Students will conduct investigations of the problem using research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of information to provide valid conclusions. Students will understand and adhere to professional ethics and ethical principles of research. The students will be required to present a progress report at the end of the first semester, and present and submit a thesis at the end of the work. ### Course Objectives To perform experimental and/or theoretical investigation of a research topic To review research literature and related contemporary aspects of the topic, To identify, formulate a proposal to solve a specific problem related to the topic, interpret data, and analyze the problem using first principles of mathematical, natural or engineering sciences To conduct investigations of the problem using research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of information to provide valid conclusions To attend seminars and communicate effectively with oral presentation and detailed thesis report To understand and adhere to professional ethics and ethical principles of research ### Knowledge required Fundamental understanding of concepts of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Different concepts, tools and software specific to the research problem ### Course Outcomes | CO No. | CO Statement | Corresponding PO(s)\* | Domains and Taxonomy level(s)\*\* | Delivery Method(s) and Activity(-ies) | Assessment Tool(s) | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | CO1 | Identify, **formulate**, research literature, interpret data, and **analyze** problems using principles of mathematical, natural and engineering sciences | PO(b) | | -- | Thesis Book Thesis Presentation | | CO2 | **Investigate** of problems using research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of information to provide valid conclusions. | PO(d) | | | Thesis Book Thesis Presentation | | CO3 | **Apply** knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering to solve research problems | PO(a) | | | Thesis Book Thesis Presentation | | CO4 | **Demonstrate** adherence to professional ethics and ethical principles of research | PO(h) | C5 | -- | Thesis Book | | CO5 | **Communicate** effectively with oral presentation and detailed thesis report | PO(j) | A2 | -- | Thesis Book Thesis Presentation | | CO6 | **Research** contemporary aspects related to the problem and topic through detailed literature review and understand | PO(l) | P6 | - | Thesis Book Thesis Presentation | \*Cognitive Domain Taxonomy Levels: **C1** – Knowledge, **C2** – Comprehension, **C3** – Application, **C4** – Analysis, **C5** – Synthesis, **C6** – Evaluation, **Affective Domain Taxonomy Levels**: **A1**: Receive; **A2:** Respond; **A3:** Value (demonstrate); **A4:** Organize; **A5:** Characterize; **Psychomotor Domain Taxonomy Levels:** **P1:** Perception; **P2**: Set; **P3:** Guided Response; **P4:** Mechanism; **P5:** Complex Overt Response; **P6:** Adaptation; **P7:** Organization Program Outcomes (PO): **PO(a)** Engineering Knowledge, **PO(b)** Problem Analysis, **PO(c)** Design/development Solution, **PO(d)** Investigation, **PO(e)** Modern tool usage, **PO(f)** The Engineer and Society, **PO(g)** Environment and sustainability, **PO(h)** Ethics, **PO(i)** Individual work and team work, **PO(j)**.
