Industry Institute Collaborative Domain specific Theme Based Projects

摘要

In this paper we share our experience with curriculum delivery through industry institute collaborative domain specific theme based projects. We had floated the theme based projects and industry floated projects during their 5th and 6th semester respectively. The theme based projects facilitate the students to think beyond the curriculum, and the industry projects help them to mould themselves to the industry expectations. The theme decided for 5th semester 2017-18 batch students (first batch of KLE technological university) was to enhance their coding skills with focus on optimization. During their 6th semester they had to choose the projects from the pool of around 13 industry projects. Along with technical skills, the presentations skills are also mandatory to mark their feet in the competitive world, students were guided to use open source English grammar checking and plagiarism checking tools to prepare their project reports towards enhancing their technical writing skills. It was challenging to meet the expectations of the industry and to speak the same language to solve the given problem within a short span of a semester. Towards this, the competent students are allowed to continue with their 6th semester projects as Institute Research Project (IRP) with exemption of two electives in their forth coming semesters. The vision of IRP is to mould the students to industry expectations and foster their technical skills towards the development of the product.
