Department Of Chemical Engineering
India’s growth is critically hinged on chemical and pharmaceutical
industries. Annually, there are number of chemical engineering jobs
created by these industries of which only 25
% are being filled due to
the shortage of chemical engineering graduates. This is one reason
why chemical engineers have traditionally been among the highest
paid professionals in the engineering and science disciplines.
The difference between chemical engineers and other engineers is
that they apply knowledge of chemistry in addition to other engineering
disciplines. Chemical engineers are called “Universal Engineers”
because their scientific and technical mastery is very broad. Chemical
engineers are equipped to work in areas such as Chemicals, Bio-
technology, Pharmaceuticals, Food processing, Energy, Environment,
Consumer products, Electronics, Nanotechnology, Bio-medical
advanced materials and green technologies.
Faculty
The department is endowed with dedicated faculty to impart high
quality education to students at all levels. They provide a vibrant and
creative learning environment for students.
Careers
Chemical engineers are highly employable. They are employed across
a wide range of businesses by both large and small companies and also
can be self-employed.
Chemical engineers have jobs in research, design, development,
manufacturing, optimization, teaching and consulting. Chemical
engineers work in laboratories, plants, and offices. They have wide
opportunities not only in India but also worldwide (abroad).
Academics
The B.Tech in Chemical engineering is a focused program designed in
such a fashion that there is ample scope for students to think beyond
the classroom teaching and learn innovative techniques to solve real
life problems. In addition, students are involved in significant number
of industry projects, where they get a chance to solve problem from
industries and interact with their future employer. Under Graduation
in chemical engineering at K.S.R.M. College of Engineering (with an
intake of 60 sanctioned from the academic year 2013-2014) provides
• The course work is specifically designed to give students
exposure to new and upcoming fields like Nanotechnology and B i o -
Medical
• engineering.
• The capability for analyzing and optimizing complex systems
• An understanding of the importance of safety and sustainability.
In addition K.S.R.M. College of Engineering has partnered with
two highly reputed chemical companies – IBC Limited and Viridis
Chemicals Limited to give training not only the final year students but
also for the students in 2nd and 3rd year as the course work
progresses.
Research
The department is actively engaged in research in number of areas.
However, it has put forth a step further to strengthen research activity
in the area of chemical engineering.
K.S.R.M. has also established a Center for Renewable Energy and
Management (CREAM) where advanced Nanotechnology fields are
being researched and explored. The center currently focuses on
developing several Nanotechnology based advanced Emission
catalysts solutions in collaboration with MAN Turbo and Diesel, the
largest marine and truck engine manufacturer in Germany. The
students in the Chemical Engineering department would have their
course work directly tied up with these advanced infrastructure
Center for Renewable Energy Research & Management (CREAM)
• CREAM envisions to be a pioneer in providing next generation
solutions for problems that circumvent in exploration, adaptation,
utilization and logistics management of renewable energy
technology (RET)
• Our focus is on research and patent technologies that have
immediate impact in advancing industries from using current gen
technology to next generation RET and advance India to be in the
top 3 countries for technology innovation and deployment
Current Projects
• “Development of a bio-gas and bio-diesel duel fuel engine for
rural India” funded by the Department of Science and technology
(DST), Govt of India on Jan 2013
• “Development of mixed metal oxide emissions solutions for NOx
control in Diesel Engines”, funded by Department of Science and
Technology, NANO-MISSION program, Govt of India (2013)

The main key thrust research areas
1. High efficiency (55 percent ) and low emissions duel fuel
engine technology
2. Non-noble metal based mixed metal oxide catalysts for
NOx abatement in modern Diesel engines
3. Logistics of fuel availability for sustained use of high
efficiency duel fuel engines in different parts of India
4. Control system and electronics architecture design for
optimal operation of duel fuel engines
• We impact our college with education system in imparting latest
RET based education to under-graduate and PG level
courses
• We have collaborations with several OEMs (Original Equipment
Manufacturers) and Research organizations nationally and
internationally that will provide excellent exposure to potential
students and faculty involved in research of CREAM’s key thrust

Training and Placements
The college has a full-fledged Training and
Placement cell whose primary aim is to
provide all possible help and assistance to
the students in their efforts to find suitable
employment. This commitment is
demonstrated by the presence of a full time
Training and Placement Officer
Interaction between engineers and
entrepreneurs is the basis for genesis of this
cell. Since its beginning greater emphasis
has been laid on putting efforts to provide
placement to students. It organizes campus
interviews, provides information on job
opportunities and arranges summer training
for students. The cell is constantly arranging
special lectures from eminent persons of
different fields of specialization to help the
students emerge as Great Technocrats.
The Cell identifies the training needs of
students and designs training modules on
soft skills and software skills to students to
match them with corporate requirements.
The cell also conducts Mock test and mock
interviews to increase rate of success. It
plays key role in counseling and guiding the
students for their successful placement
which is crucial between the stage of
completion of academics and entry into
suitable employment.

Alumni Association
The Alumni Association has been existence
since the first batch of outgoing students of
1984. All the passed out students would
automatically become the alumni member of
the Association. The association has around
8000 members placed in different parts of the
world. It is regular practice of the association
