Questions
Which syllabus is followed?
The current AKTU (Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow) B.Tech syllabus of Engineering Graphics and Design Lab (Semester 1, all branches). If your university or college follows a different syllabus, the centre teaches from your own university syllabus.
Are both manual drawing and CAD taught?
Yes. Sheets are first drawn manually and then the same drawings are practised in AutoCAD.
How is the lab assessed?
By drawing sheets / CAD drawings, accuracy and neatness, the sketch book and a viva, as in the AKTU lab examination.
