GTU guideline for all PMMS activities related to final year BE projects

With aim of great objectives, GTU has started the PMMS activities for improving the project qualities to high level as well to overcome the problem of repetitive and duplication work.

The objective of PMMS portal is to develop a system for helping the students to get appropriate help and mentoring online and to help them work more systematically on their project. This will be used for all projects being carried out by the students in all BE colleges/institutes, affiliated with GTU.

This platform will help the students to remain in active contact with their team members, their faculty guide and industry-mentors (if any). On the site, the students will be able toupdate their progress in the project and on which the guide & the external mentor (if any),can comment on the status, progress and problems. This will increase collaboration and co-creation while improving novelty of their work.

The detailed GTU guideline related to all phases of project work, for semester 7 & 8 is available at: http://files.gtu.ac.in/circulars/15SEP/07092015.pdf

Hence the list of only those faculty will be shown to students, whose details has been given by colleges to GTU via GTu admin panel.

For example: If at department Y in college X, their are 20 faculty (actually) working in college but only 10 are mentioned at GTU admin panel then students from such college X and Y department will find list of only 10 faculty during their team formation, rest 10 will not be displayed still they are working officially in the college.

Please refer following GTU circular: 
Staff Portal, to fill and validate online Faculty information is open for all institutes for first FIVE Working Days of Month: http://files.gtu.ac.in/circulars/15SEP/11092015_02.pdf
