Contact Period: 0-0-0 Credit: 2 ( Full Marks- 50)

Students will be divided into small groups and any engineering or physics related problem may
be selected in consultation with the supervisor. This is intended to enhance their outlook and
problem-solving skill in a broader spectrum. The problem may not be directly related to
mechanical engineering as they are only in 3rd Semester and no mechanical engineering subject
is completed at the starting of the Semester. At the end of the Semester (3rd) they need to submit
a report to the supervisor. Evaluation will be done by the supervisor on the basis of overall
performance as well as on the report. Head examiner may need to keep parity of marks across the
groups.

This course is mainly designed to enhance the performance of the students for

(a) Interview preparedness

(b) Group discussion.

Instructors may decide suitable ways to improve the performance of a student depending on
his/her strength and weakness. For interview preparedness, mock interview and seminar
presentation on a selected topic may be conducted. Special emphasis to be given on self
introduction.

Group Discussion is an important skill for placement of the students and it is observed that many
students are weak in this section despite their good academic performance.The students be
divided in a small groups and they may be allowed to speak within the group on a selected topic
as given by the instructor.

Students may be evaluated based on their overall performance or as decided by the instructor.

B.Tech Project Part-I (ME4191)

Contact Hours : 0 – 0 - 2 Credit:4 (Marks:

100)

B.Tech Project (Part-I & II) is of full one year duration. So an involved industry problem
or numerical modelling/ simulation may be formulated. For problems relating to
industry , students may have to visit plant or company to collect data or for
manufacturing some components. Such data may be further analysed to improve the
process, to rectify some problem or to find out some important parameter like efficiency.
Purely numerical problems also can be taken up on frontier research areas and the
same may be validated with the results of similar models in published papers. But only
study kind of project, in which the students can not carry out the calculations (or
model development etc.) on their own, is not allowed.

Students need to submit a Report on Vocational Training which they undergo

during the summer vacation after 6th Semester. The report should be signed by
the competent authority of the company or the institute where the student had
performed the work. At the end of 7th Semester, the students also have to make
a presentation before a board constituted by the department and the board will
evaluate the presentation as well as the Report submitted.
