Mumbai University thinks that all Engineering branches should have the same syllabus for the first year.
So be it Computer Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, or any kind of Engineering here the syllabus is common for the first year.
So basically we have Physics, Chemistry, Engineering Maths (not discrete maths), Basic Mechanics, Basic Electrical for the first semester then Physics, Chemistry, Engineering Maths, Engineering Drawing, Professional Communication Skills, and C Programming for the second semester.

Now ofcourse it's mostly stupid but as research oriented student I do like the idea of inter-disciplinary knowledge. Like Engineering Drawing can help the students later in understanding computer graphics, ray tracing and stuffs.
@mur2501 That's a possibility. Might help in spatial thinking there. Ah well, if you have to do it, then you have to do it. Might as well do it well anyway!
@mur2501 Huh, interesting. Although.. we have it as 'Computer Science' here. Is Computer Engineering any different over there, or is it just another name for the same?
