knowledge acquired during the earlier semesters to real-life problems which he/she may have
to face in future as an engineer. While learning as to how to solve real life problems, the
student will receive guidance from teachers and also review various courses (subjects) learnt
earlier.
2. The comprehension assessment will consist of 3 to 5 tests in each Thermal, Desgin and
Manufacturing Streams covering all the subject of study in the respective streams under B.E.
