VALUE ADDED COURSES (VAC):

The Value Added Courses aim to provide additional learner centric graded skill oriented
technical training, with the primary objective of improving the employability skills of
engineering students. The main objectives of the program are:

1. To provide students an understanding of the expectations of industry.


2. To improve employability skills of engineering students
3. To bridge the skill gaps and make students industry ready.
4. To provide an opportunity to students to develop inter-disciplinary skills.

The Courses focus on skill development and more than 50% of the time is spent on practical
training and problem solving, to provide the requisite understanding towards application of
academic topics from engineering disciplines into real world engineering projects.
Note:
1. The proposed course should be lead by VAC Coordinator of the Department
2. The proposed course is to be handled with internal faculty (VAC Instructors) and
invited guest lecturers from Industry (with whom MoU is done).

About Matlab: MATLAB or (Matrix Laboratory) is a high performance fourth


generation programming language which is used for technical computing. It provides multi
paradigm numerical computing environment and was developed by Math Works. It is used
for integrating computation, visualization, and programming so that the programming
environment becomes easy to use. The applications of MATLAB are immense. It is a
powerful linear algebra tool with a very good collection of toolboxes; therefore it finds
applications in research and teaching on domains of robotics and automation.
Topics to be covered:
1. Basics of Matlab and MATLAB Compiler
 The Matlab user interface
 Working with Matlab data types
 Creating matrices and arrays
 Operators and control statements
 Using scripts and functions
 Data import and export
 Using the graphical features

2. Programming with simple examples


3. Discussion of Toolboxes with Applications
 Signal Processing
 Image Acquisition Toolbox
 Image Processing
 Neural Network
 Fuzzy Logic Toolbox

4. Simulink and Hardware Interfacing (Using Kits: Lego, Raspberry Pi, Mind storms
etc.)
