This document outlines the course code, name, credits, objectives, outcomes and modules for a Production Process course. The course aims to teach basic production processes, how to select appropriate processes, and machine tools. It covers topics like casting, joining, forming, molding of polymers and ceramics, and machine tools like lathes and mills. The course is assessed through internal tests and an end semester exam weighing each module proportionally based on lecture hours. References for further reading on production technology are also provided.

Assessment:
Internal Assessment for 20 marks:
Consisting Two Compulsory Class Tests First test based on approximately 40% of contents and second test based on remaining contents (approximately 40% but excluding contents covered in Test I)
End Semester Examination:
Weightage of each module in end semester examination will be proportional to number of respective lecture hours mentioned in the curriculum. 1. Question paper will comprise of total six questions, each carrying 20 marks 2. Question 1 will be compulsory and should cover maximum contents of the curriculum 3. Remaining questions will be mixed in nature (for example if Q.2 has part (a) from module 3 then part (b) will be from any module other than module 3) 4. Only Four questions need to be solved.
