02EC7331 Seminar 0-0-2-2 2015
Course Objectives
• The objective of the seminar is to impart training to the students in collecting materials on a
specific topic from books, journals and other sources, compressing and organizing them in a
logical sequence, and presenting the matter effectively both orally and as a technical report.
• The basic thrust is to get acquainted with technical presentation and technical report writing
skills..
Syllabus
The student is expected to present a seminar in one of the current topics in Optoelectronics /
Optical Communication systems. Submit one page Abstract of the selected topic along with copies of
minimum two journal references and get the topic approved by one of the members of staff in charge of
the seminar. There shall be a minimum of two journal references of recent time related to the topic.
Presentation of topic based on mere website data is not allowed.
Each student shall present a seminar in the First semester on a topic relevant to Advancement in his/her
field for about 30 minutes. The topic shall be finally approved by the Seminar Evaluation Committee of
the Department. The committee shall evaluate the presentation of students. A seminar report in the
prescribed form shall be submitted to the department after the approval from the committee. A student is
supposed to meet his/her faculty supervisor and get some guidance about how he/she should prepare the
seminar. It is advisable that the students get their presentation slides corrected by their supervisors

Project (Phase 1) 2015

02EC7341 0-0-12- 6
Course Objectives
• To develop the student’s skills and enable innovation in design, simulation, implementation and
fabrication work from the theoretical and practical knowledge acquired from the previous
semesters.
• To apply and enhance the knowledge acquired in the related field and to make the students come
up with new ideas in their area of interest.
Syllabus
A project is a task that requires a lot of time and effort. During the Project phase I, the
students should choose the area of interest for their project work and collect as many references
or literatures as possible related to it and come up with a novel Idea/Problem .There should be a
systematic identification and prioritization of problems and it should be addressed through the
development of the project. Based on the literature survey, a system/method should be proposed
by the student as a solution to the problem identified. One third of the design should be
completed during the phase-I.
Every project work will be guided by a faculty member of the institution. Eight hours per
week will be allotted in the time table and this time should be utilized by the students to receive
the directions from the guide, on library reading, laboratory work, computer analysis or field
work as assigned by the guide and also to present in periodical reviews and reports on the
progress made in the project.
Each report must contain student's own analysis or design presented in the approved
format.
Sessional marks will include
(a) Evaluation of the student's progress,
(b) Degree of involvement and participation,
(c) Merit of the project
Page 95

A student will have to defend his/her project design work and credit will be given on the
merits of presentation and viva-voce examination
Course Outcome
• Appreciate various aspects of the curriculum which support students in increasing their
mastery.
• Get an idea and develop confidence in designing, analyzing and executing the project

up with new ideas in their area of interest.
Syllabus
The student has to continue the project work done in third semester. There would be
qualifying exercises/Reviews for the students. At least one technical paper is to be prepared for
possible publication in Journals/Conferences.
Twenty one hours per week will be allotted in the time table and this time should be
utilized by the students to receive the directions from the guide, on library reading, laboratory
work, computer analysis or field work as assigned by the guide. At the end of project work, a
project report must be submitted.
Each report must contain student's own analysis and/or results presented in an
approved format.
Sessional marks will include
(a) Evaluation of the student's progress,
(b) Degree of involvement and participation,
(c) Merit of the project
A student will have to defend his/her project work and credit will be given on the
merits of presentation and viva-voce examination
Course Outcome
• Appreciate various aspects of the curriculum which support students in increasing their
mastery,
• Get an idea and develop confidence in designing, analyzing and executing the project
• It helps the student to develop a skill of entrepreneurship
