Every engineering student at GLA University has to work on a project starting from the seventh semester.
Projects & workshops play an important role in shaping the future & overall development of the students. Particularly, in today’s time when lakhs of students are graduating every year but very few of them are ready for the corporate world, as they lack some of the basic skills & fundamentals that every graduate should possess to excel in his/her career. Specifically for engineering students, a project is a must and they must give proper attention to it. Every engineering student at GLA University has to work on a project starting from the seventh semester. Students can choose any topic from subject of their choice. But, before starting to work on it, students must consult with their project guide in a detailed manner.
If a project is done seriously, the faculty members may help to get the students a good internship based on the project. The projects are important from the placement point of view too. The recruiters tend to ask questions about project work and if a student is able to demonstrate & explain their queries with clarity, the chances of selection get high.
