RESPONSIBILITIES OF FACULTY GUIDE AND COMPANY GUIDE

1. Prior to reporting to the SIP organization, the Faculty Guide should brief the students in detail about the SIP.

2. The Faculty Guide should facilitate the student to undertake a meaningful project, provide necessary
academic guidance and facilitate evaluation with the help of the company executives.

3. The faculty is required to explain to all the executives he/she is interacting in the SIP organization, the basic
tenets and features of the SIP and the importance attached to it.

4. During this period of 8 weeks the Faculty Guide has the entire responsibility of the student’s performance. It
is therefore necessary that faculty meet the students to periodically monitor their work. During the
interaction with students, the students are to be informed about their performance, progress, strengths and
weaknesses as observed through the various evaluation components and also the ways for improvement and
to offer clarifications sought by students.

5. Faculty is advised to ensure that the student discusses the progress made and seek clarification of any
doubts related to work with the Company Guide experts.

6. Faculty Guide should interact with the Company experts regularly. This exercise is initially to chalk out an
effective interaction plan and later to know about the student’s progress in relation to the quality and
quantity of work put in by the student. The exercise helps in continuous monitoring and guiding the student
in the assigned work.

7. The Faculty Guide should be involved at all stages beginning from the ‘definition of the work content’ to
the project completion.
8. Faculty Guide should advise the students to complete the project within the stipulated time. A student who
does not give opportunity for evaluation should be given a warning at each stage of evaluation as required.
9. Faculty Guide will submit a progress report to HOI at every stage of evaluation, showing the progress made
by the students allocated to him/her during SIP. The Faculty Guide will also mention the action
taken/suggested by him/her for those students whose progress in project is not satisfactory.

10. On completion of evaluation the Faculty Guide will submit a list of marks (not to be disclosed to students)
to HOI.

sentences with strong, enthusiastic, and proactive language. Executive summary should be written in simple,
short sentences intended to be read by an executive. The executive summary should briefly outline the below
mentioned points.

Points to be covered:

 Student Information

 Organization Description: Concept, Industry Type, Name Address

 Title of the project

 Objective of the project

 Background

 Methodology used

 Findings & Conclusion
