RATIONALE
A diploma holder in this course is required to assist in the design and development of prototype and
other components. For this, it is essential that he is made conversant with the principles related to
design of components and machine and application of these principles for designing. The aim of the
subject is to develop knowledge and skills about various aspects related to design of machine
components.
