final year Project topics
BE or B Tech final year project normally decides a student’s specialization area in a higher study like ME/Ph.D. or job. During the final year project, students get an opportunity to work in a group so that they can learn leadership, teamwork, and collective efforts. One will get a chance to revise or use your complete syllabus during the project work and this will help in your GATE examinations.

Final year engineering project

We frequently get stuck and do not know what should be the project topic and how it will be helpful in the future. One can choose the final year project topic based on the following points

Personal interest in the subject:

You cannot do well in your final year project work if you are not enjoying it and one can only enjoy the work when he/she has an interest in it. So, carefully decide the area of your project work i.e.

  • Machine Design (Involves design of machine elements)
  • Thermal Engineering (Involves thermal interactions between systems)
  • Manufacturing Science (Involves manufacturing of machine elements)
  • Other (Includes Industrial engineering and related matters)
You can cultivate an interest in a particular field provided you are serious about it.

Availability of resources:

You need to make sure about what resources are available with you or with your college/department and what is to be needed for your project work. What are the software skills, and the material needed? It would help if you had a habit of reading books related to your subject area. One should also read technical books to sharpen your basics which will help in project work. 

Costing during project fabrication or preparation:

One of the most important factors in doing the project is money. If you do not have sufficient funds, you need to compromise the work and its quality. Meet with your college authorities about the cost and find a way to tackle it. Also, fabrication work involves the use of software like AutoCAD, ProEngineer, or any other 2D/3D modeling software. You also need to learn important software used by Mechanical engineers.

Guide or Supervisor: 

This is one of the most critical points while doing the project because you will be given the right path by your guide, he/she will direct you to what is right and what is not based on your experience. Have a positive and friendly relationship with your guide and that does not mean you can treat him/her like a friend. Maintain the distance and give respect to them.

  1. Good morning Sir,
    This is Amit Kumar,I need to do project by the end of june 2013. I request you to suggest me one topic. I subject of interest are IC engines and manufacturing technology.
    Manufacturing technology is first priority.
    Thanking you,

  2. You can make project which is related to
    1. Flow(Fuel+air or exhaust gas) analysis for IC engine or
    2. FEA analysis of connecting rod, piston. Or
    3. Design of suspension for automobile.
    4. You can prepare test rig for automobile as secondary standard.

  3. 1. First decide in which area you are preferring for project work? is it heat exchanger, boiler, economizer, heat transfer coefficient, energy etc.
    2. Once you determine the specialization, you can search for the research paper on sciencedirect and get the papers related to your area.
    3. Do literature review and decide what is left by researchers.

  4. There is nothing like so and so project will help you in cement industry. I have worked as GET for one year in Saurashtra Cement Ltd. There no criteria about project. You just need to clear your basics!! Nothing else. Everything will follow on its own!

  5. There are no hard and fast rule that if you do so and so project you will get cement industry! It does not matter which project you taken in your graduation. Only knowledge about your project is really matter. You should choose those topics in which you are having interest and have scope for further study or research or any job. You can do your project in cement industry by permission of your head of dept. You can do it.

  6. sir, i want to do my final year project in design can u give a list of projects that i can do where i should be able to do analysis and design of the product

    and also anything related to industrial…

  7. You can study and improve the existing design of automatic gear transmission system, suspension system for racing cars and even come out with some innovative ideas which helps you to file a patent….Just think of every details of project at hand and you will get idea…Thinking does the work.

  8. Sir this is SANDEEP and I need mtech design engineering projects can u please provide some information about the organization that help in doing project and also those projects must be approved by the university since it is verified by plagiarism software

  9. Sir am skills final year mechanical student.I would like to do industrial project as my final year project.I got a cement industry but I don't know what are the projects related to mechanical there.so pls help me to select an appropriate topic

  10. Hi sir
    I am nithin mech I want best project topic related manufactur nd production in cements because I have completed internship there so it could help me more so please suggest me a good topic

  11. Cement industry falls in category of process industry type. You cannot do much related manufacturing and production related work in cement industry. Rather you can do energy audit related projects in such type of process industry which could help them identify the probable energy saving ideas on a particular field.
