Students should execute the project work using the facilities of the institute. However, external
projects can be taken up in reputed industries, if that work solves a technical problem of the
external firm. Prior sanction should be obtained from the head of department before taking up
external project work and there must be an internal guide for such projects.

th
Each project group should complete the project work in the 8 semester. Each student is
expected to prepare a report and a technical paper in the prescribed format, based on the project
work. The paper may be prepared as per IEEE standard and can have a maximum of six pages.
The project work is evaluated based on oral presentation, technical paper and the project
report jointly by external and internal examiners constituted by the Controller of Examinations

Internal Continuous Assessment
40% - Literature Survey, Design and development/Simulation and analysis
30% - Presentation & demonstration of results
20% - Report
10% - Regularity in the class

OUTCOMES:
On completion of the course students will be able to
in a position to take up any challenging practical problems and find solution by formulating
proper methodology.
