All FYP - I students are required to submit the proposal to their respective supervisors physically or via email within the announced date.

All FYP - I group members are required to attend the Proposal Defense which will be held through video link.

All groups are required to constantly work on their project as at least 40% of the project needs to be completed by FYP - I Final Defense.

If you are developing an application like web/mobile or industrial, it should be based on innovative ideas, not just a simple CRUD application.

Projects that involve research work are allowed. Please note, research work is not a requirement for FYP.

The project should have wide enough scope, to justify a yearlong effort and 6 credit hours. Please make your proposal in good enough detail to estimate a yearlong effort.

If you are proposing some product, it must be a realistic and applicable idea.
