Preamble
These guidelines are intended to give both students and faculty members at the Department of
Computer Science and Engineering a set of procedures and expectations that will make the
project evaluation process easier, more predictable, and more successful. These guidelines
should also be interpreted as the minimum requirements of the degree awarded by Anna
University. The Project Committee assigned for various programmes offered under Department of
Computer Science & Engineering may add requirements or guidelines as they see fit – as long as
there are no less demanding than the guidelines set forth in this document.
Eligibility
The Eligibility criteria for the Under Graduate students are to be followed as per the regulations
given by Anna University during Admission. The total internal assessment marks shall be 50 there
shall be three assessments (each 100 marks) during the semester by a review committee. The
Head of the Department shall constitute the review committee. The student shall make
presentation on the progress made before the committee. The total marks obtained in the three
assessments shall be reduced to 45 marks and rounded to the nearest integer. The remaining 5
marks shall be distributed for attendance.
General Suggestions and Expectations
The project is by far the most important single piece of work in the degree programme. It provides
the opportunity for you to demonstrate independence and originality, to plan and organise a large
project over a long period, and to put into practice some of the techniques you have been taught
throughout the course. The students are advised to choose a project that involves a combination
of sound background research, a solid implementation, or piece of theoretical work, and a
thorough evaluation of the project's output in both absolute and relative terms. Interdisciplinary
project proposals and innovative projects are encouraged and more appreciable.
Staff Proposals
For projects proposed by members of staff you should discuss the project with the proposer as
soon as possible so that you have plenty of time to think about the best choices for you. Note that
not every project is suitable for every student: some may be specifically tailored to a particular
degree and some may only suit students with a very specific set of interests. Each proposal will
indicate these constraints in order to help you to make an informed choice.
Own Proposals
If you have your own idea for an individual project it is your responsibility to find a member of staff
who both approves of the proposed programme of work and is willing to guide it. You should first
get the permission of Project Committee, and may proceed with the same with the consistent
consent of the guide.
Choosing the right project
The projects offered by staff may vary substantially in breadth, depth and degree of difficulty. The
most important thing is to shortlist a set of projects that are right for you. Some students are better
suited to well-defined and relatively safe projects that provide scope for demonstrating proficiency
with a low risk of failure. Other students are better advised to tackle harder, riskier projects that
require a high degree of original input and/or technical problem solving.
