The M.Tech. Digital Manufacturing programme provides a comprehensive learning experience that blends theoretical knowledge with practical application. The education is delivered through a mix of live online lectures and hands-on experiential learning. Live lectures are conducted by faculty mostly on weekends or after business hours, enabling working professionals to attend from anywhere using an online technology-enabled platform. The experiential learning component includes lab exercises, assignments, case studies, and work-integrated activities. The programme makes extensive use of Online Labs & Simulations, where learners perform a variety of experiments using industry-scale simulation software. These include: Proteus Virtual Lab for designing, testing, and debugging embedded systems; DFMA Virtual Lab for product simplification and cost reduction; Automation Studio Virtual Lab for mechatronics circuit design and simulation; Design for Additive Manufacturing Lab using ANSYS additive suite; Additive Manufacturing Process Lab using Autodesk Fusion 360 and Ultimaker Cura; Flexible Manufacturing Systems Lab for metal cutting and CNC/CAM programming; Embedded System Design Lab using MikroC Pro C compiler; Cyber Security in Manufacturing Lab using Kali Linux; and Mechanisms and Robotics Lab using MATLAB. Additionally, the Remote Lab allows participants to perform controlled experiments from anywhere in the world through IoT-enabled lab equipment and integrated remote access network, available 24/7/365. Specific remote lab experiments include IIoT Lab exercises for creating connected things, acquiring & displaying sensor data, and operating & controlling a water bottling plant remotely. The programme also features an annual conclave to network, learn, and share best practices with leading industry professionals and academicians. The curriculum emphasizes real-world application through carefully chosen case studies and assignments, culminating in a dissertation project in the final semester.
