Project-Based Learning Philosophy
The department's philosophy on project-based learning is rooted in the belief that students learn best when they engage actively with complex, real-world problems. Mini-projects are assigned starting from the second year, allowing students to apply classroom concepts in practical settings. These projects emphasize teamwork, critical thinking, and communication skills while fostering innovation.
Mini-projects typically span 4-6 weeks and involve teams of 3-5 students working under faculty supervision. Each project is evaluated based on technical execution, creativity, presentation quality, and peer feedback. Students are encouraged to choose projects aligned with their interests or industry needs, ensuring relevance and motivation.
The final-year thesis/capstone project is a significant culmination of the student's engineering journey. It spans 12-16 weeks and involves independent research or development under the guidance of a faculty mentor. Projects can be theoretical, experimental, or applied, often collaborating with industry partners or academic institutions. The evaluation criteria include originality, technical depth, documentation quality, defense presentation, and impact potential.
Faculty mentors are selected based on expertise, availability, and alignment with student interests. Students can propose project ideas, but they must be reviewed and approved by the mentor and department head. Regular progress reports, milestone reviews, and final presentations ensure accountability and quality outcomes.
