(PROBLEM SOLVING/PROJECT ORIENTED WORK BENCH INVOLVEMENT) Viva Marks: 50 Credits: 2.0 Duration: 6-Weeks Industrial Training Purpose: To expose engineering students to technology development at work places and appraise them regarding shop-floor problems. To provide practical experience in solving open ended problems in real work setting so as to cause transfer of college based knowledge and skills to solve practical problems and thereby develop confidence in the students in the analysis, synthesis and evaluation of practical problems leading to creative thinking Programme: During this work bench involvement, students will be given one or two practical problems. The problems assigned should be of mutual interest to the students and the industry. The problem may belong to one or two different functional areas. To illustrate, following are some of the suggestions: 1. Design of a prototype 2. Programming of CNC machines 3. Calibration and testing of instruments 4. Productivity Improvement Studies 5. Pollution control related problems 6. Capacity Planning and Capital Budgeting 7. Safety Management 8. Optimum utilization of resources 9. Conflict Management Methodology 1. The industrial organizations where students are to be sent for problem solving. 2. project-oriented work bench involvement may be selected well in advance. 3. The faculty of the department is expected to visit the selected industries and identify suitable problems to be handled by students. 4. It will be desirable that problems be matched with the interests of students. 5. It is recommended that a group of 5-6 students be guided by one faculty member during this period. The evaluation of students is proposed to be done by internal faculty with active Involvement of industrial personnel. The evaluation may be based on following criteria: 1. Punctuality and Attendance Interpersonal relations 2. Sense of Responsibility 3. Clarity of concepts, principles and procedures
