The objective of this paper is to present the effectiveness of Project Based Learning incorporating the development of student's soft skills like communication and team work as well as technical or professional competences such as deep thinking and learning. A case study in the form of one month value added course on Project based learning using Unified Technology Learning Platform (UTLP) for Electrical cluster students is implemented. The learning outcome of the student is evaluated at regular intervals during the course. These outcomes are driven by institution's vision of the knowledge and skills that students need to acquire in order to be independent and a life long learner. This paper shows how project based learning can be used to facilitate for the production of qualified and well prepared professionals. This paper also presents an approach for the project assessment used to make the learning outcomes effectively.Keywords

Today, industry needs highly skilled engineering graduates to combat real world challenges in an efficient manner. The mere knowledge of theoretical concepts would not help the students to solve the global challenges. As such, nurturing young minds to appreciate complex problems and to think of innovative solutions either to alleviate prevalent problems or to improve the quality of life become the responsibility of technical institutions. The project contests to showcase the talents would help the students to exhibit their skills and project their ideas with peers and also with the industry experts. In this paper, the learning outcomes of one such national level project contest “TELECOMBAT”, held at the Department of Telecommunication Engineering, BMS College of Engineering, Bangalore has been presented. The contest aimed to bring together industry and academia experts to strengthen the industry-institution interaction and also to get the students' projects evaluated by the industry experts which would help the students to understand the need for implementing quality projects to excel in their professional career. The suggestions given by the experts have been incorporated for evaluating student's projects for the successive years. The rigorous evaluation of the projects involved three rounds with different rubrics for each round. This event provided a platform for institute and industry iteration and also helped students to get first hand feedback from experts and researchers.Keywords
