Title: A Comprehensive Guide to Engineering Mathematics – I by Dr. K.S. Chand Introduction In the realm of technical education, Engineering Mathematics serves as the cornerstone for all engineering disciplines. Among the myriad of resources available to students, "Engineering Mathematics – I" by Dr. K.S. Chand (often referred to as Dr. KSC) stands out as a definitive textbook. It is widely adopted by students pursuing B.Tech, B.E., and diploma courses across various universities in India. The book is renowned for bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and their practical applications, tailored specifically to meet the curriculum requirements of first-year engineering students. About the Author Dr. K.S. Chand is a distinguished academician with extensive experience in teaching engineering mathematics. His writing style is characterized by a student-centric approach, breaking down complex theorems into digestible segments. His works are particularly popular in South Indian universities and have gained traction nationally due to their exam-oriented approach. Key Features of the Book The popularity of Dr. KSC’s book stems from several structural advantages that aid first-year students:
Curriculum Alignment: The content is meticulously structured to align with the syllabi of major technical universities (such as JNTU, Anna University, VTU, and others). It strictly adheres to the "Module" or "Unit" system often followed in semester exams. Lucid Explanation: The theoretical portions are explained in simple English, avoiding unnecessary jargon. Concepts in Differential Calculus, Linear Algebra, and Infinite Series are introduced with intuitive logic before diving into mathematical proofs. Solved Examples: This is arguably the strongest feature of the book. Every theoretical concept is immediately followed by a set of solved examples. These examples range from simple substitutions to complex problem-solving, helping students build confidence gradually. Exam-Orientation: The book includes questions from previous years' university examinations. This gives students a clear idea of the question paper pattern and important topics. Practice Exercises:
Unsolved Problems: Ample space is provided for self-practice with answers (and hints for complex problems) provided at the end of chapters. Objective Type Questions: To cater to modern examination patterns which often include Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs), the book provides a robust database of objective questions.
