Preface
Post Graduate Education and Research in Engineering and Technology has gained distinct
importance in context of challenges and opportunities in National development. The
ambitious -Making in India Mission has already started showing targeted results in terms of
increased manufacturing sector. Numbers of international projects are being setup in India
through MoUs considering favourable policies and conditions. The start-ups projects have
created a new generation of entrepreneurs in diverse fields of engineering by tapping vast
potential of innovative minds. The skill development mission has attracted large number of
youths to acquire skills of their liking and to convert skills in to employment and enterprise.
The advances in engineering sciences and their applications in service, manufacturing and
agriculture sectors for commercial benefits has made paradigm shift from under graduate to
post graduate level education in engineering and technology. The knowledge, skills and
competency of engineers required by industry for enhancing their competitiveness in the
market need to be developed from post graduate education and research in engineering and
technology. The expansion of engineering PG education in the last decade has offered
opportunity to bachelor degree holders to enhance their academic excellence and skills. There
are number of PG programs in engineering and technology branches in different
specializations which are offered at about 4000 colleges. The Post Graduate Education and
Research in specialised subject have enhanced academic out comes. The teaching and research
facilities created for conducting PG projects have connected institutes with industry for
consultancy and research. Realizing of importance of PG education in engineering, orientation
of curriculum of PG programmes to make it more relevant and useful is considered need the
hour. The All India Board of PG Education and Research in Engineering and Technology of
AICTE has decided to review and update curriculum for various courses and programs in
technical education. The focus is fixed to design and develop model curricula at PG level in the
light of fast changing technological advancement, new emerging areas and also changes in
pedagogy and delivery system in teaching and learning process.
The model curriculum was developed for six branches of engineering-Electronics and
Communications Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering,
Electrical Engineering and Chemical Engineering and Technology. The subcommittees
constituted for the purses included experts of each branch. The philosophy of drafting model
curriculum for PG level programmes has been evolved through elaborate deliberation through
numbers of meetings. The major specializations in each branch of engineering are selected for
making model curriculum. The course objectives and course outcomes are made part of the
model curriculum to ensure development of specialized knowledge and relevant skill in
integrated manner of learning.

Preface

A standard academic format common for all PG programmes describing numbers of credits,
weight age for lecture, laboratories work and projects have been fixed considering the scope of
study. The position and sequence of study of core courses and elective courses are made to
ensure sequential and integral learning. The focus on advance study in core courses through
theory and laboratories work supported by study on relevant programme specific electives are
incorporated. The selection of unique courses in the basket of elective is a special features of
model curricula ensuring flexibility and diversity. The emphasis on understanding advanced
concepts of PG course is ensured through elaborate practical work conducted through actual
and virtual laboratory experiments. The concept of designing experiments and developing
concept application is made part of learning process. The PG course is spread over two years in
four semesters and inclusion of mini project, audit courses, open electives and dissertation are
the special features of the curriculum. The contents of course are unitised to facilitate its
execution. The list of suggested reading is also made part of the curriculum.
The students are asked to learn IPR/ research methodology to understand importance and
process of creation of patents through research. The introduction of two Audit courses
covering subjects of developing desired attitude among the learners is on the line of initiatives
such as Unnat Bharat Abhiyan, Yoga, Value education, Disaster management, Sanskrit,
Pedagogy, Constitution of India, Personality development through Indian culture etc. The
introduction of mini projects ensures preparedness of students to undertake major projects/
dissertation. The courses included under open electives are of importance in the context of
special skill development and they are on Business analytics, industrial safety, operation
research and cost management of engineering project. This courses shall make students
capable to work in industrial environment. The dissertation/major project work of PG
programme of one-year duration is given strong weight age in the curriculum. It is expected to
undertake industrially relevant problem to develop an optimal solution through extensive
research work. The students and faculty can design the research project in consultant with
industry preferably in the region. The planning of laboratory work/ modelling/ computational
work with execution schedule is suggested at the being of the programme to ensure expected
outcome. This will lead to creation of patents from the result of the programme.
The exercise of drafting model PG curriculum has been undertaken along with feedback from
experts from industry, research organizations and alumni to make it relevant, dynamic and
updated. The extensive work performed by members of the sub committees to develop model
curriculum in various specializations of core branches of engineering and technology through
marathon meetings and tire less work is highly appreciated. I extent sincere thanks to all the
members of subcommittees for their contributions in developing model PG curriculum.
Adopting and implementing the model curriculum by institutions and universities would help
create human resource with desired competency. The cooperate sector would be benefited from
trained manpower for improvement in quality and productivity leading to competitiveness in
[vi]
Preface

the global marketing through technological intervention. The students with advance
knowledge and special skills would be able to offer innovative ideas, technology, product and
process in national development process and fulfil their career goals. With the specialized
curriculum of PG Programmes, the institutes can transform themselves into global institutes.
This would not only retain the large number of graduate students going around for higher
studies but would also attract international students making country a global place of higher
learning and research in engineering and Technology.
