Project-Based Learning Philosophy

The department's approach to project-based learning is centered on fostering innovation, collaboration, and real-world problem-solving skills. Students begin working on mini-projects from their second year, progressing to more complex capstone projects in their final year.

Mini-projects are typically completed in groups of 3-5 students and last for 2-4 weeks. These projects allow students to apply theoretical concepts learned in class to practical scenarios, such as developing a simple web application or analyzing data using statistical methods.

The capstone project, undertaken during the seventh and eighth semesters, is a significant component of the program. Students select a topic related to their area of interest, work closely with a faculty mentor, and produce a substantial deliverable that may include a research paper, prototype, or software system. The final project is presented publicly at the end-of-year symposium.

Faculty mentors play a crucial role in guiding students through each phase of the project lifecycle. They provide feedback on technical feasibility, help refine research questions, and ensure that projects meet academic standards and industry expectations. Additionally, industry partners often contribute to project supervision, offering insights into real-world challenges and career relevance.
