Course Overview
The ‘Vibration and Structural Dynamics’ program is a National Program for Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) online course provided by the Swayam online education portal for the students associated with aerospace engineering and advanced mechanics. This course is developed by the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
The online course is offered for eight weeks for undergraduate-level students. The course instructors for this program are Dr. Mira Mitra, an associate professor from the department of aerospace engineering along with two other teaching assistants. The course provides valuable insights on the technical aspects of solving industrial problems through the four modules in this course.
The ‘Vibration and Structural Dynamics’ training program is approved by the All India Council for Technical Education and enables the students to earn two credit points for this core online course. The candidates of this online program will receive a course completion certificate which consists of the logos of NPTEL and IIT Kharagpur for authentication.
