TECHNICAL CAMPUS (SOURCE :- WIKIPEDIA)

An institute of technology (also referred to as: technological university, technical university, university of technology, technological
educational institute, technical college, polytechnic university or just polytechnic, tech) is a type of university or college that specializes
in engineering, technology, applied science, and natural sciences.

THIS SYSTEM GENERALLLY FOLLOWS IN INDIA.


There are also Indian Institutes of Technology and National Institutes of Technology in India which are autonomous government
institutions. These institutions are Institutes of National Importance. In addition to these, there are many other universities which offer
higher technical courses. The authority controlling technical education in India is All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE)
and National Board of Accreditation (NBA).

There are polytechnic institutes in India that offer three years Diploma in Engineering after Tenth grade. These institutes have affiliation
from state boards of technical education and industrial training from respective state governments. After successfully completion of
diploma at a polytechnic, students can get employment or take admission in direct second year of Bachelor of
Technology (B.Tech)/Bachelor of Engineering (BE) (Lateral Entry).

DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL ENGINEERING


DURATION COURSE 4 YEARS
Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and
naturally built environment, including public works such as roads, bridges, canals, dams, airports, sewerage systems, pipelines, structural
components of buildings, and railways.
Civil engineering takes place in the public sector from municipal through to national governments, and in the private sector from
individual homeowners through to international companies.

General civil engineering is also referred to as site engineering, a branch of civil engineering that primarily focuses on converting a
tract of land from one usage to another. Site engineers spend time visiting project sites, meeting with stakeholders, and preparing
construction plans. Civil engineers apply the principles of geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, environmental
engineering, transportation engineering and construction engineering to residential, commercial, industrial and public works projects
of all sizes and levels of construction.

science. It is a sub-field of electronics engineering, focusing the digital electronics domain with added courses in computer architecture, processor
design, operating systems, high-performance computing, parallel processing, computer networks and embedded systems. CSE programs also include core
subjects of computer science such as theory of computation, design and analysis of algorithms, data structures and database systems. The program aims at
designing, developing and troubleshooting computing devices and systems (such as personal computers, supercomputers, robots, smartphones, networking
devices, embedded devices), focusing the underlying fundamental issues (like processor architecture design, operating system design, memory
management, digital system design, communication protocol design, system software development, application software development and database
management) in the most efficient and effective way. Emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning and data science are also
covered under these programs.

Computer science programs typically centers primarily around theory and software, with only some hardware[1]; upper division courses tend to allow a
lot of freedom to specialize in software and theory related areas (e.g. algorithms, artificial
intelligence, cryptography/security, graphics/visualization, numerical and symbolic computing, operating systems/distributed processing, software
engineering).

DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING


DURATION COURSE 4 YEARS

Electrical engineering is a technical discipline concerned with the study, design and application of equipment, devices and systems which
use electricity, electronics, and electromagnetism. It emerged as an identified activity in the latter half of the 19th century after commercialization of
the electric telegraph, the telephone, and electrical power generation, distribution and use.
Electrical engineering is now divided into a wide range of fields including, computer engineering, power engineering, telecommunications, radio-
frequency engineering, signal processing, instrumentation, and electronics. Many of these disciplines overlap with other engineering branches,
spanning a huge number of specializations including hardware engineering, power electronics, electromagnetics and waves, microwave engineering,
nanotechnology, electrochemistry, renewable energies, mechatronics, and electrical materials science. See glossary of electrical and electronics
engineering.

DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING


DURATION COURSE 4 YEARS
Mechanical engineering is the discipline that applies engineering physics, engineering mathematics, and materials science principles to design,
analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. It is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering disciplines.

The mechanical engineering field requires an understanding of core areas including mechanics, dynamics, thermodynamics, materials
science, structural analysis, and electricity. In addition to these core principles, mechanical engineers use tools such as computer-aided
design (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and product life cycle management to design and analyze manufacturing plants, industrial
equipment and machinery, heating and cooling systems, transport systems, aircraft, watercraft, robotics, medical devices, weapons, and others. It is the
branch of engineering that involves the design, production, and operation of machinery.

DEPARTMENT OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING
DURATION COURSE 4 YEARS
Chemical engineering is a branch of engineering that uses principles of chemistry, physics, mathematics, biology, and economics to efficiently use,
produce, design, transport and transform energy and materials. The work of chemical engineers can range from the utilisation of nano-technology and
nano-materials in the laboratory to large-scale industrial processes that convert chemicals, raw materials, living cells, microorganisms, and energy into
useful forms and products.

Chemical engineers are involved in many aspects of plant design and operation, including safety and hazard assessments, process design and
analysis, modeling, control engineering, chemical reaction engineering, nuclear engineering, biological engineering, construction specification, and
operating instructions.
Chemical engineers typically hold a degree in Chemical Engineering or Process Engineering. Practising engineers may have professional certification
and be accredited members of a professional body. Such bodies include the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) or the American Institute of
Chemical Engineers (AIChE). A degree in chemical engineering is directly linked with all of the other engineering disciplines, to various extents.

DEPARTMENT OF ARCHITECTURE
DURATION COURSE 5 YEARS
In India, the Bachelor of Architecture lasts for five years. Specialised institutes founded by the government of India, for excellence in the field of
architecture and planning are SPAs (Schools of Planning and Architecture). They are Institutes of National Importance through an act in the
Parliament, on the lines of IITs, NITs and IIMs. Currently, there are three such SPAs, with the MHRD (Ministry of Human Resource Development)
mulling over setting up more such institutes.

Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.) is a five years undergraduate program which can be started after 10+2 with minimum 50% marks. This course
is designed to produce licensed and professional architects who are authorized to do private constructions and government constructions.

Bachelor of Architecture is a technical course study which mainly focuses on the development of the skills which are required to become an
Architect. Students learn the process of construction of commercial buildings, malls, complexes, highways construction, and civil construction by
applying their innovative ideas and analytical skills. It also includes the theory and practice of designing process and as well as the commercial
drawing techniques.

Administration Department
Academic administration is a branch of university or college employees responsible for the maintenance and supervision of the institution and
separate from the faculty or academics , although some personnel may have joint responsibilities. Some type of separate administrative structure
exists at almost all academic institutions. Fewer institutions are governed by employees who are also involved in academic or scholarly work.
Many senior administrators are academics who have advanced degrees and no longer teach or conduct research.

Key broad administrative responsibilities (and thus administrative units) in academic institutions include:
- Admissions
- Supervision of academic affairs such as hiring, promotion, tenure, and evaluation (with faculty input where appropriate);
- Maintenance of official records (typically supervised by a registrar);
- Maintenance and audit of financial flows and records;
- Maintenance and construction of campus buildings (the physical plant);
- Maintenance of the campus grounds;
- Safety and security of people and property on the campus (often organized as an office of public safety or campus police);
- Maintenance and construction
- Supervision and support of campus computers and network (information technology).
- Fundraising from private individuals and foundations ("development" or "advancement")
- Research administration (including grants and contract administration, and institutional compliance with federal and state regulations)
- Public affairs (including relations with the media, the community, and local, state, and federal governments)
-Student services such as disability services, career counseling and library staff.
Deans
Deans may supervise various and more specific aspects of the institution, or may be CEOs of entire campuses. They may report directly to the
president or chancellor. The division of responsibility among deans varies widely among institutions; some are chiefly responsible for clusters of
academic fields (such as the humanities or natural sciences) or whole academic units (such as a graduate school or college), while others are
responsible for non-academic but campus-wide concerns such as minority affairs. In some cases a provost supervises the institution's entire
academic staff, occupying a position generally superior to any dean. In other instances the Dean of a College may be the equivalent to a Provost or
Vice Chancellor or Vice President for Academic Affairs. Below deans in the administrative hierarchy are heads of individual academic
departments and of individual administrative departments. These heads (commonly styled "chairs" or "directors") then supervise the faculty and
staff of their individual departments.

Departmental Chairs
The Chair of a department is typically a tenured or at least tenure-track faculty member, supported by administrative staff.

Administrative staff
All levels of the university have administrative staff, reporting to Chancellors, Presidents, Provosts

LIBRARY
Academic libraries are generally located on college and university campuses and primarily serve the students and faculty of that and other academic
institutions. Some academic libraries, especially those at public institutions, are accessible to members of the general public in whole or in part.

Academic libraries are libraries that are hosted in post-secondary educational institutions, such as colleges and universities. Their main function are
to provide support in research and resource linkage for students and faculty of the educational institution. Specific course-related resources are
usually provided by the library, such as copies of textbooks and article readings held on 'reserve' (meaning that they are loaned out only on a short-
term basis, usually a matter of hours). Some academic libraries provide resources not usually associated with libraries, such as the ability to check
out laptop computers, web cameras, or scientific calculators.

Academic libraries offer workshops and courses outside of formal, graded coursework, which are meant to provide students with the tools
necessary to succeed in their programs.[2] These workshops may include help with citations, effective search techniques, journal databases, and
electronic citation software. These workshops provide students with skills that can help them achieve success in their academic careers (and often,
in their future occupations), which they may not learn inside the classroom.

The academic library provides a quiet study space for students on campus; it may also provide group study space, such as meeting rooms.. The
library provides a "gateway" for students and researchers to access various resources, both print/physical and digital.
Some academic libraries take on new roles, for instance, acting as an electronic repository for institutional scholarly research and academic
knowledge, such as the collection and curation of digital copies of students' theses and dissertations.
Computer Centre, CAD Hall
Computer Center is a technology provider to students, researchers and teaching community to fulfill their computational, technological and
internet requirements.
One of the major tasks of Computer Center is to equip the UG students of all branches in their first year course of study.

Computer-aided design (CAD) is the use of computers (or workstations) to aid in the creation, modification, analysis, or optimization of
a design. CAD software is used to increase the productivity of the designer, improve the quality of design, improve communications through
documentation, and to create a database for manufacturing. CAD output is often in the form of electronic files for print, machining, or other
manufacturing operations. The term CADD (for Computer Aided Design and Drafting) is also used.

Computer-aided design is one of the many tools used by engineers and designers and is used in many ways depending on the profession of the user
and the type of software in question.

Lecture
A lecture usually involves a member of USC's senior academic teaching staff presenting themes and concepts related to a course of study to
students enrolled in that course. Most courses have one weekly lecture held in a lecture theatre (LT). The lecturer presents information to a large
class, as many as 200 students, and while questions are encouraged, there is minimal group discussion.
Tutorial
Tutorial classes are facilitated by a member of USC's academic teaching staff (usually a tutor) and are run in smaller groups (15-25 students).
Tutorials allow group discussion of lecture content and assessment, and presentation and debate on themes and concepts related to the course.
Most courses have one weekly tutorial.
Workshop
Workshops usually involve a member of teaching staff presenting themes and concepts, or the development of a skill, related to the course of
study. Workshops may involve more hands-on learning however also allow discussion, interaction, presentation and debate on a given topic.
Lectorial
Lectorials are, as the name suggests, a combination of lecture and tutorial teaching modes designed to improve opportunities for student
engagement in larger cohorts. Advances in technology and configuration of the rooms allow a traditional instructor (lecturer) and several teaching
staff (tutors) to deliver a learning experience that integrates the student-centred and collaborative elements of a tutorial in a lecture theatre – for
example, during the lecture, several tutors can provide support across a large group of students, effectively conducting multiple 'tutorials' in the
one space/class.
Sports Facilities
The following standards are recommended for consideration by those involved in planning college and university facilities for physical
education, intramural sports, intercollegiate athletics, and recreation .
Type A- Indoor Teaching Stations
- Space requirements : 8 .5 to 9 .5 sq ft per student (total undergraduate enrollment)
- Including : Gym floors, mat areas, swimming pools, courts, etc . (adjacent to lockers and showers and within 10-min walking distance of
academic classrooms)
-- Uses : Physical education class instruction, varsity sports, intramural sports, unorganized informal sports participation, student and faculty

Ancillary Areas
Investigation indicates that a reasonable standard for determining the space needed for lockers, showers, toweling rooms, equipment storage,
supply rooms, and offices associated with type.

A space is a square footage equaling approximately 40 percent of the play or activity area in a gymnasium facility. All other space in a
building, including hallways, stairways, wall thicknesses, lobbies, public toilets, bleachers for public use, custodial . space, and space needed
for service conduits of all types, is spoken of by many architects as "tare.“

The space needed for tare varies greatly from building to building, depending upon the function and architectural design . A rough estimate of
the area needed for this item is a figure equal to 80 percent of the activity or play area in a gymnasium. By adding tare, ancillary, and play
space, a rough estimate of the gross square footage of a gymnasium plan can be computed . This figure is helpful in preliminary discussions of
costs involved .
Meditation Centre
Meditation is a practice where an individual uses a technique – such as mindfulness, or focusing the mind on a particular
object, thought or activity – to train attention and awareness, and achieve a mentally clear and emotionally calm and stable
state. Scholars have found meditation difficult to define, as practices vary both between traditions and within them.

Meditation has been practiced since antiquity in numerous religious traditions, often as part of the path
towards enlightenment and self realization. Some of the earliest written records of meditation (Dhyana), come from the Hindu
traditions of Vedantism. Since the 19th century, Asian meditative techniques have spread to other cultures where they have
also found application in non-spiritual contexts, such as business and health.
Meditation may be used with the aim of reducing stress, anxiety, depression, and pain, and increasing peace, perception, self-
concept, and well-being. Meditation is under research to define its possible health (psychological, neurological,
and cardiovascular) and other effects.

Staff Quarters
Staff Quarters are the residential units provided in a university campus to provide accommodation to the Staff Members ,
including teaching , clerical and other staff.

To provide accommodation to for different level of staff. , different type of quarters are provided in a camous which have
different level of amenities in it. And have various amount of Area.
