CURRICULUM (C-16) Semester Pattern
FOR DIPLOMA COURSES IN TELANGANA
I. PREAMBLE
The State Board of Technical Education and Training,
Telangana under the aegis of the Department of Technical Education,
Telangana generally reviews the Curricula to tune up the updated
development both in academic and industry side. However,
recognizing the changing needs as stated by the user industries, the
Board has decided to bring forward the revision of curriculum.
Consequently the Board with the assistance of senior faculty of the
concerned branches has performed the evaluation of C-14
Curriculum in force. On finding the merits and demerits of C-14
Curriculum the faculty have made a thorough assessment of the
curricular changes that have to be brought in. It was felt that there is
an urgent need to improve hands-on experience among the students
pursuing diploma courses. Further, the urgency of enhancing
communication skills in English was also highlighted in the feedback
and suggestions made by the user industries. Keeping these in view,
a number of meetings and deliberations were held at state level, with
experts from industry, academia and senior faculty of the department.
The new Curricula for the different diploma courses have been
designed with the active participation of the members of the faculty
teaching in the Polytechnics of Telangana, besides reviewed by Expert
Committee constituted with eminent academicians.
The primary objective of the curriculum change is to produce
best technicians in the country by correlating growing needs of the
industries with the academic input.
The revised New Curriculum i.e., Curriculum – 2016 or C-16 is
planned and designed duly introducing semester pattern in 1st year
and 6 months industrial training in 3rd year level (5th or 6th semester)
to have good exposure with industries and it will be implemented
from the academic year 2016-17.
Salient Features:
1. Duration of course is 3 years / 3½ years of Regular Academic
Instruction.
2. The entire Curriculum is prepared in Semester Pattern right
from 1st year.

1
3. Six months Industrial Training is placed in VI semester to acquire
the industrial exposure and experience for the students.
4. Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry is common to all
branches in 1st and 2nd semester except Foot Wear, DCCP,
DCT, DHS, DHMCT & DGT branches.
5. Mathematics-III at 3rd semester level is common to all branches
except DCT, DHS, DCCP, DGT and DHMCT.
6. Programming in ‘C’ lab is introduced in 4th Semester in
consideration with the AICTE model curriculum and to meet
NBA requirement.
7. The policy decisions taken at the State and Central level with
regard to environmentalscienceare implemented by including
relevant topics in Chemistry. This is also in accordance with
the Supreme Court guidelines issued in Sri Mehta’s case.
8. Keeping in view of the increased need of communication skills
which is playing a vital role in the success of Diploma Level
students in the Industries, emphasis is given for learning and
acquiring listening, speaking, reading and writing skills in
English. Further as discussed in the Curriculum meetings,
Communication Skills and Life Skills lab is introduced in III
semester for all the branches.
9. Modern topics relevant to the needs of the industry and global
scenario suitable to be taught at Diploma level are also
incorporated in the curriculum.
10. Introduction of CAD/CAM specific to the branch has been given
more emphasis in the curriculum for preparing drawings using
CAD and also preparation of Part programme for CAM software.
11. Every student is exposed to the computer lab at the 1st and 2nd
semester level itself in order to familiarize himself/herself with
the operating systems.
12. The number of teaching hours allotted to a particular topic/
chapter has been rationalized keeping in view the past
experience
13. Upon reviewing the existing C-14 curriculum, more emphasis
is given to the practical content of Laboratories and Workshops,
thus strengthening the practical skills.

2
14. With increased emphasis for the student to acquire Practical
skills, the course content in all the subjects is thoroughly
reviewed and structured as outcome competency based than
the conventional based. While the course content in certain
subjects felt overloaded is reduced, in rest of the subjects the
content has been enhanced as per the need.
15. All Practical subjects are independent of each other and the
practice of grouping two or more practical subjects is dispensed
with.
16. Laboratory and Workshops practicals have been thoroughly
revised based on the suggestions received from the industry
and faculty, for better utilization of the equipment available at
the Polytechnics. The experiments /exercises that are chosen
for the practical sessions are identified to conform to the field
requirements of industry.
17. The Members of the working group are grateful to Smt. A. Vani
Prasad, I.A.S., Commissioner of Technical Education
&Chairperson, S.B.T.E.T. Telangana for her constant guidance
and valuable inputs in revising, modifying and updating the
curriculum.
18. The Members acknowledge thanks for cooperation and
guidance extended by Sri. D. Venkateswarlu, Secretary and
his team of SBTET, Telangana and other officials of Directorate
of Technical Education and the State Board of Technical
Education, Telangana, experts from industry, academia from
the universities and higher learning institutions and all teaching
