41. Was any need assessment exercise undertaken before the development of new
programme(s)? If so, highlight the methodology.
Steps Activity Responsibility
1 The need for starting a new programme or course(s) may arise from interaction with Industry, Faculty, Students or P&MB/Senate/BOG , UGC/AICTE etc.
BOS/Senate/ BOG/UGC/ AICTE/CILP/ Director/PMB/ Faculty/ Students
2 The idea of proposed programme is discussed in the HODs’ meeting and if found appropriate, the Head of concerned deptt is asked to put up a proper proposal. A sub-committe of internal/external member(s) may sometimes be formed for making the feasibility and viability analysis.
Director
3 The DAAC (on the basis of recommendations of sub-committee, wherever required) does the need analysis and prepares the proposal for approval from BOS.
HOD
4 The BOS after deliberating on the proposal may make the desired modifications and then send the proposal to DOAA for consideration in SUGC/SPGC, along with the duly filled checklists.
HOD
1016
5. The proposal is put up for consideration to SUGC/SPGC -if SUGC/SPGC approves the proposal, its recommendations may be sent to the SENATE/P&MB
DOAA/REGISTRAR
42. Does the department obtain feedback from
a. Faculty on curriculum as well as teaching-learning-evaluation? If yes, how does the
department utilize the feedback? Student Reaction Survey is completed for every course in each semester to get a
formal feedback from students for the courses offered in a semester and provide
objective information to the faculty for self-appraisal, self-improvement &
development. Formal student feedback is obtained online through semester-by-
semester mandatory course evaluation using course reaction survey form and also
through discussions with individual students as well as student representatives on
the Student Consultative Committee (SCC) and also through meetings with student
societies (SOMIE, REC etc). The student reaction survey results are made available to
the individual faculty member for his feedback. The survey is completed online
ensuring that the student is able to give an honest feedback without fear. At no point
during this survey, the student details are known.
Rating of faculty on course, instruction, tutorial, practical & misc. items is reported in
descending order of instructions and feedback is sent to individual faculty member
for improvement. Students are also encouraged to give informal feedback during
instruction process.
Feedback is taken by using a method SRS (Student Reaction Survey), the schedule of
the SRS is issued by Dean of Academic Affairs (DoAA) in each semester.
b. Students on staff, curriculum and teaching-learning-evaluation and how does the department utilize the feedback? The feedback provided by the students for each course and for each instructor is sent
to the concerned instructors and a detailed report is made available to the Department
Head (for the faculty of that Department), Dean Academic Affairs and Director. The
primary purpose of this feedback is self-improvement of the instructors. However, if
a faculty is rated least than 50%, he is formally counselled by the Dean and the
Director in order to improve his performance. The HOD has the feedback results for
all faculties in his domain and for all the courses. The feedback is used constructively
for improvement purposes only.
c. Alumni and employers on the programmes offered and how does the department
utilize the feedback?
Alumni of the Thapar Institute of Engineering & Technology University graduated
from the School of Physics & Materials Science are advised to fill a feedback form
and indicate their perceived level of achievement of the Program Learning Objectives
and attainment of the Program Outcomes. The HOD receives the form and discusses
1017
with the UG and PG coordinators. If relevant, the HOD informs the concerned
faculty, if mentioned in the feedback form for possible improvements. If the HOD
deems appropriate, he sends the feedback reports to the DoAA.

45. List the teaching methods adopted by the faculty for different programmes. Class rooms are equipped with black board/ whiteboards in addition to multimedia projectors. The faculty members would use any of the facilities based on the course/content of teaching.
46. How does the department ensure that programme objectives are constantly met and
learning outcomes are monitored?
Course outcomes are evaluated through obtaining feedback from the students registered for the course. The feedback is obtained in a prescribed format. Each of the course outcomes is evaluated on a 1 to 5 scale, where 1 refers to very low level of achievement, 2 to low level of achievement, 3 to moderate level of achievement, 4 to high level of achievement and 5 to very high level of achievement. In case of credit seminar, minor project and dissertation/thesis, the scoring is obtained from the evaluators (including the supervisor/guide) of the credit seminar/minor project/dissertation.

By analyzing the results of program outcome assessment in terms of direct and indirect assessments, necessary actions are recommended to improve the program curriculum.
After each semester, faculty analyse and evaluate the collected data from each course and from all other sources (surveys).
The Programme coordinator discusses the results with faculty to identify the need for improvement. Prepare an action plan accordingly.
Once the action has been completed, data for that performance indicator should again be collected, analysed, and evaluated by the program assessment committee to see the performance.
This process continues until the performance improves to the target value.
The results are discussed with Department Academic Affairs Committee.
The same procedure is followed for alumni surveys, employer surveys, rubrics etc.
47. Highlight the participation of students and faculty in extension activities.
