Let me first of all compliment you for considering the Faculty of Engineering Technology of the Open
University of Sri Lanka (OUSL), to pursue your higher studies and fulfil your educational goals and ambitions.
The Faculty of Engineering Technology of the Open University of Sri Lanka is one of the pioneers worldwide in conducting Engineering degree programmes in Open and Distance Learning (ODL).
The Faculty offers academic programmes leading to Certificates, Diplomas, Degrees and Post
Graduate Qualifications in engineering and industry related disciplines. This Guidebook contains information on academic programmes offered by the Faculty.
Further, this guidebook is intended to give you an understanding about the ODL mode of education as practiced by the OUSL. Through the ODL mode of education, we are able to provide opportunities of higher education to a large number of students, including those who are employed. You have the flexibility to choose the place, time and pace at which you will pursue your studies at the OUSL.
However, you should be highly motivated, persistent and determined to work hard to complete your studies.
Contrary to the general belief, ODL mode of study is neither part-time nor totally without any contacts with the tutor. In fact the work-load of a student, who offers the maximum number of allowed courses per academic year, is equivalent to that of the work-load of any conventional university student. At the OUSL we will facilitate your studies by providing you with printed self study lesson materials. In addition to this, your academic activities are supported by on-line classes, tutor marked assignments, day schools, laboratory classes, mini projects, etc. Some of these activities are done in a classroom atmosphere with the presence of a teacher. Activities such as mini-projects, laboratory reports, and tutor marked assignments also contribute towards the assessment of your performance. In addition, continuous assessment tests and final examinations constitute part of the student assessment.
I sincerely hope that you will be able to identify a study programme that is suitable to your prospective career in this guidebook. I hope to welcome you as a student of ours, who is motivated to pursue studies in distant mode. I wish you all the success in all your efforts to acquire a recognised qualification from our Faculty.
Wishing you all the very best!

Established in 1980 under the Universities Act
No. 16 of 1978, the Open University of Sri
Lanka (OUSL) is the only recognised university in Sri Lanka where students may pursue further education by distance education techniques in keeping with the philosophy of
Open and Distance Learning. With the OUSL
Ordinance No. 1 of 1990, as amended, the
OUSL has the same legal and academic status as any other national university in Sri Lanka.
As per the Public Administration Circular No.
16/92, dated 13/03/1992, issued by the
Ministry of Public administration, Provincial
Councils and Home affairs, the degrees awarded by the OUSL are treated as equivalent to degrees awarded by other universities under the purview of the University Grant
Commission (UGC). Owing to the nature of its teaching techniques and the massive infrastructure, the University has over 35,000 students with extremely varied profiles, spread throughout the island. About 70% of these students are employed.
The OUSL offers its own programmes of study leading to Certificates, Advanced Certificates,
Diplomas, Degrees and Postgraduate Diplomas and Postgraduate Degrees. In addition to these main academic programmes, there are continuing education courses, beginner‟s courses and awareness programmes. The OUSL is also fully equipped to support postgraduate research studies leading to Master of
Philosophy (MPhil) and Doctor of Philosophy
(PhD) degrees.
The OUSL provides a readily accessible and progressive ladder of opportunities for study, to improve the vocational, professional and earning potential of an individual. The educational programmes have been designed to meet national, educational and training needs, and to offer opportunities to those who have the dedication and drive to succeed. With its flexibility, the OUSL provides a more socially equitable higher education system.
Any person who is above 18 years of age can enrol at the OUSL.
The Faculty of Engineering Technology is one of the four academic faculties of the OUSL. The other three faculties are the Faculty of Natural
Sciences, the Faculty of Humanities and Social
Sciences, and the Faculty of Education.
The administrative and academic head of the
Faculty is the Dean. The Faculty of Engineering
Technology consists of the following six
Academic Departments:
 Agricultural and Plantation Engineering
 Civil Engineering
 Electrical and Computer Engineering
 Mathematics and Philosophy of
Engineering
 Mechanical Engineering
 Textile and Apparel Technology
Each department functions under a Head. All departments are collectively responsible for all academic activities of the Faculty.
The Faculty Board of the Faculty of Engineering
Technology regulates all academic activities in the Faculty, under the direction of the Senate of the OUSL.
The Faculty also has a multi-disciplinary
Engineering Research Unit (ERU) dedicated to enhance research in the Faculty and to provide a forum for discussion of matters pertaining to
Engineering research.
This Student Guidebook describes various academic programmes conducted by the
Faculty of Engineering Technology and relevant information pertaining to these programmes.
- 1 -

The study system adopted by the Open
University of Sri Lanka is based on multimedia instructional materials with strong emphasis on
Distance Education techniques using printed material, on-line learning facilities and audiovisual aids. The Faculty of Engineering
Technology is one of the pioneers, among all academic institutions in the world, in the delivery of engineering programmes in distance education mode.
The central component of Distant Education is the printed material that offers the student the equivalent to lectures in a conventional university. They also provide a series of carefully designed activities and self-assessment questions, which help the student to develop analytical skills and independent thought.
Printed material is supplemented by audiovisual material, on-line classes, face to face discussions/clarification classes (Day-Schools), tutor clinics, laboratory work, fieldwork, and seminars. Laboratory work and field work form an integral part of most courses in technology and are compulsory. Pre-scheduled Day-Schools and Tutor Clinics are conducted by the academics for groups of students at Regional and
Study Centres of the University.
As most of the programmes are offered in
English medium, an applicable level of fluency in English is expected from our students.
Therefore a special English course is offered for students to follow during their 1 st year.
The OUSL is meant primarily for working students. Therefore, it is possible for a student to study while working, without much difficulty.
Those students who have passed GCE (A/L) may join the Diploma/Degree programmes directly.
While the University is making every effort to schedule as many activities as possible during weekends and public holidays, certain activities such as laboratory classes and examinations may have to be scheduled during weekdays. Since the activity schedule for the whole year is given to the students at the beginning of the academic year, it is hoped that they can plan their work well in advance.
A student joins the OUSL for a particular programme by fulfilling Entry requirements and registering for at least nine credits of courses in the programme of study in his/her first year of registration. To register for a particular course,
- 2 - the student should have fulfilled the given
Prerequisites for that course. Students are allowed to change their selection of courses after going through the study material, during the subsequent Add/Drop Period (usually one month after the last date for registration ) , without any penalty. From the last date of
Add/Drop period, for a further one month students can withdraw from the courses which they are unable to handle. In this event, the first instalment of fees already charged will be forfeited.
Each course in a programme of study is assessed separately. Assessment consists of two components, namely Continuous Assessment
(CA) and Final Examination (FE).
Continuous assessment is not merely a means of assessment; it is one of the significant means of facilitating learning. Activities such as laboratory work, field classes, tutor marked assignments (TMAs), presentations, mini projects (MP) and continuous assessment tests (CATs) are integral parts of learning and assessment.
A student is required to obtain a minimum of
40% in continuous assessment of a particular course, to be eligible to sit for the final examination. If this minimum mark is not obtained, the student is considered to have failed in that course and has to re-register in a subsequent year. In this event, the student can obtain only a simple pass (C grade) for the course after successful completion.
A student gaining eligibility in a particular course is expected to sit the final examination in the same year. However, facing the final examination may be postponed to a subsequent year, within the valid period of eligibility of up to a maximum of 3 academic years including the year the student obtained the eligibility.
Final assessment mark of any course depends on the performance at both the continuous assessment and the final examination. For the courses offered by the Faculty, these components carry equal weight. Therefore, students must practise continuous learning throughout the academic year, in order to attain success.
Since a fair proportion of the activities used to impart knowledge in distance education have to be carried out by the student, success is possible only if he/she is motivated to learn by him/her- self.

The curriculum of the Faculty of Engineering
Technology ensures that the students receive an academically as well as professionally recognised qualification in a particular field.
However, it still allows a student to structure the subject combinations and total duration of study to suit individual needs. To gain a qualification with a particular specialisation, specific course combination stipulated for that specialisation needs to be fulfilled.
The fundamental entity in the dissemination process of knowledge is known as a “course” In other words, a course is equivalent to a subject.
Each course is classified into one distinct
"Course Category" denoted by a specific letter.
Engineering
Engineering projects
X
Y
Mathematics
Industrial
General
Computer literacy
English
Management
Z

J
K
L or E
M
Each course is also assigned a " Level ", between one (1) and seven (7). The Level indicates the relative complexity of the course content.
Levels 1 & 2 comprise the foundation for different programmes. Levels 3 to 6 are different stages in undergraduate study programmes leading to Advanced Certificate,
Diploma & Degree qualifications. Finally, the courses of postgraduate programmes are placed at Level 7 .
The Credit Rating assigned for a course reflects the amount of time an average student is expected to devote for its study.
Total effective time expected to be spent by an average student for a course with a Credit
Rating of one (1) is about 25 hours. The credit rating of a course can be computed by multiplying the fifth character in the Course
Code for that course by three (3).
Ex: for the course MPZ3 2 31 credit rating is 6
(=2×3), which means the student is expected to spend about 150 (= 6×25) hours of learning during the academic year
The maximum number of credits a student can offer for an academic year is limited to thirty six
(36) from Regular Courses (X, Z, and I categories) and eighteen (18) from Continuing
Education Courses (Y, J, K, E and M categories). However, the total number of credits that can be taken per academic year, from both the Regular and Continuing
Education courses together, is limited to a maximum of forty five (45) credits.
Thus, an average student opting to offer the maximum allowable credits (45) in an academic year would be expected to spend about 1125 effective hours for studies during the academic year (i.e. about 38 hours per week assuming 30 weeks of study in an academic year).
In order to register for the courses offered by the Faculty of Engineering Technology, students need to fulfil English language requirements as given below.

Study Programmes are made up of different course combinations. For the award of a qualification through a programme such as a
Certificate, Diploma or a Degree, three major considerations need to be fulfilled: i) A total stipulated number of Course
Credits and training modules required for an award should be acquired, while fulfilling the minimum requirements at different Levels . ii) Minimum stipulated number of Category
Credits required for an award should be fulfilled by the student under each Course
Category at identified Levels . iii) In order for the student to qualify in a
Particular Field of Study , (e.g. Civil,
Mechanical, Electrical, etc.), the list of
Compulsory Courses and relevant training modules required for an award in that field of study should also be satisfied.
Students who have performed extremely well in degree programmes are rewarded with gold medals. The gold medals awarded by the faculty are:
1.
Kulshreshtha gold medal for the best student in Bachelor of Technology
(Engineering) programme.
2.
Thurairajah gold medal for the best final year project in Bachelor of Technology
(Engineering) programme.
3.
ERU gold medal for the Best paper published in ERU journal
4.
Mrs. S.M. Abeygunesekera de Silva gold medal for the best student in Mechatronics
Engineering stream.
5.
Liyanaguruge Assie Annette de Silva gold medal for the Best Student in Bachelor of
Industrial Studies (Agriculture) programme.
Students who have academic qualifications other than entry requirements (ex: NDT, B.Sc) may be granted exemptions according to their qualifications. Faculty approved exemptions are given in pages 40-46 and 57-59. If you possess any qualification other than these you can seek exemptions by sending duly filled application form given in page 79 of this
Student Guidebook on or before specified date.
Any exemptions granted will be informed at the time of registration.
In certain instances when the students possess qualifications for which the Faculty cannot grant any exemption from an existing course, credit exemptions may be granted using virtual courses with appropriate category, level and credit rating.
Practical skills are an essential part of
Engineering Education, and are given due place our programmes. Students who are following
Diploma and Degree programme should complete relevant training modules as given in the Course Information Section.
The students undergo Workshop practice module in the University (Colombo, Kandy,
Matara, Batticaloa regional centres) and for the
Industrial training they are placed in different reputed public and private organisations. In the case of Industrial Studies programme students need not follow the Workshop practice module.
Those who are working in industries relating to the particular field may seek exemptions for
Industrial training. Further details are available with the Training Engineer who looks after the matters related to the industrial training by contacting through Tel. 0112881223.

Students have access to the main library of the
University at Nawala and to the five regional libraries at Anuradhapura, Kandy, Matara,
Batticaloa and Jaffna Regional Centres. Lending facility to students is available at Nawala main library, Kandy, Matara and Anuradhapura libraries and is limited to two books at a time, and requires a deposit. The main library is well resourced and open throughout the year except on the seven "University Holidays" and a few days during the Sinhala and Tamil New Year and Christmas.
- 6 -
The main library has an Audio-Visual Resource
Centre (AVRC) with a substantial collection of video and audio material in many subject areas for the use of students. Access to internet, WIFI coverage and photocopying facilities are also available.
The regional and study centres have a small collection of books, and audio-visual material, mainly for reference.

Computer facilities are available at a number of
Regional and Study centres. These are at
Ambalangoda, Anuradhapura, Bandarawela,
Batticaloa, Colombo, Galle, Kandy, Kegalle,
Kurunegala, Matara, Polonnaruwa and
Ratnapura. Limited Internet facilities are available at Colombo, Kandy, Matara,
Anuradhapura and Batticaloa Regional Centres and certain study centres.
National Online Distance Education Service
(NODES) is a unit under Ministry of Higher
Education. The NODES has 26 NODES Access
Centres called NACs. The main purpose of the
NACs is to provide access to all students registered for online programmes offered by all partner institutions of NODES.
As OUSL is one of the partners of NODES the students of the faculty have opportunity to access online material through NACs free of charge. Besides, these centres have other facilities, such as video conferencing, (internet, e-mail), photocopying, fax, scanning and printing at a fee. NODES encourages the use of these centres for accessing online material and other activities related to open and distance learning.
Twenty out of 26 NACs have been set up within the OUSL Regional and Study Centres covering many districts of the country. Other six centres are located, in the premises of
University of Colombo (Weligaththa and
Colombo), University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka
Institute of Advanced Technological Studies
(Badulla and Bandarawela) and Institute of
Engineering Technology (Katunayake).
Laboratory facilities for most courses are available only at the Colombo Regional Centre at Nawala. However, laboratory work in the courses up to level 3 and a few higher level courses may be conducted at the Regional
Centres and selected Study Centres, if the number of students registered for a particular course for that centre is more than 15.
Food can be purchased from the University canteens at reasonable prices. Canteens are available at Colombo, Kandy and Matara
Regional Centres. These provide services throughout the week.
The University provides temporary residential facilities at Colombo, Kandy and Matara
Regional Centres for a limited number of students attending approved academic activities.
The Faculty Student Union is elected by and from amongst the students of the Faculty. The
University Student Union is constituted by the four Faculty Student Unions. Moreover, two representatives are elected by the students of the Faculty to the Board of the Faculty of
Engineering Technology.
An ATM of the People's Bank is situated within the premises of the Colombo Regional Centre.
Facility to make payments using Visa/Master cards is available at Colombo Regional Centre.
Students can purchase stationery and consumable items, at reasonable prices, from the WUS shops, which are located in the
Colombo and Kandy Regional Centres.
The OUSL publishes bi-annually, bulletin for distribution among all its registered students. It carries articles, general news about the OUSL activities, and other information useful for staff and students.

If you are looking for an opportunity to learn about something that interests you, an opportunity that you never really had, the
OUSL may be the place for you.
We would do our best to facilitate your learning, but the hard work is up to you. If you are to make use of this opportunity, you need to be prepared to make some sacrifices.
You have to be self-motivated, and be prepared to sacrifice part of your leisure, at least for a few years. If you are motivated to make the best of what is offered, we will attempt to provide you with the means of achieving the highest academic and professional goals, irrespective of your present status.
Our programmes of study allow you to build on your present achievements, and advance in your career systematically, as you progress in your learning.
It would be a mistake on your part if you expect the OUSL to enable you to gain a qualification without putting in a substantial amount of hard work.
In the case of some activities, such as laboratory classes, you may also have a choice in the selection of dates and times.
Unfortunately, this is not possible in the case of tests, presentations and examinations, as these activities involve other students as well.
Working students may find it difficult to obtain leave of absence from work to attend to some of the compulsory activities that make up a particular course. However, as the calendar giving the attendance requirements is usually announced well in advance, it is possible to select the courses to minimise these problems. You should pay particular attention to this, at the time you register for courses at the beginning of each academic year.
The OUSL expects its students to interact closely with the world of work. The fact that the University was primarily established to address the needs of working students cannot be over emphasised. As such, we do make an extra effort to accommodate the particular situation of such students. However, the students too should plan their programme, taking note of the fact that there cannot be any flexibility in arranging certain activities.
Therefore, when selecting the courses to be offered in a particular year, you are advised to consider your commitment in terms of time and money.
For example, a student registering for thirty six (36) credits of regular courses per year will need to devote about nine hundred (900) hours of his/her free time for self-study during the academic year. This is about 30 hours a week for 30 weeks (i.e. about 5 hours per day). Those who are unable to find the required time should register for lesser number of credits.
Similarly, as the tuition fee is computed based on the number of credits offered, you can plan your selection based on the amount of money you could afford for that particular year. Thus you may follow a programme of study at your own pace depending on time and money available.

Unlike the other national universities in Sri
Lanka, the OUSL does charge fees from its students. This is related to the fact that the
OUSL was set up primarily to cater to the needs of employed students. As these students would naturally be earning at least a modest income, it was felt that the decision to levy fees is justified.
However, there is no intention of recovering the full cost of education from the students. As of today, the income from fees meets only a fraction of the total expenditure of the
University. The Government, by grants disbursed through the University Grants
Commission, meets the major component of the total expenditure.
The fees payable by a registered student includes, registration fee, facilities fee, exemption fee (where applicable), library facility fee and tuition fee.
The Registration fee (of Rs. 400/= for certificate, diploma and undergraduate programmes; Rs. 1000/= for postgraduate programmes) is charged to cover the administrative expenditure involved in student registration.
The Facilities fee (of Rs. 1500/=) is used to provide certain facilities for the students and is a fixed amount payable by all registered students irrespective of the number of courses offered. The Library Facility fee (of Rs. 100/= for certificate, diploma and undergraduate programmes; Rs. 200/= for postgraduate programmes) is charged at the time of first registration.
The Exemption fee (of Rs. 25/= per credit) is only charged when exemptions are granted.
The Tuition fee depends on the credit rating and the Level of the course offered. The tuition fees applicable for different levels are as given in the following table.

Research keeps a person motivated, at the forefront of the respective professional or academic career while contributing to solve problems scientifically for the benefit of the society.
Supervised research leading to a higher degree is really only the beginning of a research career. Basically, it provides training in research methodology and research techniques.
The Faculty provides opportunities for science and technology based research in most of the
Engineering disciplines. All research students are initially required to register for a MPhil degree. Suitable students could however transfer to a PhD degree after about a year of work, on the recommendation of their supervisor(s).
Students are normally expected to possess an
Honours Degree or an equivalent qualification to read for a research degree.
However, in exceptional circumstances, other suitably qualified candidates may also be considered for admission.
Students who register for Master/Doctor of
Philosophy degrees are required to submit a thesis within 2-7 years. It is expected that the work should reflect the student‟s research capability and that it should make a significant contribution to knowledge in the area of study.
If you feel that you are competent and motivated to pursue higher studies for a research degree, you should contact a senior academic staff member of the relevant academic department in which you wish to carry out your research.
