Note: Final Reports must be checked in the plagiarism detect software like
TURNITIN.COM available in the Library. Passwords and IDs for the software are available with
the Librarian. All students will be submitting a report of the software along with the report.
Papers without the report will result in deduction of 3 points.
The final presentation is due in the last 3 weeks of the class. Students will present their
projects using MS Power Point for their presentations/or any other tool / technique to convince
the audience (it is strongly advised that all tools should be tested well before the class
presentation to avoid unnecessary delay due to tech issues). Each student will be given 10-15
minutes to complete their presentation and 5 minutes for the class to ask questions about the
presentation. Presentation sessions may be little longer than the usual class time. If we are not
able to complete all the presentations within the scheduled classes, extra classes will be arranged.
Instructor wishes you every success and hope you would enjoy the course and find it
something that has made you worthy of market as a young researcher, consultant or middle
manager.
