Particulars
Individual students are required to choose a topic of their interest from related topics to the stream of
specialization and work for four hours per week guided by faculty. The students are required to do a
moderate literature review on the topic and give a presentation on their respective topic and also engage
in discussion with the audience.
A committee consisting of at least three faculty members (preferably specialized in the respective
stream) shall assess the presentation of the seminar and award marks to the students based on merits of
topic of presentation at end of semester. Students will have to present a seminar of not less than fifteen
minutes and not more than thirty minutes on the technical topic. Evaluation will be based on the
technical presentation and the report and also on the interaction shown during the seminar.
Each student shall submit two copies of a write up of his seminar topic. The seminar report shall not
have any plagiarised content (all sources shall be properly cited or acknowledged). One copy shall be
returned to the student after duly certifying it by the chairman of the assessing committee and the other
shall be kept in the departmental library.
Internal continuous assessment marks are awarded based on the basis of continuous internal
presentations (minimum two presentation should be done by students in front of concerned faculty duly
