Vision:The IIITDM Teaching Learning Centre for Design and Manufacturing Education will be focused on developing nationwide initiatives to improve teaching and student learning in engineering universities, colleges, as well as polytechnics in the economically vital fields of innovative engineering design and manufacturing.

Mission:To be recognized as a leading centre in research, development and dissemination of innovative e-learning materials and affordable hands-on laboratory instructional modules for design and manufacturing education.

Manufacturing Education

Motivation:

The word engineering has its roots in the Latin term for ‘to create’. Engineering education is fundamentally practice-oriented, but in resource-poor academic institutions access to hands-on laboratory instruction is constrained by the high cost of equipment and instruments. Many teachers have limited training with state-of-art equipment, and so resort to purchase and use of commercial black-box type kits which provide students only limited learning outcomes.

The Teaching Learning Centre (TLC) for Design and Manufacturing Education at IIITDM - Kancheepuram is funded by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) under the Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya National Mission on Teachers and Teaching (PMMMNMTT) scheme. The TLC aims to design and develop e-learning materials and common Do-It-Yourself (DIY) and Build-Your-Own (BYO) low-cost laboratory instruction modules for adoption and use in engineering universities, colleges and polytechnics. The modules are mainly built using inexpensive commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) materials and components, open source hardware, and free open source software, making
