EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF AITS
Annamacharya Institute of Technology & Sciences (Autonomous), a selffinancing Institute approved by the AICTE, New Delhi and affiliated with Jawaharlal
Nehru Technological University Anantapur, Anantapur is located in the town
Rajampet, which is close to Tallapaka, the Birth place of great poet Annamacharya,
who wrote 32 thousand keerthanas. The institute started with four branches of
undergraduate courses sixteen years ago, and has grown to a multidisciplinary
institution with six UG and eleven PG Courses, and one PhD programme.
Importantly, with the direction from the well-known Educationist and Industrialist, Sri
Choppa Gangi Reddy, Chairman, Governing Body, AITS and renowned industrialists
and educationalists as members in the Institute Governing body, the growth of the
Institute has been well planned to excel and aimed to meet the specific needs of
industry and the growing academic interests of the student community.
The strategic planning to improve the quality of education and Research &
Development and Innovation using various objectives is based on the Strength
Weakness Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) Analysis. The SWOC analysis was
performed in a population of all the stakeholders such as students, parents, faculty,
administrators, and human resource personnel from the industries. Moreover, alumni,
external peer groups of the various faculties in the University Inspection teams,
AICTE NBA inspection teams, and UGC inspection teams have provided SWOC
analyses. These analyses highlighted similar attributes such as the strengths in
curricular, co-curricular and extra- curricular areas in the undergraduate educational
system of the Institute. Specifically, the attributes like 80-90% graduation rate with
approximately 50% having distinction, >65% placement for all the eligible graduating
students and more than 50% students, who have opted to go for higher education
programme, enroll in foreign universities reflect the existence of a high-quality
undergraduate programme in the AITS. These are the unique selling points of the
Institute as well.
These characteristics of this institute have aligned with the mission of the institute,
which states offering excellent engineering education to men and women at
undergraduate and post-graduate levels.

CRITERION II

Teaching-Learning and Evaluation

Strategies adopted for facilitating Slow Learners:


For every 30 students, 5~10 are usually found to be slow learners. The faculty
counselor assesses the nature of their problem. Students with psychological /
emotional problems are then motivated in a friendly way to reach their academic
goals.
Remedial classes are organized to clarify doubts, re-explaining of critical topics
for improving performance. Poor performance due to frequent absenteeism is dealt
by sending SMS and registered letters to the parents of such students. Appropriate
counseling with additional teaching, eventually helps to attend classes regularly.
All the staff members maintain good relation with students and deal with their
problems in a gentle manner. Each class is divided into a batch of 15~20 students
and separate tutorial classes are conducted to all students for all branches of
Undergraduate courses. Generally, one teacher is assigned for each batch.

To solve problems related to the subjects

To give better counseling for slow learners

To give better ideas for advanced students

To discuss any special topics related to particular subject

To give ideas and guide in mini projects and in preparing papers

To enhance the effectiveness of learning, tutorials are conducted in two ways:

Slow learners, not able to manage with the teaching in regular classes, are
assisted through clarification of their doubts, revising important concepts
and extra assignments to strengthen their learning.

All the faculty members are engaged in the tutorials. The Head of the
department allots 15~20 students for every staff member, and monitors the
effectiveness of the tutorials.

2.2.5 How does the institution identify and respond to the learning needs of
advanced learners?
In AITS, advance learners are identified through their performance in
examinations, interaction in class room and laboratory, their fundamental
knowledge, concept understanding and articulation abilities etc. The Institute
promotes independent learning that contributes to their academic and personal
growth.

Examination interacts with students every semester to get feedback from


students and also clarifies any doubts regarding the examination process.

2.5.2 What are the major evaluation reforms initiated by the College and to
what extent have they been implemented in the College? Cite a few
examples which have positively impacted the evaluation management
system?
In each subject, offered in the semester, one or two sets of question
papers are set from both internal and external paper setters. One set of
question paper is set by the faculty members teaching the subject and one
set of question paper is set by the external paper setter from other
institution, who is a subject expert. The paper setters also provide the
scheme for evaluation and solutions to the questions. This process
eliminates the possibility of ambiguity and mistakes in the question paper.

The scheme and solutions provided by the paper setter is discussed


before the evaluation process is carried out. This brings about
uniformity in the evaluation process. While the process is under
progress, the moderators hold discussion with evaluators. This
provides continuous monitoring of process and alleviates errors in the
evaluation process.

The evaluation process is carried out by both internal and external


examiners. The external examiner, who is a subject expert from other
institution, moderates the evaluated answer books by the internal
evaluator. This process of moderation carried out by the external
faculty enhances the credibility of the evaluation process.

The schedule for evaluation is intimated to all the faculty members in


advance and results are announced as scheduled. This helps in
managing and completing the evaluation process as per schedule.

The evaluated answer books are checked by the coordinators for any
mistakes or errors in entering marks or totaling of marks.

The above mentioned procedure is same even for all the PG


programmes at this institute.

their research activities by national / international agencies (UGCSAP, CAS, DST-FIST; DBT, ICSSR, ICHR, ICPR, etc.) and what is
the quantum of assistance received? Mention any two significant
outcomes or breakthrough due to such recognition.
The department of Electronics and Communication Engineering was awarded
the RPS research grant by the AICTE, New Delhi during the year 2011-12 A
total amount of Rs. 11, 30,000 was received.
Outcome:
Modern functional imaging with its unique capability of extracting
quantitative information involves in complex dynamic process for
assessing human brain function and to derive accurate functional images
based on parameter estimation and process modeling so a dynamic
modeling approach is proposed for medical and non-medical imaging
modalities.
The research work focuses on back projection and ordered subsets
expectation-maximization

(OSEM)

techniques

based

on

image

reconstruction. Noise and blur are the two important factors that corrupt
the data and make image reconstruction a challenging task. Further,
improved image quality is a necessary requirement from reconstructed
images. The medical image analysis is concerned about obtaining medical
images consisting of pure noise free data and dynamic extraction of
quantitative information from medical images. So, a new modeling based
image reconstruction technique is proposed to analyze data overcoming
the aforesaid drawbacks

7.3 Best Practices


7.3.1 Give details of any two best practices which have contributed to better
academic and administrative functioning of the College.
Format for Presentation of Best Practices
Title of the practice: Student Mentoring/Counseling System
Objectives of the practice
The mentoring system assigns a faculty member to every student; the
faculty member is called the mentor for the student. The mentor plays the
role of a personal mentor for the student in all matters. For the institute, the
mentor is the first point of reference for all matters concerning any specific
student. The mentor guides the student at every step of their stay at the
institute to be successful at whatever the student takes up. The mentor
personally ensures that the student is aware of all the resources available to
the student during their course of study at the institute. The mentor is
available to counsel the student in any matter of concern apart from the
curriculum also.
The context
The student mentoring system is relatively new in general to a student
entering the institute. The students do take some time to familiarize and feel
more comfortable with their mentors and most importantly develop
confidence in them. The students meet their mentors to consult them
regarding the courses to take and to guide them through the registration
process. The students then meet their mentors before every internal
assessment to update them on their progress in every course; the students
also see their mentor after the internal assessments to discuss their
performance and the scope for improvement next time and the steps to be
taken to achieve on the same. The students might also choose to meet their
mentor more regularly for advice regarding matters which may be extra- or
co-curricular or otherwise. In addition, the mentor might also choose to see
any student with more regularity when their academic performance concerns
the mentor.

171 | P a g e
Annamacharya Institute of Technology & Sciences (Autonomous), Rajampet

CRITERION VII

Innovation and Best Practices

The practice
A mentor is a personal mentor and counselor for a student during the
duration of stay at the institute. A mentor represents a parent away from
home for a student, and is the first point of reference for the activities of a
student during the complete course of study at the institute. As soon as a
student enters into the institute, a faculty member is assigned to take over
the role of a mentor for the student. The mentor not only guides the student
in academic matters but also in any matter of concern for the student. The
student seeks the advice of the mentor at every step of their course of study
beginning from the registration for courses at the start of every semester. The
students meet their mentors regularly.
However, depending on the need the mentor conducts more meetings
with the concerned students and their parents. The mentor educates the
student about the various course requirements, such as the mandated
minimum and maximum course load every semester, and how to choose
electives. The mentor helps the student channel their interests and energies
effectively during the complete course of study at the institute. The students
meet their mentor for various reasons; some students would like extra help
with the material in a course and are shy to approach a new instructor
assigned to the course; a few might be facing problems adjusting to the new
environment may be in the hostel or at other places around the institute;
some others would like to know about their options of availing various
resources at the institute and participating in various extra-curricular
activities like joining a debate club at the institute; group students would like
to know about their options for going through internships during the break
or even the benefits of the same; a few may want to do some minor project
work or participate in various competitions in addition to their courses; some
others might want to know their options after graduation and how to figure
out where they would fit in better. At times the students might just need
someone who can give them personal time and attention by listening to their
struggles while transitioning from high school to a higher education
environment and finally in becoming a constructive member of society.
Evidence of success
The most important evidence of success for the mentoring system is
from the testimonials of the end-users. The students and their parents have
been very happy with the mentoring system. Generally, for the complete
duration of the course of study of a student any one faculty member has

172 | P a g e
Annamacharya Institute of Technology & Sciences (Autonomous), Rajampet

CRITERION VII

Innovation and Best Practices

been effective in assuming the role of a mentor. The behavior of the students
on the campus in general has witnessed a tremendous improvement and the
students are much happier and contended with their course of study at the
institute after the implementation of the mentoring system. The pass
percentage and the average academic performance of the students have also
achieved greater heights with the mentoring system. Some students have
presented themselves as quite a challenge for their mentors, but they figure
out their priorities and start performing better after counseling sessions with
their mentors. The students have been at most risk during their initial stages
in the course of study. The transition from a high school environment to a
higher education set-up proves to be too sudden for some students. The
mentoring system has addressed the needs of the students and effectively
nurtured many students during the duration of its implementation.
Problems encountered and resources required
Despite our best efforts in the effective implementation of the mentoring
system, there are still a small percentage of students who discontinue their
course of study at the institute. The percentage of drop-outs did reduce
greatly after implementing the system, but still present. Some students have
required a great deal of time and effort from their mentors but shined after
words. However, the depression that a small percentage of students went
through was too critical for us to handle. We are planning to establish a
center with professional counselors.

Title of the Practice: To enhance research potential of faculty


members.
Goal
The aim of this particular practice is to provide necessary infrastructure,
human resources and motivation to nurture the research competencies
among the faculty members.
The Context
The institute offers 6 UG and 11 PG degree programme in various
engineering departments. It is the responsibility of faculty members to
inculcate effective learning methodology in their students to understand
various engineering concepts. To accomplish this, they need to be creative
and innovative in their approach to teaching / learning activities and should

173 | P a g e
Annamacharya Institute of Technology & Sciences (Autonomous), Rajampet

CRITERION VII

Innovation and Best Practices

possess holistic idea about the subjects what they teach, which requires
some level of research competencies in the teaching faculty members.
The Practice
The InstitutionIndustry interaction cell has been established. The
institution encourages the faculty members to publish the research papers,
attending national/ International conferences and to carry out consultancy
work. The faculty members are encouraged by providing the cash incentive to
those who publish research articles in national/international journals. They
were

sponsored

to

attend

the

national/international

conferences

in

India/Abroad. The cash incentives are provided to those faculty members


who are doing the consultancy work based on the amount and nature of
work. As many as 4~5 MoUs have been signed between the institution and
various industries to carry out the research and consultancy activities.
Evidence of Success
The number of Ph.D., degree holder in the institution has been increased
considerably. The results of above said practice increases the number of
papers published by the faculty members. A lot of research projects have
been sanctioned to our institution for doing the research by the faculty
members.
Problem Encountered and Resources required
The staff members are finding it difficult to find the time to carry out this
type of activities due to their academic commitment. Quarters are in
proposal, to encourage the staff members to stay in the campus to carry out
the research activities. Laboratories, e-learning facility and computer aided
packages are required for which contribution from the Management and
money collected from sponsoring institution have been used.

program(s)? If so, give the methodology.


Opinions and suggestions from Employers, Alumni and Industries are obtained. Interaction
with professors of IITs, NITs and Research Centers.

All the inputs given by stakeholders are placed in the BOS. These suggestions are considered
when framing the curriculum and syllabi for a new programme and are placed before
Academic Council for approval with or without modification.

30.

Does the department obtain feedback from

a. Faculty on curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation? If yes, how does the


department utilize it?
The process for curriculum design, evaluation and updation of the syllabi are
standardized. The department has initiated the process of formally surveying the requirements
of the stakeholders of its engineering programme through well designed survey instruments.
The survey would be conducted once in a year. The analysis of their responses has aided
substantially to take fresh look at the syllabi and fine-tune it to closely meet the requirements
of the stakeholders.
When the faculty specialized in a subject perceives a need for modification of the syllabi
in his/her course due to his/her interaction with various stake holders, he/she is expected to
put forth the details of what is being proposed for modification, to what modified form, and
why is it being done. The proposals with proper and sufficient justification are deliberated in
the Board of Studies before accepted for inclusion in the syllabi. The rich experience of
Board members, coupled with their comprehensive knowledge of contemporary economic,
technological, and social issues has been a great asset to bank on while revising the syllabi.
b. Students on staff, curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation and what is the
response of the department to the same?
1. Student feedback on staff is taken at the end of each semester. The feedback
questionnaire is scientifically designed. Based on the responses of the students the
Faculty Competence Index (FCI) is calculated. The result of the survey is
discussed with the concerned faculty member by the HOD with regards to the
pace of delivery of course, the use of teaching aids, punctuality, role playing,
questions posed to students, clarifying student doubts, demonstrating case studies
etc. The faculty with FCI<70% will be counseled by the HOD and Principal and
measures will be initiated to improve the performance.

2. On Curriculum: Mid-term feed-back regarding curriculum is obtained from the


189 | P a g e

PART-E

students. The same is analyzed in BOS meeting and if necessary, changes are
made in the syllabus.
3. On Teaching learning process:
Course end survey On completion of a course, the students express their level of
understanding of the course through responding to a questionnaire. A scientifically designed
questionnaire will be administered on line to the students wherein they key- in their
responses. These responses are analyzed and the results are tabulated. This is used as a basis
for further improvement of teaching learning process.
Graduate survey A survey is conducted after the eighth semester to assess students
satisfaction, wherein the feedback is obtained regarding the teaching-learning process,
teaching aids, laboratory facilities and other infrastructure facilities. The results of the survey
are tabulated and students satisfaction is calculated. Remedial actions are taken for the
programmes whose student satisfaction index fall below the prescribed value
c. Alumni and employers on the programmes and what is the response of the
department to the same?
Alumni Survey It is found that many of the alumni are pursuing higher education in India.
Also, many of them have occupied key positions in multi-national companies. The alumni
survey is conducted through the survey questionnaire at the end of graduation to obtain
feedback about readiness for the job. After three years of their graduation, another survey is
conducted to obtain their feedback on the achievement of program objectives. This survey is
conducted by phone calls, emails, social networking sites (eg. face-book) and through
personal contacts.
The results from the above feedbacks are analyzed and discussed in the department meetings.
Any necessary improvements in the curriculum, teaching-learning process, upgradation of the
faculty & facilities, etc. are taken care

30. Does the department obtain feedback from


a.

Faculty on curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation? If yes, how


does the department utilize it?

The process for curriculum design, evaluation and updation of the syllabi are
standardized. The department has initiated the process of formally surveying the
requirements of the stakeholders of its engineering programme through well designed
survey instruments. The survey would be conducted once in a year. The analysis of
their responses has aided substantially to take fresh look at the syllabi and fine-tune it
to closely meet the requirements of the stakeholders.
When the faculty specialized in a subject perceives a need for modification of the
syllabi in his/her course due to his/her interaction with various stake holders, he/she is
expected to put forth the details of what is being proposed for modification, to what
modified form, and why is it being done. The proposals with proper and sufficient
justification are deliberated in the Board of Studies before accepted for inclusion in
the syllabi. The rich experience of Board members, coupled with their comprehensive
knowledge of contemporary economic, technological, and social issues has been a
great asset to bank on while revising the syllabi.
b.

Students on staff, curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation and


what is the response of the department to the same?
1. Student feedback on staff is taken at the end of each semester. The feedback
questionnaire is scientifically designed. Based on the responses of the students the
Faculty Competence Index (FCI) is calculated. The result of the survey is
discussed with the concerned faculty member by the HOD with regards to the
pace of delivery of course, the use of teaching aids, punctuality, role playing,

questions posed to students, clarifying student doubts, demonstrating case studies


etc. The faculty with FCI<70% will be counseled by the HOD and Principal and
measures will be initiated to improve the performance.

2. On Curriculum: Mid-term feed-back regarding curriculum is obtained from


the students. The same is analyzed in BOS meeting and if necessary, changes are
made in the syllabus.
3. On Teaching learning process:

Course end survey On completion of a course, the students express their level of
understanding of the course through responding to a questionnaire. A scientifically
designed questionnaire will be administered on line to the students wherein they keyin their responses. These responses are analyzed and the results are tabulated. This is
used as a basis for further improvement of teaching learning process.

Graduate survey A survey is conducted after the eighth semester to assess


students satisfaction, wherein the feedback is obtained regarding the teachinglearning process, teaching aids, laboratory facilities and other infrastructure facilities.
The results of the survey are tabulated and students satisfaction is calculated.
Remedial actions are taken for the programmes whose student satisfaction index fall
below the prescribed value
c.

Alumni and employers on the programmes and what is the response of the
department to the same?

Alumni Survey It is found that many of the alumni are pursuing higher education in
India. Also, many of them have occupied key positions in multi-national companies.
The alumni survey is conducted through the survey questionnaire at the end of
graduation to obtain feedback about readiness for the job. After three years of their
graduation, another survey is conducted to obtain their feedback on the achievement
of program objectives. This survey is conducted by phone calls, emails, social
networking sites (eg. face-book) and through personal contacts.

The analysis of their responses has aided substantially to take fresh look at the
syllabi and fine-tune it to closely meet the requirements of the stakeholders.
When the faculty specialized in a subject perceives a need for modification of the
syllabi in his/her course due to his/her interaction with various stake holders,
he/she is expected to put forth the details of what is being proposed for
modification, to what modified form, and why is it being done. The proposals
with proper and sufficient justification are deliberated in the Board of Studies
before accepted for inclusion in the syllabi. The rich experience of Board
members, coupled with their comprehensive knowledge of contemporary
economic, technological, and social issues has been a great asset to bank on
while revising the syllabi.

b.

Students on staff, curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation and what


is the response of the department to the same?

1. Student feedback on staff is taken at the end of each semester. The


feedback questionnaire is scientifically designed. Based on the responses of
the students the Faculty Competence Index (FCI) is calculated. The result of
the survey is discussed with the concerned faculty member by the HOD with
regards to the pace of delivery of course, the use of teaching aids,
punctuality, role playing, questions posed to students, clarifying student

doubts, demonstrating case studies etc. The faculty with FCI<70% will be
counseled by the HOD and Principal and measures will be initiated to
improve the performance.
2. On Curriculum: Mid-term feed-back regarding curriculum is obtained from
the students. The same is analyzed in BOS meeting and if necessary,
changes are made in the syllabus.
3. On Teaching learning process
Course end survey On completion of a course, the students express their
level of understanding of the course through responding to a questionnaire.
A scientifically designed questionnaire will be administered on line to the
students wherein they key- in their responses. These responses are analyzed
and the results are tabulated. This is used as a basis for further
improvement of teaching learning process.
Exit survey A survey is conducted after the eighth semester to assess
students satisfaction, wherein the feedback is obtained regarding the
teaching-learning process, teaching aids, laboratory facilities and other
infrastructure facilities. The results of the survey are tabulated and students
satisfaction is calculated. Remedial actions are taken for the programmes
whose student satisfaction index fall below the prescribed value.

c.

Alumni and employers on the programmes and what is the response of the
department to the same?

Alumni Survey It is found that many of the alumni are pursuing higher
education in India. Also, many of them have occupied key positions in multinational companies. The alumni survey is conducted through the survey
questionnaire at the end of graduation to obtain feedback about readiness for
the job. After three years of their graduation, another survey is conducted to
obtain their feedback on the achievement of program objectives. This survey is
conducted by phone calls, emails, social networking sites (eg. face-book) and
through personal contacts. The results from the above feedbacks are analyzed
and discussed in the department meetings. Any necessary improvements in the
curriculum, teaching-learning process, up gradation of the faculty & facilities,
etc. are taken care.

Yes. As per institutional norms new programs will be developed.
30. Does the department obtain feedback from
a. Faculty on curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation? If
yes, how does the department utilize it?
The process for curriculum design, evaluation and updation of the syllabi are
standardized. The department has initiated the process of formally surveying
the requirements of the stakeholders of its engineering programme through
well designed survey instruments. The survey would be conducted once in a
year. The analysis of their responses has aided substantially to take fresh look
at the syllabi and fine-tune it to closely meet the requirements of the
stakeholders.
When the faculty specialized in a subject perceives a need for modification of
the syllabi in his/her course due to his/her interaction with various stake
holders, he/she is expected to put forth the details of what is being proposed
for modification, to what modified form, and why is it being done. The
proposals with proper and sufficient justification are deliberated in the Board
of Studies before accepted for inclusion in the syllabi. The rich experience of

b. Students on staff, curriculum as well as teaching-learningevaluation and what is the response of the department to the
same?
Student feedback on staff is taken at the end of each semester. The feedback
questionnaire is scientifically designed. Based on the responses of the students
the Faculty Competence Index (FCI) is calculated. The result of the survey is
discussed with the concerned faculty member by the HOD with regards to the
pace of delivery of course, the use of teaching aids, punctuality, role playing,
questions posed to students, clarifying student doubts, demonstrating case
studies etc. The faculty with FCI<70% will be counseled by the HOD and
Principal and measures will be initiated to improve the performance.

On Curriculum: Mid-term feed-back regarding curriculum is obtained from the


students. The same is analyzed in BOS meeting and if necessary, changes are
made in the syllabus.
On Teaching learning process:
Course end survey On completion of a course, the students express their
level of understanding of the course through responding to a questionnaire. A
scientifically designed questionnaire will be administered on line to the
students wherein they key- in their responses. These responses are analyzed
and the results are tabulated. This is used as a basis for further improvement of
teaching learning process.

Graduate survey A survey is conducted after the eighth semester to assess


students satisfaction, wherein the feedback is obtained regarding the teachinglearning process, teaching aids, laboratory facilities and other infrastructure
facilities. The results of the survey are tabulated and students satisfaction is
calculated. Remedial actions are taken for the programmes whose student
satisfaction index fall below the prescribed value

c. Alumni and employers on the programmes and what is the


response of the department to the same?
Alumni Survey It is found that many of the alumni are pursuing higher
education in India. Also, many of them have occupied key positions in multinational companies. The alumni survey is conducted through the survey
questionnaire at the end of graduation to obtain feedback about readiness for
the job. After three years of their graduation, another survey is conducted to
obtain their feedback on the achievement of program objectives. This survey is
conducted by phone calls, emails, social networking sites (eg. face-book) and
through personal contacts.
The results from the above feedbacks are analyzed and discussed in the
department meetings. Any necessary improvements in the curriculum,
teaching-learning process, upgradation of the faculty & facilities, etc. are

List the teaching methods adopted by the faculty for different programmes.

Classroom teaching Some of the Classroom teaching methods adopted to enhance


best of the practices and help students to derive the best of the learning from their
programmes and courses are:
Lectures and Tutorials
The lectures conducted for every course are there to infuse and develop in the
students the analytical, conceptual, presentation, communication and application
oriented skills. The class rooms and lecture halls are well equipped with modern
teaching aids like multimedia projectors and computers with internet connectivity
which help to make teaching more interesting and interactive for students. The
simulated teaching software helps the student to understand the process in highly
visualized form. Tutorials are the small group teaching methods that give
opportunities to the students to talk about material being taught ask questions and
discuss material with their classmates and a designated tutor in a smaller group.
The students are free to ask any questions cropping up in their minds while
listening to lectures and attending tutorials and the teachers make sure to answer
them in the best way understood by the students.
Practical
The practical sessions are ideal testing grounds for students to apply and test the
concepts taught. Modern laboratories and workshops are an integral part of the
department. Department maintains its specialized labs, well equipped with modern
equipment of industrial standards

Presentations, Demonstration of Models, Equipment and Processes


The Department understands that the future professionals need to be well versed in
every minute aspect of corporate world. With the concern to develop clarity of
thought and confidence for addressing the public, along with other presentation
skills in the students, an activity is devised where the students give presentations
during their class hours. A date-wise schedule of the topics to be presented by the
students is prepared by the teachers, so that the students can prepare their topics
well on time.

Projects
The Projects are done by a group of students and are intended to be intensive,
active learning projects, requiring significant effort in planning and implementation
as well as preparation of a substantial final written work product. The group

Does the department obtain feedback from


a.

Faculty on curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation? If yes,


how does the department utilize it?

The process for curriculum design, evaluation and updating of the syllabi are
standardized. The department has initiated the process of formally surveying
the requirements of the stakeholders of its engineering programme through
well designed survey instruments. The survey would be conducted once in a
year. The analysis of their responses has aided substantially to take fresh look
at the syllabi and fine-tune it to closely meet the requirements of the
stakeholders. When the faculty specialized in a subject perceives a need for
modification of the syllabi in his/her course due to his/her interaction with
various stake holders, he/she is expected to put forth the details of what is
being proposed for modification, to what modified form, and why is it being
done. The proposals with proper and sufficient justification are deliberated in
the Board of Studies before accepted for inclusion in the syllabi. The rich
experience of Board members, coupled with their comprehensive knowledge
of contemporary economic, technological, and social issues has been a great
asset to bank on while revising the syllabi.
b.

Students on staff, curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation


and what is the response of the department to the same?

1. Student feedback on staff is taken at the end of each semester. The


feedback questionnaire is scientifically designed. Based on the responses
of the students the Faculty Competence Index (FCI) is calculated. The
result of the survey is discussed with the concerned faculty member by the
HOD with regards to the pace of delivery of course, the use of teaching
aids, punctuality, role playing, questions posed to students, clarifying
student doubts, demonstrating case studies etc. The faculty with FCI<70%
will be counseled by the HOD and Principal and measures will be initiated
to improve the performance.

PART-E

2. On Curriculum: Mid-term feed-back regarding curriculum is obtained


from the students. The same is analyzed in BOS meeting and if necessary,
changes are made in the syllabus.
3. On Teaching learning process
Course end survey On completion of a course, the students express
their level of understanding of the course through responding to a
questionnaire. A scientifically designed questionnaire will be administered
on line to the students wherein they key- in their responses. These
responses are analyzed and the results are tabulated. This is used as a basis
for further improvement of teaching learning process.
Exit survey A survey is conducted after the eighth semester to assess
students satisfaction, wherein the feedback is obtained regarding the
teaching-learning process, teaching aids, laboratory facilities and other
infrastructure facilities. The results of the survey are tabulated and
students satisfaction is calculated. Remedial actions are taken for the
programmes whose student satisfaction index fall below the prescribed
value.
c.

Alumni and employers on the programmes and what is the response of


the department to the same?

Alumni Survey It is found that many of the alumni are pursuing higher
education in India. Also, many of them have occupied key positions in multinational companies. The alumni survey is conducted through the survey
questionnaire at the end of graduation to obtain feedback about readiness for
the job. After three years of their graduation, another survey is conducted to
obtain their feedback on the achievement of program objectives. This survey is
conducted by phone calls, emails, social networking sites (eg. face-book) and
through personal contacts. The results from the above feedbacks are analyzed
and discussed in the department meetings. Any necessary improvements in the
curriculum, teaching-learning process, up gradation of the faculty & facilities,
etc. are taken care.

a.

PART-E

Faculty on curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation? If yes, how


does the department utilize it?

The process for curriculum design, evaluation and updation of the syllabi are
standardized. The department has initiated the process of formally surveying the
requirements of the stakeholders of its engineering programme through well
designed survey instruments. The survey would be conducted once in a year. The
analysis of their responses has aided substantially to take fresh look at the syllabi
and fine-tune it to closely meet the requirements of the stakeholders.
When the faculty specialized in a subject perceives a need for modification of the
syllabi in his/her course due to his/her interaction with various stake holders,
he/she is expected to put forth the details of what is being proposed for
modification, to what modified form, and why is it being done. The proposals with
proper and sufficient justification are deliberated in the Board of Studies before
accepted for inclusion in the syllabi. The rich experience of Board members, coupled
with their comprehensive knowledge of contemporary economic, technological, and
social issues has been a great asset to bank on while revising the syllabi.

b.

Students on staff, curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation and


what is the response of the department to the same?

1. Student feedback on staff is taken at the thrice in a Year (Twice in a semester).


The feedback questionnaire is objectively designed. Based on the responses of
the students the Faculty Competence Index (FCI) is calculated. The result of the
survey is discussed with the concerned faculty member by the HOD with regards
to the pace of delivery of course, the use of teaching aids, punctuality, role
playing, questions posed to students, clarifying student doubts, demonstrating
case studies etc. The faculty with FCI<70% will be counseled by the HOD and
Principal and measures will be initiated to improve the performance.

2. On Curriculum: Mid-term feed-back regarding curriculum is obtained from the


students. The same is analyzed in BOS meeting and if necessary, changes are
made in the syllabus.

3. On Teaching learning process:


Course end survey On completion of a course, the students express their level
of understanding of the course through responding to a questionnaire. A
scientifically designed questionnaire will be administered on line to the students
wherein they key- in their responses. These responses are analyzed and the

results are tabulated. This is used as a basis for further improvement of teaching
learning process.
Graduate survey A survey is conducted after the eighth semester to assess
students satisfaction, wherein the feedback is obtained regarding the teachinglearning process, teaching aids, laboratory facilities and other infrastructure
facilities. The results of the survey are tabulated and students satisfaction is
calculated. Remedial actions are taken for the programmes whose student
satisfaction index fall below the prescribed value

c.

Alumni and employers on the programmes and what is the response of the
department to the same?

Alumni Survey It is found that many of the alumni are pursuing higher education
in India. Also, many of them have occupied key positions in multi-national
companies. The alumni survey is conducted through the survey questionnaire at the
end of graduation to obtain feedback about readiness for the job. After three years of
their graduation, another survey is conducted to obtain their feedback on the
achievement of program objectives. This survey is conducted by phone calls, emails,
social networking sites (eg. face-book) and through personal contacts.

The results from the above feedbacks are analyzed and discussed in the department
meetings. Any necessary improvements in the curriculum, teaching-learning
process, upgradation of the faculty & facilities, etc. are taken care

Does the department obtain feedback from


a.

Faculty on curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation? If yes, how


does the department utilize it?

The process for curriculum design, evaluation and updating of the syllabi are
standardized. The department has initiated the process of formally surveying the
requirements of the stake holders of its engineering programme through well
designed survey instruments. The survey would be conducted once in a year. The

PART-E

analysis of their responses has aided substantially to take fresh look at the syllabi
and fine-tune it to closely meet the requirements of the stakeholders.
When the faculty specialized in a subject perceives a need for modification of the
syllabi in his/her course due to his/her interaction with various stake holders,
he/she is expected to put forth the details of what is being proposed for
modification, to what modified form, and why is it being done. The proposals with
proper and sufficient justification are deliberated in the Board of Studies before
accepted for inclusion in the syllabi. The rich experience of Board members, coupled
with their comprehensive knowledge of contemporary economic, technological, and
social issues has been a great asset to bank on while revising the syllabi.

b.

Students on staff, curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation and


what is the response of the department to the same?

1. Student feedback on staff is taken at the end of each semester. The feedback
questionnaire is scientifically designed. Based on the responses of the students
the Faculty Competence Index (FCI) is calculated. The result of the survey is
discussed with the concerned faculty member by the HOD with regards to the
pace of delivery of course, the use of teaching aids, punctuality, role playing,
questions posed to students, clarifying student doubts, demonstrating case
studies etc. The faculty with FCI<70% will be counseled by the HOD and
Principal and measures will be initiated to improve the performance.

2. On Curriculum: Mid-term feed-back regarding curriculum is obtained from the


students. The same is analyzed in BOS meeting and if necessary, changes are
made in the syllabus.

3. On Teaching learning process:


Course end survey On completion of a course, the students express their level of
understanding of the course through responding to a questionnaire. A scientifically
designed questionnaire will be administered on line to the students wherein they
key- in their responses. These responses are analyzed and the results are tabulated.
This is used as a basis for further improvement of teaching learning process.
Graduate survey A survey is conducted after the eighth semester to assess
students satisfaction, wherein the feedback is obtained regarding the teachinglearning process, teaching aids, laboratory facilities and other infrastructure
facilities. The results of the survey are tabulated and students satisfaction is
calculated. Remedial actions are taken for the programmes whose student
satisfaction index fall below the prescribed value

Alumni and employers on the programmes and what is the response of the
department to the same?

Alumni Survey It is found that many of the alumni are pursuing higher education
in India. Also, many of them have occupied key positions in multi-national
companies. The alumni survey is conducted through the survey questionnaire at the
end of graduation to obtain feedback about readiness for the job. After three years of
their graduation, another survey is conducted to obtain their feedback on the
achievement of program objectives. This survey is conducted by phone calls, emails,
social networking sites (eg. face-book) and through personal contacts.

The results from the above feedbacks are analyzed and discussed in the department
meetings. Any necessary improvements in the curriculum, teaching-learning
process, upgradation of the faculty & facilities, etc. are taken care
