The valuation of the thesis credits should be allotted but for the calculation of CGPA these credits will not be taken into consideration.
Candidates can do their work in the department or in any industry/research organization for two semesters (ie 3rd and 4th semesters). In case of thesis work to be
done in an industry/research organization, the advisor/advisors should be from the industry/research organization.
It is mandatory that two seminars at least one per semester related to thesis work in III and IV semesters and publication of a paper in conference
proceeding/communicated to Journal for the submission of the Thesis at the end of 4th Semester.
At the end of 4th semester, four bound copies of the thesis are to be submitted to the department, out of which 2 to be retained by the department for evaluation
purpose. The thesis is to be evaluated by an examiner external to the University with minimum M.E./M.Tech qualification with relevant specialization and must have
minimum 5 years of experience in service.
A Viva-voce examination is to be conducted by a Committee consisting of Head of the department of respective college, Chairman, Board of Studies, the External
Examiner who evaluates the thesis and the Advisor of the thesis, after receiving the evaluation report from the External Examiner.
In case the advisor happens to be HOD or Chairman, Board of Studies or from industry/research organization one more member from the department with relevant
specialization is to be recommended as examiner by Chairman, Board of Studies for Viva-voce examination.
The Board will submit a report stating whether the thesis is approved or not approved with marks out of 100.
