The intention of Project work is to conceive an idea and to implement it systematically by using
knowledge derived during the course of education mainly to innovate or facilitate. A group of Under Graduate
students at Final Year will undertake project work. Work involves study of feasibility of the project, planning
of project, studying existing systems, tools available to implement the project and state of art software testing
procedures and technology with use of case tools, design is to be implemented into a working model (software
or hardware or both) with necessary software interface as an executable package.

Projects may be in-house research, sponsored or multidisciplinary. Projects can be carried out
inside or outside the institute, in any relevant industry/organization or research institution or
labs/organization. The project sponsorship can be of following three categories:

• Self-sponsored project: The expenses incurred towards the completion of the project work will be
borne by the students.
• Industry / Research institutes sponsored project: The expenses incurred towards the completion of the
project work will be supported by the sponsoring industry or research institute. Students shall submit

guide name, problem definition, work to be carried out, sponsorship details etc.
• Institute sponsored project: The expenses incurred towards the completion of the project work will be
supported by any of the institutes or organizations. Students shall submit the sponsorship letter or
relevant document mentioning the sponsorship in monetary support from the institutes or
organizations. A special review will be carried out in the department for selecting the project group
eligible for college sponsorship.

Interdisciplinary B. Tech. Project Guidelines

Introduction:

This document provides guidelines to the B. Tech. students in carrying out their Final Year project
work in an interdisciplinary domain of their interests across departments. The B. Tech. Project (BTP) can
be carried out by students from different departments coming together. The BTP is a partial requirement of
the award of the degree of Bachelor of Technology (B. Tech.) in respective Engineering departments. The
guidelines mentioned herewith ensure the effective execution and the uniformity in the conduction and
representation of the project work in all departments. A BTP can be started in the seventh or eighth semester.
However, in case of academic gap due to semester leave, the student will be allowed to continue the BTP
with the consent of the project guide and the project coordinators.

The BTP is broadly classified as experimental, numerical simulation or product development. An

institute level committee chaired by the Dean Academics and three or four members recommended by the
Director (preferably Dean R&D, SIG Coordinator, and few senior faculty members) should form the
framework for the Interdisciplinary projects across the departments. This committee will be responsible for
providing the guidelines for smooth execution of the Interdisciplinary projects and handling the grievances
if any.

It is recommended to form the Interdisciplinary Project Assessment Committee (IPAC) to ensure

uniformity in project activities, dissertation reports and to coordinate all interdisciplinary project groups
across the departments. This committee will be responsible for monitoring, assessment and evaluating the
timely progress of the projects and communicating the progress report to the students. The IPAC committee
will be comprised of few senior faculty members from all the departments and the committee will be chaired
by a senior professor nominated by the Director, the Dean Academics and the Head of the Departments.

Roles & Responsibilities of IPAC:

1. The IPAC shall invite the interdisciplinary project ideas from the faculty members of all the
departments and students.
2. IPAC should display the list of the interdisciplinary project ideas and the faculty members to all the
departments and students in the mid of sixth semester.
3. The IPAC shall invite the interest of the students for the projects.
4. Interested students can be forwarded to the respective guides or the students can approach the guide
directly.
5. The IPAC will display the final project groups along with the project title, the guide’s name and
name of the students. The details shall be communicated to all the relevant/respective stakeholders.
6. IPAC will be responsible for smooth and uniform conduction of the reviews of BTPs.
7. The detailed review schedule shall be communicated to the students 07 days in advance.
8. The review panel should be formed for each project group to evaluate the progress of the
interdisciplinary project. The IPAC shall monitor the progress of project work on a continuous
basis by scheduling and conducting the interdisciplinary project review presentations. The
IPAC should provide the evaluation sheet to the review panels based on suitable rubrics for
each project review to ensure the quality of the projects.

BTech (Computer Engineering), PCCoE Pune

Page 80
Department of Computer Engineering

9. The project reviews shall be conducted as per the schedule. The assessment and evaluation of each
student shall be carried out based on their individual participation, knowledge, content and skills.
For each review the panel members shall recommend the suitable suggestions. For subsequent
reviews, the recommendations should be implemented and can be verified by the review panel. After
each review, the panel shall submit the evaluation sheet to the project coordinators.
10. During this process, if any of the project group is not performing satisfactorily, the IPAC shall
provide counseling or guidance to improve their performance.
11. The IPAC shall submit names of one external examiner for conducting the final examination.

Roles & responsibilities of the Project Guide:

1. The project guide shall send the proposed project ideas or the detailed information of the proposed
project to be offered to the B. Tech.

2. The possible problem statements for project can be availed from

a. Industries

b. Research labs or organization

c. In-house research projects

d. Collegiate clubs

3. Project guide shall also recommend the name of the departments of the students to be involved in the
project execution.

4. The guide should be in touch with the IPAC (or the departments) for suitable students for the project.

5. Project guide shall help students to finalize (or identify) the project definition/statement and suggest
the objectives / methodology through brainstorming.

6. Project guides must monitor the weekly progress being carried out by the project groups. In case it is
found that progress is unsatisfactory it should be reported to the IPAC for necessary action.

7. In case of industry sponsored projects, guides are expected to visit the industry on a regular basis
along with students.

8. The project guide shall ensure the completion of all the project related activities as per the
requirement of review.

9. Project guide shall motivate the students to write patent, copyright, research funding proposal and
paper publications for the overall development of the student.

Guidelines for Students:

1. It is mandatory for all students to undergo the project work as a part of their final year of the B.Tech.
Program.

2. It is the responsibility of the students to complete their project work in the given time frame.

3. The Project group shall have minimum 2 students and maximum 4 students from any division.
