Preamble
To meet the challenge of ensuring excellence in engineering education, the issue of quality needs to be
addressed, debated and taken forward in a systematic manner. Accreditation is the principal means of
quality assurance in higher education. The major emphasis of accreditation process is to measure the
outcomes of the program that is being accredited. In line with this Faculty o f Science and Technology (in
particular Engineering) of University of Mumbai has taken a lead in incorporating philosophy of outcome
based education in the process of curriculum development.
Faculty resolved that course objectives and course outcomes are t o be clearly defined for each course, so
that all faculty members in affiliated institutes understand the depth and approach of course to be taught,
which will enhance learner’s learning process. Choice based Credit and grading system enables a much -
requir ed shift in focus from teacher -centric to learner -centric education since the workload estimated is
based on the investment of time in learning and not in teaching. It also focuses on continuous evaluation
which will enhance the quality of education. Credi t assignment for courses is based on 15 weeks teaching
learning process, however content of courses is to be taught in 12 -13 weeks and remaining 2 -3 weeks to
be utilized for revision, guest lectures, coverage of content beyond syllabus etc.
There was a con cern that the earlier revised curriculum more focused on providing information and
knowledge across various domains of the said program, which led to heavily loading of students in terms
of direct contact hours. In this regard, faculty of science and techn ology resolved that to minimize the burden of
contact hours, total credits of entire program will be of 17 1, wherein focus is not only on providing knowledge but
also on building skills, attitude and self learning. Therefore in the present curriculum skill based laboratories and mini
projects are made mandatory across all disciplines of engineering in second and third year of programs, which will
definitely facilitate self learning of students. The overall credits and approac h of curriculum proposed in the present
revision is in line with AICTE model curriculum.
The present curriculum will be implemented for Second Year of Engineering from the academic year
2020 -21. Subsequently this will be carried forward for Third Year and Final Year Engineering in the
academic years 2021 -22, 2022 -23, respectively.

Incorporation and implementation of Online Contents from NPTEL/ Swayam
Platform

The curriculum revision is mainly focused on knowledge component, skill based activities and project
based activities. Self learning opportunities are provided to learners. In the revision process this time in
particular Revised syllabus of ‘C ‘ scheme wherever possible additional resource links of platforms such
as NPTEL, Swayam a re appropriately provided. In an earlier revision of curriculum in the year 2012 and
2016 in Revised scheme ‘A' and ‘B' respectively, efforts were made to use online contents more
appropriately as additional learning materials to enhance learning of studen ts.
In the current revision based on the recommendation of AICTE model curriculum overall credits are
reduced to 171, to provide opportunity of self learning to learner. Learners are now getting sufficient time
for self learning either through online cour ses or additional projects for enhancing their knowledge and
skill sets.
The Principals/ HoD’s/ Faculties of all the institute are required to motivate and encourage learners to use
additional online resources available on platforms such as NPTEL/ Swayam. Learners can be advised to
take up online courses, on successful completion they are required to submit certification for the same.
This will definitely help learners to facilitate their enhanced learning based on their interest.

Preface
Engineering education in India, in general, is being revamped so as to impart the theoretical knowledge along
with industrial exposure. It is our attempt, when we are introducing a new curriculum; to bridge the industry -
academia gap. To enable this, we have introduced components such as skill -based laboratories and project -
based learning. We trust that this will allow the learner to apply knowledge gained in previous and current
semesters to solve problems for gaining better understanding. What once were pure mechanical systems have
now been transformed into multidisciplinary systems of mechatronics, electronics and computer science.
Interdisciplinary knowledge is gaining importance as we are moving towards automated world as technology
advances. Keeping this in mind the curricul um has been designed in a way so that learner shall be acquainted
with many Interdisciplinary subjects.
Automobile Engineering is one of the fastest growing sectors, with lots of inventions and innovations
happening. The graduating Automobile Engineers ca n contribute in the areas such as engines, transmission,
safety and stability, energy and alternate energy etc. The challenges for our budding engineers would be
manifold, when electric vehicles are already gaining popularity and driverless cars becoming a reality.
Engineers develop new technological solutions. During the engineering design process, the responsibilities of
the engineer may include defining problems, conducting and narrowing research, analyzing criteria, finding
and analyzing solutions, and making decisions. The Program Educational Objectives proposed for the
undergraduate program in Automobile Engineering are listed below;
1. To prepare the stake holder to exhibit leadership qualities with demonstrable attributes in lifelong
learning to contr ibute to the societal needs.
2. To make ready the stake holder to pursue higher education for professional development
3. To help the stake holder to acquire the analytical and technical skills, knowledge, analytical ability
attitude and behavior through the pro gram
4. To prepare the stakeholders with a sound foundation in the mathematical, scientific and engineering
fundamentals
5. To motivate the learner in the art of self -learning and to use modern tools for solving real life problems
and also inculcate a profession al and ethical attitude and good leadership qualities
6. To Prepare the stake holder to able to Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design
system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the
public health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
We trust this revised version of syllabus come up to the expectations of all stakeholders. We wish to place on
record our sincere thanks and appreciations to the vari ous contributors from the academia and industry for their
most learned inputs in framing this syllabus.

Guidelines for Mini Project
 Students shall form a group of 3 to 4 students, while forming a group shall not be allowed less than
three or more than four students, as it is a group activity.
 Students should do survey and identify needs, which shall be conver ted into problem statement for
mini project in consultation with faculty supervisor/head of department/internal committee of
faculties.
 Students hall submit implementation plan in the form of Gantt/PERT/CPM chart, which will cover
weekly activity of mini p roject.
 A log book to be prepared by each group, wherein group can record weekly work progress,
guide/supervisor can verify and record notes/comments.
 Faculty supervisor may give inputs to students during mini project activity; however, focus shall be
on self-learning.
 Students in a group shall understand problem effectively, propose multiple solution and select best
possible solution in consultation with guide/ supervisor.
 Students shall convert the best solution into working model using various comp onents of their
domain areas and demonstrate.
 The solution to be validated with proper justification and report to be compiled in standard format
of University of Mumbai.
 With the focus on the self -learning, innovation, addressing societal problems and entrepreneurship
quality development within the students through the Mini Projects, it is preferable that a single
project of appropriate level and quality to be carried out in two semesters by all the groups of the
students. i.e. Mini Project 1 in semester III and IV. Similarly, Mini Project 2 in semesters V and
VI.
 However, based on the individual students or group capability, with the mentor’s
recommendations, if the propo sed Mini Project adhering to the qualitative aspects mentioned above
gets completed in odd semester, then that group can be allowed to work on the extension of the

67 Mini Project with suitable improvements/modifications or a completely new project idea in ev en
semester. This policy can be adopted on case by case basis.
Guidelines for Assessment of Mini Project:
Term Work
 The review/ progress monitoring committee shall be constituted by head of departments of
each institute. The progress of mini project to be evaluated on continuous basis, minimum
two reviews in each semester.
 In continuous assessment focus shall also be on each individual student, assessment based on
individual’s contribution in group activity, their understanding and response to questions.
 Distribution of Term work marks for both semesters shall be as below;
o Marks awarded by guide/supervisor based on log book : 10
o Marks awarded by review committee : 10
o Quality of Project report : 05
Review/progress monitoring committee may consider f ollowing points for assessment based
on either one year or half year project as mentioned in general guidelines.
One-year project:
 In first semester entire theoretical solution shall be ready, including components/system
selection and cost analysis. Two r eviews will be conducted based on presentation given by
students group.
 First shall be for finalisation of problem
 Second shall be on finalisation of proposed solution of problem.
 In second semester expected work shall be procurement of components/systems, building of
working prototype, testing and validation of results based on work completed in an earlier
semester.
 First review is based on readiness of building working prototype to be conducted.
 Second review shall be based on poster presentation cum demo nstration of working
model in last month of the said semester.

Half-year project:
 In this case in one semester students’ group shall complete project in all aspects including,
o Identification of need/problem
o Proposed final solution
o Procurement of componen ts/systems
o Building prototype and testing
 Two reviews will be conducted for continuous assessment,
 First shall be for finalisation of problem and proposed solution
 Second shall be for implementation and testing of solution.
