Synopsis This course provides foundational exposure and practical knowledge regarding workshop tools and machinery operations, including drilling, lathe, milling, and Computer Numerical Control (CNC) systems. It also covers gear inspection/measurement and various welding processes such as Oxy-Acetylene, SMAW, GTAW, and GMAW.
Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs)
CLO1: Apply knowledge of basic mechanical components, equipment, hand tools, and measuring instruments.
CLO2: Apply standard operating practices when using mechanical tools and components.
CLO3: Demonstrate continuous learning and information management skills to complete assignments.
Assessment Structure The course uses a split evaluation approach combining Continuous Assessment (50%) and a Final Exam/Assessment (50%):
Test: 15%
Case Study: 10%
Presentation: 10%
Assignment: 10%
Quiz: 5%
