First year engineering semester 1 syllabus

First year engineering semester 1 syllabus – The syllabus for the first year engineering F.E for Mumbai University Bachelors degree course has six main subjects and a practical workshop lab.This is an extremely hard year and being the first semester you need to work extra to clear these main subjects.Watch out for mechanics and Applied Maths 1 , they are absolute killers and if there is a high chance you will end up with ATKTs in F.E.

IMPORTANT

Finish study of hard subject FIRST, easy subjects can be completed in 1 week time

DO NOT under any circumstances, try and cover all the topics here ,leave out 25% in all subjects,and the rest 75% be a master of it. If you try and be  a hero ,you will fail.
