PREFACE
Curriculum development is a highly organized and systematic process
and involves a number of procedures. Many of these procedures include
incorporating the results from international research studies and reforms
made in other countries. These studies and reforms are then related to
the particular subject and the position in Pakistan so that the proposed
curriculum may have its roots in the socio-economics setup in which it is
to be introduced. Hence, unlike a machine, it is not possible to accept
any curriculum in its entirety. It has to be studied thoroughly and all
aspects are to be critically examined before any component is
recommended for adoption.
In exercise of the powers conferred by sub-section (1) of section 3 of the
Federal Supervision of Curricula Textbooks and Maintenance of
Standards of Education Act 1976, the Federal Government vide
notification No. D773/76-JEA (cur.), dated December 4th 1976, appointed
P P
the University Grants Commission as the competent authority to look

after the curriculum revision work beyond class XII at the bachelor level
and onwards to all degrees, certificates and diplomas awarded by
degree colleges, universities and other institutions of higher education.
In pursuance of the above decisions and directives, the Higher Education
Commission (HEC) is continually performing curriculum revision in
collaboration with universities. According to the decision of the special
meeting of Vice-Chancellor’s Committee, the curriculum of a subject
must be reviewed after every 3 years.
A committee of experts comprising of conveners from the National

Curriculum Revision of HEC in Basic, Applied Social Sciences and
Engineering disciplines met in April 2007 and developed a unified
template to standardize degree programs in the country to bring the
national curriculum at par with international standards, and to fulfill the
needs of the local industries. It also aimed to give a basic, broad based
knowledge to the students to ensure the quality of education. The new
BS degree shall be of 4 years duration, and will require the completion of
130-136 credit hours. The engineering degree will devote 65-70% of the
curriculum towards engineering courses, and 35--30% to non
Engineering courses.
For the purpose of curriculum revision various committees are

constituted at the national level, comprising of senior teachers nominated
by universities, degree awarding institutions, R&D organizations and
4
respective accreditation councils. The National Curriculum Revision
Committee for Mechanical Engineering in a meeting held on January 31,
2008 at the HEC Head Office, Islamabad revised the curriculum in light
of the unified template. The final draft prepared by the National
Curriculum Revision Committee, duly approved by the competent
authority, is being circulated for implementation in the concerned
institutions.

INTRODUCTION
A special meeting of National Curriculum Revision Committee (NCRC) in
Mechanical Engineering was held on January 31, 2008 at HEC,
Islamabad to finalize the draft curriculum prepared during previous
meetings. The committee greatly appreciated the excellent work done by
NCRC members during their meeting held on June 12-13, 2007 at HEC
Regional Center, Lahore to adjust the mechanical engineering curriculum
as per standardized template which required very minor changes to
finalize the draft.

NATIONAL CURRICULUM REVISION COMMITTEE SPECIAL

MEETING FOR MECHANICAL ENGINEERING CURRICULUM FROM
12-13 JUNE, 2007 AT HEC REGIONAL CENTRE, LAHORE
A special two day meeting of National Curriculum Revision Committee

(NCRC) in Mechanical Engineering was held on June 12-13, 2007 at
HEC Regional Center, Lahore.
The meeting started with the recitation from the Holy Quran. Mr. Arshad
Kamran Director HEC Regional Center Lahore welcomed the
participants of the meeting. Mr. Shafiullah Khan Assistant Director HEC
Islamabad briefed the participants that the said meeting was convened
with the objectives to make necessary changes in the curriculum of
Mechanical Engineering finalized during August 2006 in the light of
standardized template / framework developed by the joint meeting of
conveners of NCRCs for under graduate studies in Engineering
disciplines on April 21, 2007 at HEC Islamabad to bring at par the
curricula of Engineering disciplines with international standard.
The members unanimously selected Prof. Dr. Javed A. Chattha as

Convener and Dr. Mohammad Sultan Khan as Secretary for the meeting.
During the two day meeting, the committee worked to adjust the
mechanical engineering curriculum as per the standardized template.
The semester wise curriculum has been modified to the best possible
extent.
However to implement the semester system more effectively the

universities should be provided the required facilities.

Mechanical engineering is one of the most important engineering
deciplines that may be supported by HEC for Faculty Development. In
this regard the Mechanical Engineering Departments of all the
Universities should be granted at least five scholarships per year for
Ph.D studies abroad over a period of five year. It is also emphasized that
implementation of the recommendations made in the previous meetings
may be facilitated by HEC.

Recommendations for B.E / B.Sc Program in
Mechanical Engineering
1. After going through an exhaustive three-day exercise, the
National Curriculum Revision Committee (NCRC) has finalized a set of
revised curriculum of Mechanical Engineering to help the various
universities throughout the country in maintaining international level of
standard. All the recommendations received by the committee were
thoroughly discussed and incorporated accordingly. It is general
consensus that in order to implement the newly finalized curricula
effectively, the following requirements are mandatory:
(i) The universities be properly equipped with adequate
experimental facilities
(ii) The status of faculty should also be assessed to maintain a
reasonable teacher/ student ratio
(iii) It is felt necessary to provide Teaching Assistants (TA) to the
instructors.
(iv) A system of teacher’s training should also be introduced into the
system.
(v) It is felt that a feedback of the universities be made available to
the Curriculum Revision Committee at the time of next Revision
to help it in assessing the effectiveness of its recommendation.
2. The Committee strongly feels that the matter of internship be

taken up on top priority. A guided and controlled system of training is felt
mandatory. A minimum of six-week training be administered during the
vacations between third and fourth year of studies. A comprehensive
report should be submitted after the completion of training for evaluation
and the students are given credit accordingly. Moreover, a reasonable
budgeted amount be paid to trainees to cover the traveling and other
expenses through internship stipend (not less than Rs.6000/ month per
student).
3. A sample semester/term wise distribution of courses is given in

Annexure-A. Choice of distribution of the courses is left to individual
institutions depending upon their local facilities.
Some courses are split up and offered as part-I and part-II. The
departments may, depending on their teaching methods merge/split
them, provided all course contents are covered.
The suggested titles of the courses can be changed provided the

contents of the courses are the same.
73
The committee emphasized the use of computer software / programs,
provided by HEC, in all the related courses. However it was felt that
majority of the departments are not equipped with appropriate branded
computers to run these computing intensive programs. The non-branded
machines currently available are not reliable enough to be used for these
programs. The departments of Mechanical Engineering require additional
software over and above already provided. It is therefore strongly
recommended that HEC should take a lead to facilitate mechanical
engineering departments in acquiring the requisite brand of computer
equipment. A computer Lab. of 40 such computers would cost
approximately Rs. 3 million. The acquisition of up-to-date software is a
continuous process and additionally required software should be
procured in line with the exercise already carried out.
74
Recommendations for Postgraduate Program in
Mechanical Engineering
After sessions of in-depth discussions the National Curriculum Revision

Committee (NCRC) has proposed syllabi of Master’s Program in
Mechanical Engineering.
It is highlighted that the Masters Program in Mechanical Engineering

includes the curriculum of Master Program in Manufacturing Engineering
which is being offered as a separate program by Mechanical Engineering
department of various universities.
1. Salient features of the program:

a) The program is of minimum 30 credit hours with the following
breakup:
i. Eight courses of twenty four (24) credit hours
ii. Thesis research of Six (6) credits
b) Every subject course is of three credit hours
c) Eight courses of 24 credits are split as
i. One compulsory mathematics course - 3
credits
ii. Three core subjects, to be selected form core courses of
sub-specialties – 9 credits
iii. Four additional courses to be selected from the list of
courses - 12 credits
d) The Master’s Program is of minimum 18 months duration
comprising 3 semesters
e) The recommended Master’s Program contains sub-specialties of
Mechanical Engineering currently offered by the universities. Any
addition to the program by a university will be reviewed in next
NCRC meeting.
f) The suggested titles of the courses are not mandatory and can
be changed provided the contents of the courses are the same.
g) The committee recommended that the department may allow
student to choose a relevant elective subject from another
specialty / department subject to recommendation of the student
advisor for M.Sc. Program.
h) Individual university may add additional courses depending on its
specific needs.
75
2. It is recommended that the HEC should provide exclusive funding for
the development/updating of post graduate laboratories to
encourage R&D activities at post graduate level.
3. The Committee strongly recommends that the Masters Program

syllabus is the first draft prepared during this meeting and requires
feed back from the universities and academic experts. It is therefore
recommended that another meeting should be held to finalize the
Masters Program after receiving feed back.
Note: The representative of NED University could not participate in the

discussions of Masters Curriculum as per directives from the
university.

SOCIOLOGY AND DEVELOPMENT
Objectives:
The main objective of this course is to apprise potential engineers about
social factors that contribute towards enhancing their professional
performance for the good of society and the country. This course is
culture specific and has to be taught within the context of local and
national socio-economic environment. The engineers are expected to
supervise several people in different capacities and their understanding
about human behaviour is critical for their optimum performance.
Modification of human behaviour or getting work done from sub-
ordinates and seniors remain a major challenge for all the professional
engineers. This course will enhance understanding about the
determinants of human behaviour, which ultimately will result in improved
individual efficiency.
