Description
This Diploma Program, offered by TIET and CADCIM Technologies, USA, is designed for the
students in mechanical disciplines to help them understand the product designing process and acquire
skills required to ideate, design, and develop a practically viable product. It will also help them in
learning real-world industry practices and processes involved in manufacturing, thereby making them
industry-ready and productive from day one. The courses offered in this program will include
explanation of the basic concepts, tools and techniques to advance concepts and technologies involved
in the product development process, all important tools and their real-world applications in
conformity with widely accepted ISO standards, GD&T, and standard practices followed in the
manufacturing processes in industry.
Key Features of the Program
- The training will be provided by the faculty who have long been associated with industry and have a good understanding of teaching pedagogy.
- The student will be provided a chance to visit an industrial site to see the live applications of the software learned.
- The training will be provided on the latest software packages.
- The students will be provided placement guidance on successful completion of the course.
- A mock interview/test will be conducted in professional settings to give you an idea of what you
need to do while appearing for a job interview. Industry professionals will be a part of it and will
give you necessary feedback on it so that you practice and prepare for the real job interview.
- An assessment test will be conducted to evaluate the students and provide feedback.
- Students will be encouraged to create an online portfolio showcasing their profile with links
and videos.
- TIET will provide an internship opportunity to meritorious students after completion of the
program.
- The students will be provided assistance in preparing professional resume to make it stand out and
to help them find their dream job.

Course Outline
Module 1
Drafting Using Autodesk AutoCAD
The topics covered are mentioned below. You will be assigned various projects for better understanding of the concepts and tools learned.
- Understanding AutoCAD tools
- Generating 2D drawings
- Creating orthographic views
- Creating isometric view
- Creating general arrangement (GA) drawings
- Detailing & drafting
Projects
After completion of the topics of this module, the students will be assigned various projects to work on
for better understanding of the concepts and tools learned. Some of the projects will be done under the
guidance of the instructor and, and the others, individually by the students themselves.
In addition to AutoCAD software, the students will learn the following designing concepts:
- Fundamentals of design
- Traditional designing methods
- Use of standards in design
- Aesthetic and ergonomic considerations in design
- Understanding various measuring instruments
- Understanding manufacturing drawings
- Design of machine elements
- Use of fasteners such as Nuts, Bolts, Washers, etc and their applications and torque requirements
- Threads and their specifications
- Left Hand (LH) thread, Right Hand (RH) thread, and their applications
- Common tools used in manufacturing like taps, drills, reamers, broaches, etc
- Specifying the hole and slot dimensions based on the tools used to machine them
Module 2
Modeling Using 3D Designing Software
[Note: You can choose any one (preferably two) of the following 3D software packages:
SOLIDWORKS, NX, CATIA, Solid Edge, Inventor, Creo Parametric, Fusion 360]
The topics covered are mentioned below. You will be assigned various projects for better
understanding of the concepts and tools learned.
- Creating 3D models
- Creating assemblies of components
- Creating surface models
- Detailing and drafting
- Creating sheet metal components
- Rendering of models
- Motion simulation
Projects
After completion of the topics of this module, the students will be assigned various projects on 3D
machine components to reinforce the skills gained and practice the tools learned. Some of the projects
will be done under the guidance of the instructor, and the others, individually by the students
themselves.
In addition to the software, the students will learn the following engineering concepts:
