B.Voc (Degree) in Tool and Die Making
Program Overview
The B.Voc Tool and Die Making programme at Kalinga University is a three-year vocational degree designed for students interested in precision engineering, tool manufacturing, machining, and industrial production. Tool and die making is an important part of modern manufacturing because precision tools, dies, molds, jigs, and fixtures are used to produce accurate and consistent components at scale. With industries increasingly adopting CNC machining, automation, and CAD/CAM technologies, professionals with practical knowledge of precision manufacturing can contribute to efficient and high-quality production processes. The programme provides students with foundational knowledge of tooling, machining, engineering materials, technical drawings, and manufacturing practices.
Across six semesters, students can develop skills related to the design, manufacture, inspection, maintenance, and troubleshooting of tools and dies. The programme introduces learners to different types of dies, molds, jigs, fixtures, gauges, and cutting tools used in industries such as automotive, electronics, aerospace, plastics, and metal forming. Practical learning can include CNC programming, CAD/CAM operations, machining processes, tool-room practices, material selection, dimensional measurement, and quality inspection. Students can also learn how to interpret engineering drawings and understand manufacturing tolerances, helping them produce components according to specified dimensions and quality requirements.
The vocational orientation of the programme helps students prepare for opportunities in precision manufacturing, engineering production, tooling, and industrial maintenance. Graduates can explore roles such as Tool and Die Maker, CNC Machine Operator, CAD/CAM Designer, Mold and Die Maintenance Technician, and Quality Inspector in tooling. The programme can also help develop workplace skills including technical problem-solving, precision, safety awareness, quality control, and equipment handling. Candidates who have completed 10+2 or an equivalent qualification in any stream can apply, while the stated eligibility also includes specified ITI and Polytechnic diploma routes.
Eligibility Criteria
The minimum eligibility to take admission in B.Voc is 10+2 (in any stream) or equivalent or 2 year ITI Diploma after Class 10th or 3 Year Polytechnic Diploma after Class 10th.
