PROJECT M-806 -- 02 Sessional -- -- 25 25 50
University -- --

Students are required to carry out project work related to mechanical engineering under the
supervision / guidance of faculty members . The project may be based on
(I ) Design , And/Or Fabrication
(II ) Modeling And Simulation on Computer
(III ) Society / Industry Need Based Basic Survey Or Testing or Analysis etc.

The project work can be carried out in the institute or in the industry or in any research
organization. The student can undertake project single handed or in a group of not more than four students.

At the end of the semester , student is required to submit a report consisting of

- Title of the project

- Aims & Objectives
- Literature survey
- Scope of work
- Formulation of the problem / work done.
- Results & conclusions derived (if any )
- Scope for future work / studies
- References
- Acknowledgement

Student will defend his work before the examiners at the time of final evaluation.
