BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN INSTRUMENTATION

UNDER CUCCSSUG 2009

1.0 Title of the programme :

This programme shall be called

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN INSTRUMENTATION under Choice Based

Course Credit Semester System and Grading

2.0 Highlights of the programme

2.1Aim and objective:

Emerging trends and stimulating developments in the field of science,

increasing opportunities and demands at workplace have made it imperative that the

undergraduate science courses be redesigned to cater to the professional aspirations of the

students. The present world is in need of professionals who are experts in the respective

fields and hence restructuring of any science course should possess components as

catalyst to achieve the goals. The boundaries between different domains of science are

disappearing and more exciting developments are being reported from areas at the

crossing point of disciplines. In response to these changes taking place in society, the

University of Calicut has embarked on a major restructuring exercise for its science

courses, introducing BSc courses in alternate pattern.

BSc INSTRUMENTATION Programme is one such course in science stream under

CCSS of University of Calicut. This restructured undergraduate science course provides

students with a broad-based exposure to the critical domains of sciences with adequate

background of mathematical sciences. The tools and techniques of computer applications,

modern instrumentation, electronics and analytical techniques have a major role in

curriculum. The open courses offered ensure adequate exposure to global and local

concerns that explore the many aspects of societal relevance in environmental science .It

also gives opportunity to explore the multi-disciplinary nature of science.

This course is to equip 10+2 (Science Group) students with the theory of

Instrumentation and also to train them in achieving technical expertise in instrumentation.

We aim to provide a solid foundation in all aspects of Instrumentation and to show a

broad spectrum of modern trends in the subject and also to develop experimental,

computational and mathematical skills of students. The syllabi are framed in such a way

that it generate graduates of the calibre sought by industries and public service as well as

academic teachers and researchers of the future.

2.2 Job Potential: The BSc Instrumentation graduates will be useful as scientific and

laboratory assistants to assist design specialties as well as maintenance personal.

Biomedical Instrumentation introduced in the curriculum will make graduates useful in

the medical field. Course content is designed such that BSc Instrumentation graduates

will be fit as scientific and laboratory assistants in the industrial field. The project work

will equip them to cater to the specialized needs of industry, scientific laboratories,

medical electronics and precision technology fields.

2.3 Self Employment: These graduates will gain on job training during their project

study so that they can set up their own establishment to carry out developmental activities

as well as maintenance and servicing establishments.

2.4 Higher Studies: These students can continue to take up MSc Instrumentation ,MSc

Biomedical Instrumentation, MSc Electronics and MCA

2.5 Minimum qualification of Faculty members: Masters degree in Instrumentation or

MSc Instrumentation Technology or MSc Electronics and Instrumentation Technology or

MSc Biomedical Instrumentation or B Tech in Instrumentation .

3.0 Eligibility for admission:

Any candidate who has passed the Plus Two (Science Group) of the Higher

Secondary Board of Kerala or Pre Degree of Calicut University or that of any other

University or Board of Examinations recognized as equivalent to the Plus Two of the

Higher Secondary Board in Kerala, with mathematics as one of the optional subject, is

eligible for admission.

3.0 Duration of the programme:

The duration of the programme of study in BSc Instrumentation is three academic

years with six semesters.

5.0 Medium of Instruction:

The medium of instruction and examination shall be English.

6.0 Courses of study:

Total number of courses for the whole BSc Instrumentation programme is 36. It is

divided in to four groups namely-
