Selecting Engineering Project
1. Selection of Project
(Final & Pre-final Year Engineering)
Mr. A. B. Shinde
Assistant Professor,
Electronics Engineering,
P V P Institute of Technology, Budhgaon
2. Project…Intentions
• Its just an implementation of your theoretical knowhow…to
develop an design/prototype/model.
• You will be required to learn a lot of new things while you are
working on the project.
• It's a great learning experience…!

4. How to Select Project…
1. You don't have to come up with Earth-breaking, Nobel
Winning Idea.
It is not expected that you should develop a brand-new project
that was never seen before.
Think of a problem that you have faced earlier and felt that
there should be an improvement…!
All you should do is to focus on “Improvements in the things
around you”.

2. Team
The topic selection is always a team effort.
Every person in the team should feel that the topic is the right.
If only few members of the team are interested then the team
won't be able to function together.
If everyone is ready to work on project idea then only all will
work with enthusiasm and honesty.

3. Budget
Budget is always an crucial criteria while selecting the project.
Make a correct estimate so that everyone can contribute.
If funding is required then you need to start looking for the
sources (funding agency/sponsored project).

4. Hardware / Software / Tools / Technology Needed
Consider overall requirements of the project.
If project requirement is Robotics - Is everyone in team
comfortable to work on it?
If project requirement is Raspberry Pi - Check that the team
members are comfortable to use it and vice-versa.
If not – Ask all team members to learn the required
technology/platform/software etc…

• Check for availability of literature (Data of previous work).
• Ensure that team members are ready to work on new platform.
• Ensure that the topic is manageable and tools are available.
• Take the consent from supervisor/guide.
• Be flexible about implementation technology.
• Define your topic as a focused research question.
• Re-search and read more about your topic.

10. Important Tips…
• Focus on your Area of Interest:
Although there are number of domains available for selecting
projects… but you focus on your area of interest.
Identifying your area of interest will help you to finalise your
project.
By doing this, you can specialize in a particular technology and
this experience comes handy when you advance in your
career.

12. Important Tips…
• Check for the feasibility of project:
• Some of the questions you need to ask are:
– Whether you can get the right hardware?
– Whether there is a proper lab facility for testing or not?
– Can you complete the project within the time limit or not?
– Whether educational material is available?
– Can you answer viva questions on those topics?
– Can your supervisor/guide help you in those technologies?
12Mr. A. B. Shinde
13. Important Tips…
• Collect the information of earlier projects:
Know the projects that were done previously.
Knowing this will help you to identify the problems that they
have faced and you can try to avoid them by prior planning.
You can avoid the repetition technologies that are used earlier.
You can reach to person if you are having any problem.

14. Important Tips…
• Download project journals for reference:
Before finalizing a project topic, get as many project journals as
possible that involve the same technology.
You can learn more about the technology and save lots of time.
These journals will also act as a guide for you to avoid errors
while doing the project.
Use these journals as reference materials to create project
reports which are equally important to successful completion of
your project.
