Module Aim

• To provide an opportunity to put in to practice, the fundamental knowledge of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering gained through the course of study 

• To familiarize the use of project management tools to plan and realize intended outcomes in a project environment

• To familiarize to work in teams effectively

• Present and defend created solutions and approaches using both verbal and written means, following professional standards in the field

Module Learning Outcomes

LO-1 :As groups, analyse a contextual problem for its significance and identify the user requirement or project deliverables in the engineer’s perspective 

LO-2: Evaluate relevant literature to identify the gap to be filled by the project and to formulate the most suitable method to be followed

LO-3: Develop an appropriate conceptual design for the project task

LO-4: Based on the concept created, design in detail using relevant technologies and methods

LO-5: Construct a prototype (real or virtual) to observe the performance of the design and to improve if further where necessary

LO-6: Defend the methodology, methods and outcomes of the project using professional written and verbal means


The main aim of this module is to teach the basic theoretical and practical knowledge of design and analysis of industrial control and automation applications through the knowledge of automation methodology, selection of suitable hardware and programming, for small and medium scale industrial applications using the fundamental knowledge in digital electronics, programming, mechatronics and robotics.
