The Department of Humanities and Social Sciences has been an integral part of the Institute since its inception in the year 2010. The main objective of the department is the holistic and all round development of the technical graduates into socially responsible individuals. There has been strong exhortation and sensible view among the technical institutes that technical education needs to be complemented by a vital appreciation of the social values and interpersonal context of all learning. Responding to this eminent viewpoint, the department is infusing the concept of "Technology for the greater good of mankind and society as a whole" so that the students will not only excel in technical expertise but also inculcate among themselves excellence in communication, refinement of reasoning, openness to new ideas, and a commitment to social values and ethical behaviour.
 
The department strives to provide the students allied knowledge essential to engineering students and has expertise in various disciplines like English Language and Literature, European Literature in Translation, Abnormal Psychology, General Management, Marketing Management, Financial Management, Human Resource Management and Operations Management. The Department also offers a PhD programme under which research scholars are admitted twice a year.
 
Along with state of the art classrooms, the department is equipped with a modern Computer Assisted Language Learning Laboratory.
