L T P
- - 9
RATIONALE

Industry Based Project Work aims at developing innovative skills in the students whereby
they apply the knowledge and skills gained through the course by undertaking a project.
The individual students have different aptitudes and strengths. Project work, therefore,
should match the individual strengths of students. The prime emphasis of the project work
is to understand and apply the basic knowledge of the principles of software engineering
practices in real life situations, so as to participate and manage a large software
engineering projects in future.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

After undergoing the subject, the student will be able to:

 Implement the theoretical and practical knowledge and skills gained through
various subjects/courses into an application suitable for a real practical working
environment, preferably in an industrial environment.
 Develop software packages or applications and implement these for the actual
needs of the community/industry.
 Explain the working of industrial environment and its work ethics.
 Explain what entrepreneurship is and how to become an entrepreneur.
 Identify and contrast gap between the technological knowledge acquired through
curriculum and the actual industrial need and to compensate it by acquiring
additional knowledge as required.
 Carry out cooperative learning through synchronous guided discussions within the
class in key areas, asynchronous document sharing and discussions, as well as
prepare collaborative edition of the final project report.
 Field computing and to achieve real life experience in software design.
 Apply the knowledge about disaster management in practical situations.

General Guidelines

 The individual students have different aptitudes and strengths. Project work,
therefore, should match the strengths of students. For this purpose, students
should be asked to identify the type of project work, they would like to execute.
The activity of problem identification should begin well in advance (say at the end
of second year). Students should be allotted a problem of interest to him/her as a
major project work. It is also essential that the faculty of the respective
department may have a brainstorming session to identify suitable project
assignments for their students. The project assignment can be individual
 assignment or a group assignment. There should not be more than 3 students if the
project work is given to a group. The project work identified in collaboration with
industry should be preferred.
 This project work should not be considered as merely conventional industrial
training in which students are sent at work places with either minimal or no
supervision. This experience is required to be planned in advance and supervised
on regular basis by the polytechnic faculty. For the fulfillment of above objectives,
polytechnics may establish close linkage with 8-10 relevant organization for
providing such an experience to students. It is necessary that each organization is
visited well in advance and activities to be performed by students are well defined.
The chosen activities should be such that it matches with the curricular interest to
students and of professional value to industrial/ field organizations. Each teacher
is expected to supervise and guide 5-6 students.

The project assignments may consist of:

 Installation of computer systems, peripherals and software
 Programming customer based applications
 Web page designing including database connectivity
 Database applications
 Networking
 Software Development
 Fabrication of components/equipment (computer related components)
 Fault-diagnosis and rectification of computer systems and peripherals
 Bringing improvements in the existing systems/equipment
 Projects related to Multimedia
 Projects related to Computer Graphics
 Web Hosting
 Configuration of Network Operating System(Windows, Linux)
 Configuration of servers (Proxy, DNS etc)
 Data analysis
 Data acquisition through multiple interfaces.

Following are the broad suggestive areas of project work

 Database Management Systems.

 Software Engineering and Software Development.
 Web page Designing.
 Computer Graphics and Animation.
 Multimedia Systems.
 Computer Networks.
 Internet and e-commerce.
 Computer Security and Cryptography.
 Computer hardware and embedded systems.
 Improving existing systems / equipments.
 Any other related area found worth.
A suggestive criterion for assessing student performance by the external (person from
industry) and internal (teacher) examiner is given in table below:

Sr. Performance Criteria Max. Rating Scale

Total marks 100 100 80 60 40 20

The overall grading of the practical training shall be made as per following table.

In order to qualify for the diploma, students must get “Overall Good grade” failing which
the students may be given one more chance to improve and re-evaluate before being
disqualified and declared “not eligible to receive diploma ”. It is also important to note
that the students must get more than six “goods” or above “good” grade in different
performance criteria items in order to get “Overall Good” grade.

Range of maximum marks Overall grade

i) More than 80 Excellent

ii) 79 < > 65 Very good
iii) 64 < > 50 Good
iv) 49 < > 40 Fair
v) Less than 40 Poor
Important Notes

1. This criteria must be followed by the internal and external examiner and they should
see the daily, weekly and monthly reports while awarding marks as per the above
criteria.

2. The criteria for evaluation of the students have been worked out for 200 maximum
marks. The internal and external examiners will evaluate students separately and
give marks as per the study and evaluation scheme of examination.

3. The external examiner, preferably, a person from industry/organization, who has

been associated with the project-oriented professional training of the students,
should evaluate the students performance as per the above criteria.

4. It is also proposed that two students or two projects which are rated best be given
merit certificate at the time of annual day of the institute. It would be better if
specific nearby industries are approached for instituting such awards.

The teachers are free to evolve other criteria of assessment, depending upon the type of
project work.
It is proposed that the institute may organize an annual exhibition of the project work
done by the students and invite leading Industrial organisations in such an exhibition.
