Engineering and technologies have become one of the predominant forces in shaping our vision of reality in the contemporary world. And the domain of humanistic learning enables a future technocrat to sustain the resilience of human spirit in all spheres of life. The department of Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS) of NERIST fulfills this vision of projecting a human content and consciousness required for the expansion of technological and scientific knowledge by synthesizing the sciences and technologies with social sciences and humanities.
