It is expected that major portion of the course work will be delivered by in-house faculty

In-house Faculty : 75%

Eminent academician: 15%

Technocrats from leading industry: 10%

Experts - one or two lectures

Notes: lectures under the category of experts will be institutionalized (planned in advanced , notified under academic calendar, having common time slots - the planning for this will be done one semester in advanced and experts identified and approved with CCM ; an action item for

TPO) and common across all institutional boundaries, this includes faculty, deans and students.

Incase, lectures by experts are not complied due to know or unknown reason/s faculty shall complete the course work

16

Faculty : strictly as per affiliating university syllabus

Eminent academician: Selected Topics of syllabus under the specified module/s – enhanced insight and better conceptual understanding and motivation to pursue the subject

Technocrat: Selected areas (sub-set of syllabus) of advancement/developments, growth, job opportunities , foresight – this will provide exposure to industry trends and practices and beyond syllabus boundaries, that will enrich the student knowledge and motivation

Expert: Motivations, inspirations and knowledge including sharing of life experiences and opportunities

17

Technology adoption : Methods (ICT, PPT, Whiteboard)

Philosophy - experiential learning : industry visits, virtual lab, laboratory demonstrations, technology-club, discussions with eminent academicians, technocrats.

Note: Funded Practice and experimentation Labs that work beyond institutional hours (technology-club or a pre-incubator), association with In-house consultancy projects and powered by skilling certification academies in strategic areas.

Subject length and depth, problem solving and followed by rigorous practice session (last 20% of the time after syllabus completion) that helps students (category wise based upon semester performance) to attempt and practice answering questions by writing -for examinations (University, etc.)

18

1. Its proposed that an eminent academician start the course (2 hours minimum).

2. The complete syllabus must be completed within 75% of the allocated hours as defined under the teaching scheme plan

3. 75% of the syllabus be taught by institute’s faculty.

4. 100% strategic coaching for preparing the students for University examination should be done by faculty, utilizing the last 20% of the time estimated for syllabus completion and 100% of time allocated for tutorials.

5. Classification of students: Rankers, Poor, General and lateral entry

19

1. Categorize students into three categories1. Poor (English, D-to-D, absentees, poor performance)

2. General

3. Rankers

Approach for theory (University)

1. Continuous module-wise assignments after completion of module, followed by Q&A

2. Last years University question papers solving (practice writing and answers under guidance of faculty)

3. Expected questions and answers generated by faculty –drill questions with answers

4. Final mock test

Approach for practical examination

1. Redo all experiments in a weeks time

2. Drill Q&A session by external and internal faculties

20

Experts (Industry [2 per course] and Academicians[2 percourse]) must contribute up to 25% in terms of teaching syllabus and going beyond.

Industry experts coming to teaching must be tapped for the purpose of : industry visits and tours [students], faculty visit and exposure, explore project and job opportunities [TPO], and consultancy and research and CoE

Academicians coming from institutes of repute : faculty will explore opportunities for examiners/evaluators/selection experts , explore joint project writing and submission, opportunities for guiding Ph.D , research paper writing, developing curricula , laboratories and centers of excellence
