In my opinion, the teaching staff should give preference to research projects as a parameter for passing the course. My rationale is, that a research project brings students hands-on experience in the practical scenario of the problems going on in the market and would prepare us for the jobs once we pass out.
Additionally
, a capstone project planned in group settings allows students to form teams and brings innovative ideas to the table.
Moreover
, it helps to understand and overcome the challenges that are likely to encounter
while
 working in the field.
Besides
, a final exam only evaluates the theoretical knowledge of the student, which only covers the existing theories and not the possibilities of future scenarios.
Finally
, I would strongly suggest the concerned staff consider a research project over the final exam as a deciding parameter for a student to pass the course.
However
, students should
also
 be evaluated on the theoretical concepts, for that, the faculty can design the course delivery with a few theoretical exams like a midterm or a bi-weekly exam.
