ME1017 PRODUCT DESIGN AND COSTING 3 0 0 100
(Common to Mechanical, Production, Mechatronics and Automobile)
OBJECTIVE
To enable the student to understand the several aspects of the design process and to apply them in practice. Also to train the student in the concept of product costing and other manufacturing economics in optimization of product design.
