2. PROGRAM OUTCOMES (POs):

1.Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering
fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.

2.Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, review research literature, and analyze complex
engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics,
natural sciences, and engineering sciences.

3. Design/ development of solutions: Design solutions for complex engineering problems and
design system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration
for the public health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.

4. Conduct investigations of complex problems: Use research-based knowledge and research

methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the
information to provide valid conclusions.

5. Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern
engineering and IT tools including prediction and modeling to complex engineering activities with an
understanding of the limitations.

6. The engineer and society: Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to
assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to
the professional engineering practice.

7. Environment and sustainability: Understand the impact of the professional engineering

solutions in societal and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the knowledge of, and need for
sustainable development.

8. Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms
of the engineering practice.

9. Individual and team work: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in
diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.

10. Communication: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the

engineering community and with society at large, such as, being able to comprehend and
write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive
clear instructions.

11. Project management and finance: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the
engineering and management principles and apply these to one’s own work, as a member and leader
in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.

12. Life-long learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in
independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological change.

3. PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES (PEOs):

PEO 1: To encourage students to venture into the field of research there by securing themselves a
fruitful carrier in academia or industries connected to computer science and engineering.

PEO 2: To implement in students the cardinal concepts of computer science and also advanced
techniques and tools advanced techniques and tools in order to help them to formulate solutions or
construct systems of varying complexity.

PEO 3: To prepare the student to critically evaluate or interpret a particular problem and
ethically develop innovative research methodologies to solve them.

4. PROGRAM SPECIFIC OUTCOMES (PSOs) :

PSO 1: To become technology-oriented by applying the programming knowledge to analyse,

design and develop creative solutions in the area of Programming, Software development,
Networking and things that human minds cannot interpret.

PSO 2: To build up programming, analytical and logical thinking abilities by using creative
graphic tools and deep learning.

PSO 3: To gain ability to communicate scientific information in a clear and concise

manner which will be reliable and interpretable for the forthcoming opportunities and limitation
through lifelong learning that is beyond our knowledge.

5. COURSE OUTCOMES (COs):
At the end of the course our Students will be able to
CO1: Demonstrate knowledge on C Programming constructs
CO2: Develop simple applications in C using basic constructs
CO3: Design and implement applications using arrays and strings
CO4: Develop applications in C using structures and pointers.
CO5: Design applications using sequential and random access file processing

7. PRE-REQUISITE:
S.No Course with code Brief Description
1 PYTHON Python is an interpreted, object-oriented, high-level programming
language with dynamic semantics developed by Guido van Rossum.
It was originally released in 1991. Designed to be easy as well as
fun, the name "Python" is a nod to the British comedy group Monty
Python

8. COURSE DESCRIPTION:
In this Python course, you will learn how to:Rapidly develop feature-rich applications
using Python's built-in statements, functions, and collection types. Structure code with classes, modules,
and packages that leverage object-oriented features. Create multiple data accessors to manage various
data storage formats.
Python is a general-purpose, versatile, and powerful programming language. It's a great
first language because Python code is concise and easy to read. Whatever you want to do, python can do
it. From web development to machine learning to data science, Python is the language for you.
Python is used for server-side web development, software development, mathematics,
and system scripting, and is popular for Rapid Application Development and as a scripting or glue
language to tie existing components because of its high-level, built-in data structures, dynamic typing,
and dynamic binding.
