Design Engineering I-A
SUBJECT CODE: 2130005
What is design? Design is a plan of a system, its implementation and utilization for attaining a
goal. It is to change undesired situation into desired situation means to find solution for
undesired/uncomfortable situation.
Designs can be for
(1) Technical systems (power plant)
(2) Educational systems (Montessori Method)
(3) Aesthetic systems (logo designs, advertisements)
(4) Legal systems
(5) Social, religious or cultural systems
(6) Theories, Models, etc.
Design thinking gives students a taste of the rich internal-remunerations associated with
knowledge-creation and in curiosity and problem-driven contexts. Design need to satisfy
technical functions, ergonomics functions, aesthetic functions, cost function and environment
functions.
Content:
Students can tackle simple design problems with engineering content – posed by the teacher or
based on a survey of real life concerns of the public. The second is more effective – the students
“own the problem” - but has to be accepted by the teacher.
Examples: (a) A device to help carry heavy luggage to the upper floors of a building – a building
that has no lifts. (b) Systems to ensure that water does not come out as a jet from the taps in the
lower floors of a tall building. One can insist on multiple realistic solutions and all should be part
of the submission along with statements of their shortcomings or advantages. Teacher should not
entertain fancy solutions – based on fancy ideas - with no engineering or scientific basis.
Short lectures on the topics in the syllabus should parallel the activity.
Here one could ask students to develop products based on themes - “Garbage compactors,
Energy from kitchen waste, etc” making sure that the problems identified by the students within
the themes possess an engineering content and insisting on some facets of design for assembly,
for manufacturability, ......and so on while preparing the design and the prototypes. One could
encourage students to innovate, arrive at multiple solutions and conduct a detailed design of one
of the solutions.
Prototyping requires funds and effort, so it pays to identify one subsystem of the design of the
whole machine. One can insist on prototyping demonstrating at least that sub-system, if not the
whole system.

Course Outcomes: The course is intended to provide basic understanding of Economics and Management
to engineering students with following aspects:
To impart knowledge, with respect to concepts, principles and practical applications of Economics,
which govern the functioning of a firm/organization under different market conditions.
To help the students to understand the fundamental concepts and principles of management; the
basic roles, skills, functions of management, various organizational structures and basic knowledge
of marketing.
Prerequisite: Nil
Rationale:
Measurement and Metrology deals with the application of science in Mechanical Engineering. It
provides a means of assessing the suitability of measuring instruments, their calibration, and the
quality control of manufactured products. A product that is not manufactured according to
metrological specifications will have to incur heavy costs of comply with the specifications later.
Any compromise in quality creates rapid negative sentiments in the market and cost of recovering
the original market position would be quite high. Hence, an organization should strive towards a
ZERO – DEFECT regime in order to survive in a highly competitive market, ensuring this aspect
of manufacturing is the responsibility of a quality control engineer, who must be completely
familiar with measurements and metrology and also their limitations.
By educating in the area of Measurement and Metrology students will enable to seek employment
in engineering upon graduation while, at the same time, provide a firm foundation for the pursuit
of graduate studies in engineering.
