Important Dates & Deliverables

A. Registering FYP-I

Read the basic FYP Rules first. Registration of students and groups — at the final stage of the 6th semester — is done by submitting a project proposal according to the given template, available on the Downloads page. The proposal must be signed by all students, the supervisor and the co-supervisor if any, and must include a Turnitin report. Submit the proposal in soft form to your supervisor; the supervisor submits it through Google Forms during the first four weeks of the semester.

After one to two weeks you will be notified whether the proposal is accepted or rejected. Once accepted, you cannot change your project, group members or supervisor without submitting a Change Request Form (on the Downloads page), subject to approval. Doing so without approval from the FYPC Secretary may result in FYP cancellation.

FYP-I is a 2 credit course, so register a maximum of 19 credit hours with SSC — that way, when the FYPC sends your FYP-I registration request, your total does not exceed 21. Ignore this and SSC may drop one of your courses, possibly weeks after registration.

Proposal submission checklist

1. Proposal is prepared following the latest Proposal Template.
2. All group members' names, registration numbers, emails, CGPAs and phone numbers are on the specified page.
3. All students' signatures are done.
4. Supervisor and co-supervisor's name, designation and signature are done.
5. Turnitin report is attached.
6. Gantt chart is added into the proposal.
7. The soft copy you email contains all of the above.

B. FYP-I evaluation

At the end of the 7th semester, the FYP-I report soft copy signed by the concerned supervisor is submitted online according to the deadline. One week before the final lab exams, FYP-I projects are evaluated by the supervisor and an internal examiner together. Students prepare a presentation of the work completed so far, and are expected to have completed most of their documentation or research and at least a prototype of the project.

C. FYP-II submission

1. Students submit the soft copy of the FYP-II report to their supervisor, who submits it through Google Forms.
2. If the students or the supervisor feel the project is not ready for presentation, an IP Request Form signed by the supervisor may be submitted to the FYP Committee Secretary. An IP grade is then assigned for the current semester and the student repeats FYP-II next semester.

D. Final deliverables

Submit the following to Ms. Iqra Obaid after the final evaluation (iqraobaid@cuilahore.edu.pk):

1. Two printed reports with black hard binding — for the CS Department and the supervisor.
2. Three CDs — for the library, the supervisor and the CS Department. Each CD packed well, with a label pasted on the back showing your Group ID and Project Title.

Each CD should contain:

1. FYP report in MS Word and PDF format (one is acceptable, both are recommended).
2. Presentation in MS PowerPoint format.
3. Poster in PowerPoint, PNG, JPG or Photoshop format — a high resolution PNG is recommended. The hard copy of the poster is not required.
4. Software: complete source code; executable file if applicable; SQL script of the database schema and seed data if applicable.
