Message from the Principal
“Our job is to graduate engineers who think clearly, build carefully and keep learning. AI and quantum computing raise the bar for all three.”
Dr. Mohammed Riyaz AhmedPrincipal, HKBK College of Engineering
Dear students,
Welcome to HKBK College of Engineering. Whether you are joining us this year or returning for another semester, I want you to know what we expect from you, and what you can expect from us.
We follow the curriculum of Visvesvaraya Technological University, and we go beyond it. In every programme, you will learn to use AI tools well: to check their answers, to understand their limits, and to build systems of your own. Students who want to go further can take our quantum computing tracks and run experiments on real quantum hardware.
Strong fundamentals still matter most. Mathematics, physics, programming and clear writing are what let you learn the next technology, and the one after that. Our faculty will push you on these, and support you when it gets hard. Every student has a faculty mentor; use them.
Learning also happens outside the classroom. Join a project, a club or a research group. Take part in our Universal Human Values sessions, which help you think about the kind of engineer and person you want to be.
To our research scholars: our research centre and faculty are here to help you publish, patent and solve problems that matter. To our faculty: thank you for your commitment to every student.
Attend regularly, ask questions, and be honest in your work. Do that, and HKBK will open doors for you.
Dr. Mohammed Riyaz Ahmed
Principal, HKBK College of Engineering
