Evaluation for Final Year Project(IDP/UDP)

The final year students are confused about the evaluation of their project work. Here is the table describing the weightage of the project for the final year.

Semester	Credits	Marks	Details
7th	4	150	50 marks for project defination
8th	8 or 12	400	100 marks for internal exams and 300 marks for University exams

Please note that project is a compulsary subject and if worked upon properly with more concentration,you can achieve better grades in last year which will directly increase your CGPA.

Also find that the project defination carries 50 marks on itself so select a better project defination.The student is supposed to submit project defination to HOD of your respective fields in the first week of  7^th Semester.It would be evaluated by the college itself which would be sent to GTU afterwards.
