Questions
Which syllabus does this Major Project course follow?
It follows the BTEUP diploma syllabus (Civil Engineering - Semester 6). If your polytechnic or university syllabus differs, the centre follows your own syllabus and unit order.
Will you write the report or make the project for us?
No. The mentor guides you milestone by milestone so that you do the work and write the report yourself and can explain it in the viva.
How is the practical work assessed?
The trainer watches each experiment / milestone and marks it on a rubric, followed by viva questions, as in the board practical exam.
Which project topics are suitable?
Building design (G+2 / G+3 with STAAD or manual design), road or survey projects, material testing (fly ash, recycled aggregates), rain water harvesting, estimation and BOQ projects, chosen as per your college's approval.
