recorded lectures from BITS Pilani faculty members, course handouts and
recorded lab content wherever applicable.
Project Work
The fourth semester offers an opportunity for learners to apply
their knowledge gained during the programme to a real-world
like complex project. The learner is expected to demonstrate
understanding of vital principles learnt across semesters and
their ability to successfully apply these concepts
Continuous Assessment
The assessment includes graded assignments/quizzes,
mid-semester and comprehensive exam
