An Assessment of Final Year project Using Fuzzy Logic

Abstract: This paper discusses the development of outcome based learning and quality assessment of final year projects for bachelor of engineering degree. This will ensure the objectives of the final year project which is aimed at enhancing the technical and soft skills knowledge in solving the problems through engineering and application of knowledge. The final year project in the college must be structured not only to address the issue of soft skills but at the same time to have an outcome based learning approach that in some way simulates the working world into a classroom scenario. The objectives of the project are1) the capability to complete the projects within the stipulated time 2)The capability to use and manage scientific knowledge to carry out engineering projects.3)the capability to think objectively, analytically, critically in identifying and solving problems in a systematic manner.4) the capability to deliver or present the project findings in oral and written form. The issues of objectives outcomes, assessment instruments and tools, marking criteria are discussed.
