2.	Comparative Study of Religion: Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, the 'Sant Mat' and Modern Religious movements (to ingrain an attitude of tolerance and a sense of national integration and inculcate moral and spiritual values).	One
3.	Scientific Methodology, General Knowledge and Current affairs: (to nurture a scientific temper and be aware of contemporary developments).	Four
4.	Rural Development: Study of rural society and economy (to foster a fuller understanding of the rural life with a view to appreciate properly the polity and the economy of our country and the social forces at work).	One
5.	Agricultural operations	Two
6.	Social Service: (to engender the spirit of brotherhood of man and to facilitate the establishment of casteless and classless society). (a) Village adoption for rural reconstruction (b) Adult and Continuing Education Programme	Four
7.	Co-curricular Activities: Cultural & Literary activities, Games, Sports and Discipline etc. (for all-round development of personality)	Four

Component-wise Weightage: For Major subjects, it varies from about 50% in the first two semesters to about 90% in other semesters. For the rest, it varies from about 50% in the first two semesters to about 10% in other semesters.

F.	Practical Training: Every student has to undergo practical training during the summers in industrial concerns of repute, approved by the faculty for the purpose. The period is distributed as under: (a) After II Semester: Intensive Practical Training in the Faculty Workshop and Local Industries for 3 weeks. (b) After IV Semester: Practical Training in approved Industries near the student's place of stay for 40 days. (c) After VI Semester: Practical Training in selected industries of repute for 40 days.
G.	Specializations: Apart from the broad based General Electrical Engineering the following two specializations are available for the students of Electrical Engineering Branch: (i) Specialization in Electronics (ii) Specialization in Computer Applications Similarly, apart from the broad based General Mechanical Engineering, the following two specializations are available to the students of Mechanical Engineering Branch: (i) Specialization in Industrial Engineering (ii) Specialization in Computer Applications (Students can opt for these specializations at the end of fourth Semester)

Component-wise Weightage: For main Engineering Courses, it is about 35% in the first semester but goes up to about 87% in the final (VIII) semester. For Basic Sciences, Humanities & Management Sciences, Rural Engineering, Seminars and Group Discussions and Co-curricular Activities, it is about 65% in the first semester but goes down to about 13% in the final semester.

Philosophy behind the innovative components is similar to the points mentioned in case of B.A., B.A. (Social Science), B.B.M., B.Com., B.Sc. (Home Science), B.Sc.

M.A., M.A. (Social Science), M.B.A., M.Com., M.Sc. (Home Science), M.Sc.

The contents of these courses, their methods of teaching and evaluation are also innovative on the general pattern. The duration of the courses is four terms consisting of three semesters plus a summer term. At least two semesters are spent on course work, and the summer term and most of the last (third) semester on dissertation/project work.

M.Tech.

M.Tech. is offered in Engineering Systems and in Computer Science. The duration of the courses is four semesters plus a summer term. However for part-time M.Tech. programme, the normal duration is eight semesters plus summer terms. M.Tech in Computer Science is offered by the Physics & Computer Science Department of the Faculty of Science as a full-time programme of four semesters plus a summer term.

M.Ed.

The duration of the course is of two semesters.

M.Phil.

The M.Phil. programme is normally of 2 semester duration. It is offered both in open mode and in dual degree mode. M.Phil. in Education is offered in open mode with the session starting in July each year. The M.Phil. programme in dual degree mode is of 2 semesters each of 4 months. The first semester commences from January to April and the second from May to August each year. It is open only to students of the DEI of all PG classes and scholars registered for Ph.D. of the respective departments. The post-graduate students can opt for an additional course in their final semester, the credits so earned being counted for their M.Phil. programme.

Ph.D.

It is a full-time course, only the staff of the Institute is registered as part-time research scholars. Ph.D. programme is available in all the post-graduate departments of the Institute. A provision is available for students to register under joint guidance of a staff member of the DEI as main guide and a co-guide at any other institute of higher learning which has signed MoU with the DEI. Applications for Ph.D. are accepted twice in each year in the months of February and August.

The Institute has fully implemented the UGC 2009 Guidelines for M.Phil. and Ph.D. Admissions are made strictly on merit through Research Entrance Test (RET), interview and academic merit. One semester course work is compulsory for candidates joining Ph.D. without M.Phil. degree.
