Student Handbook-Ad - Dip Stage 1

Introduction
The Institution of Engineers, Sri Lanka (IESL) which is the premier professional
body for engineers in Sri Lanka has gained reputation for its excellence in
providing engineering education in the country. Its part-time engineering course
which is recognized as an equivalent to engineering degrees offered by state
universities in the country fulfills the academic qualifications required to
become a fully-fledged engineer. The qualification is well recognized to gain
employment as a qualified engineer, both in the state and the private sector.
Thus the IESL Engineering Course has become a top choice for those students
who wish to pursue engineering as a professional career but deprived of gaining
entry to state universities due to various reasons.
The course consists of three levels, Certificate, Advanced Diploma and the
Graduate Diploma. It is specially designed to facilitate lateral entry at the start
of levels 1 and 2 and multiple exits, at the end of each level. The curriculum has
also been revised recently to improve its quality, relevance and effectiveness
and also to promote outcome-based education, gearing the students to be
successful in a dynamic and challenging work environment.
The students have the choice of selecting several fields of specialization from
civil, electrical, mechanical and electronic, communication and computer
engineering. A major advantage in following the course is the students who
satisfactorily complete the course are eligible to become Associate Members of
the IESL, a professional qualification well recognized by the state and the
private sector alike, paving their way to a successful career as an Engineer.
IESL College of Engineering (Pvt.) Ltd:
In 2011, The IESL College of Engineering (pvt) Ltd., a company fully-owned by
the IESL, was established with the intention of conducting the Engineering
Course in a more efficient and effective manner. The IESL College of Engineering
(IESLCE) is committed to provide the students high quality education in major
fields of engineering while fostering innovation and creativity among them. It is
determined to become the best choice for tertiary education in engineering for
those who miss the opportunity of entering state universities and thereby
1
becoming a key institute producing quality engineers for the state and private
sector.
COURSE STRUCTURE:
Certificate level
Engineering Certificate Stage 1 One Year
Engineering Certificate Stage 2 One Year
On successful completion of the Certificate level Stages 1 and 2, students are
eligible to receive IESL Engineering Certificate.
Advanced Diploma Level

Advanced Diploma Stage 1 One Year
Advanced Diploma Stage 2 One Year
on successful completion of the Advanced Diploma Stages 1 and 2, students are
eligible to receive IESL Engineering Advanced Diploma.
Graduate Diploma Level

Graduate Diploma One year
On successful completion of the Graduate Diploma students will be awarded the
IESL Engineering Graduate Diploma and also be eligible to obtain the Associate
Membership of the IESL.
The course is designed to provide a good balance between theoretical
knowledge and practical skills. The theory classes of the course are conducted
at the IESL headquarters in Colombo, during the weekends, to allow students
who are already employed, to follow the classes at ease. The practical sessions
are conducted at the University of Moratuwa and the Open University of Sri
Lanka. The medium of instruction is English.
PANEL OF LECTURERS:
The highly qualified and dedicated academic staff consists of part time lecturers
from the Engineering Faculties of the state universities and the industry who
make every effort to create a stimulating academic environment to promote and
enhance innovation among students.

Notes:
Machine element should be considered from the point different modes of
failures with static and dynamic loading conditions wherever appropriate.

Wherever possible selection of material and standard components from
catalogues and manuals should be encouraged along with the analytical
designs.
Use of computer should be made to appreciate by the students wherever
possible.
Assessment:
Design projects are assigned in conjunction with the regular homework

assignments. Student should work six take home assignments with each
assignment carrying 20 marks and the marks of best five assignments will
be considered for the final mark (5 x 20) totaling to a score of X. X>=40%

Final Examination is with a Question paper of four hour (04 hour) duration.
69
The paper has two parts, Part A with one hour duration and Part B with
three hour duration. Student should answer four (04) out of five (05)
questions in Part A, each carrying 25 marks (a total of 4 x 25=100) and the
question in Part B carrying 100 marks with a total score of Y.

Y = 0.4 x marks of Part A + 0.6 x marks of Part B.
Final mark, Z=0.3X + 0.7Y, and Z>=40% for a pass.
(Both Design project and question papers are compulsory components)
