Project-Based Learning Approach
The department emphasizes project-based learning as a cornerstone of the curriculum. Students begin with small-scale mini-projects in their second year to build foundational skills. These projects involve solving real-world problems using engineering principles, often in teams or individual capacities. Mini-projects typically span two to three months and are evaluated based on technical execution, innovation, documentation, and presentation quality.
By the final year, students undertake a comprehensive capstone project that serves as their culminating academic experience. The project involves selecting a topic relevant to current industry trends or societal needs, developing a solution through research and experimentation, and presenting findings to a panel of faculty members and industry experts. Faculty mentors guide students throughout this process, helping them refine ideas, overcome technical challenges, and ensure alignment with academic standards.
The structure of the capstone project includes proposal writing, literature review, design phase, prototyping, testing, analysis, and final report preparation. Evaluation criteria include creativity, feasibility, impact, teamwork, and adherence to ethical guidelines. Students are encouraged to present their work at national and international conferences or competitions, further enhancing their professional development.
