Admission in Chemical Engineering  in B.M.S College of Engineering

The department was started in 1995 by the great visionary, Late B S Narayan. Currently, the department runs an undergraduate course in Chemical Engineering with twelve teaching faculty. The department was NBA accredited for the duration of 5 years in the year 2004. Then, for the second time, the department was accredited in the year 2014 for a period of 5 years from NBA, India, in Tier-1 format under Washington Accord. 

The department had applied for a one-year extension of accreditation and was sanctioned with an extension for 1 year with compliance. The autonomous undergraduate course takes its cognizance from the program-specific criteria established in all reputed institutes offering courses in Chemical Engineering.

The well-balanced curriculum includes the titles like Basic Sciences (BS), Engineering Sciences (ES), Professional Core (PC), Professional Electives (PE), Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS), and Project Work (PW).

PG in Biochemical Engineering was run between the academic year 2013-14 to 2020-21.

Department Profile

The undergraduate program was started in the year 1995 with an intake of 30. Subsequently, the student intake was increased to 60 in the year 2002. The current intake of students is 60.

The department of Chemical Engineering was approved as Research Centre for Ph.D. and MSc. (Engg.) by research by AICTE in the year 2004. The research centre is affiliated to Visveswaraya Technological University (VTU) and approved by AICTE. Presently, the department has ten doctorate fellows as members of the faculty. One of the faculty members is pursuing PhD at NIT, Warangal, as an external candidate.

Four members are awarded doctoral degrees under the research centre. Presently, four research scholars are working for a doctoral degree. And one student has registered for M.Sc. by research under the research centre, Chemical Engineering department, BMSCE.

The department has an Industry (CMTI, Bengaluru)-Institute (BMSCE, Bengaluru) collaborated project under progress. Faculty are involved in consultancy work with various industries across the state. Also, some faculty members are experts in NBA accreditation and are evaluators of the accreditation process.

The department’s research facilities include instruments like Gas Chromatography (ionization detector, packed column, and thermal conductivity detector), High-pressure reactor (up to 50 atm. and 500℃), Total Organic Carbon analyzer, Roto Vap, Vacuum Distillation setup, Viscometer, Deep Freezer, UV-visible Spectrophotometer, Laboratory Fermenter, Cold Centrifuge, and FTIR.
