1.2.1. Describe the Programme Educational Objectives (PEOs) (2)

Programme educational objectives are broad statements that describe the career and
professional accomplishments that the programme is preparing graduates to achieve
within 3 to 5 years after graduation.
The PEOs of B. Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering are
1. Electronics and Communication Engineering graduates have successful careers
in Industry/ Entrepreneurship.

PEOs are published in the college website, printed and displayed at the reception areas
of the department. They are made available to the access of stake holders. It is
included in the course file for each course in all semesters. They are conveyed to the
parents, students, alumni and other stake holders in the initial meetings.

1.2.3. List the stakeholders of the programme (1)

Stakeholders/Constituencies
For the development and assessment of the Programme Education Objectives, the
significant constituencies of the department were identified and a review/feedback
process is in place to continuously improve the curriculum to which the program
educational objectives are being met.

1 Students

Students are the important constituents due to the fact that the major investment (both
money and time) is envisaged in the students. Student evaluations and opinions are
obtained through student exit surveys, course and project surveys.

2 Industry

The corporate input from industry representatives is considered essential in assessing


student performance. The feedback from the employers is another milestone for the
vision achievement.

19
NBA- SAR Department of EC Engineering

3 Faculty

The faculty is the backbone in providing an excellent teaching-learning experience and


the ultimate facilitator for engineering education. As a real facilitator, the faculty has
an excellent opportunity to evaluate student deliverables. Evaluations of student
performance in classes are used as assessment tools.

4 Alumni

Alumni of the programme represent a much broader spectrum of individuals with a


wide range of experience in their lives and careers. It is very important to include
their feedback, through Alumni surveys, in evaluating the programme’s success in
meeting its desired programme educational objectives.

5 Parents

Parents are another important stakeholder for the academic programme. The parent
constituency contributes by providing valuable suggestions and feedbacks.

1.2.4. State the process for establishing the PEOs (5)

Initial PEOs drafts were prepared by senior faculty by considering the Vision and
Mission of the Department. The PEO’s were framed by a committee consisting of
HOD, Coordinators and Class Teachers. They were discussed, finalized and presented
in the common staff meeting and approved by Academic Council of the College and
published in the college/department website.

The Committee meets every year after publication of University results of final year
students to review the PEO’s and analyses the achievement of the PEO and strategy to
be adopted to achieve the PEO. The modifications suggested by the committee are
incorporated from the next first year admission.

Inputs to review the PEO’s are taken from students, alumni, parents, employers and
feedback cells. The process is described in Figure 4 as shown below

2.2.2. Explain how modes of delivery of courses help in the attainment of


the POs (10)

1. The subjects are allocated well in time so that the faculty can prepare the
course plan consisting of course delivery methods, assessment plan,
assignment frequency. And the same is monitored by the HOD before
commencement of the class. Weekly progress is monitored and reported to
Dean Academics.
2. Examinations are planned and announced before the commencement of the
semester classes, evaluated answer scripts are returned within five days and
week students are monitored and mentored. The same is informed to the
parents. By this process the course outcome attainment is monitored and intern
achieves the PO.
3. Assignments are distributed evenly throughout the semester.
4. Assignments are given in different forms to develop their interpersonal skill,
communication skill, lifelong learning, usage of modern tools, group activity
and self-learning capability are monitored.

65
NBA- SAR Department of EC Engineering

5. Micro projects and mini projects are made compulsory as part of the course
delivery by which skill development is achieved.
6. Subject wise quizzes are organized and conducted among the students of the
class.
7. Assignments, quizzes and examinations contribute to assessing the students’
ability to use fundamental concepts, quantitative, numerical and analytical
skills.
8. Laboratory exams, mini projects and main projects contribute to the
assessment of practical skills which reflect the ability of students to implement
ideas and techniques.
9. Reports, oral presentation and viva-voce contribute to the assessment of overall
communication skills and dissemination of ideas.
10. These assessments are carried out periodically and hence allow the faculty
members to monitor and provide attention to the students who may not be
attaining the PO’s to the required level.
11. This ensures that all students attain the minimum level of each programme
outcomes

5. Project works progress is monitored by the guide; in addition to that frequent
evaluation is carried out with proper assessment tools.
6. Oral presentation is conducted thrice in the presence of a subject expert panel
project panel, weekly bi-weekly meetings and discussion with the concerned
project supervisor is documented with proper well defined formats.
7. Every club/society organizes certain activity in every semester and annual
technical and cultural fests are organized and students are encouraged to
participate actively in different roles.

2.3.2. Indicate results of evaluation of each PO (25)

a. The expected level of attainment for each of the Program Outcomes;

The department advisory committee initially set the expected level of attainment of
the each Program outcomes, so that the students expected to be reasonably
proficient with each of the program outcomes so that they achieve the PEO. From
the attainment level of Course outcomes we can compute the attainment of PO.

The achievement of program outcomes are assessed with the help of course
outcomes of the relevant courses through different methods and the same is
monitored at various stages and computation of the final PO is done. The result is
compared with the threshold value of three in a scale of five. The illustration of the
same is shown as a graph in the next session.

The minimum PO attainment value is taken to be 3 and the attained values are well
above this range.

e) How the results are documented and maintained.


The results of evaluation process are documented and maintained by the department
as follows.
1. Course outcome is documented by each faculty during the course and at the
end the same is handed over to the department program coordinator. He
combines the CO s to compute the attainment of PO.
2. Starting from first series examination to the University end semester result
of the batch is maintained in a separate file batch wise. The same is available
in the intranet for monitoring the student’s progress. Parents are also
informed timely.
3. College administrative office maintains the final university result of each
semester batch wise and programmed wise. The results are displayed on web
server so that the students and their parents have an easy and all time access
to the progress of the students.

2.4. Indicate how the results of evaluation of achievement of the


POs have been used for redefining the POs (10)

1. The PO’s were framed from the Graduate Attributes to train our students to
achieve PEO by a committee consisting of HOD, Coordinators and Class
Teachers.
2. The Committee meets every semester after the publication of internal assessment
to monitor the CO attainment and suggest the immediate changes if required in
course delivery, It evaluates the attainment of the PO from all the COs of a batch
at the end of the program and review the PO’s attainment level and recommends if
the methods of delivery or new courses are to be added. That will be implemented
from the next year’s admission.
3. Course exit survey is conducted and data are analyzed to identify the attainment
level and gaps.
4. Feedbacks are taken from the stakeholders for reviewing PO’s.
5. The process of redefining is similar to the process of framing and updating the PO
is as shown in figure 3
The Academic Council in its fortnight meetings discusses about the performance of
students after the examinations and suggests implementing the new methods to
improve the result. Same has been implemented by the faculty. University results are
compared among the college under our affiliated university, analyses and identify the
gap in our system. Thereafter, the Academic Council meets the staff and faculty
members to discuss how the attainment of PO’s can be improved and suggest the
methods to be followed from the next batch. This information is further used by the
Department Advisory Board to propose a final revised set of POs.

3.1.3. Justify how the programme curriculum satisfies the


programme specific criteria (5)

Programme Specific Criteria:


Lead Society: IEEE
These programme criteria apply to engineering programmes that include electrical,
electronic, computer, or similar modifiers in their titles.
1. Curriculum
The structure of the curriculum must provide both breadth and depth across the
range of engineering topics implied by the title of the program.
The curriculum must include probability and statistics, including applications
appropriate to the program name; mathematics through differential and integral
calculus; sciences (defined as biological, chemical, or physical science); and
engineering topics (including computing science) necessary to analyze and design
complex electrical and electronic devices, software, and systems containing
hardware and software components.
The curriculum for programs containing the modifier “electrical” in the title must
include advanced mathematics, such as differential equations, linear algebra,
complex variables, and discrete mathematics.
The curriculum for programs containing the modifier “computer” in the title must
include discrete mathematics.

The programme curriculum satisfies the IEEE Programme Specific Criteria and can be
shown by dividing it into core component
1. Mathematical Logic: These subjects provide the foundation to the electronics
and communication programme. These include probability, statistics and
calculus necessary to solve complex problems.
2. Science: These include subjects like Physical and Chemical science, which can
be used to analyze and solve advanced engineering subjects.
3. Computing: These topics help to bridge the gap between hardware and
software, to analyze and solve simple as well as complex problems.
4. Engineering Basics: Helps in developing awareness about various
mathematical structures and its applications, which provide the breadth across
the range of engineering topics implied by the title of the programme.
5. Professional Core: These are ones that help to mould the student’s future, by
developing appropriate skills. It helps in providing an academics perspective
on electronics and communication addressing a wide range of areas like wired
and wireless communication, VLSI, Embedded systems and Optics.

3.4. Industry interaction/internship (10)

The following are the procedures followed for industry interaction.


1. Industrial visit to know the working standards, process and procedures involved in
an industry.
2. Students are sent for internship/ industrial training of 10 to 15 days during the
program.
3. Industry personnel are invited to the College to discuss about the current standards
and trends in the relevant core areas and the expectation of the industry from the
students. This type of seminar helps the students to get updated in the field of
interest.
4. Training program on the industry used modern tools are offered to the students like
Lab View training, ORCAD etc.

82
NBA- SAR Department of EC Engineering

3.5. Illustrate the measures and processes used to identify the


curricular gaps to the attainment of the COs/POs (15)

1. During the placement drive we can identify the area where the gap exists in our
students. Such gaps are reduced by the required training through add on courses or
by implementing it in the regular time table.
2. One such gap identified was lack of communication skills and student’s fear of
facing interview. Communication classes (English) are included in the timetable
and during those hours students are given exclusive training in communication
skill. Other arrangements include use of language lab, mock debate and group
discussions.
3. Aptitude training, career enhancement, GATE coaching etc are given regularly
along with the course of study in well-defined manner.
4. In this regard almost 1 lakh general aptitude questions are added in the college
server in addition to the technical questions which are contributed by faculty.
Each faculty contributes hundreds of objective type questions related to subject in
every semester and updating the server for analyzing the technical knowledge of
the students.
5. Students are motivated to attend the same twice in a week and faculty monitors the
score. Department career and placement cell regularly conducts the aptitude
training and motivational talks.
6. To know about the current development in the field of study students are
encouraged to select the topics for seminar and projects from refried journals.
They are encouraged to publish paper in the conference or in the journal even at
UG level, this helps them to improve the technical publication skill and to know
about the journals in the field of interest.
7. Additional training on a subject or modern tools are given to the students to make
them to compete among the peer groups.

3.6. Indicate the content beyond syllabus imparted for the attainment
of the COs/POs (35)

The following process is added in the Time-Table in addition to the regular syllabus so
that technical and behavioral skill of our students will improve.
1. Induction program in first year and in subsequent semester as and when required.
2. Micro project included in second year of study, where the students are expected to
do a small project, which starts with selection of the circuit, implementing it in the
bread board, testing and converting it into a common PCB, soldering and casing.
Entire work in the project is done so that this process will develop their skill for
hands-on work. A report of the activity is also prepared by the students.
83
NBA- SAR Department of EC Engineering

3. During the Club activities students are expected to develop team work,
presentation skill and faculty monitors the same.
4. Add on training in modern tools used in the industry to reduce the gap in those
areas.
5. Regular aptitude training to improve their skill for placement.
6. Interaction with the stake holders to identify the gaps and the same is reduced
through the proper training.
7. Invited talks by eminent people from academia, industry etc to feed the needs of
the hour.
8. Seminars by the students and motivational talks, retreat, other valued added classes
are incorporated as part of the regular academic calendar.

7.2.3. Feedback analysis and reward / corrective measures taken, if any (5)
(Instruction: The institution needs to design an effective feedback ques t i onnai re. It
needs to justify that the feedback mechanism developed by the institution really helps to
evaluate teaching, and finally, contributes to the quality of teaching).

Feedback collected for all courses: YES

Specify the feedback collection process: The students of each class are guided to the
Central Computing Facility as per a pre- planned schedule. The students are given 14
questions concerning the faculty who are dealing with theory papers and 9 questions for
faculty and staff dealing with Laboratories or workshops. The questionnaire is designed to
enable them to give their opinion as Excellent, Very Good, Satisfactory or Poor. Using a
computer program the score of each faculty is computed and shall be forwarded to the
Principal. The students are also allowed to write whatever comments they want to make
about the teachers which will be finally checked by Principal and HOD and forwarded to
the faculty concerned.
Percentage of students who participated: More than 90 percent.

Specify the feedback analysis process: The feedback collected from students are first
analyzed at the level of HOD and then at the level of faculty appraisal committee, headed
by the Principal. The contents of the feedback will be shared with each faculty member
individually. The feedback system works as an eye opener for the faculty.

Basis of reward/corrective measures, if any: Best faculty award is given based on students
feedback, HOD’s evaluation, the faculty’s self-appraisal report and the marks given by
Faculty appraisal committee, headed by Principal. The increments and promotions are
also bear some effect on these scores. Those with very poor marks and with bad
comments from many students will be asked to show- cause why they should be
allowed to continue in this College.

Number of corrective actions taken in the last three years: 3 faculty members were warned
during last three years. The warning led to improvements in their performance and quality
of teaching.

7.2.4. Scope for self-learning (5)

(Instruction: The institution needs to specify the scope for self- learning / learning beyond
syllabus and creation of facilities for self-learning / learning beyond syllabus.)

134
NBA- SAR Department of EC Engineering

In tune with AJCE’s vision of being a transformational leader in education, conscious efforts
are taken in the academic and allied activities of the college to nurture critical thinking, self-
learning, creativity and scientific temper among students.

The college believes that self-learning and learning beyond syllabus have a great scope in the
development of the career of an engineer. Everything in engineering cannot be taught in the
class room or laboratories. The explosion in knowledge related to applied science and
engineering during the last century has been so much that four years is too short a period even
to cover one branch of engineering. This fact calls for the relevance for self-learning for
young engineers. What an institution should do is to provide adequate facilities for self-
learning to students so that they get motivated to learn more and more and ultimately become
life-long learners and innovators.

Motivation for self-learning should be provided in the classrooms. A teacher has a great role
to play in this. Discussing subject beyond the syllabus, providing exposure to exciting
developments in science and technology around the globe, attempting solutions to problems
in daily life etc. are the ways to motivate students for self-learning. They should also be
motivated to do things themselves so that they gain confidence to try anything with their own
hands. An intuition should provide ample opportunities and facilities for these to students.
Amal Jyothi College of Engineering has been doing just this, as outlined below.

7.2.5. Generation of self-learning facilities, and availability of materials for learning


beyond syllabus (5)
(Instruction: The institution needs to specify the facilities for self- learning / learning
beyond syllabus.)
Amal Jyothi College of Engineering (AJCE) has provided the following facilities to students
for their self-learning and learning beyond syllabus

Infrastructure:

1. 24/7 internet access with Wi-Fi connectivity


2. Smart classrooms with audiovisual aids
3. AES Software, Language lab, Computer Labs etc.

Learning resources:

1. Committed faculty who motivate students in the process of their learning


2. Reputed Journals from IEEE, ACM, Springer, Wiley etc.
3. Online Databases and Digital Video
4. Licensed Soft wares

The institution supports teachers to make learning efficient. The college provides a central
library with all latest books and journals which the faculty can utilize effectively and provide
135
NBA- SAR Department of EC Engineering

comprehensive latest information to students. Students are encouraged to use the library
independently to enhance their skills and knowledge. Apart from this college provides
seminar halls where the students can participate in group discussions, debates, seminars etc.
The institution and faculty members support and encourage every student to make use of
Internet, computers and latest technologies available to upgrade themselves in their respective
field of studies.

Student projects:

Every student in AJCE does three projects during their course. Each student is assigned a
Micro project during third semester, a Mini project during fifth semester and a Main project
during seventh and eighth semesters. The students have the freedom to select projects of their
choice in consultation with teachers. Execution of these projects by themselves goes a long
way in developing independent thinking, organizing various elements of work in the project
and finding solutions to problems they face. These projects inculcate creativity and innovative
mind among students. AJCE thinks that execution of these projects will help to transform
students in to life-long learners and innovators.

Promotion of research among Students:

The institution has taken keen interest to promote research culture among students. The steps
taken in this regard at the college level are listed below:

1. Constitution of a Research Committee to mentor and monitor research among students


and to inculcate a scientific and research environment in the college
2. Research project for all students are carried out in the campus itself to make them more
research oriented.
3. Training programs at different levels are organized to introduce upcoming technologies
4. Seed money provided by the college for selected student research projects under a
scheme called Innovation Ideas Unleashed (I2U) (About a dozen I2 U projects are supported
every year). This project competition among students began in 2011.
5. Encourage research paper presentations in National and International Seminars
6. Personal mentoring and guidance by the research supervisor throughout the research
Process.
7. Scope for publishing eligible research results in the College Research journal, Amal
Jyothi Technical Report.

These activities initiated by the college for promotion of research motivate students to think
independently and go for self-learning and to learn their subjects of interest beyond syllabus

(Instruction: The institution may specify the facility and management to facilitate career
guidance including counselling for higher studies, industry interaction for training/
internship/ placement, entrepreneurship cell and incubation facility and impact of such
systems.)
Career guidance and placement of students

The college has a placement cell with 3 full time staff members, including a full time
placement officer, to provide career guidance and placement training to students. The
placement cell organizes on-campus and off-campus recruitments and pre-placement training
programs in Aptitude test, Group Discussions, Interviews and presentation skills in
collaboration with the Department of Humanities and other core departments. Mock
interviews and GDs are conducted on a regular basis so as to equip final and pre-final
students to face the challenges of recruitment scenario. Close on the heels of placement
drives, the Placement Cell makes an evaluation of the performance of the students. This
objective appraisal enables the college to identify strengths and weakness of the candidates
and select strategies for improvement. Besides, there are intensive supportive measures for
low performing candidates.

9.7 New Facility Created (20)


Specify new facilities created during the last three years for strengthening the curriculum
and/or meeting the PO s.

Various new facilities which has been hitherto unavailable to the students have been created
for strengthening the curriculum and/or meeting the P.Os. The important ones have been
listed below

• Industrial training: Students are encouraged to undergo industrial training during their
semester break in some industry of their choice. Also a report has to be submitted at the end
of industrial training. Industrial training provides an insight to students about what is
happening in the real world and also supplements their class room knowledge. Industrial
training also helps students to get acquainted with the work culture in industry which will be
173
NBA- SAR Department of EC Engineering

of immense help for them later when they join for jobs in industry after their course
completion
• Software training programmes: The advent of various software has made life of an
engineer easy. So it is essential that students are taught the nuances of various software
which would help them in giving better shape to their ideas as also give them an added
advantage in their career prospects. With this in mind the department has taken a lead in
teaching students software like C, MATLAB, AWR, LABVIEW, PSPICE etc.
• Workshops: Different workshops related to the curriculum taught are arranged
throughout academic year to enhance students’ knowledge in engineering subjects. Eminent
personalities from industry as well as academia are invited to deliver lectures during these
workshops. Students often find these sessions to be extremely useful which is evident from
their involvement as well as their interaction with the resource persons
• Participation in paper presentations and technical competitions at the national and
international level: Students are encouraged to participate in paper presentations and
technical competitions at the national and international levels.
• Projects (in three levels): Students have to carry out a project at micro level (second
year) where they chose their area of interest. Micro project mainly aims at familiarizing
students with nuances of literature review and an exposure on how to apply their class room
knowledge to research. Mini level projects (third year project) aims at exposing students to
real world scenarios of the theory they have studied in class in their area of interest. Main
level (final year) project aims at training them to find solutions to real world problems with
their technical knowhow. The partaking of students in micro, mini and main project have
been found to be very effective in their growth as engineers.
• E Learning, Online Courses: Students are encouraged to use the vast repertoire of
materials available online in the relevant areas. Students are actively instructed and
encouraged to refer courses of their interest in NPTEL, MOOC’s etc.
• Aptitude training: Aptitude Training is given to students during their 3rd and 4th year
in order to make them capable of attending all the competitive exams, interviews conducted
by industries etc.
