III.5. Deficiencies, weaknesses/concerns from previous accreditations:

1.The number of faculty members is reasonable, however there is a need to induct quality

faculty in the system.

Action Taken: Adequate number of faculty with PhD qualifications and with years of academic, industry and research experience are being inducted. Currently there are 36 PhDs of whom 17 with industry experience are available in the institute.

2. Alumni activities and services are to be adequately directed, supported, strengthened and followed up. The special bond has to be nurtured.

Action Taken: Alumni are involved in a series called PARAMPARA, sharing their experiences right from the time of their interview till their settling in their careers. Few alumni of the college have ensured job openings for our graduates, a few started contributing to college (endowment fund) - one of them has instituted an award for Academic Excellence.

3. Implementation of the students feedback and delivery of various courses needs to be improved.

Action Taken: Students feedback collected in format are analyzed and required improvements and actions are undertaken where ever necessary. Faculty is given counseling and may even be replaced on a case-to-case basis. The stake holder feedbacks are similarly given attention and necessary improvements and changes in the support facilities such as transport, library, canteen, safety and security are undertaken without delay.

4. Counseling and guidance, how to face interviews, communication skills both oral and written of students needs to be strengthened. A good functional language laboratory must be set up as soon as possible for the benefit of the students of the institute.

Action Taken: Currently soft skills, Interview skills and personality development programs for various years are under taken. A new post of the Dean Career Guidance and Counseling has been created who actively supervises these activities.

1.2 Programme Educational Objectives (15)

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

The Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) are defined and developed for each program with the consultation and involvement of various stakeholders such as management, students, industry, regulating authorities, alumni, faculty, and parents. Their interests, social relevance and contributions are taken in to account in defining and developing the PEOs.

The Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) of the Electronics and Communication Engineering Department are listed below:

1. To impart quality education which is strong both in the fundamentals and in the state-of-the-art knowledge.

2. To prepare for immediate professional practice as well as advanced graduate study and propagate lifelong learning.

3. To broadly prepare for their professional and personal lives, providing the basis for an effective professional and civic leadership and to create informed citizenry.

4. Strengthen students in all forms of technical and nontechnical communication skills,

5. To inculcate the ability to work as an effective team member even in a multidisciplinary team environment.

6. To create an understanding of the broad social and ethical implications of their work.

1.2.2. State how and where the PEOs are published and disseminated (2)

As a stake holder the students are the ones to whom the fundamental and the application knowledge apart from professional, technical, non-technical, social and ethical competencies are being imparted. Based on the strength of these core competencies, a student is going to start a professional career, which is expected to contribute to his/her growth. A faculty as stake holder observes the results and applicability of his teaching skills come to bear fruit with every successful student in career and an increase in demand for the programme. He also relates his personal growth with the environment. The parent as a stake holder has invested time and money in shaping the career of their ward, hence are free to give directions and course corrections required by the programme to suite their expectations and outcomes in their perception. The Industry looks forward to recruit a technically and professionally competent graduate who can be put task from day one without investing in time and money in training and assessments. The alumni is a stake holder because he or she is already in the professional world interacting with technology, industry and society, thus becomes a bridge to the Alma mater and guides suitably shaping programmes as per the current and future demand of the industry. The management, based on the feedbacks can facilitate better the current and the future programmes in terms of infrastructure to enhance modern learning and to satisfy the role of its society GRES in its ideology and contribution to the country. The management would like to achieve its goals and objectives as per its vision and mission statement through the teaching and learning environment it has created, which is constantly reviewed for improvement.

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

The survey questionnaire are prepared and circulated to various stakeholders such as faculty, students, management, alumni, industry, parents. Based on this feedback given by this survey the PEOs were prepared as per the curriculum.

1.2.5. Establish consistency of PEOs with Mission of the institute (5)

The PEOs are consistent with the Mission of Department as described by mapping. The parallel nature of COLLEGE SHORTCUT NAMEs Mission and the ECE Program Educational Objectives is evident. The ECE PEOs reflect the expected accomplishments of our graduates a few years after graduation. These objectives are consistent with the COLLEGE SHORTCUT NAME Mission statement as is evident from the statement above.

By educating students in the fundamentals of electronics and communication engineering we are preparing them for careers in professional practice. By developing their abilities to solve practical problems of importance to society we are preparing them for civic contribution as well as professional practice.

We further prepare students for civic contribution, leadership, and life-long learning by providing them with a broad education including communication and life-long learning skills. These Program Educational Objectives also subsume Program Outcomes which are entirely consistent with the NBA Criteria (a) - (m). Therefore, our Program EducationalObjectives are deemed to be consistent with the NBA Criteria for Accrediting Engineering

Programs.

1.4. Assessment of the achievement of the Programme Educational Objectives (25)

The process employed to assess the PEOs, the way they are articulated and improved as a continuous activity needs to be elaborated and We have adopted the common view that

Educational Objectives refer to characteristics and abilities demonstrated by our alumni in the initial years after completion of the ECE program.

We evaluate the achievement of these Objectives in four fundamental ways: Via on-going reviews of our distribution and other program requirements so that they reflect an ability by all students to achieve the stated objectives. Via data from our Outcomes Assessment process since our Program Outcomes should prepare graduates to demonstrate Educational Objectives. Via initial and continuing career success of our graduates. Via a range of contacts with our alumni and other constituencies, principally including Alumni Surveys, parent surveys, faculty, and industry.

Several time scales are involved in evaluation of objectives. First, we wish to determine that the curriculum is in fact providing an education which can be expected to lead to achievement of the stated objectives. Second, we wish to verify that students are learning the desired aspects. Third, we wish to verify that our alumni are displaying results consistent with the objectives in their professional lives.

Objective 1. An education which is strong both in the fundamentals and in state-of-

the-art knowledge. The main vehicle available for educating students in the fundamental and advanced principles of ECE is appropriate coursework that meets both the JNTU, B.Tech degree requirements as well as the ECE specific course distribution requirements. Thus, every ECE graduate must complete the areas of mathematics, basic science, engineering science and design.

Objective 2. Preparation for immediate professional practice as well as graduate study

and lifelong learning. The two major required projects (Mini Project, Main Project), faculty and professional seminars, reinforcement during state-of-the-art classes, and special presentations on BTech degree educational opportunities form the basis for informing students about graduate study and life-long learning opportunities. Other structures, events,requirements and organizations that support the preparation of students for professional

practice, graduate study, and lifelong learning include the following.

IEEE Student Branch and Hyderabad City Local Branch of the IEEE- professional

meetings, events, invited speakers, dinners, luncheons, shows, visits and other professional

interactions.

Women in ECE Group - corporate visits, speakers, various events.

Objective 3. Broad preparation for their professional and personal lives, providing the basis for effective professional and civic leadership and informed citizenship. There are a variety of degree requirements dedicated to Objective 3, including the Social Science requirement, the Humanities and Arts requirement, and the main prject work. These unique requirements are among the major strengths of the ------------------ educational program and provide a firm foundation for helping students become informed and contributing citizens. We also maintain a very active student chapter of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers that helps students begin the process of serving their professional community.

Objective 4. Strength in all forms of technical and nontechnical communication. Effective communication, essential for success, requires facility in both written and oral communication. The main opportunities for students to develop written communication skills are the Humanities and Arts requirement, the Mini and Main Project work. We also note that in all laboratory courses, students are expected to thoroughly document their work in formal lab reports which are critiqued. The course curriculum also giving more waitage to effective communication skills from first year to final year.

Objective 5. The ability for effective teamwork. Teamwork is an integral part of the ------------------ educational plan, and certainly is reinforced in ECE laboratory and project work. The two required projects (Major and Mini) are both teamwork intensive over an extended period of time. All ECE laboratory experiences are teamwork focused. Finally, ECE program is not only team work centric, the course teaches teaming and scheming skills as part of the syllabus.

Objective 6. An understanding of the broad social and ethical implications of their work. Students develop a broad background in the social and ethical implications of their work through a number of different mechanisms. These include the Mini Project, the Humanities and Arts requirement, the Social Science and Policy Studies requirement, our projects based on Course requirements, recent trends, social needs includes new and innovative tools and trends, and presentations on ethics and social implications that are part of the syllabus.

These assessment data are used to modify and update the course curriculum for the continuous improvement of the program. The PEOs are attained through Course objectives and Course Outcomes are which are assessed and evaluated as per the guidelines of the Institute and University.

We have adopted the common view that Educational Objectives refer to characteristics and abilities demonstrated by our alumni in the initial years after completion of the ECE program.

(a) We evaluate the achievement of these Objectives in four fundamental ways:

Vide on-going reviews of our distribution and other program requirements, such that they reflect an ability by all students to achieve the stated objectives.

Vide data from our Outcomes Assessment process since our Program Outcomes should prepare graduates to demonstrate Educational Objectives.

Vide initial and continuing career success of our graduates.

Vide a range of contacts with our alumni, parents, faculty, and corporate constituencies etc. principally including Alumni Surveys, and faculty feedback review.

Several time scales are involved in evaluation of objectives. Firstly, we determine wheather the curriculum is in fact providing an education which can be expected to lead to achievement of the stated objectives. Secondly, we verify if the students are learning the desired aspects. Third, we verify if our alumni are displaying results consistent with the objectives in their professional lives.

b) The mid exam papers are collected in three samples- one of a good student, one of an average student, one of a weak student. These results are summarized and are used for the evaluation process and analysis of PEOs.

2.2.2. Explain how modes of delivery of courses help in the attainment of the Pos (10)

Various direct and indirect assessment and evaluation methods are carried out in achieving the Program Outcomes and Program Outcomes (POs). These methods are explained and mapped against the Program Outcomes. In addition to the traditional assessment methods, Rubrics are employed to measure some of the Program Outcomes (POs).Rubric is a tool that helps to make subjective measurements as objective, clear, and consistent as possible by defining the criteria on which performance should be judged. A tool often shaped like a matrix, with criteria on one side and levels of achievement across the top used to score products or performances. Rubrics describe the characteristics of different levels of performance, often from exemplary to unacceptable. The criteria are ideally explicit, objective, and consistent with expectations for student performance.A general Rubric Template to measure a student outcome in a given objective is shown below. This general template will be used to measure other outcomes in various course objectives. One of the specific objective and outcome measurement is shown below. The Objective is Work effectively with others and the student Outcome is Ability to function in a multi-disciplinary team

Course Outcomes Assessment:

Faculty teaching core subjects are given responsibility of directly assessing and attaining of specific course outcomes. Course outcomes assessment is pertinent because in most programs, course outcomes (established by faculty) can be mapped to student outcomes therefore attainment of student outcomes can be demonstrated by demonstrating attainment of course outcomes.

The faculty uses various tools and activities that are already in place for the evaluation of student performance, such as exams, homework, quizzes, lab activities/reports, project presentations, design reports etc. For laboratory reports and design projects, rubrics were the most common tool used to assign quantitative measures.

1. Alumni surveys and interviews (P)

2. Competitive testse.g., GRE, GMAT, etc., (P)

3. Written mid exams clearly linked to learning objectives (C)

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

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

1. Outcomes: Describe what students must know, do and value at the conclusion of the program.

2. Assessment: Indicate how the department will determine whether learning outcomes have been met, including methods, who is responsible for the assessment, and when the data will be collected.

3. Criteria: Establish the expected achievement of success (based on previous data if possible), target groups, and how the program faculty will determine, if that outcome is successful or if any change is required to improve student learning.

4. Results: Indicate who, when, where, and how the results will be collected,

aggregated,analyzed, reported (actual results, key findings, and supportable

conclusions).

5. Actions: Describe the changes made to the program based on this information, provisions for sharing the plan with internal and external audiences; what new support mechanisms were required, if any, and the time frame when these actions will be re-evaluated in the future. We have a system in place as described below, a continuous process employed to review the results and conclusions obtained from various assessment and evaluation methods. The remedial actions required, if any, and their effectiveness are stated and will be summarized in the Improvement Matrix. The continuous improvement process adopted by our program is explained below. b) Programme Outcomes or Attainment Process (RUBRICS):
