RATIONALE:
There is hardly any automobile, manufacturing and service industry without Hydraulic and Pneumatic
systems. Hydraulic, pneumatic and hydro-pneumatic systems offer ease of power transmission,
enhancement of force and torque, and higher degree of automation. This is a core technology course. It
provides insight into the construction of Hydraulic and Pneumatic circuits, their applications in industrial
and automobile systems and maintenance thereof.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
After completion of the Lab the students will be able to
 Study basic pneumatic and Hydraulic system and it's functioning.
 Design application oriented pneumatic circuits and hydraulic system.
 Study the operation and use of special purpose valves.
 Compare the working of directional control valves.
 Trouble shoots in pneumatic and hydraulic circuits.

RATIONALE:
An internship is a professional learning experience that offers meaningful, practical work related to a
student’s field of study or career interest. An internship gives a student the opportunity for career
exploration and development, and to learn new skills. It offers the employer the opportunity to bring new
ideas and energy into the workplace, develop talent and potentially build a pipeline for future full-time
employees.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
 Opportunity for "hands-on" experience and opportunity to sample various career options
 Preparation for job searches and provides a clear job/project description for the work experience.
 Orients the student to the organization, its culture and proposed work assignment(s).
 Helps the student develop and achieve learning goals.
 Offers regular feedback to the student intern.

DETAILED COURSE CONTENTS

Internship of 4 Weeks shall be performed during summer break after semester II and will be assessed as
part of Semester III. During the summer vacations, after the 2nd Semester, students are required to be
involved in Inter/ Intra Institution Activities viz.; Training with higher Institutions; Soft skill training
organized by Training and Placement Cell of the respective institution; contribution at incubation/
innovation /entrepreneurship cell of the Institution; participation in conferences/ workshops/ competitions
etc.; Learning at Departmental Lab/ Tinkering Lab/ Institutional workshop; Working for consultancy/
research project within the institutes and Participation in all the activities of Institute’s Innovations Council

28
for e.g.: IPR workshop/ Leadership Talks/ Idea/ Design/ Innovation/ Business Completion/ Technical
Expos etc.

After completion of Mini-project or Internship the student should prepare a comprehensive report to
indicate what he has observed and learnt in the training period or while working on mini-project. The
student may contact Industrial Supervisor/ Faculty Mentor/TPO for assigning special topics and problems
and should prepare the final report on the assigned topics. Student’s Diary and Internship Report should be
submitted by the students along with attendance record and an evolution sheet duly signed and stamped by
the industry to the Institute immediately after the completion of the training. It will be evaluated on the
basis of the following criteria:

 Regularity in maintenance of the diary.

 Adequacy & quality of information recorded.
 Drawing, sketches and data recorded.
 Thought process and recording techniques used.
 Organization of the information.
