Introduction

• An academic project is a representation of a real-life project, which is research-based and provides hands-on experience which enables learners to put into practice the learning and experience that they have gained while learning relevant concepts and technologies.

• Therefore, projects are crucial for providing real world experiential learning to young professionals to make them day one industry ready.

• NIIT and IBM have collaborated to provide students with academic projects based on real-world requirements sought by organizations. These academic projects have been designed by IBM experts with their vast experience in enterprise software development.

• This partnership with IBM is a continuation of NIIT's endeavour to give students an edge through industry relevant training.

• Projects are needed for end-to-end learning of students.

• Projects provide students exposure to all the stages of SDLC, such as:

• Requirement gathering

• Application design

• Development

• Application testing

• Bug fixing

• Performance optimization

• IBM projects are developed in IBM Software Labs by industry experts

• NIIT and IBM partnership helps fulfill the academic need of the student

Duration : 264 hours

• Fresher’s enrolled through NIIT will undergo a program on application development on the Java platform and the IBM’s bridge module, which will provide necessary skills and knowledge on tools and technologies to start the IBM CE Projects.

Tools and Technologies to be used:

1. UML diagrams using Rational RSA7.5

2. Developing, testing, deploying Web applications using Rad 7.5, Web-Sphere Application Server tool-kit which serves dual purpose i.e. as an IDE as well as an application server

3. Database Management using DB2 9.5

• After completing this course, the learner acquires the necessary knowledge and skills required for designing, developing, and deploying Web applications using IBM Rational tools.

• Students will form groups and a Project report is submitted by a group in the form of one document.

• The students will use the standard Project Template and submit their project documentation for evaluation.

• Please find below the breakup of marks/weightage :

Level 1:

Level 2:

• The total weightage for 1st two evaluations is 70% and student should score above 45 (in the first 2 evaluations) to clear the assessment. These evaluations will be conducted in the 17th and 21st week respectively.

• In case student scores less than 60%, he/she will be provided with an NIIT transcript ONLY.

• In case student scores 60% or more, he is awarded an IBM Project Completion Certificate along with the transcript.
