b) Mini Project : A group of 4-6 students should be assigned a mini project on various aspects
of Packaging Material Testing. This project should be graded for 10 marks depending on the
performance of the students
The distribution of Term Work marks will be as foll ows –
1.Attendance 05 marks
2. Laboratory Work 10 marks
3. Mini project 10 marks
End Semester Practical/Oral Examination (for 25 mar ks): Under single head of
examination, including Practical (15 marks assessme nt) followed by oral (10 marks assessment)
to be conducted by internal and external examiners.

PPPBL301 Mini Project 1A 2
Objectives
1. To acquaint with the process of identifying the nee ds and converting it into the problem.
2. To familiarize the process of solving the problem i n a group.
3. To acquaint with the process of applying basic engi neering fundamentals to attempt
solutions to the problems.
4. To inculcate the process of self-learning and resea rch.
Outcome: Learner will be able to…
1. Identify problems based on societal /research needs .
2. Apply Knowledge and skill to solve societal problem s in a group.
3. Develop interpersonal skills to work as member of a group or leader.
4. Draw the proper inferences from available results t hrough theoretical/
experimental/simulations.
5. Analyse the impact of solutions in societal and env ironmental context for sustainable
development.
6. Use standard norms of engineering practices
7. Excel in written and oral communication.
8. Demonstrate capabilities of self-learning in a grou p, which leads to lifelong learning.
9. Demonstrate project management principles during pr oject work.
Guidelines for Mini Project
• Students shall form a group of 3 to 4 students, whi le forming a group shall not be allowed
less than three or more than four students, as it i s a group activity.
• Students should do survey and identify needs, which shall be converted into problem
statement for mini project in consultation with fac ulty supervisor/head of
department/internal committee of faculties.
• Students shall submit implementation plan in the fo rm of Gantt/PERT/CPM chart, which
will cover weekly activity of mini project.
• A logbook to be prepared by each group, wherein gro up can record weekly work progress,
guide/supervisor can verify and record notes/commen ts.
• Faculty supervisor may give inputs to students duri ng mini project activity; however, focus
shall be on self-learning.
• Students in a group shall understand problem effect ively, propose multiple solution and
select best possible solution in consultation with guide/ supervisor.
• Students shall convert the best solution into worki ng model using various components of
their domain areas and demonstrate.
• The solution to be validated with proper justificat ion and report to be compiled in standard
format of University of Mumbai.
• With the focus on the self-learning, innovation, ad dressing societal problems and
entrepreneurship quality development within the stu dents through the Mini Projects, it is
preferable that a single project of appropriate lev el and quality to be carried out in two
semesters by all the groups of the students. i.e. M ini Project 1 in semester III and IV.
Similarly, Mini Project 2 in semesters V and VI.
• However, based on the individual students or group capability, with the mentor’s
recommendations, if the proposed Mini Project adher ing to the qualitative aspects
mentioned above gets completed in odd semester, the n that group can be allowed to work
on the extension of the Mini Project with suitable improvements/modifications or a
completely new project idea in even semester. This policy can be adopted on case by case
basis.
Guidelines for Assessment of Mini Project:
Page 19
Term Work
• The review/ progress monitoring committee shall be constituted by head of
departments of each institute. The progress of mini project to be evaluated on
continuous basis, minimum two reviews in each semes ter.
• In continuous assessment focus shall also be on eac h individual student, assessment
based on individual’s contribution in group activit y, their understanding and
response to questions.
• Distribution of Term work marks for both semesters shall be as below:
o Marks awarded by guide/supervisor based on logbook 10
o Marks awarded by review committee 10
o Quality of Project report 05
Review/progress monitoring committee may consider f ollowing points for assessment
based on either one year or half year project as me ntioned in general guidelines.
One-year project:
• In first semester entire theoretical solution shall be ready, including
components/system selection and cost analysis. Two reviews will be conducted
based on presentation given by students group.
First shall be for finalisation of problem
Second shall be on finalisation of proposed solutio n of problem.
• In second semester expected work shall be procureme nt of component’s/systems,
building of working prototype, testing and validati on of results based on work
completed in an earlier semester.
First review is based on readiness of building work ing prototype to be
conducted.
Second review shall be based on poster presentation cum demonstration of
working model in last month of the said semester.
Half-year project:
• In this case in one semester students’ group shall complete project in all aspects
including,
o Identification of need/problem
o Proposed final solution
o Procurement of components/systems
o Building prototype and testing
• Two reviews will be conducted for continuous assess ment,
First shall be for finalisation of problem and prop osed solution
Second shall be for implementation and testing of s olution.
Assessment criteria of Mini Project:
Mini Project shall be assessed based on following criteria:
1. Quality of survey/ need identification
2. Clarity of Problem definition based on need.
3. Innovativeness in solutions
4. Feasibility of proposed problem solutions and selec tion of best solution
5. Cost effectiveness
6. Societal impact
7. Innovativeness
8. Cost effectiveness and Societal impact
9. Full functioning of working model as per stated req uirements
10. Effective use of skill sets
11. Effective use of standard engineering norms
12. Contribution of an individual’s as member or leader
13. Clarity in written and oral communication

• In one year, project , first semester evaluation may be based on first s ix criteria’s
and remaining may be used for second semester evalu ation of performance of
students in mini project.
• In case of half year project all criteria’s in generic may be considered for
evaluation of performance of students in mini proje ct.
Guidelines for Assessment of Mini Project Practical /Oral Examination:
• Report should be prepared as per the guidelines iss ued by the University of Mumbai.
• Mini Project shall be assessed through a presentati on and demonstration of working model
by the student project group to a panel of Internal and External Examiners preferably from
industry or research organisations having experienc e of more than five years approved by
head of Institution.
• Students shall be motivated to publish a paper base d on the work in Conferences/students
competitions.
Mini Project shall be assessed based on following points:
1. Quality of problem and Clarity
2. Innovativeness in solutions
3. Cost effectiveness and Societal impact
4. Full functioning of working model as per stated req uirements
5. Effective use of skill sets
6. Effective use of standard engineering norms
7. Contribution of an individual’s as member or leader
