Questions
Which syllabus is followed?
The current AKTU (Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow) B.Tech syllabus of Constitution of India, Law and Engineering (Semester 5, all branches). If your university or college follows a different syllabus, the centre teaches from your own university syllabus.

Engineers sign contracts, handle tenders, protect inventions and manage workers, so basic legal knowledge is essential.
Is it useful for competitive exams?
Yes. The polity part overlaps with UPSC, UPPSC and SSC general studies.
