CURRICULUM-2016
( C-16 )
FOR DIPLOMA COURSES IN ANDHRA PRADESH
PREAMBLE
The State Board of Technical Education and Training, Andhra Pradesh under the aegis
of the Department of Technical Education, Andhra Pradesh generally reviews the Curricula
once in every five years. However, recognizing the needs of the industries and enhancing the
employability skills of Polytechnic students, the Government of Andhra Pradesh constituted a
committee vide G.O.Rt.No:95 of Higher Education (TE) Dept dated: 29-4-2016 and
G.O.Rt.No:98 of Higher Education (TE) Dept dated: 4-5-2016 for updation of polytechnic
curriculum under the chairmanship of Sri. S. Balasubrahmanyam, IAS (Retd.,). The committee
submitted a report on 31-5-2016 making certain recommendations and suggesting new
initiatives to be incorporated in the curriculum. An Industry Institute Interaction Meet was
organized with Industry experts and subject experts on 26-12-2016 and the suggestions from
Industrialists have also been incorporated in the curriculum. The new Curricula for the
different diploma courses have been designed with the active participation of the members of
the faculty teaching in the Polytechnics of Andhra Pradesh, besides reviewed by Expert
Committee constituted with eminent academicians.
The primary objective of the curricular change is to produce best technicians in the
country by correlating growing needs of the industries with the academic input.
The revised New Curriculum i.e., Curriculum–2016 (C-16) is approved by BoG of
SBTET for its implementation with effect from 2016-17.
Salient Features:
1. Duration of course is either 3 years / 3½ years duration of Regular Academic
Instruction.
2. The Curriculum is prepared in Semester Pattern. However, First Year is maintained as
Year-wise pattern.
3. 6 Months/ 1 year Industrial Training is introduced for all the Diploma courses.
4. Fundamentals of Internet of Things (IOT) is introduced for all the Diploma courses in
the subject.
5. Modern subjects relevant to the industry are introduced in all the Diploma courses.
6. CISCO course content has been incorporated into the ECE and CME courses to get
certification from CISCO along with Diploma.
7. The policy decisions taken at the State and Central level with regard to environmental
science are implemented by including relevant topics in Chemistry. This is also in
accordance with the Supreme Court guidelines issued in Sri Mehta‘s case.
8. Keeping in view the increased need of communication skills which is playing a major
role in the success of Diploma Level students in the Industries, emphasis is given for
learning and acquiring listening, speaking, reading and writing skills in English. Further
as emphasized in the meetings, Communication Skills lab and Life Skills lab are
introduced for all the branches.
9. Modern topics relevant to the needs of the industry and global scenario suitable to be
taught at Diploma level are also incorporated in the curriculum.
10. AutoCAD specific to the branch has been given more emphasis in the curriculum.
Preparing drawings using CAD software has been given more importance.
11. Every student is exposed to the computer lab at the 1st year itself in order to familiarize
himself with skills required for keyboard/mouse operation, internet usage and e-mailing.
12. Upon reviewing the existing C-14 curriculum, it is found that the theory content is found
to have more weightage than the Practical content. In the revised C-16 curriculum, more
emphasis is given to the practical content of Laboratories and Workshops, thus
strengthening the practical skills.
13. With increased emphasis for the student to acquire Practical skills, the course content in
all the subjects is thoroughly reviewed and structured as outcome based than the
conventional procedure based.
14. Curricula of Laboratory and Workshops have been thoroughly revised based on the
suggestions received from the industry and faculty, for better utilization of the
equipment available at the Polytechnics. The experiments /exercises that are chosen for
the practical sessions are identified to conform to the field requirements of industry.
15. The Members of the working group are grateful to Sri G.S. Panda Das, I.A.S., Special
Commissioner of Technical Education & Chairman of SBTET, AP. and Sri. Adityanath
Das, I.A.S., Principal Secretary of Higher Education for their guidance and valuable
inputs in revising, modifying and updating the curriculum.
16. The Members acknowledge with thanks the cooperation and guidance provided by Sri.
A.Nirmal Kumar Priya, Secretary, SBTET, Andhra Pradesh and other officials of
Directorate of Technical Education and the State Board of Technical Education, Andhra
Pradesh, experts from industry, academia from the universities and higher learning
