 MEN48 INDUSTRIAL TRAINING – I

The students are expected to gain a working experience in various departments of an industry /
organization and hence learning the industrial management in a practical way.

The students have to undergo a six months industrial training (PHASE I) during the IV semester in a
related industry / organization. During the training period the students are maintaining an Industrial
diary to record their observation and learning. On completion of training, a training report should be
submitted to the Head of the Department. Industrial training of Sandwich students will be evaluated
based on Continuous Assessment of two periodical reviews and an End semester Examination on
Assessment of Training Report and viva-voce.

Course Outcomes:

After taking this course, the students shall be able to:

C215.1 Explain the production process in an industrial organization.

C215.2 Appreciate the Organizational structural and functions of department in industries.
C215.3 Practice on production machines and its operation/ Maintenance.
C215.4 Follow safety practices in industries.
C215.5 Develop social skills and inter personals skills such as planning, listening.
C215.6 Appreciate the ethics practiced in industries.
C215.7 Improve communication skills.

C215.8 Develop concepts of QC tool practiced in industry such as 5S, JIT, KAIZEN, and
TQM.

SANDWICH DIPLOMA COURSE - INDUSTRIAL TRAINING

1. Introduction

The main objective of the Sandwich Diploma Course is to mould a well-rounded technician acclimated
with industrial environment while being a student in the institution.

The Sandwich Diploma Course study is pursued by students, in 7 semesters of 3½ years duration, the
subjects of 3 years - Full Time Diploma Course being regrouped for academic convenience.

While in the 4th semester students undergo Industrial Training-I for 6 months (December through May).
They also do course work in the institution for one day in a week, while in the 7th semester they undergo
another spell of 6 months (June through November) Industrial training-II.

The Apprenticeship (Amendment) Act 1973 is followed in regulating the Industrial training procedure
for Sandwich Course.

First Spell - IV Semester (December - May)

Second Spell - VII Semester (June - November)

2. Attendance Certification
Every month students have to get their attendance certified by industrial supervisor in the prescribed
form. Students have also to put their signature on the form and submit it to the institutional staff in-
charge. Attendance and submission of Review reports will be duly considered while awarding the
Continuous Assessment mark.

3. Training Reports
The students have to prepare two types of reports:
 Weekly report in the form of diary to be submitted to the concerned staff in-charge of the
institution. This will be reviewed while awarding Continuous Assessment mark.
 Comprehensive report at the end of each phase of Industrial Training will be reviewed
while awarding End semester Examination marks.

Industrial Training Diary

Students are required to maintain the record of day - to- day work done. Such record is called Industrial
training Diary. Students have to write this report regularly. All days of the week should be accounted
for clearly giving attendance particulars (Presence, Absence, Leave, Holiday etc). The concerned
Industrial supervisor is to check periodically these progress reports.

Comprehensive Training Report

In addition to the diary, students are required to submit a comprehensive report on training with details
of the organisation where the training was undergone after attestation by the supervisors. The
comprehensive report should be incorporating study of plant/ product /process/ construction along with
intensive in-depth study on any one of the topics such as processes, methods, tooling, construction
and equipment, highlighting aspects of quality, productivity and system. The comprehensive report
should be completed in the last week of Industrial training. Any data, drawings etc should be
incorporated with the consent of the Organisation.
