EC881 Project Stage II L:0T:15P 7.5 credits
The object of Project Work II & Dissertation is to enable the student to extend further
the investigative study taken up under EC P1, either fully theoretical/practical or
involving both theoretical and practical work, under the guidance of a Supervisor from the
Department alone or jointly with a Supervisor drawn from R&D laboratory/Industry. This is
expected to provide a good training for the student(s) in R&D work and technical
leadership. The assignment to normally include:
1. In depth study of the topic assigned in the light of the Report prepared under EC P1;
2. Review and finalization of the Approach to the Problem relating to the assigned topic;
3. Preparing an Action Plan for conducting the investigation, including team work;
4. Detailed Analysis/Modelling/Simulation/Design/Problem Solving/Experiment as needed;
