NCC
The National Cadet Corps is the Indian military cadet corps. It is open to school and college
students on voluntary basis. National Cadet Corps is a Tri-Services Organization, comprising
the Army, Navy and Air Force, engaged in grooming the youth of the country into disciplined and
patriotic citizens. The National Cadet Corps in India is a voluntary organization which recruits cadets
from high schools, colleges and universities all over India. The Cadets are given basic military
training in small arms and parades. The officers and cadets have no liability for active military service
once they complete their course but are given preference over normal candidates during selections
based on the achievements in the corps.
NCC also develops the discipline in students as well as qualities like leadership, team spirit,
decision making, etc. The various camps are also organised to give military training to the cadets.
Recently 11 students from our department have participated in the Annual Training Camp held by 50
Mah Bn Aurangabad. All the 11 students have undergone through the weapon training, drill training,
map reading and many more that required by Army in war and peace time.

MIT is a premier institute in Maharashtra and India. The management and faculty staff have created
extraordinary skill-development facilities of MIT. Mechanical engineering is the most versatile
2
branch in engineering. The students should develop technical skills while on campus. Imagine a
surgeon not having skills to operate upon the patient. Every mechanical engineer must be able to work
on machines. Engineers must equate themselves to 'surgeons' and not 'managers'. Make in India will
be a great success only through skills development.
Project Title: - Internal Thread Inspection Iot
MASSIA and GIZ assigned a project to the Engineering
students in month of July 2016 to explore with the industrial
problems. Students from MIT (T) AND MIT (E) were
participated in this event of MASSIA and GIZ for concept of
"Summer Project". Student of MIT (T) from B.Tech
completed a project named as "Internal Thread Inspection
IoT" and also won the 1st Prize for the same.
Our students developed a Internal Thread Inspection IoT
machine which check the internal thread of an auto
component and also gives the record of checked component
with OK JOB and NOT OK JOB on the generated MOBILE
APPLICATION through an Internet connected to the system.
This machine reduced fatigue of the worker also increased
the inspection rate by 3 times the actual inspection rate. Real
time data of an inspection component with internal thread is
store on the cloud and retrieve the information on mobile
application.
Outcome of Project: - 1) Reduced Manual Effort and Fatigue to check the internal thread.
2) Proper counting of OK JOB AND NOT OK JOB with Internal thread.

Music
No one can actually predict when music came into existence. Music is divided mainly in 3 periods Ancient, Medieval and Modern.
ANCIENT PERIOD:In the Vedic literature, it is said that at that time sages used to sing and their
wives used to play instruments like Veena. Amongst the four Vedic scriptures, “Samved” was
primarily music based. The „matras„ in Samved were recited in vocal form and were known as
“Samgan“.
The age of Ramayana and Mahabharata is considered to be the golden age of Gandarbha music.
Possibly during this era, the seven swars known as Sa, Re, Ga, Ma, Pa, Dha, Ni came into existence.
The seven swars, their root words and scriptural dieties are given below:
1. SA The root word is swaraj, respect to deity god Agni.
2. RE The root word is Rishabh,respect to deity Lord Brahma.
3. GA The root word is gandhar, respect to deity goddess saraswati.
4. MA The root word is Madhyam , respect to deity lord Shiva.
5. PA The root word is Panchama, respect to deity Lord Vishnu.
6. DHA The root word is Dhaivat, respect to deity lord Ganesha.
7. NI The root word is Nishad, respect to deity god Surya.
3
MEDIVEL PERIOD: King Akbar was a keen lover of music and patronized maestros like Nayak
Bakru, Tansen, Tantarang Gopal etc in his court. Tansen is considered to be the creator of Ragas in
Indian music.
MODERN PERIOD: It started at the end of 19th century from where music became a trend. In past
decades,music has been in form of khyaal or western music.
A few of the organizations that promote classical music include Saptak, Sangeet Sankalp, and SPIC
MACAY, which was established in 1977 and has more than 500 chapters in India and abroad. SPIC
MACAY claims to hold around 5000 events every year related to Indian classical music and dance.

Project Title: SPM Design For Removing Paper Insulation From
Transformer Conductor.
MASSIA (Marathwada Association of Small Scale Industries & Agricultural) and GIZ (Deutsche
Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit) assigned a short period „Summer Challenge Project‟
to the „Engineering and Technology‟ student to explore their technology knowledge to solving the
industrial problem. MASSIA is the small an organization which is related Marathwada region and
GIZ also an organization which is situated at „Germany‟ and works in a variety of fields, namely as
Economic development and employment, government, democracy and poverty reduction, education,
health and social security, environment and infrastructure, and agriculture, fisheries and food. GIZ
works primarily with states, state agencies, and the private sector (and not normally with for example
non-governmental organizations, universities or research organizations).
Student from MIT (T) and MIT (E) were participated in this event. From both Institute they
completed their project name as
„SPM Design for Removing Paper
Insulation
from
Transformer
Conductor‟ and also won the 2nd prize
for this event.
Description about Project: Special
Purpose Machine for removing paper
insulation
from
transformer
conductor is a concept arises due to
watching difficulties in conventional
procedure going in the industry for
removing insulation from conductor.
In the company, this operation is been
performed manually. The employee
will remove insulation by using
single point cutting tool and the bends
in the conductor is straighten by hammer blows. However, there are certain drawbacks of this process.
Analyzing these drawbacks in the conventional procedure, with the reference to our teachers and
coordinators experience, we tried to make something new and finally an attempt is made in the form
of Special Purpose Machine for removing paper insulation from transformer conductor.
In this machine the conductor is passed through horizontal and vertical stages of rollers for bend
straightening. Transverse and longitudinal bends are straightened by vertical and horizontal rollers
respectively. Then it is passed through pair of rotary cutters for removing insulation from it. Finally
uniform scratch free conductor leaves the SPM. The SPM design is advantageous than conventional
process.

Outcome of Project:
 Scratch free conductor is obtained.
 No impact and residual stresses in it.
 Automation is involved, hence processing time is reduced.
 Less manpower required.
 High level of quality and accuracy.

Google Startup Weekend Aurangabad
-By Maithili Deshmukh(TY A)
Startup Weekend is an initiative powered by Google for Entrepreneurs. This 54-hour event that allows
anyone to turn an idea into reality is conducted in numerous cities around the globe.
For the first time ever in Marathwada region, the event was held in Government Engineering College,
Aurangabad from 12th to 14th August, 2016. It started on Friday evening when a total of 54
participants pitched their ideas. The top 10 ideas were voted for, and then teams were formed around
the
top
ideas.
We
spent
the
rest
of the weekend validating and building the idea, aided by local mentors. On Sunday evening, all
teams came together and pitched their own newly-launched company to a panel of judges.
I, Maithili, am a part of the 6-member team named „Tourssist‟ which won the first prize. That is also
the name of our company. We aim at providing 24*7 assistance of any kind to foreign travelers in
India. Ours is a service-based company. But we also have a product in the form of a websitewww.tourssist.com and a mobile app is in progress.
Sharayu Samrit, Aishwarya Rathi, Samruddhi Yelikar and 2 other members of the team called „Paper
bricks‟- shared the third prize with another team. Their idea is to convert waste paper into a form of
fuel and other usable products. Their Minimum Viable Product is the paper brick.
On the 17th of august, we the students of MIT Btech, who had participated and won in this
competition, held a presentation regarding the event, its concept and our wonderful experience. The
main auditorium was filled with Mechanical engineering students of second, third and final year as
well as final year students of all branches of Btech and MBA. The four of us shared our team‟s startup
plan. Dignitaries like Director General Mr. Munish Sharma, Principal Dr. Santosh Bhosale, Prof.
Vinay Chidri, Prof. Leena Coates, Dr. Ashok Keche- all graced the occasion.

We were very happy with the tremendous response of all students and teachers. Hopefully, an event
like the Startup Weekend will be conducted soon again, and more students from MIT will participate
in it and get inspired!
Interest Group of Entrepreneurs
-By Maithili Deshmukh(TYA)
Times are changing. Engineers are now mocked and looked down upon, because we are a large
number and a huge percent of us are unemployed. And when the brightest graduates get employment,
“My son has a package of one lakh in that IT Company in USA.” Say the proud parents whose son
then settles in that foreign land, content with his life.
Isn‟t there something wrong here?
Why do we dream of getting a job, that too with a particular „package‟ expectation? What about our
own India- the land where we grew up, the country which made us who we are…? Why don‟t we
dream of uplifting it? Why don‟t we dream of giving back to our country?
There IS a way we can make India come out of the „developing‟ stage and make it a „developed‟
nation. And especially for mechanical engineers, it is possible by increasing the number of indigenous
industries! If we depend less on other countries like China and start making our own productsanything from cars to machines to electronic appliances… we will surely rise in terms of the Gross
Domestic Product. The country‟s income will shoot up when we start exporting our very own
products abroad.
This is where entrepreneurship comes into picture. An entrepreneur is someone who sets up his own
company, runs it, takes full responsibility for it and makes a product which is useful in the market. He
is much more than a businessman because he has the capability to think of an idea, identify an
existing problem, get a solution and work upon that with effort and dedication. Money is a by-product
for him.
Today, running a start-up has been made easier, thanks to the Make In India and Make In Maharashtra
campaigns run by the government. Proper guidance, seed fund, resources- so many things can be
attained, if we know the right procedure to make use of these schemes. Let us really think about it…
how different will our life be, if we stop looking for a regular 9 to 5 job with a fixed salary and a
mundane routine, and instead we decide to tread the path of entrepreneurship! Everyday will be a
challenge. A struggle. A tough climb. But the result will be extraordinary. We will be known as
leaders. We will be independent; we will be our own boss. And most importantly, we will create
employment for many! With this spirit, we have formed an Interest Group of Entrepreneurs. We hold
meetings, group discussions, expert talks from entrepreneurs and industrial visits which will help us
understand more about entrepreneurship, industries and today‟s situation. Every IGE activity up till
now has been a source of immense inspiration. If you are interested in becoming an entrepreneur, feel
free to join us.

Germany Calling!!!
By:-Pranav Bagadia (Btech A)German
universities combine research and studies and
have been the place for ground-breaking
discoveries such as the printing press, computer
and mp3 that have become inseparable parts of
our modern lives along with the cycles on which
the 1.2 Billion Automobiles work worldwide such
as the Otto and Diesel Cycle.International
Programmers are taught in English medium,
quality of education is high, there are promising
career opportunities and above all, the social and cultural milieu is vibrant.Indians opt for Germany as
their third most preferable destination after the US and the UK with 2ndon the list of the top countries
of origin of international students enrolled in Master‟s degree program and PhD program which is
doubling every 4 years.The Universities in Germany are divided in the following
categories:Universities (including Universities of Technology, abbr. TU) are research-oriented
Universities of Applied Sciences (Fachhochschulen, abbr. FH), on the other hand, are practiceoriented and offer courses mainly in engineering, business administration, social sciences and design.
These have strong links to the industry.In Germany, every university is autonomous. This means that
every university / study programme has its own set of criteria for admitting students thus a
standardized list of prerequisites isn‟t possible. Some universities may ask for your
TOEFL/IELTS/GRE/GMAT scores, depending upon the subject you choose to study. In Germany,
education is subsidized by the Federal and State Governments of Germany and therefore statefunded institutions of higher education charge no tuition fee.Thus, in Germany virtually every student
gets a scholarship!
There will arise a need to pay semester contribution of around Euro 50 to 250, depending upon the
university and the services or benefits provided. For certain special courses one may pay higher fees.
7
As an international student, one is permitted to work for 120 full days or 240 half days in a year. This
will help in getting a bit of extra pocket-money! After completing the degree in Germany, a stay in the
country for up to 18 months to look for a job that is in keeping with your education is viable.The work
life and the quality of life in Germany and the EU are quite exceptional even as compared to the US.
Germany has got a 40 hour work culture even for professionals working in the Mechanical
engineering domain. Along with this there is an extra month salary which is credited to one along
with his/her 12 month salary along with 4 week paid vacation.Indians are opting for their further
studies in Germany with ever increasing volumes year after year mainly for the Work-Life balance
Germany offers. It is predicted that Germany has a growing shortage of 1.5 Lac skilled computer and
Mechanical professionals in regards to it being the 2nd country in terms exports marginally losing to
China by $8 Billion (2.72%) as of 2015.Thus there is a huge scope not just for mechanical
engineering but for a lot of other streams. With innovation and research driven universities such as
TU Munich which is a competing force to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in terms of
research and patents filled, one should seriously consider Germany for their choice for their further
education.
