COLLEGE EMBLEM
Our College Emblem comprises of a gear wheel within which we find an open
book bearing a computer, satellite, dish antenna and an atom. Vertically across like a
book mark is the Vel which symbolizes power and wisdom.
The components inscribed in the emblem are not just the pictorial
representations but representations which have got their own significance A gear is a
component within a transmission device that transmits rotational force to another
gear or device. The most important feature is that, gears of unequal sizes can be
combined to produce a mechanical advantage so that the rotational speed is achieved.
Another literary significance attached to this word is personal belonging. True to the
above definitions, Saveetha Engineering College, by clubbing people from different
walks of life together is reaching its milestone steadily gearing up persistent
momentum with the help of students and faculty with a sense of personal belonging
to each other.
The open book within the wheel aspires to promote literacy in the field of
engineering education as energetically and thoroughly as possible and that means we
would like to work with volunteers, donors and supporters of every ethnicity, age,
gender, interest and so on. Needless to say, it refers to the effective and inspiring
literary organization. The four techno gifts- computer, satellite, dish antenna and
atom are the symbolic representation of the most modern advancements in science
and technology.
The College motto “BE THE BEST” carries a message to the students that
they aim for the best in education. Saveetha shall continue to work to reach
perfection. The year 2001, mentioned below the book denotes the inception of this
esteemed institution under the Saveetha Group of Institutions.

If there is a theory course with Laboratory component, there shall be three
tests: the first two tests (each 100 marks) will be from theory portions and
the third test (maximum mark 100) will be for laboratory component. The
sum of marks of first two tests shall be reduced to 60 marks and the third
test mark shall be reduced to 40 marks. The sum of these 100 marks may
then be arrived at for 20 and rounded to the nearest integer.
11.2 (a) The seminar / Case study is to be considered as purely INTERNAL (with
100% internal marks only). Every student is expected to present a minimum
of 2 seminars per semester before the evaluation committee and for each
seminar, marks can be equally apportioned. The three member committee
appointed by Head of the Institution will evaluate the seminar and at the end
of the semester the marks can be consolidated and taken as the final mark.
