Industrial Engineering & Management

The Mechanical Measurements and Metrology (MM&M) Lab provides hands-on training in precision measurement, dimensional and angular metrology, calibration, form and surface measurement, machine-tool inspection, and metallurgical characterization. The laboratory develops students’ practical understanding of measurement principles, accuracy, precision, errors and uncertainty, instrument calibration, dimensional inspection, and quality evaluation of engineering components and materials. The laboratory provides facilities for linear and angular measurement, dimensional and form inspection, surface characterization, instrument calibration, machine-tool alignment and performance evaluation, cutting-force measurement, coordinate-based inspection, and microstructural examination. These facilities enable students to apply metrology principles to engineering components and materials and gain practical exposure to precision measurement, manufacturing inspection, quality control, and computer-aided measurement techniques. The laboratory also supports microstructural examination and specimen preparation, thereby extending practical learning from dimensional and geometric inspection to material characterization. Overall, the MM&M Lab integrates precision metrology, manufacturing inspection, machine-tool evaluation, calibration, and material characterization, providing students with practical exposure relevant to modern manufacturing and industrial quality-control practices.

The Department of Industrial Engineering and Management at Ramaiah Institute of Technology has a well-equipped computer laboratory to support teaching, learning, laboratory exercises, and project work. The laboratory provides students with hands-on exposure to industry-relevant software used in industrial engineering, operations management, enterprise resource planning, statistical analysis, accounting, and manufacturing applications. The major software facilities available include Solid Edge for computer-aided design and modelling, Arena for discrete-event simulation and system analysis, SAP-ERP for enterprise resource planning and business process management, SYSTAT for statistical analysis and data processing, and Tally for accounting and financial management applications. The laboratory enables students to apply theoretical concepts through practical exercises, simulation studies, data analysis, ERP-based applications, CAD modelling, and project work. The facilities also support interdisciplinary learning and help students develop industry-oriented computational and analytical skills essential for careers in Industrial Engineering and Management.
