Teaching scheme: 2 hours per week
Credits: 2
Objective:
To assess the debating capability of the student to present a technical topic.
Also to impart training to a student to face audience and present his ideas and
thus creating in him self esteem and courage that are essential for an
engineer.

Individual students are required to choose a topic of their interest from Production
engineering related topics preferably from outside the M.Tech syllabus and give a
seminar on that topic about 30 minutes. A committee consisting of at least three
faculty members (preferably specialized in Production engineering) shall assess the
presentation of the seminar and award marks to the students. Each student shall
submit two copies of a write up of his / her seminar topic. One copy shall be
returned to the student after duly certifying it by the Chairman of the assessing
committee and the other will be kept in the departmental library. Internal continuous
assessment marks are awarded based on the relevance of the topic, presentation
skill, quality of the report and participation.

Internal continuous assessment: 100 marks


Evaluation shall be based on the following pattern:

The project work can be a design project / experimental project and or computer simulation
project on Production engineering or any of the topics related with Production engineering
stream. The project work is allotted individually on different topics. The students shall be
encouraged to do their project work in the parent institute itself. If found essential, they may
be permitted to continue their project outside the parent institute subject to the conditions in
clause 10 of M.Tech regulations. Department will constitute an Evaluation Committee to
review the project work. The Evaluation committee consists of at least three faculty members
of which internal guide and another expert in the specified area of the project shall be two
essential members.
