This is a one-year’s course intended to give intensive on-the-joy practical experience to those who have successfully completed the Basic Course in the Institute. The main aim of the Course is to give training to the student under conditions similar to those in a factory and training is mainly through executing job orders received from Industries. Hence the will to do this whole-heartedly and improve speed and accuracy is a basic pre-requisite. Wherever possible, a standard time is set for a job and the trainee is encourage to attain this speed and accuracy. The practical training is backed with theory subjects to enable the trainee attain a high standard of knowledge in subjects of Mechanical Engineering pertaining to an Engineering Workshop. With the whole hearted effort of the boy, he is bound to gain a sound knowledge and skill in operating the machines of a general engineering production shop and can be usefully employed by industrial workshops.

The admission to this course will be limited to those : (i) Who sincerely desire to reach a higher level of learning than that of the Basic Course both in the Theory and Practicals. (ii) Whose conduct and attitude to training in the Basic Course have been found good. (iii) Who have scored a minimum of 40 percent of marks in the theory subjects and 60 percent in the practicals in the Basic Course (sessionals and final tests).

The progress of the trainee will be checked by periodical tests. At the end of the Course there will be a final examination. Successful candidates scoring a minimum of 40 percent in theory and 60 percent in practicals (sessionals and final exams) will be awarded a Diploma in Mechanical Craftsmanship, and the others a Course Certificate. Supplementary examinations are not allowed.

As fixed by the Management from time to time to be paid before admission. No stipend, scholarship or freeship will be given by the Institute. No refund of any fees paid is admissible.

All the general rules and regulations of the Institute in force at the time of admission to the advanced course and those that may be modified / framed during the period of training will have to be strictly adhered to.
