At the time of report submissions, the students must hand over a copy of these details to the project coordinator and see that they are entered in proper registers maintained in the department. Software projects must include a virus free disc, containing the software developed by them along with the read me file. Read me file should contain the details of the variables used, salient features of the software and procedure of using them: compiling procedure, details of the computer hardware/software requirements to run the same, etc. If the developed software uses any public domain software downloaded from some site, then the address of the site along with the module name etc. must be included on a separate sheet. It must be properly acknowledged in the acknowledgments.

Sponsored Projects must also satisfy the above requirements along with statement of accounts, bills for the same dully attested by the concerned guides to process further, They must also produce NOC from the concerned guide before taking the internal viva examination.

Guide/s & Panel of Examiners for III semester M.Tech. Dissertation

While proposing the panel of examiners, the following points shall be taken care. In case the candidate has carried out full or part of the work of dissertation outside the institution, the name of the external guide should be mentioned compulsorily by giving full details. The internal guide may be from other department, if the dissertation work is inter- disciplinary. While proposing the external examiners, care should be taken to list the examiners who are working in the same field. The examiner may be drawn from other departments in case of work is of interdisciplinary type. If the work is carried out in an industry, the list of proposed examiners should contain at least one examiner from the industry and should be well experienced in the field. The external examiner proposed should be at least of Assistant Professor or Selection grade lecturer cadre preferably with Ph. D., if they are from educational institutions. To the extent possible, do not suggest the same examiner for more than three dissertations.
