Rationale:
After completion of three years of technical training, Polytechnic students are expected to enter in to
the World of Work. The business environment is altogether different and new to the students. A proper
introduction and understanding of Business Processes is therefore essential for all Polytechnic students.
Management is a subject which deals with basics of Management science required to understand the
processes the in Industrial & Commercial environment. This will enable the students of Polytechnic to
become familiar and to understand various Business Organizational structures, their functioning and
the Role these technicians will have to play in these setups with responsibilities.

Industrial Engineering is concerned with the design, improvement and installation of integrated
systems of people, materials, equipment and energy. Polytechnic students must be able to analyze the
use and cost of the resources of the organization in order to achieve the objective, i.e. to increase
productivity, profits etc. and carryout the policies efficiently and effectively.

Objective:

The students will able to:

1. Familiarize environment in the world of work.
2. Explain the importance of management process in Business.
3. Identify various components of management.
4. Describe Role & Responsibilities of a Technician in an Organizational Structure.

 Subject : Professional Practices (Common Paper)
Subject Code : 602

Rationale:
Most of the diploma holders join industries. Due to globalization and competition in the industrial
and service sectors the selection for the job is based on campus interviews or competitive tests.
While selecting candidates a normal practice adopted is to see general confidence, ability to
communicate and attitude, in addition to basic technological concepts.
The purpose of introducing professional practices is to provide opportunity to students to undergo
activities which will enable them to develop confidence. Industrial visits, expert lectures, seminars on
technical topics and group discussion are planned in a semester so that there will be increased
participation of students in learning process.

Activities to be undertaken:
Students are expected to undertake these activities:

1. Acquire information from different sources ( Print and electronic) on the topics of specialization and
related to the subjects of II nd and final year. The class is to be divided in groups of not more than five to
six students in a group and all groups are to be allotted topic of their choice. The topic should not be
repeated to other group for originality of work to be performed by the group. This activity will develop
interdependence and leadership among the students.

2. Prepare notes for given topic at point no 1. The notes will be in form of a project report, having all the
sections of report. The report should not be of 30 – 50 pages.

3. Prepare presentation and Present the learning and finding on given topic in a seminar. The
presentation should be prepared in Power Point module having more than 25 slides. All students should
be asked to deal with suitable parts decided by the group itself.

4. Interact with peers to share thoughts. After the final presentation the students should be encouraged to
interact with the faculty members, students’ fellows and other experts for suggestions and advanced and
structured learning.

5. Undertake industrial visit of their area and choice. Prepare a report on industrial visit. Expert lectures on
the topic selected may be invited for the students and these expert lectures also the students should be
asked to prepare a report and present the same in seminar or have a group discussion before the expert
and faculty members.

6. Develop entrepreneurial traits. Students group may be asked to have a field survey and product
assessment and analysis for a product of their choice. Prepare a report for all the inputs of their
requirement and submit it for evaluation.

7. To prepare for start ups. Expert lectures for exploring this option may be arranged as this is also a
viable option and much talked about option for self employment and avail the encouragement by the
government.

Based on the above rationales students will advised to develop traits under guidance of dedicated faculty
members / mentors.
