Quantification of the quality of Engineers is a significant parameter contributing to an Industry person in recruiting an Engineering student, a government organization in sponsoring/ funding an entrepreneurial aspect of the student and an esteemed University in granting scholarship for higher education of the student. There is a need to improve the students' technological, communication, entrepreneurial skills during the course of the Engineering education. One such pedagogical technique contributing to student's skills is the Project Based Learning (PBL). Through PBL, students learn the courses instead of merely studying it. The significance of PBL and the consequences of practicing PBL in Engineering education is portrayed in this paper. The approach of PBL practiced in Kalasalingam Academy of Research and Education is explained with a case study of one of the courses, that followed PBL pedagogy. The evaluation pattern, rubrics and the supremacy of PBL over traditional pedagogy methods is estimated.
