Nitte, April 20, NMAM Institute of Technology has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with KH Designs, Bengaluru (a SSC NASSCOM and SIEMENS PLM Partner) to provide skill training for the job profile of Mechanical Product Design Engineer. The objective of this MoU is to empower students with the skills and competencies of global standards required by manufacturing companies, design centers of multinational companies in India and the engineering design service companies.
On signing of the MoU, HOD Dr. Shashikantha Karinka said that India is going to be the next manufacturing destination. He further added that Government of India’s “Make in India” initiative will create a huge opportunity and our students will be ready with the industry relevant skill-sets to grab these job opportunities.
Every year in India many new cars are launched by the manufacturers. There are about 2000 unique plastic parts in a car. The design of parts using plastics is a challenge and offers a unique opportunity in the automotive sector. There are similar challenges in Aerospace, hi-tech consumer and medical equipment industry sectors. There is ample scope for students with the acquired skills in design of plastic parts.
Dr. Niranjan Chiplunkar, Principal of NMAMIT said that the institute updates the curriculum every year based on industry job profile and the skill requirements. NMAMIT being an autonomous college has freedom to incorporate these requirements. This will hugely benefit the students in getting a suitable placement quickly and also the industry who want to hire skilled engineers. The industries are getting the double benefit of saving of manpower training cost and the time.
Mr. Kiran Hebbar, Director KH Designs said presently more than one lakh mechanical design engineers are working in more than 400 engineering centers in India. Forecast is that by 2022, it will be three lakh mechanical design engineers. The training provided by KH Designs caters to students who want to purse design as a career. The students are trained on both tool and domain skills.
Presently in the current year a batch of 50 students is undergoing the skill development training programme. In the next year about 100 students will get trained to become design engineers. Students will be trained over a year on CAD, New Product development process (NPD), GD&T, Plastic part design, sheet metal part design and die casting part design.
