Abstract

In IT world, millions of software projects have been initiated, being developed and deployed every year. Almost billion dollars are invested for successful and useful software’s. But many of these projects are not able to satisfy user’s need. Many of them are not being delivered as per the allotted budget and schedule due to lack of project management standards. Especially in CS and IT education system of central India, academic projects are not evaluated on these grounds. In this paper, we focus on the study of quality and success of academic projects, and investigating the various approaches of project monitoring and management for developing usable software. The paper puts deep insight towards existing approaches in practice and opens scope for analysis of academic CS projects in Indore districts near future.
