Basic Sciences

What is Basic Sciences ?

The Department of Basic Sciences comprises the primary disciplines of mathematics, chemistry and physics which support specialized inter disciplinary fields of teaching and research. Department of Basic Sciences is one of the indispensable departments of SISTec. It imparts excellent quality education in the area of Applied Sciences (Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry) and Humanities i.e., Communication skills for the future technocrats of all streams. It also aims to provide a strong foundation in the fundamental sciences. Students of engineering are provided with the basic tools of analysis as well as the knowledge of the principles on which engineering is based. The department also strives to instill the scientific temper and the spirit of enquiry in students. It encourages the students to understand and therefore apply the physical laws to the development of their fields of study.

Vision of Department

To become an institution of excellence in Science & Technology, by imparting world-class quality education and relevant training; producing skilled, competent & innovative workforce having social and ethical concern towards nation building.

Mission of Department

To create SISTec, as a center of excellence for imparting technical & scientific knowledge through rigorous academic, technological interventions, skilled faculty, character building approach and entrepreneur mind set for the betterment of society.

Activity

Fresher’s Combat

Fresher’s Combat is organized for the students of first year giving them the platform to showcase their overwhelming talent and exceptional skills. Although the word combat literally means a tussle among the equals for the same desirable thing, here the intention as well as the outcome is entirely different. The event witnesses first year students who are no less than mavericks with independent and unusual opinions at display. The variety of events included help enhance the personality, foster a rejuvenating environment and boost the confidence of students. This event can be marked as a stepping stone to a brighter and more convincing personality of the newly admitted students which will ultimately make them learn to create a balance between academics and co-curricular performance.

Fresher’s Party

It is considered to be the most memorable day in the life of every student. This kind of welcome symbolizes excitement, joy, enthusiasm, laughter and happiness. The college auditorium witnesses a large gathering of new faces, ambitious eyes and aspiring minds. The stage is ruled by spellbinding performances and cultural programmes by senior students followed by games that involve participation of the freshers. The faces of the day are identified as Ms. and Mr. Freshers after proving their talent.

Number Games

Number Games is a very distinctive initiative taken by the department in collaboration with the Corporate Training team. It is a numerical ability quiz organized exclusively for 1st and 2nd year students. The Grand Finale of the event is held on National Mathematics Day every year. It receives unparalleled response and active participation of students. The event has been popular amongst students because of its innovative approach and mass outreach due to online mode.

Visits and Excursions

Apart from Departmental visits to industries, exclusive excursions, visits and movies screenings are organized for the students of first year to places like Shourya Smarak, Tribal Museum, Van Vihar National Park etc. Through this, students learn new things and become more socially conscious and aware. It is also a medium to make students more comfortable and hence socialize more with fellow classmates, faculty members as well as with the outside world.

First Year Orientation Program

Applied Sciences Dept. of Sagar Institute of Science & Technology, Gandhi Nagar Bhopal, organizes an Orientation Programme "Shubhagham" for the new entrants. Fresher's mostly accompanied by parents, get their glimpse of college life and get a chance to interact with their new teachers and classmates. The objective of this programme is to groom and motivate the entrants to be good professionals, to inculcate the attributes and values of a professional and to develop a sense of commitment towards the nation and profession. This programme is being planned in terms of the refresher course and other activities so as to prepare the students to pursue their engineering with zeal and commitment.

Refresher Course

It is a short term course aimed at recall and reinforcement of previously acquired knowledge of English, Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Computer Science. Students sometimes do not have sufficient depth in their understanding, skills and abilities in a subject even after doing the course as part of the curriculum. This may be due to insufficient attention given to the course during 11th and 12th. This weakness makes it harder for students to fully understand and appreciate the advanced topics/courses. It has been observed over the years that students getting admission into graduate programs come from different backgrounds. To help incoming students overcome their weaknesses and to acquire the pre-requisites at the required level, Applied Sciences Dept. of SISTec has taken a unique initiative by introducing the concept of refresher course for incoming B.E. students.
