Project-Based Learning Philosophy
The department strongly advocates for a project-based learning approach that integrates theory with practice. Students engage in mini-projects throughout their academic journey, starting from the second year. These projects are designed to encourage collaborative problem-solving, critical thinking, and innovation.
Mini-projects typically last 2-4 weeks and are assessed based on creativity, feasibility, impact, and presentation quality. Students work in teams of 3-5 members, guided by faculty mentors who provide feedback and support throughout the process.
The final-year capstone project is a significant component of the program, requiring students to develop an original research proposal or practical solution to a real-world educational challenge. The project must involve substantial research, data collection, analysis, and presentation skills.
Faculty mentors are selected based on their expertise in relevant fields, ensuring that students receive guidance aligned with their interests and career goals. Students can choose from a range of topics proposed by faculty or propose their own ideas after consultation with advisors.
