AE2452 COMPREHENSION AND TECHNICAL SEMINAR L T P C
(Common To All Branches) 0 0 3 2
OBJECTIVE
The objective of comprehension is to provide opportunity for the student to apply the
knowledge acquired during the earlier semesters to real life problems which he / she
may have to face in future as an engineer. While learning as how to solve the real life
problems, student will receive guidance from the faculty and also review various courses
learnt earlier.

AE2453 PROJECT WORK L T P C

(Common to all Branches) 0 0 12 6
OBJECTIVE
The objective of the project work is to enable the students in convenient groups of not
more than 4 members on a project involving theoretical and experimental studies related
to the branch of study. Every project work shall have a guide who is the member of the
faculty of the institution. Six periods per week shall be allotted in the time table and this
time shall be utilized by the students to receive the directions from the guide, on library
reading, laboratory work, computer analysis or field work as assigned by the guide and
also to present in periodical seminars on the progress made in the project.
Each student shall finally produce a comprehensive report covering background
information, literature survey, problem statement, project work details and conclusion.
This final report shall be in typewritten form as specified in the guidelines.
The continuous assessment shall be made as prescribed by the regulation (vide clause
10.3 of Anna University Regulations 2004 for B.E., B.Tech. programmes)
TOTAL: 180 PERIODS
