1.1 Title of the Course Elective Courses:
Bachelor of Engineering in Automobile Engineering. AB DEFGH
1.2 Duration of the Course GH: 01 to 99 specific numbers to each elective course
The total duration of the course is 4 years. Each year consists of two parts I and
II, each part having a duration of 90 working days (15 weeks). For example, ME 751 is the code for the core course “Finite Element Method”
which is offered in fourth year second part by Department of Mechanical
2. COURSE STRUCTURE Engineering.
The course is divided into 8 parts. The first year courses include fundamental 4. INSTRUCTION METHODS
common subjects. The second and third year generally include specific courses
of the related discipline. The final year include professional and application The method of teaching is lectured augmented by tutorials and/or practical,
type courses. whichever is relevant. Tutorials are used to enlarge and develop the topic and
concepts stated in the lecture. Practical classes in the form of laboratory works
The course structure attached in the later section of this book provides and design/drawing practices are used to verify the concepts and to develop
information about lecture, tutorial and practical hours per week, full marks and necessary basic skills. Each course is specified with certain lecture, tutorial and
pass marks for internal assessment and final examination, and the duration of practical hour(s) per week. The hours specified as 3/2 in practical means 3
final examination of each subject. laboratory hours in each two weeks.

3. COURSE CODE The use of multimedia and interactive mode (presentations) is encouraged for
conducting fourth year courses.
Each subject is specified by a unique code consisting of two letters followed by
three digit number for core courses and five digit numbers for elective courses. 5. INTERNAL ASSESSMENT AND FINAL EXAMINATION
The first two letters denote the department which offers the subject (SH:

assessment. It includes lab performance, report submission, presentation, viva
etc. However, for few courses final examinations are also conducted.

5.2 Final Examination
Final examinations of 3 hours for theoretical subjects with full mark of 80 and
1.5 hours for theoretical subjects with full mark of 40 are conducted as per
academic calendar of IOE.

The distribution of mark for each subject is given at the end of course content.
For evaluation purpose, all theoretical subjects are divided into 5 units. Each
unit will carry 20 % of full marks in the final examination. There may be sub
questions in each unit but each sub questions can have marks multiple of 4 only.

5.3 Pass Marks

Any student must obtain 40 % in both internal assessment and final examination
of each subject to pass in the subject. Only students who have passed the
internal assessment of a particular subject are allowed to appear in the final
examination of that subject.

6. EVALUATION SYSTEM
Students who have passed all the components of all subjects in all parts are
considered to have successfully completed the course. The overall achievement
of each student is measured by a final aggregate percentage which is obtained
by providing a weight to percentages scored by the students in each part as
prescribed below:

First year (both I and II Parts): 20 %

Second year (both I and II Parts): 20 %
Third year (both I and II Parts): 30 %
Fourth years (both I and II Parts): 30 %

Depending upon the final weighted aggregate percentage scored by a student, a

division is awarded as follows:

80 % and above: Distinction

65 % or above and below 80 %: First
50 % or above and below 65%: Second
40 % or above and below 50%: Pass

viva voce examination.

General procedures
The project course will involve working on engineering project under the
supervision of a faculty member in the concerned department. The subject of the
project should be as relevant as possible to the local industrial environment and may
be selected in consultation with an industrial firm or government departments. The
project should be completed by the end of fourth year starting from the beginning of
Part I according to the procedures described below.
Part I
The students should select the project topic at the beginning of the Part I. Students
should submit feasible project proposal within 2 weeks from start of the semester
and should submit weekly progress report. Mid-term progress will be evaluated at
the end of Part I on which students should submit progress report, give presentation
and face viva voce examination. The consultation hour of supervisor will be three
hours per week.

Part II
The students should continue the selected project and submit progress report
weekly. Project progress will be evaluated at (8-10)th week of the semester on which
students should submit report, give presentation and face viva voce examination.
Final evaluation will be carried out by the project evaluation committee comprising
external examiner at the end of Part II. The consultation hour of supervisor will be
six hours per week.

Course Requirements:
1. A detailed project proposal is to be submitted to the HOD within two weeks of
the start of the term. The HOD and supervisor will decide whether the project is
accepted or not. An oral presentation (10 minutes plus 10 minutes for question)
will take place at a convenient time of supervisor and evaluation committee. The
written proposal and oral reports will account for 5 marks.
2. A written mid-term progress report is to be submitted 2-3 weeks before the end
of the term (Part A of the fourth year). An oral presentation (15 minutes plus 15
minutes for question) will take place at a convenient time of supervisor and

1. Homework Problems Total 80
Traditional homework problems will be assigned periodically from the textbook.
These problems may include derivations and analytical problems requiring hand
computations.
2. Assignments
5 projects will be assigned throughout the semester requiring the use of Simulation
Software. These projects are to be done individually. A brief report describing the
objectives of the analysis, modelling techniques used, and results must be submitted
for each project.
3. Group Design Project/Research Project
A group design project will also be required by the end of the semester. This project
will be conceived by the group, must be of a “design” nature (no unique answer will
exist), and will require the use of Simulation Software (with more than one
iteration). Groups of 3-4 people will work on the project. A final report must be
submitted detailing the objectives, modelling techniques and assumptions, and
results of the project. In place of a design project, students are required to complete
a research-oriented project that uses advanced capabilities of Simulation Software.
4. Case study
Industrial Engineering problems study and analysis
