Teaching scheme: Examination scheme:

Practical: 2 Hrs/week Oral exams: 50 Marks

 The main objective of this course is to familiarize the students about the standards and practices used in industry, and expose them for the working environment of industry.

The out come of these assignments should be the finalization of the problem statement for project work the students will carry out in their final year under the heading of project.

As regards to term work students are required to submit a comprehensive report on the experience gained during industrial assignments. The students are also required to make a presentation for the benefit of other student.
