Firms sell 'readymade projects' to engg students
Bangalore: Engineering students who need to do projects as part of their course, can now buy readymade projects that small sized software firms are selling in 'project shops', reports Shariq Iqbal of Bangalore Mirror.
Last year, Suresh Kumar (name changed), an eighth semester engineering student then, developed a software that could compress large files and store them in your computer. Impressed with his innovation, the varsity evaluators rewarded him with an A+ grade.

However according to Bangalore Mirror, three months before he submitted his project, Suresh was on the streets of Jayanagar and Kengeri searching for a ready-made project from the 'project shops' that have sprung up in these areas.
In fact, a student, on condition of anonymity said, "We resort to buying readymade projects as they are done by seasoned coders and developers. They save us the headache and constant concern of ruining our project; besides, they are more professional."
A walk down the streets of Jayanagar and Kengeri will take you through shady little rooms inviting students for readymade projects created by small-sized software companies who bank on this 'seasonal business.'
An innovative geek told Bangalore Mirror, "Buying a project might be a trend, but I think the evaluators do understand and recognize an original work. For those genuinely interested in developing something on their own, I do not think there is any dearth of recognition and appreciation."
The shopkeepers are ready to give the entire readymade project in a pendrive, as well as teach all the basics involved in the development of the particular project, and also an FAQ bank with answers. Also offered is a list of more than 80-odd projects thare available. "Choose the one you find interesting, collect all the intellectual material, check everything and pay
8,000. The price is negotiable," said a shopkeeper.
According to the Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU) Registrar K V A Balaji who Bangalore Mirror spoke to, such incidents are happening. "It has come to our notice that some students go out and get their projects done. We have also noticed that there are professional agencies which are selling projects. As it is outside our purview, we cannot take action against such companies. Hence, we have issued a circular to all colleges that students have to do projects only in colleges and not go to industries outside."

1: Studs of fianl year hav cm across
exams,campus interviews,soon.most importantly
see education system.it must changed.syallbus
of VTU won change periodically,if does so it
can b old theory subjets.
first v studs want some industrail knowledge n wat they expect frm us.introduce some more new tech labs reduce theory subjects.give 1 yr for projects.so they get time to do som new stuffs.

2: I think a full fledged final year project is
too much to expect from VTU students, a large
percentage of whom struggle even to clear
their papers within 4 years. It is
unrealistic to expect a group of 4 who barely
know to write a "Hello World" program to
develop a large application. Want to blame
some one?
Blame the education system, blame the curriculum and blame the admission process and criteria, but not the students. If they were capable, they wouldn't have gone to buy projects in the first place. It is one thing for the Vice-chancellor to lament about the condition sitting in his cozy chair, and quite another thing to see how hard students find it to do projects on their own.

3:All 7 semesters of engineering , students
try to pass there papers , and you expect
them to make a embedded /software project
in final semester , why don't give them any
knowledge of practical electronics from
beginning , look at the level of expertise
we have in Engineering Practical Labs of
our college , lecturer just makes a copy of
text book on black board , when they
themselves don't know how to apply knowledge
to practice (and most of the time their
theory is also not clear ) , don't blame
students .

ok leave it. If the student had done the project on JAVA and he get the job on testing in corporate company. the project will never useful in his life.so why should waste his time for project. Especially in software field no one can individually delop the projects with full of futures with in 6 months. in that 6 months also he have to be write the exams. With in 6 months any project will completes? that is not possible for software projects. I think dont put the projects in engg coll

5:Dear Tinku,
Please consider that the Project work is there to enhance our Practical knowledge, which can be achieved by DOING the project on our own. That knowledge cannot be transmitted via books, and any other media. Purchasing the Project from market will actually make you lazy and unaware of the joy which we get after its completion. So my friend if you wanna do stick to your job in IT, DO your project..You will not get any READY-MADE projects in your professional life..!

8: Friend please stop blaming the students. The
main reason why students go for ready made
projects because teachers of VTU have no
practical knowledge. They are just concerned
about the course that`s it. No creativity is
appreciated. If you are creative then also
they have no brains to understand that.
And not only B.E, M.Tech students are also getting the ready made projects which are developed by B.E graduates.
Please ask these teachers to get some practical knowledge and watch 3 idiots this will help.

11: I've had friends buying project from outside,
and I don't mind it, I did my project from
scratch, search for "crane ogre" in youtube
and click on the first video, this project
became so popular in youtube and yet my
evaluators were skeptical whether I did it
and if it was so, whether it had any
particular practical purpose, forget about
the well done remarks, they din't even wanna
see the entire project? So why bother to
build something from scratch which is not
even seen for a while?
I just had motivation to do something on my own and I kept going, only I know the pain I went through and I received no motivation from outside, at least this was the area I liked.
Whats sad is evaluators expect projects which are "hot and burning" if it is innovation that we bring they look outside if to find if its the cutting edge?
I don't see anything wrong in students in buying software from outside as long as Lecturers have "Whats the big deal?" attitude.

12: I think some people go outside n buy projects
b'coz they r not confident enuf that they can
develop a project on their own..... also on
top of it... theres a poor suuport and
motivation by the profs... Seriously if a
student has a good, supportive and above all
knowledgable prof.... i dont think there is
any problem for students doing project
alone... Wat really suxs is that prof is not
able to help in anything n he keeps on
pressing to do more... be more innovative...
do something new.... n wen the project
guide's duty jumps in they back offf... come
tmrw... i m busy now... we will discuss it
later.... wat is more shameful that wen the
project in case gets completed.... they ask
us to present paper with their names in the
paper... wtf... no help n just ur name!

to go..but im pretty confi..the next prj i
do..vl be a success..so guys..plss..be try to
be a genuine engg studnt..though v say india

the Engineering College by the quota system?
By writing such rubbish you are showing your ignorance. Save time, study, do your project(don't buy it) and be of some value to India.

ways that are more in sync with changed
times.
why blame students for picking up on an easier way.

if govt is making so much difference between students themselves. so what if those students can bought out a project.
aur waise bhi bhi yeh sab to common hai.
bihar mein jab log exams hi nahi dete aur btech ki degree plus reservation le kar govt sectors mein job kar sakte hein toh atleast students buying projects are at least true students and not the fake ones

19: Now days the pressure built up on the
students for performance made them to indulge
in such kind of activities. But still if
students are moving to such kind of behavior
it is not good from students point of view as
well as Institutions. If students make a
habit of this kind thing it is not good for
them also in future. At the same time
Institutes also should take care about while
framing there Insti program it should bring
the innovations & skills of the students.

20: With Respect to Prof in college should
appriciate litle thing done by Students..
Students are ready to do projects by there
own.. but they dont want to take risks in
terms of marks(score) in case of failer. So
my oppinion is if student fails to do the
project completly the part of work done by
him must me appriciated by Professors..

face these problems.

Students , pls don buy projects. Evaluators will be able to differentiate between the projects bought and those done by students. If in case he finds out that the project has been bought, he can give you a BIG 0.
Also it'll spoil your creativity and coding skills. This will affect you a lot when you join a job later.

students who get out put and not considering
the innovative idea or idea of approch,in
most of the colleges lecturers/project guides
are not in a position to help students to
resilve some of technical issue they fac
during execution of the project, students are
worried abut markes and goes out to buy
project... here entire eductaion system has
to be blammed for such projects and its

29:I tend to agree with you.
My college mentor had no idea what she should ask us to do - she told us to think of something on our own.
NO, WE DID NOT BUY ANYTHING.
Thankfully, my project partner had some contacts in a govt org and someone there suggested what problems they are having and how we can solve them. So, essentially, that real-life work became our project. But I just think we were lucky.
Out of 5 lakh engineers in India every year, even 1000 cannot get real projects. The problems are many:
1. Colleges force students to work on projects they may not have interest in. So, even if they may find a nice project for themselves, the college may force them not to work on it.
2. "Professors" are often lacking in knowledge and ideas and cannot suggest anything to work on, like it was in our case.
3. Most of the students might not have grasped many subjects during their studies, so they cannot be innovative enough in the last semester. This is because most people get into engg because of the lure of "good jobs", whatever that means. Most of them don't even know what the word "engineering" means.

In my case our Dept HOD is our project guide.
I & my partners never had intrest in DSP.
But He was pursuing Phd. in that subject.
So he rejected all our ideas calling them DUMB.
Finally wen all others were doing their projects we didnt even had the theme of our project
After completion of 1 sem he dumped a DSP based project on us & we had no option coz we hav already wasted a lot of time due to rejection of almost 9 to 10 project ideas from our guide.
So now we do neither have the knowledge nor intrest in that area but are compelled to do the same..
WHAT SHALL WE DO...
If we buy the proj that is immoral.
If we dont we wont Graduate in 2010..

u can't only blame the students for this even the lecturers and colleges are also responsible for this menace.
if the lecturers apart from giving only lectures in the class try to become practical mentors for the students and put their efforts seriously in helping students become engineers true in sense then there should be no issues.

if the lecturers apart from giving only lectures in the class try to become practical mentors for the students and put their efforts seriously in helping students become engineers true in sense then there should be no issues.

48: This buying project is not very new concept.
Now there is serious involvement of college
lecturers and staff in this buisness. It is a
good season for lecturers / small fake
companies who are just up to spoil the coming
generation of engineers. Where the hell our
country is heading ? i think this illegal
project business should be stopped instantly.

Visvesvaraya Technological University should be ashamed for not noticing the student basement of knowledge...
If readymade projects r sold for 5000, in future it will be sell for 200 to 500......then the students will look for readymade projects only.......they will not get much knowledge.

project is the basement of IT field to a student......
I request to students that do your own project without any help, not only IEEE is projects there r more application projects to do it..........

where we used finish our classes by afternoon
then working on our project till night. We
have started bit earlier as we know that
doing own projects takes time. But the
learning and experience from doing own
projects is tremondous. We do had fun also
while doing projects.

56: This is shocking! There several reasons why
students should dirty their hands doing
coding:
1. The student project is just about the *only* time the students can learn the reality of software development and get to learn a language (and other programming constructs).
2. By doing the project hands-on, the student can discover how the IT industry works
3. My firm's interview process always starts off with the student project (and not just for freshers). People who buy their projects are out in 2 minutes
4. I've seen purchased project which is riddled with errors. There is virtually no quality control in these places, and a student is opening himself for being caught out at any point in her career.

I can't say about other places, but during my engg.(not software) I did my final project with 4 of my friends and we succeed.
We got appreciation in form of attention & grade.
It is not the system that needs a change rather it is the mindset.
Let me tell you the truth; initially in our group we were 7, but two of them did not have confidence on my concept and method of doing by ourselves and left.
So you should be confident and technically sound enough to do all these...

61: KNOWLEDGE is itself a REWARD. So it is
immaterial whether we get a reward in the
form of marks or money for a project that we
do. It is an individuals decision to buy a
project or do a project. Liberalization on
the evaluation of VTU projects based on the
output can initiate students to DO a project.
Most of the students buy the project fearing
the output. If the evaluation is based on the
procedure taken up I feel this trend of
BUYING projects would come down. Hope this
conversation enlightens our juniors to DO A
PROJECT which is a qualification for an
ENGINEER.

what i saw in project evaluation is like

what i want to tell VTU is issuing circular restricting such projects won't work at all. students will not listen to such circulars... INSTEAD VTU should train its LECTURERS capable of distinguishing between real and the proj which has bought from agencies.... VTU first should take a common assessment test to LECTURERS to check their standard, then only our education system may develop......

74: This is usual phenomenon in education and
existing since last decade. This is happening
because of FAR-SIGHTEDNESS of policy makers.
With agenda that no one should fail in first
and second year evaluation process is
compromised and all non-eligible are
promoted. This stuff when in FINAL year I my
opinion cannot produce anything original,
complition of project is mandatory thus these
students are left with the option of buying
the project either from seniors or from
market.
Things like this cannot be stopped unless we have some integrated mechanism which at some stage refrains non-eligible students to proceed further or they should improve themselves.
TODAYS MAIN PROBLEM OF THE EDUCATION IS COMPLUSION TO HAVE HIGHER PASSING PERCENTAGE RATHER THAN ELIGIBLE AND INTELLIGENT PRODUCT THAT CAN BE CONSUMED BY THE INDUSTRY EASILY.

through about what students go through....
I too started off doing my project in a DRDO and know many other friends of mine who are doing it in actual IT companies...
But in college we have to cope through 4 difficult and new subjects and the teachers are not really that informative about them however they might appear to be well informed.... (do we blame the curriculum for this?)
Next, we have stuff like seminars where we are forced to go to college for 3 whole weeks and not even allowed to miss them in lieu to do our project, by threatening us that our marks will be affected....
Next our internal guides are not of any help they are so disinterested as to even take the time to listen to the student's progress in the project....
Last but not the least... I suppose all of us have gone through teacher's favoritism we have to cope through...
Now i ask is it any wonder that a student takes a readymade project that he/she is sure of getting marks or do a new project with absolutely no help and then he/she gets screwed on some mere tecnicality (like what are those colors used,related and next say in the type of project you choose just because the teacher has no idea what you have done does not mean what you have is wrong)and try to cut marks...
Hence i would like to say there is always another side for the same story don't judge students just because they bought a project sometimes its out of necessity also...

and this sem is not even of 3 months. For
past one month I have been planning on my own
project and now suddenly faculties have
assigned specific projects. And moreover the
list includes projects such as Speech
Recognition System ...Not Voice,Knowledge
Based Expert System, Face Recogniton(not
identification), Touch Screens, Visrtual
Network Implementation....
And all these are for Mini-Projects Not Final Year Projects. I do not think faculties have any idea how sophisticated these systems are but have been assigned without even looking at there feasibility and requirements. When asked for some help the answer come...Why don't you search the internet,I don't have time, I do not much about this....BUT we need to show the project. Can somebody imagine someone implementing these in 2 months...what will the student do...just go to the market and buy it. I agree that students should be told to do which may be small but must have genuine effort and may be sometimes given the freedom to build what is already there but in their own way.

I was a student and had to do the same and i
went to a place where they sold the projects
but they dint hand me over the entire project
but they helped me and it took 4 to 5 months
to complete. It may happen tht some ppl do
this kind of selling of projects but not
everyone.. and besides they also give u a

have the talent nor the interest to bend
their backs to "qualify" for their
engineering degree who resort to this. Why do
we go to the extent of buying software, the
more easy way they resort to is downloading
from the internet. Please do away with quotas
in education, give opportunities to the
really deserving, create infrastructure for

why most engineering graduates are
unemployable. Recruiters should carefully

exam paper as well. And, we, the engineers
are just doing the basics of buying ready
made projects. However, I don't promote such
ideas, but the unorganized system of
education is the reason to blame for!
If everyone studies like Aamir Khan then what about our future.. lol.
Students know how sick the education system is, the formal dress codes, the bans and unprofessional lectures are an added bonus for taking this into an worse level of education possible (exception). I, alone, cannot change this system and I don't think it's going to change anytime soon.
I am in my 2nd year of engg. education. I've transferred college and now studying in an much better environment, the point is we need to have better engg. colleges (as I've been in one of the not-so-best college) with educated lecturers and more focus on practicals and not on theories. Why do we even study 1st year of engg while we decide to take up our respective courses initially? WE are wasting the first year by studying everything, GOD DAMN Stick with the courses and not all the stuffs. Indeed, KNOWLEDGE is USEFUL but a human brain cannot digest everything!
I know my cribbing would not be seen in any of the history books, maybe, someone will read on here and get an over view that students aren't the one who are to blame. It's how this works.. if the whole system had an better environment then buying ready made projects would be out of context.
Peace and cheers! :)

92: This is stale news. Sorry for putting it so
plainly. But the truth is, the student alone
is not to blame. Lack of good lecturers who
do not encourage their students but are
always ready to condemn them is the main
reason. Take the Practicals, for instance.
The lecturers want the task to be done within
the 3 hours of lab timings. If such
enforcements exist, naturally students also

93: i am not sure how good an idea it is for
students to do projects only in college!
Getting in an industry gives good exposure
and understanding on the topic. If osmeone
genuinly does work it doesn't matter where he
does it - and if someone doesn't - then again
this rule will be bypassed.

94: The author is presenting like finding water
in mars or something. This process has been
in existence since the beginning of computer
courses, like another commenter said. but not
only for engineering courses. u can buy
electronics projects, mechanics projects and
project in any stream. And it is not only
engineering students, degree and diploma
students also do it. buying ready-made
projects is the de-facto part of curriculum
now.

95:True,I agree what Saurabh has mentioned, the
article is being presented as if its
something being discovered now!
Well,the rot has seeped into those doing Ph.d too, long back.One of my friend(who has doctorate in engineering) who before retiring from premier R& D organization joined a top ten Engineering college in Bangalore for teaching purpose.He once mentioned, after having seen how the lecturers in college obtain Doctorate, he felt ashamed to be called a fellow doctorate.The rot started from University or do we say the day politician/business man started owning up colleges and also university!
Colleges became business center (to mint money) and since(20 years back same story) long has ceased to be knowledge center.
Anyhow who takes up teaching job? Have we heard of any personality from Industry speaking of teaching students if not for entire time at least an hour in a day (of course once the retire from active position in a company) to share the knowledge that he/she gained through the success in his/her career…don't we know its those who for some reason were unlucky to get into industry.Some may say left over (though I have my reservation on such opinions as if industry has best of breed only!)Naturally most of them are there due to compulsion and not because they like it.so how does one expect best from them?
do we know of any training being imparted to those who need to teach.infact in West its norm that certain subjects, for example, management cannot be taught by person unless he/she has worked sufficiently long in industry in that position to teach it to others! And for that its not degree that matters but experience which is true fact.
Well, we know today in India MBA schools has mushroomed so much that you see every other person doing MBA…
Market is driven by demand verses supply. However,most of the time its other way round in India, the supply is always 10 times the demand be it anything. vegetable like tomato(we heard farmers throwing tomatoes on roads since the prices has fallen to level that gives no returns for their expenditure incurred) to Ph we are always over stalked

96: Ready-made project was not begun today or
yesterday. It has been selling from beginning
of the stage since computer course started in
college. students make dim their skills
& opportunity themselves.
only one thing is students are satisfied themselves at shortest way to achieve their marks. But there is no gain in future for that type of project.

97: The colleges can give the projects to
students and ask them to do in the college
but how many professors are avaiable who can
give the project and get it done mostly the
colleges are not having profs and knoledge
base is also less

98: This is really a bad thing happend in IT
Field.
this is injustice to the students who are really doing hardwork to study.
the faculty of the college should make students fail who are buing readymade projets.
i also studying B.C.A. in saurashtra university,
my friends are also buying readymade projects and faculties of saurashtra university give them 80 to 90 marks in project .

99:This is really a bad thing. even i have done
my engineering quite a long time back and
right now running a software firm. Such new
are like black spots in our it sector. If
such things are heard by our clients how are
outsourcing their work to us it will
literally hamper our work.
After reading this article I will surely make sure that my hiring team recheck the applicant project reports before hiring because i this guys can't even effort to create their own project how will they create a new innovation projects in the sector?
Thank you silicoindia for the article

This is going on for a long time. Just as in many fields there is a crisis of character and honesty it is there among some engineering students in their project work.
But who purchases project work and obtain degrees in Engineering when they go for interview for Technical jobs face the music. Especially in higher education and in acquiring jobs the project work plays a crucial role.
Some companies recruiting Engineering Graduates rely mostly on the project work done by the engineering graduates at the time of interview.
Moreover doing the project work by the student himself inculcates research methodology in him which will help in his further career.

105: Its bad on student part to buy a proj but at
the same time its the responsiblity of the
evaluators to discourage this by giving bad
marks to these stolen items.
I dont think its a big deal for a evaluator to judge if the student has actually burbt hand on the proj or not.

106: I'm also the student of B.Tech and buying
project is not only work on the big city,it
also works in small city and towns. The
student who buying the project has to shame
on him/her.They are spoiling his/her and the
COUNTRY future.Student who doing this should
realise that they are the engineers not a
normal human who find a certificate of
coputer from a rode-side computer
center.Engineers has his/her own identity.
So please don't do this and don't screw the engineering.

107: Hi
DO buying a project will be furnishing teh skills ? i don't think so .
do the system in the college will chane ? i don't think so .
do the institute will ever rasie any question from these .? no .
So what is the atleast moral of this story .
dear just be a human and genuine to urself wether not to any one but urself .
in 100 60 are into this line .. and rest 40 into CA or any other .
but still major factor is this and still we call overselfs as best .
well in short we are now trying to be pratical rather being ethical .
and mostly what is the worth of such output
15k , 20 k , max 30k for 5to 10 yrs time period ,
i would say better is to have something buisness rather wasting so much time and money .

108:The real core problem in india is lack of
practical knowleze.
Most of the time spend in theory classes and 2 to 3 hrs for practicals.The confidence of the students here goes down,when it comes to project,they dont know how to make it,so they opt for private sources.
There must be reforms in education system,I know it is no easy because one class more than 100 students,how it will be managed.HRD ministry should think about problem and bring some educational reforms in teaching of engineering structure.
Thanks

109: Dear Students,
The final year project works need the correct application of engineering and scientific principles for the specification,analysis,design and development of a "project"
irrespective of its application, size and performance.
As a Professor, I have been guiding more than 10 teams every year and we are publishing our works as International Conference or Journal papers. We are respecting the students potential and their ideas and trying to give an engineering touch.As most of you said that staff members may not be in a position to guide you as what you expected since teachers including myself are not experts in atleast one area. But we are also learning with our students. Let us grow together but dont allow others to grow in between us.There may be some faculty members who have not realized the importance of the students talent since they are also freshers. Forgive them and let us prove ourself in a small domain atleast.
We have to learn and work for ourselves including me.

110: While I agree with most of the part you have
narrated, however, the thought of "Let us
grow together but dont allow others to grow
in between us" are certainly not appreciated.
Whoever it might be, whatever be the case. We shouldn't worry about others who are growing in a way.. maybe I took it in the wrong way! Probably not...
