The objective of the project work is to make use of the knowledge gained by the student at various stages of the degree course. Students, will also be permitted to undertake industrial/consultancy project Work, outside the department, in industries/Research labs. There shall be three assessments during the semester by a review committee. The student shall make three presentations on the progress made before the committee at various stages of the Project work. The Head of the Department shall constitute the review committee for each branch of study. The total marks obtained in the three reviews, shall be taken in to account. There will be a viva-voce examination at the end of the Project work, conducted by one internal examiner and one external examiner. The total marks secured will be the sum of marks secured in the Project reviews and Viva Voce Examination. Each student is required to submit a Project report on the project assigned to him by the department. The report should be based on the information available in the literature or data obtained by the student by way of experiments conducted in the laboratory/industry.
