JUSTIFICATION

Students should know the fundamentals of mechanical

engineering and can apply the same for various technical
problems.
Students will acquire knowledge regarding heat and work
interaction, which they can apply in designing electronic
components and sensors
Students should learn about energy conversion devices, since
most of these devices are operated with the help of electronic
controls.
Electronic components are sophisticated and which should be
operated at right temperature, so students should learn the
basics of Refrigeration and Air conditioning.
Students learn about power transmission devices and most of
these devices are operated electronically using controls.
Learning basic of manufacturing process will help them in
understanding the limitations in producing various electronic
components.
Students will be familiarized with the different machine tools
and will be introduced to the modern industrial world.
