Abstract
In our country, everyone visualizes “Smart” manufacturing and “Regular” manufacturing which belong to different domains. ‘Smart’ means related to IT domain, not linked with other domains. It is a wrong perception viewed by many of them. The concept ‘Smart’ is generic. It relates with multidimensional aspects. Before entering into systems design for Smart manufacturing as a curriculum to our Indian students, we must understand the objectives and roles of current trends in manufacturing first. Next, evolutionary systems design of this curriculum will bring social benefits on imparting smart manufacturing to our students. This curriculum brings into a large attention from academics and practitioners of how to best design implement and manage “novelty in manufacturing”. This education research evaluates ‘General system theory’ by K.E. Boulding.
