Webinar on 3D Printing Technology
Resource Person : Dr.Raghaveendra K
Date : 5th June 2021
Participants : IV ECE, III ECE and II ECE Students
Outcome of the Program :
The webinar on “3 D Printing Technology” was conducted by Dr.Raghaveendra. Dr.Raghaveendra currently working as an associate professor in jyothi institute of technology and is in charge of CIIRC which is a research incubation center.
3D printing or additive manufacturing is a process of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital file. The creation of a 3D printed object is achieved using additive processes. In an additive process an object is created by laying down successive layers of material until the object is created. Each of these layers can be seen as a thinly sliced cross-section of the object. 3D printing is the opposite of subtractive manufacturing which is cutting out / hollowing out a piece of metal or plastic with for instance a milling machine. 3D printing enables you to produce complex shapes using less material than traditional manufacturing methods. It all starts with a 3D model. You can opt to create one from the ground up or download it from a 3D library. There are many different software tools available. The most recommended software for beginners is Tinker cad. Tinkercad is free and works in your browser, you don’t have to install it on your computer. Tinkercad offers beginner lessons and has a built-in feature to export your model as a printable file e.g .STL or .OBJ. Now that you have a printable file, the next step is to prepare it for your 3D printer. This is called slicing. Slicing basically means slicing up a 3D model into hundreds or thousands of layers and is done with slicing software. Adoption of 3D printing has reached critical mass as those who have yet to integrate additive manufacturing somewhere in their supply chain are now part of an ever-shrinking minority. Where 3D printing was only suitable for prototyping and one-off manufacturing in the early stages, it is now rapidly transforming into a production technology. As it evolves, 3D printing technology is destined to transform almost every major industry and change the way we live, work, and play in the future.
3D printing encompasses many forms of technologies and materials as 3D printing is being used in almost all industries you could think of. It’s important to see it as a cluster of diverse industries with a myriad of different applications.
A few examples:
- – consumer products (eyewear, footwear, design, furniture)
- – industrial products (manufacturing tools, prototypes, functional end-use parts)
- – dental products
- – prosthetics
- – architectural scale models & maquettes
- – reconstructing fossils
- – replicating ancient artefacts
- – reconstructing evidence in forensic pathology
- – movie props
From the above discussion we can easily identify the immense possibilities available for 3 D printing technology scenario in our country. The speaker also welcomed the students to visit their incubation center to obtain an in-depth working knowledge of the technology. The webinar session was followed by a Q and A session where the students interacted with the speaker.

Webinar on Career Planning for Future Engineers
Resource Person : Mr.Supreeth .Y.S
Facebook India ambassador,Hacker Earth ambassador,
Co founder and CEO , Tequered Labs
Date : 11th June 2021
Participants : IV ECE, III ECE and II ECE Students
Outcome of the Program :
The webinar on “Career Planning for Future Engineers” was conducted by Mr.Supreeth .Y.S, Facebook India ambassador,HackerEarth ambassador,Co founder and CEO , Tequered Labs.Mr Supreeth started the seminar in an interactive way where he enquired about the future plans the attendees had about their career.
The speaker suggested a 5 step plan for analysing your future career.
Step 1 : SELF ASSESMENT
The better you know yourself, the better your choices will be. Knowing your personality, interests, values and skills will help you identify the jobs and businesses as well as personal and professional career goals best suited to your dreams. A self-assessment can also help you identify any knowledge and/or skills you might need to acquire, or the personal qualities you might need to achieve your career goals.
To do a self-assessment, write a list of a few things under each heading:
- • Personality: What motivates you and makes you happy?
- • Interests: What are you passionate about?
- • Values: What is important to you?
- • Skills: What are you good at?
There are many free personality and career planning tools online to help inform your self-assessment
Step 2 : RESEARCH YOUR OPTIONS
Now you know a little more about yourself, you can start to research the opportunities that play to your strengths and will ultimately deliver a rewarding career. The good news here is that your options may be wider than you initially thought. Often the hard part is narrowing down these options and finding the one that suits you the best.
You can narrow your options by researching companies, reviewing career information such as particular career paths and by talking to professionals in the field. Another invaluable way to help narrow the options is by taking part in experiences such as volunteering and internships. These give you first-hand experience in the field and can help you decide if you want to pursue that career path or not
If you’re still studying, take advantage of the services your university provides and meet with a Career Advisor, or gather advice from friends, colleagues and family members. Take time to consider all the potential outcomes and barriers for each of your options
Step 3 : SET YOU GOALS
Setting SMART goals is an effective way to help you achieve your goals:
- • Specific: be clear about what you want to achieve
- • Measurable: define a physical way that helps you see you’ve achieved your goal
- • Achievable: don’t set yourself up to fail; make your goal attainable
- • Relevant: make sure the goal matters to you
- • Time bound: setting a deadline ensures your goal isn’t left unactioned and forgotten.
Step 4: DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT A PLAN
If you’re in the early stages of your degree, identifying multiple career paths may be a good idea. If you’re nearing the end of your degree, narrowing to one or two options will help focus your job search or graduate school applications.
When creating your plan, it’s important to be realistic about expectations and timelines. Write down the specific steps you need to take to achieve your goals, and check them off as you complete them. Keep in mind your goals and priorities may change, so amend your career plan as needed. This leads us to the final step.
Step 5: REVIEW AND ADJUST YOUR PLAN
Life happens and unpredictable events and changes can occur over time. View your plan as a guide, and allow space for adjustments. The original plan you create may not be relevant once you’ve achieved certain goals and experienced other job and life events.
Reviewing your plan will help clarify your thinking and can help you decide if you need to change your strategy, get advice on how to achieve your goals, or put more effort into achieving them.
Following are few tips you need to implement for a proper career progression:
- After your engineering graduation, go for an internship program for at least three months of duration to gain some hands-on work experience.
- Create a mind map of whatever thought comes to your mind related to your career.
- Refer career books and online education blogs to make an informed decision.
- Make a list of various career options in which you are interested.
- Go for any short-term course program to strengthen your core subject knowledge.
- If you are planning for higher education, then plan it in the final year of your degree course.
- Submit your Resume on various online job websites and portals to find better job opportunities.
- Take a peek at your work expertise and utilize it as a starting point. Then think about where you want to be. Does there seem to be a next logical step?
- Work on your resume or cover letter that reflects the work you have done or work you can do. also, exhibits on what work experience or education would be a differentiator for you so that you could go on to do what you want to do.
- Remember that career planning isn’t “set it and forget it.” You need to plan and then re-evaluate every six months to a year or so.
- It doesn’t matter how old you are or how late you start. Starting now is what matters.
- Don’t just evaluate your immediate situation. Look at the job landscape and the types of disappearing jobs, the ones that are flatlining and experiencing growth. You can find that information here.
- Think about your current company’s opportunities, if that interests you.
From the above discussion we can easily identify the importance of career planning for obtaining the correct job that suits the taste of the individual. The webinar session was followed by a Q and A session where the students interacted with the speaker.

Electromobility or e-mobility is the use of electric cars, as well as e-bikes or pedelecs, electric motorbikes, e-buses and e-trucks. The common feature of all of them is that they are fully or partly driven electrically, have a means of storing energy on board, and obtain their energy mainly from the power grid. Electric cars are quiet, efficient and low-emission and have mainly been used to date in cities, where they’re ideal for delivery services, taxis and car sharing.
Hybrid vehicles combine two powertrain technologies. They can usually cover shorter distances with their electric drive, but their combustion engine means they can also manage long journeys without any problem. Hybrid cars that not only use the electricity recovered when they taxi or brake, but can also be recharged from the socket, are termed plug-in hybrids. Hybrids are regarded as a bridging technology until a time when cars can be fully powered by electricity.
Electrical energy is stored in a rechargeable battery. Devices termed inverters convert the battery’s direct current into alternating current for driving the electric motor. The more efficient conversion is, the longer a car can travel when a battery is fully charged. Finally, an electric motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy: The e-motor obtains this energy to generate magnetic fields. Their attractive and repellent forces produce a rotational motion.
Other core components of an e-car are the DC-DC converter. It converts the battery’s high voltage (100-400 volts or more) efficiently into a far lower voltage (12 or, if applicable, 48 volts) for electronic components.
E-cars have to be charged from the socket to stay mobile. 80 percent of owners recharge them from the socket at home, according to a study by the German Federal Association for eMobility. That takes at least eight hours, depending on the vehicle and battery. However, not every socket is designed to handle large amounts of electricity flowing over a lengthy time. That problem is solved by wall boxes at home, which make recharging almost four times faster. Charging a battery at public alternating current (AC) stations takes just as long, whereas only one hour is needed at direct current (DC) fast charging stations. The reason: The battery in an e-car has to be charged with direct current, but the electricity from the public grid is alternating current. The car’s inverter first has to convert it. That’s why charging at AC stations takes longer than at DC ones. The latter convert the electricity into direct current before charging and pass it on directly to the car’s battery. These fast DC charging stations enable high charging performance, but are rarer at present because they are more expensive. A special cable is required to use both types of charging station. The time needed to charge a car will soon be reduced to 20 minutes or less thanks to efficient technology such as ultra-high-power chargers and improved batteries.
From the above discussion we can easily identify the immense possibilities available for e mobility scenario in our country. The speakers also welcomed the students to visit their factory location to obtain an in-depth working knowledge of the industry. The webinar session was followed by a Q and A session where the students interacted with the speakers.
