1.2 *COURSE NUMBER (if known):: DP.MS291.15

1.3 CREDITS:: [0-0-5] 5 Credits

1.4 SEMESTER-OFFERED:: Fourth (IV)

1.5 PRE-REQUISITES:: Introduction to Engineering Materials

2. OBJECTIVE:: The specific objectives of the course could depend on the problem definition for the project but the overall performance will be measured on the following criteria.

UNIT-I: Literature survey- Students will be having a brief literature survey on the topic selected by the allotted instructor/supervisor. A brief draft should be prepared out this activity.

UNIT-II: Problem Identification - An appropriate/feasible problem should be selected for the problem.

UNIT-III: Experimental/Theoretical work- The work need not necessarily be novel or original and could be a clear exposition of otherwise hard concepts or a new perspective. The purpose is to measure understanding of the techniques and methods used and to appreciate the results in the larger context of their applicability in science and engineering. It is important to emphasize early on, the effort and time it takes to make a work presentable.

UNIT-IV: Presentation/Demonstration- A presentation should be made for the work done during the semester having clear identification of problem/s undertaken, work done, objectivity of experiments performed and a summary of the important results.

A combination of the above criteria can be used to grade the work. Typically, the following guidelines could be helpful for projects taken up as part of different semesters.

Evaluation procedure: Literature Survey 25%, Experimental/Theoretical work 50%, Demonstration and Presentation 25%.
