Project-Based Learning Framework
The program places significant emphasis on project-based learning as a core component of student development. This approach ensures that students can apply theoretical knowledge in practical contexts while building essential skills such as critical thinking, teamwork, and innovation.
The mandatory mini-projects begin in the second year and are designed to reinforce course concepts through hands-on application. Students work in teams under faculty supervision to solve real-world educational challenges. Projects typically span 6–8 weeks and are evaluated based on research quality, presentation skills, and impact analysis.
The final-year capstone project is an extended initiative that integrates all learning outcomes from the program. Students select a topic relevant to current educational trends or policy issues, conduct in-depth research, and develop a practical solution or intervention. The thesis component requires students to write a comprehensive report and present findings to faculty and industry experts.
Faculty mentors are assigned based on student interests and project relevance. The selection process involves a proposal submission followed by an interview with the mentor and advisory committee. This ensures that projects are well-aligned with academic rigor and real-world applicability.
