Self-study Report
Weaknesses Lack of industries nearby. Poor communication skills of students at entry level due to rural back ground. Increase in the no of colleges. Less Scope for R&D and consultancy because of nural back ground. Opportunities: The department is accredited by NBA hence eligible for grant - in - aids by AICTE and other public sector agencies. Availability of qualified, experienced and trained faculty. Soft skills and related training by T&P Cell and association with alumni grabs the opportunities to raise the employability of the students. Continuous faculty development programmes at Institute. Scope for Industry Institute Interaction. Constraints: Because of more no. of Engineering Colleges quality of intake is poor, especially in rural Engineering Colleges (poor entry behavior of students). Lack of industries really. Future Plans: To establish centres of excellence in one or more thrust areas of Electrical Engineering. To enter into MOUs with reputed academic and Industrial international organizations. To establish research oriented laboratories. To attain a level of five years accreditation. To achieve 90% and above result. To achieve 90% placements among eligible candidates through campus selections.

b) Training imparted to the local public : NIL 35. SWOC analysis of the department and Future plans Strengths: Qualified and experienced faculty with good retention Active participation of faculty in research activities Well equipped and specious laboratories. State-of-Art equipment under MODROBS Scheme. Good interaction with professional bodies Weaknesses: Lack of Industrial research and consultancy. Lack of residential facilities for staff. Opportunities: Skill-set required by the leading MNCs and Public sector and intense training in soft skills and personality development by T & P Cell and association with alumni grabs the opportunities to make the students industry ready. Amicable management with generous attitude in the form of lucrative special pays and incentives with additional perks and allowances to attract highly qualified and efficient and veteran faculty. Constraints: Lack of good communication skills in English language and lack of exposure to the city based benefits. Poor quality of intake. Future Plans Planning to establish Post Graduate programme in the department in the near future for the benefit of the students of rural background. To enhance Industry Institute Interaction to attract leading MNCs to conduct campus recruitment.

Self-study Report
Weaknesses Lack of software industries in nearby place. Students are lacking communication skills at the entry level as many of them are coming from rural areas. Opportunities Amicable management attitude in the form of special pays and incentives attracting qualified and experienced faculty. Soft skills and related training by T&P Cell and association with alumni grabs the opportunities to raise the employability of the students. Constraints Because of more number of Engineering Colleges, quality of intake is poor, especially in rural Engineering Colleges. Future Plans To enter into MOUs with a couple of multinational companies. To take up R&D projects from funding agencies like DST, UGC and AICTE. To take up consultancy works of at least Rs.5 lakhs in next three years.

35. SWOC analysis of the department and Future plans Strengths: Obtained NBA accreditation second time for two years (2013-2015). 60% of staff are having PG degrees (1 Ph.D. and one faculty submitted Ph.D thesis) Department conducted AICTE Staff Development Program around 60 participants attended the program. Eminent Resource persons from IITs, IISC, Universities and companies attended the program. Established a Biometrics Research and development lab in 2009, first of its kind, to provide the new Research activities and training for the newly recruited faculty of all the in and around colleges. Department obtained MODROB scheme to strengthen Web Technology and Multimedia labs. Weaknesses: R& D work to be strengthened. Institute & Industry interaction process must be improved. Research initiatives to be increased like sponsoring staff to QIP programs with financial assistance. Opportunities: By conducting National conferences for Students / Staff in thrust areas of research. Maintaining Tie-ups with NITs and IITs research wings, some of the faculty may be trained in New Technological subjects to strengthen the knowledge level. Constraints: Rapid changes in technology and time bound Learning & Training skills for the faculty. Consultancy development and IT interacts, due to rural background. Future Plans Long term goals To start PG Program in our department To undertake research projects and consultancy works. To strengthen the industry-institute interaction Short Term Goals To conduct a National Level conference
