Dr.Anand Loka, Scientist at NIO, gave a talk on fields and jobs available for Electronics and Telecommunication Engineers at NIO. The students were also provided with information on Autonomous robots and machines( Like AUV and AVP) which are used in Marine research for checking various aspects like water level etc.
DAY 4:- CORPORATE CULTURE

6th July 2017: A one day workshop on Group Coordination and Time Management was conducted by Mr. Rajesh Gaonkar . It was an interactive session where they discussed on the topics such as-“ what stops you as an individual to achieve something” .This session helped the students to build trust, time management, choose their goals, team work, team spirit.

DAY 5:-DESIGN OF MICROSTRIP PATCH ANTENNA AND MULTISIM SOFTWARE

7th July 2017: In the forenoon session a talk on Microstrip Patch Antenna and its Applications was conducted by Prof. Mohini Naik in which students were given information about different applications of antenna, antenna parameters and rectangular microstrip patch atenna was designed..
In the afternoon session Prof. Vishnu Rathod introduced them to Multisim simulation software. Using this simulation tools students designed circuits.

Week 2: Workshop on PLC AND SCADA

As a part of the in house training programme one week workshop on PLC and SCADA was conducted for the Third year Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering students in association with DBEATS from 10th July 2017 to 14th July 2017 at Don Bosco College of Engineering, Fatorda .The resource person for this one week workshop was Mr. Subodh Mone, Autotech, Mapusa.
PLC (Programmable logic controller) is an industrial computer control system that continuously monitors the state of input devices and makes the decisions based upon a custom program to control the state of output devices and SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) is a computer system that is used to gather and analyse real time data. SCADA systems are used to monitor and control a plant or equipment in industries such as Telecommunications ,water and waste control, energy , transportation etc.
In this workshop students learnt the PLC and SCADA Technology. They were given description on various components and areas related to PLC. Students were taught how to program PLC using DELTA WPL Software (Ladder programming). Wonderware software (intouch) was used to program SCADA. During this one week course numerous programs were written based on Industrial applications.
The students found the workshop interesting and very knowledgeable and useful for their future project work.
The internship was co-ordinated by Prof. Trima P. Fernandes e Fizardo and Prof Melba Lira D’Souza.
