Industry Defined Project

Civil Engineering Department

It is an objective of engineering
institute run by Parul Arogya
Seva Mandal Trust to produce
Engineers & not only Engineer-
ing Graduates / Diploma Hold-
ers. To attain this objective stu-
dent should be provided thorough
practical training related to the
subjects. To inculcate engineer-
ing skill & competence in the stu-
dents, practical application of
knowledge will be done in IDP as
prescribed in syllabus by Gujrat
Technological University (GTU)
for final year students.

Defi ned Proj ect ?
Parul Institute of Technology
Approved By AICTE
Affiliated to Gujarat Technological University
Engineering is nothing but common sense
developed by practical application.

of all NITs in filing patents.
Under Industry Defined Project final year students
are encouraged to find out real life engineering
problem and work towards solution to it by apply-
ing what they have
learned under guid-
ance of expert fac-
ulty members.
Student can carry
out field project/
computational pro-
ject / experimental
project/simulation
project under the
guidance of faculty
to understand and solve real life challenge in Civil
Engineering.
After identifying problem thorough study and analy-
sis will be done to understand the same and by
brainstorming and using resources required students
will try to find out innovative solution to the prob-
lem.
During the one semester (four months) period the
whole effort will be carried out by students and their
faculties, however it will be highly appreciated if
Industry counterpart will also play active role. It will
be responsibility of student and his guide to prepare
the project report for evaluation. We expect indus-
tries to share their problems and inputs on which
students and faculties can work and prepare project
beneficial to stakeholders.


What will be done in
IDP?
Innovation can bridge the gap
between need and availability!
Lets hope this bridge becomes
bridge between
Industry and Academia!!
