GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE SP STREAM (ENGINEERING) APPLICATION


KVPY is a program to recognize and reward creative and innovative talent of youngsters in India. The project
that you present as part of this application should preferably be based on novel and unconventional ideas. Your
project should demonstrate the practical execution of your ideas. The project must show that you are creative and
adventurous and ready to explore.
The project in this KVPY application must involve a substantial practical or experiment component. If the project
is software oriented, good theoretical component would also be looked for, in addition to a high level of
sophistication in implementation. Applicants are strongly urged to come up with original project.
Improvement of an existing product or a technique may be accepted provided such improvement involves
original ideas and creativity. You may try to incorporate some addition to the design or practical implementation
that improves an existing technique.

APPLICATION FORM FOR STUDENT OF ENGINEERING: STREAM SP(ENGINEERING)

Applications of the following type are discouraged:

Project in which there has been detailed guidance by experts


Project that are merely a literature survey
Mere copy of a product or a method available in a book, magazine, Journal or Internet
Heavy use of sophisticated facilities without a very substantial component of originality
Project that is just a write-up describing what one wants to do but has not tried to do it
practically. (Failures are accepted provided an attempt was made to implement the idea
practically).
The main criteria that would be followed for selection for the interview (in December January of every
year) would be originality and innovation. Only after these are met, the level of sophistication, and the
nature of the project (greater weightage for interdisciplinary project) would be taken into consideration.
Note: Fill in all the items in this form. The project report for Item 2 in Section B should be attached
as separate sheets. You may use an additional sheet for Item 3 in Section B if necessary.
Section A: Pertains to your background. Give your name as it appears in your school and college
records. In Item 9(c) and 10(b), give the marks of Science subjects only. Make sure that it is attested by
your supervisor with the official stamp giving his/her designation.
Section B: The main part of your KVPY application is a practical science/engineering project done by
you on your own. This project must be certified to be Original and complete as claimed by the
applicant by a college/university teacher (not necessarily from your institution).
Certification:
The supervisor of the project shall authenticate the completion of the project. It is recommended that
he/she does not suggest the topic or give detailed guidance.
A few examples are given below for illustration:

Changes that will significantly improve the performance of a circuit. Describe the concept
theory being the change theoretically and practical implementation and test results that prove
your idea.
Novel method for detoxification of a particular industrial effluent. Outline the theoretical
basis and describe the tests and experimental results.
A novel algorithm that is very simple to implement and performs as well as complex method
currently in use. Describe the algorithm, how it was programmed and tested. Include
outputs.

Section B
1. Detailed report of a project done for the KVPY application is to be attached separately.

Specific Instructions for the report:


The report should be about 5 pages long. A short precise report will receive better attention than a
long convoluted one. The report of your project should contain the following parts:
a) Background: What are the uses or applications of your project? What are the related
instruments/solutions that are used for similar applications?
b) Design Outline: Design equations, circuit diagrams, experiment design,
algorithm/structure, etc. Basic equations and textbook material should be clearly
distinguished from your own ideas.
c) Innovative component in the design: Mention what is your own contribution to the
project design and how it is different from (and better than) commonly used methods.
d) Test results: How was your project tested? It is important to summarise your results and
not simply list all your measurements.
If your project is algorithmic (theory) you must justify it. If your project is algorithm and
implementation you must justify the algorithm and give evidence that the implementation is
complete through results.
If your Project is theoretical, your proofs must be completed and application (including that of
development of theoretical results) must be declined.
2. Give a summary of the project. Carefully follow the given format. Write clearly and do not
exceed the given space. Please read the instructions for the project report before you write the
summary.
a) Title : ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------b) Goal or aim of the project :

c) Source of the idea :


d) Your addition or innovation :

e) What is the significance of your contribution? (e.g. simpler design than conventional, more
efficient, cheaper, etc.)

f) Results obtained in your project. [Show strong evidence that your project is indeed
complete. Direct attention, if it is experimental, to detailed readings in your report.
Wherever possible, provide relevant photographs. If it is theoretical, state your main results
(which should have been proved clearly in your report)]

3. Have you undertaken any project (other than the project for the present KVPY application)
or research activity independently in the last 3 years? If so, mention a descriptive title, the year
(and the class you were in) and if it was entered in any school science exhibition or equivalent.
