Abstract

Abstract: To improve engineering education quality of student, project is a major concern. Project experience provides a major pathway for student’s career either for their professional career or upgrading the qualification through Post Graduation or Ph.D. in Engineering. Being a very practical field, it requires experience and exposure to the real world to be expertise and successful in a certain domain. Project work integrates hands-on experiences with education which facilitate them while they are on their job desk and are being appreciated for their updated knowledge. Quality projects require effective project management. It is observed that there is very less studies done on the project management skills required for the engineering graduates. This will assist the students to learn and adequately apply their knowledge in their future project work which will help them to convey a superior focused on and more significant projects. To strengthen student project development, there is a need to incorporate innovative practices through set of program specific research activities with defined strategies. Also program specific research activities will attain higher values for program outcome.
