Invest in education, today. If there is one thing more expensive than
education, it is ignorance!
In addition to traditional, classroom teaching, Prof.Partha has initiated
several, non-traditional teaching intiatives. He believes that
teaching should be : interactive, pro-active, and
informative, and should not end with the classroom.

Dig here, if
you are looking for ideas for your internship project work.
As a gesture of goodwill, and as a matter of social responsibility, a very
limited number of students will be permitted
to work under the guidance of
Prof. Partha (Algologic Research & Solutions)
for their internship project work
(B. Tech, B.E., M.C.A. , M. Tech. -- Computer Science)
- No fee or compensation is charged by Prof. Partha
- Prof. Partha takes this matter very seriously, and expects the students,
as well as their parent
institution, to show the same level of commitment and concern. The student
will have to sign and accept a
Code of Conduct.
The parent institution will have to
give certain
assurances, formally.
Essential skills needed : Algologic
does not encourage
use of proprietary or black box products. Students will be expected
to be provably proficient in the use of open source products,
like Linux, and LaTeX. All publications, reports and theses
should
be created using LaTeX (no word-processors). The development platform
for the project and
the thesis/report will be Linux only. Just familiarity with these is
not enough. The student should be reasonably proficient in these.
Essential resources :
The student will not have to pay Algologic any fee, for guiding the
project. However, the student should :
- be sure that he/she has the necessary skills (including the
"essential skills" listed above).
- be prepared to buy some books
and journals which the guide may recommend
- prove that he/she has
easy access to the Internet, at home, or in the college (Internet cafes
are not acceptable)
We take this matter very
seriously. We expect the student and the parent institution also to be
equally serious about this.
- A list of focus areas for project
work, is available on the w-w-web, for consultation. Go through
this list and make sure you choose a subject with which you will be
comfortable. You can get in touch with Prof.
Partha if you have any doubts or queries.
- You will then prepare a project proposal, jointly in
consultation with Prof. Partha.
- This proposal, endorsed by the Head of your parent
institution, and the assurance by the institution, and the acceptance
of the code of conduct, should be sent to Prof. Partha
The project can start only after we receive your
project proposal (endorsed by your institution), your signed "code of
conduct", and the letter of commitment and assurance from the
institution (in the proforma provided).
You can download
a package containing useful material
for organising your project work. (1.9 MB). This package contains:
aboutme.txt << This file
assure.pdf << Assurance from your institution
code.pdf << Code of conduct to be signed by you
focus0.pdf /
focus0.tex << Suggested focus areas/topics for internship project.
internship.odp << How to do an internship
internship.pdf << How to do an internship
modelprop.pdf << A model for a project proposal.
prefered.pdf << Preferred LaTeX style
prefered.tex << Preferred LaTeX style
propos1.pdf << Project proposal template(rendered version,
pdf file)
propos1.tex << Project proposal template (source version,

If you are sure that you can accept the above
approach, and follow it
scrupulously, get in touch with Prof.
Partha
