 Industrial Training I
(To be evaluated in Fifth Semester)

Industrial training shall be as per norms of the institute. The list of industries where students can
undergo training will be approved and published by the department. Period of training will be
during vacation without affecting regular class work/examination. During the training, the student
shall study/analyze the operation/process/design or the complete industry in detail. They shall
submit a report in detail identifying the problems with their suggestion for solution and
conclusions to the department through the faculty coordinator assigned for the same at the end of
the training period. The minimum duration of industrial training is 1-2 weeks. A committee
consisting of two faculty of the department will carry out assessment of the training. Students
shall make a presentation before the committee.
