Project-Based Learning Philosophy
The department emphasizes project-based learning as a core component of the curriculum. Students begin with mini-projects in their second year, progressing to more complex capstone initiatives in their final year.
Mini-projects are typically completed over a period of 4-6 weeks and involve small teams working on specific engineering challenges. These projects encourage experimentation, problem-solving, and teamwork while reinforcing theoretical concepts learned in class.
The final-year thesis or capstone project is a significant undertaking that spans several months. Students select topics aligned with their interests and career goals, often in collaboration with faculty mentors or industry partners. The project involves literature review, design, implementation, testing, and documentation phases.
Evaluation criteria include technical depth, innovation, presentation quality, peer feedback, and final deliverables. Faculty members guide students throughout the process, ensuring that projects meet academic standards while fostering creativity and independence.
