Basic Science and Humanities department (BS & HU) comprises of Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and English. The department is committed to achieve academic excellence in teaching and scholarly endeavors, as well as serving the academic community and the public at large with highly qualified faculty members. It aims to provide a comprehensive knowledge of Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and English to the engineering students with a view to enrich the students’ understanding towards their core subjects. This will help them in encountering practical problems in their engineering careers, keeping a balance between applications and the basic principles behind them.
The department has excellent faculty members with international fame. All the faculty members attend and present papers in International and National conferences regularly in India. Some of the faculty members attended International conferences in different countries like Germany, Poland, Hungary, Czec Republic, China, Sri Lanka, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Spain. Total journal publication of this department is nearly 200 and conference presented papers are nearly 250. The department organizes seminar, model competition, project fair, power point presentation competition for the students as well as arranges expert lectures from different fields. The department publishes departmental Newsletter “Illumination” which contains all the departmental events and faculty achievements. There is also a separate Departmental Library apart from the Central Library which facilitates knowledge building for the faculty members.

Dept of BSHU
Department of Basic Science & Humanities endeavors to be a nationally-recognized model for educating and graduating students prepared to compete in and contribute to the ever- changing, technology-centered world of the 21st century. To achieve this vision the department is committed for providing a course of study for undergraduates in the field of Chemistry, Physics, Maths and Communicative English which combines curriculum and service/engagement opportunities that are high-quality, innovative and intellectually challenging and employ state-of-the-art technologies.
The mission of the Department of Basic Science & Humanities is to provide our students with highly qualified faculty members, academic advisors, advanced academic programs and high quality facilities to prepare competent professionals who will be able to work independently and apply their knowledge to develop own skills. It is our choice to equip our students with modernized perspective of science & communicative English in the different fields of the department.
Basic Science and Humanities @ Narula Institute of Technology consists of 4 sections, Chemistry, English, Mathematics and Physics. These subjects lay foundation to the knowledge base and education of any engineer, thus all the faculty members in these departments work towards achieving a common goal , to fulfill the educational needs of an engineer. Following are the main combined objective of Basic Science and Humanities @ NiT

Language Lab1: CACM ISIL Lab
The Language lab, which was designed by CACM (Centre for Advanced Communication), was set up at Narula Institute of Technology in the year 2002. The specialized Software ISILS (Interactive, Software Integrated Learning System) is central to CACM's learning laboratories. The focus of ISILS is on a conducive and congenial environment which would act as an impetus to bring out the best in an individual/group of individuals with regard to high interaction and involved participation. The accessories of lab are carefully selected with focus on utilitarian value. The language lab focuses on the enhancement of LSRW skills, Interpersonal and Communication Skills to prepare students for the campus recruitment drive. Also the following skills are developed through the 40 interactive user consoles:
Language Lab 2
DIGITAL LANGUAGE LAB
NIT boasts of a digital language and communication skills laboratory empowered by the ORELL software. The Lab has been established in the year 2011. It offers a super –efficient double-edged solution for both the tutor and the students. The trainers are provided with an opportunity, not only to teach efficiently but also to monitor the progress of each student individually-regardless the size of the students. For the learners, it provides an interactive learning experience as well as the opportunity to self –evaluate his/her progress. The lab has a versatile and comprehensive 24-module campus resource planning software which helps the would-be engineers to become equipped for their professional life. Forty students can attend the course.
