AE9310 TECHNICAL SEMINAR L T P C
(Common to all Branches) 0 0 2 1
OBJECTIVE
During the seminar session each student is expected to prepare and present a topic
on engineering/ technology, for a duration of about 8 to 10 minutes. In a session of
three periods per week, 15 students are expected to present the seminar. A faculty
guide is to be allotted and he / she will guide and monitor the progress of the student
and maintain attendance also.
Students are encouraged to use various teaching aids such as over head projectors,
power point presentation and demonstrative models. This will enable them to gain
confidence in facing the placement interviews.
