The department's philosophy on project-based learning is rooted in the belief that practical experience is essential for developing competent engineers. Our approach emphasizes hands-on experimentation, real-world problem-solving, and collaborative teamwork. Students are encouraged to apply theoretical concepts to actual engineering challenges, fostering innovation and critical thinking.
Mini-Projects Structure
Mini-projects are integrated throughout the curriculum, beginning in the second semester. These projects typically span 4-6 weeks and require students to work in teams of 3-5 members. Each project is assigned a faculty mentor who provides guidance and evaluates performance based on technical execution, teamwork, and presentation skills.
Final Year Thesis/Capstone Project
The final year capstone project is a comprehensive engineering endeavor that spans the entire academic year. Students select their projects in consultation with faculty mentors, ensuring alignment with current industry trends and research opportunities. The project involves extensive literature review, experimental design, data analysis, and technical documentation.
Students are required to present their work at the annual Engineering Symposium, where they receive feedback from industry professionals and academic experts. This exposure enhances communication skills and provides valuable networking opportunities.
