CSE-402 SEMINAR

[ 0 0 3 1]

Each student has to present a seminar individually, on any technical topic related to the subject, but not covered in the syllabus. The time duration for presentation is 45 minutes and 15 minutes is devoted for question and answer session. Slides have to be prepared for the presentation. A seminar report has to be submitted on the day of the presentation.

CSE-404 INDUSTRIAL TRAINING

[0 0 3 1]

The Students are supposed to take up either industrial training or an industrial tour during the vacations after 2nd semester and before the beginning of the 7th semester. The evaluation is carried out in 7th semester and the obtained grade included in 7th semester grade sheet.

CSE- 499 PROJECT

[0 0 -- 20]

The final project gives an opportunity to the students to use the methodologies/techniques taught in several courses over a period of 7 semesters. Projects will be done using software engineering approach. This course provides the students with the opportunity to work on a project from conception through implementation and testing of a prototype. The emphasis in this course is the analysis, design and implementation as per software engg. guidelines. It is expected that each project group will have a working prototype to demonstrate by the end of this course. The students can carry out the project either in an industry or in the college.
