The objective of this course is to develop in students the capacity for analysis & judgment and the ability to carry out independent investigation in design/development through a dissertation work involving creativity, innovation and ingenuity. The work should start with comprehensive literature search and critical appreciation thereof so as to select a research problem and finalize the topic of dissertation.

Each student will carry out an independent dissertation under the supervision of a supervisor; in no case, more than two supervisors may be associated with one dissertation work. The first supervisor must be from the department, however, for interdisciplinary research work, the second supervisor may be from other department of the university/ outside university/industry. In the latter case, consent of the second supervisor with justification thereof needs to be submitted to the dissertation coordinator.

The Dissertation (Phase-I) involving literature survey and problem formulation along with data collection (if required) commences in 3rd semester &will be completed as Dissertation (Phase-II) in 4th semester. Each student will be required to present two seminar talks, first towards the beginning of the Dissertation (Phase-I) to present the scope of the work and to finalize the topic, and the second towards the end of the semester, presenting the progress report containing literature survey, partial results (if any) of the work carried out by him/her in the semester.The student will be required to submit one copy of spiral-bound progress report to the M.Tech. Coordinator.

Internal evaluation of Dissertation (Phase-I) will be done by following committee:

1. Chairperson / Head of Department / Nominee : Chairperson

2. M.Tech. Coordinator/Senior Faculty : Member-Secretary

3. Respective Dissertation Supervisor(s) : Member(s)

Final exam will be conducted by the internal examiner (M.Tech. Coordinator/ faculty nominated by Chairperson) & an external examiner to be appointed by Controller of Examinations from a panel of examiners submitted by the Dept.

For this course, M. Tech. coordinator will be assigned a load of 1 hour per week excluding his/ her own guiding load. Dissertation supervisor (guiding teacher) will be assigned a load of 1 hour per week for the first student and additional 1 hour per week (for their own department only) for the subsequent student(s) subject to a maximum load of 2 hours. Work load allocated for the joint supervision within the department will be treated as half for each supervisor.

The Dissertation started in IIIrd Semester will be completed in IV Semester. During phase – II, student is expected to exert on design, development and testing of the proposed work as per the schedule. Accomplished results/contributions/innovations may be published/communicated in terms of research papers in reputed journals and review- focused conferences OR IP/Patents.

Phase – II deliverables: A dissertation report as per the specified format, developed system in the form of hardware and/or software, a record of continuous progress.

Phase – II evaluation: The Dissertation will be evaluated in the following manner

Internal Assessment

Internal Assessment (Class work evaluation) will be effected as per ordinance through interim report, presentation and discussion thereon by the following committee of three members.

Chairperson of Department : Chairperson

M.Tech. Coordinator/Sr. Faculty : Member Secretary

Respective dissertation Supervisor : Member

External Assessment

Final dissertation will be assessed by a panel of examiners consisting of the following

Chairperson of Department : Chairperson

Respective Supervisor(s) : Member(s)

External expert : To be appointed by the University

In case of unsatisfactory performance, committee may recommend for extension or repeating the work.

Supervisors will be assigned one hour teaching load per week.

NOTE:

1. M.Tech. Coordinator shall coordinate the work of dissertation exam.

2. The External Expert must be from the respective area of specialization. The Chairperson & M. Tech Co-ordinator with mutual consultation will divide the submitted dissertations into groups depending upon the area of specialization and will recommend the list of experts for each group separately to the V C for selecting the examiners with the note that an external expert should be assigned a maximum of FIVE dissertations for evaluation.

3. The student will be required to submit THREE copies of his/her report to the M.Tech. Co-ordinator for record and processing.
