BASIC WORKSHOPS
All students entering into the Engineering course, irrespective of the branch of study , are exposed to hands-on training in some of the important trades like Carpentry, House - Wiring, Fitting etc. This exposure , right at the beginning of his / her academic Program, instils a practical approach towards engineering education and helps buildup the student’s level of confidence.
 |
 |
Students belonging to Mechanical Engineering Branch are required to acquire skills in a few more trades like Welding , Blacksmithy, Tinsmithy, Foundry etc.
