PREFACE

Dear Students,

Since it started in the year 1946, NIE is promoting excellence in education through highly qualified faculty members and modern infrastructure. The Board of Directors believes in continuous improvement in delivery of technical education. Thanks to Karnataka government that designed and developed a seamless admission process through CET, many highly meritorious pre-university passed students are joining NIE, which has become a brand name among hundreds of colleges in the country. Infact, NIE is one of the top ten preferred colleges where all the seats got filled-up in the first round of 2015 admissions.

The concerted efforts of stake holders at NIE have made it get autonomous status, prestigious TEQIP-I & II and get accreditation from National Board of Accreditation, New Delhi. NIE has been granted permanent affiliation by VTU to all its courses.

Today NIE has of 7 UG, 13 PG and 5 Post-graduate Diploma programmes and 13 Centres of Excellence with overall student strength of over 3500. NIE's journey to excellence, with the main objective of continuous improvements of administrative and academic competence, is envisioned through three major pillars: intellectual infrastructure, courses/services offerings and institution building.

Our curriculum is designed to develop problem-solving skill in students and build good academic knowledge. Dr. G.L.Shekar July 2016 Principal

BLUEPRINT OF SYLLABUS STRUCTURE AND QUESTION PAPER PATTERN

Blue Print of Syllabus Structure

1. Complete syllabus is prescribed in SIX units as Unit 1, Unit 2, etc.

2. In each unit there is one topic under the heading “Self Learning Exercises” (SLE). These are the topics to be learnt by the student on their own under the guidance of the course instructors. Course instructors will inform the students about the depth to which SLE components are to be studied. Thus there will be six topics in the complete syllabus which will carry questions with a weightage of 10% in SEE only. No questions will be asked on SLE components in CIE.

Blue Print of Question Paper

1. Question paper will have SEVEN full questions.

2. One full question each of 15 marks (Question No 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6) will be set from each unit of the syllabus. Out of these six questions, two questions will have internal choice from the same unit. The unit from which choices are to be given is left to the discretion of the course instructor.

Question No 7 will be set for 10 marks only on those topics prescribed as “Self Learning Exercises”.
