Special projects
 3 This is an unstructured open-ended course where under the overall supervision of an instructor- in-charge, batches of students will be attached to different instructors. Each batch will work on a specific time-bound project which is of basic or peripheral concern of his discipline. Each student must submit a project report as a culmination of his endeavour and investigation. The instructor- in-charge will determine the choice of the project and also whether or not the project report is to be submitted jointly by a group or individually by a student. The course will aim to evaluate student's actual ability to use the fundamentals of knowledge and to meet new unknown situations as demonstrated by the students' interaction with the instructors and instructor in-charge and aggregated in the project report. The instructor-in- charge may assign specific hours for formal brain-storming sessions.
