Team Formation:

The first step is group formation. This step can prove to be a practical scale to gauge your group. Each team could be minimum of two students and maximum of three students. Mostly students formulate teams by themselves considering common interest like application area, domain interest etc. Each team must have a team lead, selected by all team members with concensus.

Most of the students intend to pick the adviser based on their likeness. But still project advisor recommends to pick supervisors who can guide them in the right direction. 

Choosing Your Project Topic

Most tricky part of undertaking a final year project is the project selection. After the team formation and selection of supervisor, project supervisor and project manager (class incharge) helps teams to finalize project topic. Teams are free to choose either application development area or research area. All these activities must be completed within first two weeks.

Developing Your Project Proposal

Project teams need to submit the project proposal before practically working on the relevant project. The project proposal is the proposal that involves the main topic of the project team’s aim to work on, its scope in the industry, major applications and how this project could help them to grow and excel in relevant technical field.

Planning Your Project

Once project proposal’s approved, teams have to make extensive plans as how to go about it since they are the foundation of a proposed research. The plan should cover every aspect of application development or research work and what it requires.
