The objective of URE004 is to bring out the innovative capability of student,

independent of his/ her specialization, and give credit to their ideas and quality and
quantum of work carried out at the University. It will be of “open project” concept
with 3 credits weightage and can be carried out any time within the programme
URE004 Mars Rover period. To get credit to their work, such students may apply to the ‘URE004
Evaluation Committee’ (similar to that of URE001) under the Director of programme
School which will evaluate the project outcomes and if found to have made
significant contribution, then, recommend URE004 award to the student(s). The
URE004 shall carry 3 credits with a performance grade as recommended by the
URE004 Evaluation Committee. After earning the credits, the student(s) registers for
URE004 in the next semester. URE004 shall be considered in lieu of a University
Elective course and the credits are counted towards minimum credit requirements.
URE004 will be shown in the Grade Sheet and Consolidated Grade Sheet with a short
title of the work carried out.
