VIT UNIVERSITY VELLORE
School of Mechanical Engineering
BMEE201L
Engineering Mechanics
Faculty: Dr. M.Velu
Cabin:GDN G 09-F (Near Fluid Mechanics Lab)
, Conduct of the Course
• Three hours per week including lectures, discussions, and
tutorials
• There are homework problems, two Continuous
Assessment Tests (CAT), QUIZES and Digital Assignments
and a FAT. There will be a great deal of hands on and
observed problem solving in the class. History has shown
Regular attendance is necessary to be successful in the
class.
Component Marks
CAT - I 15 • Solve lots of
CAT - II 15 problems
Digital Assignments (1 20
