- 12. SUGGESTEDMICRO-PROJECTS Only one micro-project is planned to be undertaken by a student that needs to be assigned at the beginning of the semester. The number of students in the group should not exceed three. The micro-project could be industry application based, internet-based, workshop-based, laboratory-based, or field-based. Each micro-project should encompass at least COs with in integration of PrOs, UOs, and ADOs. The duration of the micro project should be about 4-5(four to five) student engagement hours during the course. The students ought to submit a micro-project by the end of the semester to develop the industry-oriented COs. Production and Operations Management Course Code: 4362002 A representative list of micro-projects is given here. This has to match the competency and the COs. Similar micro-projects could be added by the concerned course teacher or using suggested student activity. A representative list of micro-projects is given here. The concerned faculty can add similar micro- projects based on student activities (chart/presentation/report/model/animation):
