
the phenomenal increase in the computing power, FEM became a tool of incredible precision. Present day
supercomputers are now able to produce accurate results using FEM for all kinds of parameters. Both 2-
D and 3-D types of modelling of a complex system are used for FEM. 2-D modelling yields less accurate
results though it conserves simplicity and allows the analysis to be run on a relatively normal computer
while 3-D modelling yields more accurate results at the cost of the speed of computation and demanding
faster computing facility. Both the types of modelling facilitate the incorporation of a variety of algorithms
that can allow the system to behave linearly or nonlinearly.
FEM software provides a wide range of simulation options for controlling the complexity of both modelling
and analysis of a system. Similarly, the desired level of accuracy required and associated computational
time requirements can be managed simultaneously to address most engineering applications. FEM allows
the entire design to be constructed, refined, and optimized before the design is translated to a product.
Several modern FEM packages like ANSYS Multiphysics include specific components such as thermal,
electrostatic, electromagnetic, fluid, and structural analysis. In a structural simulation, FEM helps in producing
stiffness and strength visualizations and also in minimizing weight, materials, and costs. Some of the other
FEM packages are COSMOS (for mechanical engineering), FLOWTHERM (for fluid dynamics), NASTRAN
(for aerodynamics), ANSOFT-HFSS (for electron-beam-absent (cold) analysis of electromagnetic structures),
ANSYS-MAGIC (particle-in-cell code for electron-beam-wave interaction, for instance, in particle accelerators
and microwave tubes/vacuum electron devices), and so on. Further, the combination with the finite integration
technique also allows the simulation using the other software like CST Microwave Studio. The use of
appropriate FEM software considerably reduces the number of trials of actual fabrication thereby considerably
reducing the cost and time of manufacturing products.
The Finite-Element Analysis and Design Centre of SKFGI is aimed at
w exploiting the strong knowledge base in FEM available at Applied Science Department of SKFGI
w carrying out original research in FEM that can be used to make the existing software more friendly, less
time consuming and more accurate
w involving undergraduate and postgraduate students in taking up projects of practical relevance
w carrying out research programmes in liaison with Centre for Renewable and Non-Conventional Energy
Studies and Research at SKFGI
w carrying out research programmes in liaison with Sir J. C. Bose Creativity Centre of SKFGI
w collaborating with CSIR-CEERI, Pilani under the existing MoU
w collaborating with NB Institute for Rural Technology, Kolkata under the existing MoU
w interacting with DRDO-MTRDC, Bangalore in the area of microwave tubes and
w carrying out sponsored projects in the area of the design and analysis of devices and systems of practical
relevance.
MoU with CSIR-CEERI, Pilani
SKFGI is perhaps the only Institute in this part of the country to have Memorandum of Understanding
(MoU) of its engineering Institution, namely, Sir J. C. Bose School of Engineering, with one of the most
prestigious National laboratories of CSIR, namely, Central Electronics Engineering Research Institute
(CEERI), Pilani (Rajasthan) to “promote academic and research linkage through collaborative academic and
research endeavours for the cause of the advancement of learning.”
Such a ‘landmark’ in establishing an understanding with a Government laboratory has become all the more
important now in that CSIR-CEERI, besides contributing to the progress of the country through R&D, has
now become one of the constituents of the coveted Academy of Scientific and Innovative Research (AcSIR)
of CSIR. This success in establishing the collaboration with a National laboratory has been made possible
by the reputation of our Institute through the contribution of the faculty members of our Institute in
reviewing and steering the progress of the ongoing projects at CSIR-CEERI as well as through the evidence
our Institute has already shown by jointly organising with CSIR-CEERI the National and International
conferences on engineering education, hosted at our Campus.
Both the participating Institutes (SKFGI and CSIR-CEERI) under this MOU have ensured that all activities
within the framework of the understanding are taken up keeping in view the mission and vision of both the
organisations. Thus, through this agreement we have opened a new vista to the students of our Institute,
who now get an opportunity to be trained through the state-of-the-art technology. Both the Institutes have
agreed under the programme to share the expenditure towards the travel and local hospitality involved in
the mutual visits of the concerned personnel encompassing students, teachers, and scientists. The
understanding includes the extension of the infrastructural facilities, the provision of subsistence allowances
to students, and so on. Besides the undergraduate (B. Tech) programme, the postgraduate (M. Tech) and
the doctoral (Ph. D) programmes have also been brought within the purview of the MOU. While the scope
in terms of the areas of collaboration under the MOU has been made wide open, we have identified some
of them as VLSI design, embedded system, image processing, wireless sensor network, process control
instrumentation, communication system for disaster management, optoelectronics, microwave photonics,
RF and microwave MEMS, slow-wave and fast-wave microwave tubes, terahertz devices, electromagnetic
simulation, structural and thermal analysis, and so on.

Ph.D Programme
The doctoral research programme is carried out in the Institute. This year a student has submitted his Ph.D
thesis to WBUT under the supervision of Professor B. N. Biswas in the field of Electronics and Communication
Engineering (Annexure BI) while five other students registered in various other universities (including
Calcutta University and Jadavpur University) under him are on the verge of submitting their theses. The
other faculty members are also either supervising or carrying out doctoral research.
Post Graduation: A Need of the Hour
It will never be possible to teach everything required for a 21st century engineer in a 4-year graduate
engineering course. As such it has been generally agreed in the world forum that a 4-year engineering
course be followed by a 2-year master’s programme in an environment of Ph.D and R & D activities.
In line with the essential need, SKFGI, among the premier Institutes, has ceaselessly attempted and become
successful to introduce the M. Tech program in the academic session 2012-2013. In its glorious start, we
offer M. Tech programme affiliated to WBUT and approved by AICTE in the following disciplines:
Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) - Intake: 18

Higher Studies in Electronics and Communication
Engineering: Comprehensive Thoughts
Introduction
We humans are wonderful communicators because
of a unique inheritance of our species. However,
human communication practice did not change
rapidly in prehistoric and ancient times in spite of
our ceaseless quest for sharing thoughts and ideas
with our neighbours [Communication ‘Communico’
(Latin) meaning ‘to share’]. The progress of society
(essentially people in communication) depends on
the dissemination of information (i.e. using
communication technique). Communication
innovations were very slow in those days as
compared to those in the last 100 years. The need
and importance of communication system as well
as its progress was beautifully illustrated in the cover
page of an IEEE communication magazine. This is
illustrated in the adjoining diagram (Fig.1). The danger
of a flying pterodactyl is disseminated by beating a wooden plank with the help of bones. This also signifies
our inability to overcome the barrier of distance and time in those days, whereas in modern times it is done
with the help of satellite communication technique. This demonstrates the death of distance and time in
establishing a communication link.
62 | Prospectus 2013
Prospectus 2013 | 63

In the last 100 years, more and more new form of electronic communication systems have been developed
[because of our ceaseless efforts for innovation of
communication technique] than throughout almost
400 centuries which separate us from the homo
sapiens. During the last 50 years, more people are
communicating in more ways than in any of our prior
history, using the large number of electronic devices
and systems. The growth of electronics and
communication systems is exponentially increasing
in both reach and richness. This is illustrated in Fig.2.
This Himalayan Progress in electronics and
communication systems will bring about a great wave
of social changes as associated with two earlier
revolutions in the history of mankind, viz. Renaissance
and Industrial Revolution. This will throw open vast
job prospects in the field of electronics and
communication engineering.
Using a combination of electronics communication system and computer technologies, the new millennium
has begun with the scenario where more people using a single mobile phone can converse face to face,
download from website at an unbelievable speed, listen to music, watch TV, play games, switch on the rice
cooker and so on. In about a couple of years from now, the people using 5G mobile phone, based on Cognitive
Radio principle, can make an emergency call through a dense and crowded communication environments
without listening to “ the channel is busy”. This is achieved using the philosophy: “where the home is”. The
world of science fiction is now only few clicks away.
Further Fig.2 illustrates a vast interesting application-domain of electronics and communication engineering.
It is nothing surprising as the catalyst of the progress is humans’ eternal quest to talk to each other freely
ignoring political boundaries. Again each of the fields of electronics and communications is flourishing
resulting better and better job prospects and at the same demanding creative ideas. Incidentally, it does
not matter in which country the jobs are opening because any one can migrate to any where due to
‘globalisation’ and ‘flat earth concept’. But there is a little ‘but’, you have to be ‘global engineer’ holding a
degree from a University accredited according to Washington Accord and have excellent communication
skills that cross disciplines, culture and languages.
Divergence of fields demanding more and more areas of specialisation have thrown open vistas of
opportunities. It is only necessary and important that the aspiring students must have to learn how to love
learning. Then whatever he/she learns will be implanted in his / her subconscious mind influencing his /
her thought process in the positive direction.
Versatility of ECE
The development of the art of communication, oral and visual, led to the subject of Electronics and
Communication Engineering (ECE), whereas the development of art of communication between man and
machine led to the subject of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE). Obviously, CSE is junior to ECE.
The exact age-difference is difficult to ascertain. Some say that it is approximately one hundred years.
Although CSE has a different origin, yet its entire development owes much to ECE.
The progress of society depends on information – the data that have meaning to human beings. The end
product of information is knowledge/wisdom whose use-value unlike material productions (like, soaps,
clothes etc.) is not lost in the process of consumption but accumulate endlessly and produce new results.
Thus information is one of the nation’s critical resources for services, industries as well as manufacturing
for economic development and national security. The tremendous growth of information led to the
64 | Prospectus 2013
development of a technology that equips a human being with the ability to apply or use information. This
is termed as Information Technology (IT). Therefore, IT has two aspects, viz., one that focuses on the
content, i.e., “information” and the other that focuses on the form, i.e. “Infrastructure”. Key technology
areas of IT are located in the domains of ECE and CSE – indicating an intimate relationship. ECE, CSE and
IT differ in their application areas, but from a philosophical viewpoint they are blood brothers. That is ECE
is the base-subject. Thus those who are trained in the art and technology of ECE can easily migrate to the
domain of CSE, IT and ICT – it is simply rowing down the stream. Electronics (microwave) technology plays
a key role in the development of invisible hardware and software – a big leap towards Communication
Revolution – ushering a new era of progress, prosperity and opportunity. It appears that it is easier to stop
a speeding bullet in the mid air than Communication Revolution in its track.
Global Nature of the Job Market
This is one aspect of the need of technical education for the present century. The other side of the problem,
i.e. the integration of the different branches of technical education, is beautifully illustrated by Ron Zarella,
Chief Executive Officer of Bausch and Lomb:
“We make a product called Interplak. The electromechanical design for this home plaque-removal device
is done in Germany and Japan. The batteries are supplied from Japan, the motors are built in the Peoples
Republic of China, the charging base is made in Hong Kong, the precision-made plastic pieces are
manufactured in Atlanta, Georgia, the brush head is made in Ohio, and the final assembly is done in
Mexico.”
Therefore, in the present age an engineer trained in one country works in another country with different
cultures. This is not all. He is dealing with a product assembled in that country but the components of the
product are bought from various countries. This clearly emphasizes not a strong background of fundamentals
but also a need of R & D outlook.
Fall out of the Flat Earth Philosophy
i) Communication capability of the engineers is equally important to his knowledge. Excellent communication
skill that crosses disciplines, cultures and languages is a need of the hour. "Communication is more
than a vehicle for transmitting what we know--it also affects what we know”.
ii)
21st Century engineering education must be broad based with ample scope for learning beyond the
syllabus, substantial reduction of the emphasis on syllabus–centric teaching, attention to innovative
learner-centric teaching, excellent communication skills that cross disciplines, cultures and languages.
Course Structure
The course should also emphasize on
“how to solve problems”, the need for
life long learning and the need for
developing creativity. Theories,
principles, and problem solving
techniques must be weaved in such way
so as to resemble like stories that first
captivate the students and entice them
back again and again. There lies the
beauty and charm of engineering
education. Otherwise, meaning of
studying engineering education is lost.
It is like trying to discover the beauty
of Venice by going through the canals
with a submarine.

Recommendations of World Body
How to integrate all these aspects in a 4-year graduate engineering course It will never be possible to
teach everything required when they go to work after four years – even many parallel tracks and elective
courses are offered. National academy of Engineering of the National Academies USA has made the
following recommendations:
w
w
w
w
w
The baccalaureate degree should be considered as a pre-engineering or “engineer in training” degree.
Master degree can be recognized as the engineering “professional” degree.
Institutes should endorse research in engineering education as a valued and rewarded activity for
engineering faculty. Because the new curriculum and the faculty the two together can reinforce the
idea.
Institutions should encourage domestic students to obtain M.S/M Tech and Ph.D. degrees.
They shall have to be benchmarked as per the principles of Washington Accord, a ten-member apex
global organisation that determines standards of engineering degree.

M. Tech in Electrical Engineering
(Electrical Devices and Power Systems)
Higher Studies in Electrical Engineering:
Some Comprehensive Thoughts
The discipline of electrical engineering is embedded in science and in mathematics. If a disciple of this branch
of engineering enjoys science and mathematics then electrical engineering will surely be a fascinating and
rewarding field of study for him/her with many opportunities to solve key engineering problems. Sub-domains
within this discipline widely range from exploration of information and its communication through material
physics that results in innovation of new devices and the circuits made from them, to the algorithms that run
on next generation computing platforms.
The subtler essence of the discipline has placed its adorer in a comfortable position so as to address a variety
of the crucial engineering issues that civilization is facing today. The main issues of today’s society are
predominantly three folds: if the first concern is the “Energy”, the second is obviously “Information” and the
last but not the least is the “Health”.
SKFGI’s vibrant department of Electrical Engineering with its relatively young and dynamic faculty and other
academic staff is actively engaged in teaching and research on many topics related to these challenges to cater
to the global scenario.
The faculty of Electrical Engineering Department at SKFGI, in conjunction with its constituents, has established
the following educational objectives for the post-graduate students.
w The postgraduate students should have a strong foundation in the areas of mathematics, basic sciences and
should gain the knowledge of core electrical engineering fundamentals to develop abilities necessary for
specialization in all areas of electrical engineering.
w The postgraduate students should develop problem solving and design skills for devising and evaluating
solutions for problems related to electrical engineering, including design of components, systems, and
experiments.
w The postgraduate students should be well-informed about the present and emerging technologies that are
significant in connection to electrical engineering.
w The postgraduate students should be well-prepared for doctoral research.
w The postgraduate students should embrace and foster an environment that encourages creativity and
enthusiasm for life-long learning.
w The postgraduate students must develop professional attributes like communication skills, teamwork, ethics,
and an appreciation for other disciplines, both technical and non-technical, in order to deal with the impact
of technology in a global, societal, and organizational context.
To strengthen the applied knowledge of the students of any branch of engineering, laboratories are an integral
part of the course. The department of Electrical Engineering at SKFGI offers its postgraduate students a number
of laboratory courses through which they can get first hand knowledge about a number of very specialized
software that are widely used in industries to solve real time problem. The students are given an exposure to
realize the simulated results through hardware realization. The facilities offered to the post graduate students
at SKFGI are comparable to the best in industries.

C
Dr. P. C. Mahalanabish School of Management
The B-School with a difference

“Statistics must have a clearly defined purpose, one aspect of which is scientific advance
and the other human welfare and national development.”
Professor Prasanta Chandra Mahalanobis
Professor Prasanta Chandra Mahalanobis was a physicist by
training, a statistician by instinct and economist by conviction.
It is most interesting and surprising to know that his achievements
were in fields in which he had no formal training and degree.
That is why the famous biologist J. B. S. Haldane praised
Mahalanobis by saying the following:
“I consider it desirable that a man’s or woman’s major
research work should be in a subject in which he or she
has not taken a degree. To get degree one has to learn a
lot of facts and theories in a somewhat parrot like manner.
It is rather hard to be highly original in a subject in which
one has learned with a view of obtaining first class honours
in an examination.” ---- J. B. S. Haldane, FRS
Mahalanobis was born on 29th June, 1893 in Calcutta. Even at a very early age he came under the influence
of Rabindranath Tagore who took a liking to young Mahalanobis, being particularly impressed by the
combination in him of a love of literature with a flair for logical analysis.
Mahalanobis graduated from Presidency College and received B. Sc. Honors in Physics from Calcutta
University 1912. In 1914, he took Part I of the Mathematical Tripos but changed over to Physics and passed
the Natural Science Tripos, Part II, with a first class in 1915 from King’s College. It was at Cambridge
Mahalanobis met the famous mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan. In 1915, he completed his Tripos in
Physics. He also worked for a short duration at Cavendish Laboratory with C.T.R. Wilson, a Nobel Laureate
in Physics. It was during this time he took a short break and came to India. He then met the Principal of
Presidency College who invited him to take classes in Physics. It is here he analyzed examination results
using the statistical methods. He enjoyed this work so much that he left physics and fell into love with
facts, figures, graphs and charts. Upon returning to England, he was introduced to the journal Biometrika.
The journal interested him so much that he purchased the complete set and took them to India. On his
way back to India, he discovered the utility of statistics to problems in meteorology, anthropology and
began working on the same. Statistics later became his lifelong love and passion and he pursued statistical
work in India mentored by Acharya Brajendranath Seal. Before Mahalanobis arrived on the scene, statistics
was virtually unknown in India.
Professor P. C. Mahalanobis’s contribution to the subject of statistics is incredibly varied. Mahalanobis had
held the position of Statistical Advisor to the Government of India and Member, Planning Commission.
After independence he was appointed Statistical Advisor to the newly formed cabinet. He drafted India’s
Second Five Year Plan in 1955, which envisaged rapid industrialization to eliminate unemployment.
Mahalanobis received many awards from academic societies all over the world for his contributions to
statistics and economic planning. He received the Weldon Medal from Oxford University in 1944 and was
elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS), London, in 1945 for his fundamental contributions to statistics,
particularly in the area of large-scale sample surveys. The Government of India honoured him with the
Padma Vibhushan, in 1968. He was appointed Chairman of the United Nations Sub-Commission on Statistical
Sampling. As the Chairman of the UN Statistical Commission, he also helped in the spread of robust and
extremely useful statistical ideas to other countries.
The work of Mahalanobis clearly demonstrates that statistics is not simply a collection of complicated
techniques but adds value to the process of management and decision making. Without the ability to think
statistically and to understand and interpret data, managers have to resort to gut reactions, which are
invariably misguided and unreliable. The ability to think statistically is an essential and important skill of
any successful manager. Because of this reason conferences are regularly held in USA on the theme of
“Making Statistics More Effective in Schools of Business”.
And for this we salute the father of Indian statistics, P. C. Mahalanobis who breathed his last on 28th June
1972, at the age of 79.
As a mark of our respect,
Dr. P. C. Mahalanabish School of Management
is our humble tribute to him!

MBA @ SKFGI: Smarter Manager. Better Leader.
Dr. P. C. Mahalanabish School of Management, which is one of the two constituents of SKFGI, is well known
for its academic and research activities in the various areas of business administration and management
science including finance, business economics, marketing, systems, advertising and publicity, security
analysis and portfolio management, supply chain management, operation research, and human resource
development. We also extensively practice statistics in learning the process of management and decision
making thereby making relevant the existence of our school that is named after the father of statistics.
The School offers the two-year, full-time postgraduate programme in Master of Business Administration
(MBA) affiliated to WBUT and approved by AICTE. The school now is all set to launch its fifth batch of
students for the session 2013-2015.
Focused on its goal to take a leading role in management education in the country, the school has proved
its worth with a difference in terms of quality infrastructure, efficient faculty with innovative academic
delivery, lifestyle management and soft skill development with a thrust on the development of the
communication ability of students thereby enabling the school to generate globally fit managers for industries
and business organisations. For this purpose, benefiting from the fallout of several rounds of brain storming
sessions organised at our Institute, which are enlightened by the deliberation of a pool of management
experts from industrial and academic sectors, we have developed a scientific and standardized educational
system to shape the careers of our students.
We also take due care in going ahead beyond the syllabus-centric training of our students to improve their
core competencies through intense industry interactions and adequate hand-on experiences. Further, we
have a continuous lifestyle management programme that emphasizes on the development of students’
personality, health, attitude and aptitude, thereby fully gearing them up to meet the challenges of the
Corporate World. The excellent teaching, the work culture, the team spirit, the discipline, the dedication
and the creation of an urge to excel in the global market have made the life of MBA students at SKFGI
amazing and full of excitements.
In-Vironment: a Learning Approach of the School

environment, which imparts education that is essentially:
w Mentor-mentee driven
w Student-led and faculty-guided

w Value-added and
w Supportive of personality development.
Pedagogy of the School

Placement
In order to stand out in the present competitive world, we emphasize on managerial leadership that requires
both excellent functional skills and exceptional business outlook. The Corporate Relation Affairs (CRA)
Division of our Institute takes due care to implant these skills and outlook so that the students of the School
are appropriately placed in the business world. It aims in matching the requirement of the recruiters with
the aspiration of the students. Thus, right from the word go, the students in the Institute passes through
a well designed learning process, which is designed according to the prescribed syllabus of WBUT and, at
the same time, which is oriented towards and aligned to the placement of students. See the details of
placement and related activities of the CRA Division (see Part A for the details of activities of the CRA
Division) Page 21 to 29.
Summer Internship: Learning by doing
We seriously believe in the necessity of providing a bridge between theory and practice and as such we
take care to see that our MBA students could learn how to apply the conceptual tools learned by them in
real world situations. As such we open up learning-by-doing opportunities to our students through the
Summer Internship Programme arranged by us. Thus, the students acquire hand on experience in actual
business world outside the Institute.
Through this programme, the Institute builds up a collaborative relation with the industrial and the corporate
sectors. From this programme, on the one hand, our Institute learn as how to tune our teaching programme
to actual requirements and on the other hand, these sectors also get an opportunity to identify potential
budding MBA graduates for employment. The CRA Division of our Institute, besides executing the placement
programme described earlier, takes care of arranging the summer internship of our students.
Value Addition to Curriculum
While imparting regular teaching according to the prescribed syllabus of WBUT, the Institute takes care in
offering the following value-added programmes with a view to providing a wider professional exposure to
our students, it being implied that the Institute would bear the expenditure towards the implementation of
such programmes and that no extra fees would be charged from the students for this purpose:
w ERP/SAP training
w Personality Development Programme
w Entrepreneurship Development Programme and
w Regular visits to leading industries.
Through the execution of the above programmes we develop in our students:
w Managerial Competence: by teaching them the basic concepts of the subjects such as marketing, finance,
problem analysis and solution, giving due emphasis on the promotion of interpersonal skills.
w Global Mindset: by inculcating in them the awareness of the economic, social and political trends while
also infusing in them the curiosity and the cultural sensitivity, and
w Leadership and Personal Development: by teaching them as to how to harness their ambition by
mobilizing the energies around them as well as how to lead a team to reach the envisaged target.

Corporate visits @ SKFGI
Dean & Head of the Department
Appreciating that simple theoretical frameworks and tools, while they are helpful, do not always match the
complexity of real business situations, we arrange regular visits of the eminent personalities to our Institute
from the corporate sector to enlighten our students through their lectures and deliberations. These expert
lectures deal with relatively broader and multidisciplinary issues. From time to time we also arrange for
our students the seminars on the real business practices by external experts, which, though they are based
on the university curriculum, often go beyond the syllabus so that the students of our Institute could benefit
from the experience and practical expertise of these experts on the ever expanding field of business
administration.

Activities of Sir J. C. Bose Creativity Centre
During the last academic year the activities of Sir J. C. Bose Creativity Centre have been evidenced by the
presentation of research papers at various national and international conferences as well as the publication
of research papers in peer-reviewed journals. (However, we have listed here only the papers published/accepted
for publication in journals in the previous session). We are also carrying out, at the premises of this Centre,
some of the activities of the sister centres of SKFGI, namely, Centre for Renewable and Non-Conventional
Energy Studies and Research and Finite-Element Analysis and Design Centre, until the infrastructure of
the latter is fully established.
The Centre is led by the great visionary, scientist and teacher (who received the VEDA Lifetime Achievement
Award this year): Professor (Dr.) B. N. Biswas, the Chairman, Education Division of SKFGI. Dr. S. N. Joshi
of CSIR-CEERI inaugurated the Centre. The facilities of the Centre are maintained by the faculty members
of the Institute including Mr. Subhradeep Pal. The Centre coordinates the Conference series that our Institute
hosts: “Engineering Education in the New Century” (E2NC) every year at our Institute. The final-year B.
Tech students: Mr. Ravi Raj and Mr. Avishek Das brilliantly conceived and conducted, under the supervision
of their teachers Mr. Subhradeep Pal and Mrs. Sukanya Dutta, Head, AEIE Department, and with support
from their student counterparts, the first ever technology exhibition at the Institute: TechCraze-2013 as a
pre-conference event of E2NC-2013. Mrs. Srima Nandi, Head, HU Department, with a strong support from
her teacher counterparts Mrs. Jhulan Dasgupta and Mrs. Sukanya Dutta and our dedicated student volunteers,
hosted the inaugural programmes of E2NC-2013 and TechCraze-2013 that earned the praise for our Institute
of acclaimed scientists and academicians from all over the country.
Our Centre also arranged its support to one of the teachers of a neighbouring institution in the city: Mr.
Somnath Chatterjee, by arranging for him the guidance of Professor (Dr.) Biswas, which has enabled him
to submit his Ph. D thesis to WBUT this year; his work has been authenticated by a large number of research
papers published in the journals. There are many such scientists and teachers benefiting from the guidance
provided at the Centre by Professor (Dr.) Biswas are on the verge of submitting their theses for the award
of the Ph. D degree of various other universities.
It is heartening to mention that as many as 13 B. Tech students evidenced their original research in peerreviewed
journals this year. The students who achieved this feat are: S. Guha Mallick, Koyel Datta, Raya
Ghosh, Monalisa Sarkar, Roshmy Sanyal, Moumita Ghosh, Mangolika Mondal, Aritra Mondal, Nayan
Banerjee, Jit Chakraborty, Kausik Das, Subir Kumar Datta and Pritam De. We are fortunate to have in
our faculty member: Mr. Aritra Acharyya to take a major share in supervising the publication of their
research. Mr. Subhradeep Pal also motivated his students under the overall supervision of Professor (Dr.)
Biswas to publish papers. Professor (Dr.) Abhijit Lahiri also contributed to this list. The B. Tech students
co-authoring papers in peer-reviewed journals with their mentors have been highlighted by underlining
their names in bold face in the following list. (We have excluded the conference papers and mentioned
only the journal papers published in the session 2012-2013).
