Questions

Which syllabus does the Environmental Engineering Lab course follow?

It follows the AKTU (Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow) B.Tech syllabus for Environmental Engineering Lab. If your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university syllabus.

Will this help in the practical exam and viva?

Yes. Each experiment is explained with its aim, procedure, calculations and result, followed by viva questions and a mock practical.

Is lab safety taught?

Yes. Handling of acids, reagents and glassware is explained before every experiment.
