The teaching-learning methods are mostly in the form of lectures. Models, charts, and

specimens were used to supplement the lecture method. In addition to that, tutorials and

seminars were conducted to bring out the students‟ latent potential.

Activity based learning (Group discussion and Quiz) were implemented in the classrooms

to enhance the interpersonal skills of the students.

Every department had published news letter that encouraged the students to learn about

new domains in their respective area.

Faculty members were encouraged to attend workshops, seminars, FDPs, conferences for

enriching their teaching ability.

Application development and case-study based discussions were adapted to explore the

learning potential in the relevant courses.

Workshops, seminars on thrust areas were organized in departments through experts

from Industry.

Aptitude trainings were offered to the students as a part of teaching-learning process for

Important points for the kind attention of the Parents

Dear Parents,

The IV, VI, and VIII semester classes commence on 7 th December 2015. Allthe above semester periods are very short having only 90 working days includingthe days meant for pre model and model examinations. The students have tocomplete a lot of work within a short period. Hence the Parents are kindly requestednot to permit their wards to avail frequent leave during this semester period forthe following reasons.

IV Semester (II Year): All the IV semester papers are considered as problamatic(tufffest) papers. Hence, regular attendance and more concentration are requiredto clear these IV semester papers.

VI Semester (III year): More number of training programs are proposed to beoffered to enable the students to face the campus interviews with confidence .Attending these training programs is most important for getting campus placement .Apart from attending these trainings, the students have to devote their time andenergy to prepare for the University examinations during this semester.

VIII Semester (IV year):The students have to complete their Major Project intime. Besides, they have to prepare for the University theory examinations also.Hence, all the students are expected to devote their time to attend to the abovework. The students selected at the campus interview will be permitted to join byauthorities of the companies, only if they qualify for the degree.

Marks in the Pre model and model examinations shall decide the majorpart of the internal marks. So, availing leave for the pre model and model examinationsmust be avoided at any cost as this would seriously affect the internal marks.

For the final year students, Fridays and Saturdays are allotted for Projectwork. The ‘Project work” is an important component and in some cases it decideson the spot placement. Hence, the final year students are advised to use theFridays and Saturdays only for completing projects and not for any other purposeas such an attitude shall affect the Project Work as well as their future.

All the students are requested not to cut the practical classes, as practicalsare very important not only to score more marks but also it will help to understandthe theory part of the subject.

Please spare your valuable time to talk to your son/daughter every dayand try to understand what he/she is doing in respect of his/her studies. Kindlyextend all your support to your son/daughter which will help them to come outsuccessfully. For any assistance from our side you may always feel free to contactthe respetive Coordinator / HOD any time during the working hours.
