Building, Laboratories; Experienced Faculty.• Case studies, field

trips, industrial visits, industrial training, projects, design

collections, various assignments related to apparel and textile

sectors are undertaken on a regular basis by students

Weakness: • Insufficient regular faculty Opportunity: • As per

available data India shall see over 60% “very young population”

by 2020; the average age of the population will be 29 years. 116

million people will be in this age group. This young population

with double income family earnings will have increased spending

Opportunities : 1. Huge potential for running courses in the fields

related to commerce and management; 2. Being located in

industrial hub of country, there is huge potential for running

Management Development Programs;

Challenges : 1. Competition from Private universities


Centre, Hoshiarpur

SWOT analysis done and following points emerged after

deliberations:

Strengths: Young and Dynamic Faculty, Transparency in

system, Eco-friendly green campus, Admissions strictly on All

India merit basis, Flexibility in designing own curriculum

Weaknesses: Remote Location, Lack of funds, Less industry in

nearby areas, Lacking in facilities of soft computing and

Opportunities: Development of rural technology, Starting of

interdisciplinary programme, Setting up of small scale enterprise

through entrepreneurship program, promotion of rural youth for

technology based learning

Challenges: Placement in reputed companies, Collaborative

ventures with industry/ Universities. To compete with marketing

strategy of private institutes. State-of-the-Art training of faculty

guidance by our students from Iran and other countries.f) The

syllabi are revised regularly. g) The students are regularly

engaged in out reach programmes/counseling activities. h) Many

foreign students come for Ph.D. in the department.The biggest

strength of the department is its proactive faculty.Due to

infrastructure and shortage of faculty members (vacant

positions)the department is unable to compete for UGC (SAP)

DSA II.The department immediately needs enhancement of the

laboratory and library facilities through greater inputs in terms

of computers, journals, books and research material.


Instrumentation and

Micro-electronics

Strength: Department is catering the needs of the researchers

through its SAIF facilities.

Weakness: We are lacking in the interpretation of data produced

from the SAIF instruments due to lack of skilled manpower.


Applied Management

Sciences

These sectoral management programmes have a strong

orientation towards social and ethical aspects of Indian ethos.

These management programmes aim at developing strategic

intent among budding management graduates, with equal

emphasis on pragmatism and industry orientation. This focus has

given us the distinctive advantage of creating a talented pool of

promising managers. The faculty of UIAMS has been making

tremendous efforts to develop social and emotional quotient

among participants. Strong interventions by faculty of allied

departments further nurture and strengthen vibrant academic

environs


Engineering &

Technology

The SWOT analysis has been carried out and the major of which

are :- Strengths: SEection Process of Panjab University is

stringent and rigorous to ensure high quality faculty, those are

performing consistently in academics and research. This clearly

revealed present merit of the university at national level as

recognized by MHRD, GoI. • Admissions to all the different

programs of the university are through the national level

competition test which devoid of any reservation based on the

state domicile. • UIET being a department of university possesses

and inherits state-of-are infrastructure in terms of Laboratories,

Lecture Halls, Library, Sports Ground, Gymnasium Hall,

Swimming Pool, medical Dispensary, Student Centre, Hostels

etc.• UIET has been executing sponsored projects from various

63 | P a g e

agencies such as Department of Science and Technology (DST),

All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) etc.

Amounting to the funding of more than 100 lakhs.• The faculty

has published a good number of research papers in National and

International referred Journals with commendable impact factor.

Weaknesses • Since the selection process of the Panjab

University is stringent and rigorous, it is difficult to find good

number of people with excellent academic and research record.

So, there is shortage of faculty in UIET.

• UIET being a new institute, infrastructure is being developed

and number of facilities is in the process of being created.

• There is a need to strengthen the supporting and technical staff

by conducting training programs for them.

• There is need to strengthen the laboratory equipments as per

the latest need and technological development.

• There is a need to motivate the students to organize more

technical events in collaboration with sponsorship from

industries.

Opportunities• Starting of new M.E. courses in the field of

Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering and bio-

technology • The non-Ph.D. faculty can be encouraged to

improve their qualification for doing Ph.D. under QIP and the

faculty already having Ph.D. degree can take-up their Post

Doctorate Fellowship in Foreign Universities/Institution of repute

in India. • UIET aims to establish the Centre of Innovative

Research and Centre of Excellence in the field of Signal

Processing, Mechatronics, Robotics etc. • Research facilities can

be enhanced by sending proposals to UGC, DST, AICTE, TEQIP

etc • Faculty need to be encouraged to enhance their knowledge

by interacting with industries and to get some projects from

industries

Threats• The faculty may be attracted to join foreign universities

which are going to established their centres in India so retaining

faculty is bigger challenge • Getting good students with excellent

academic record become difficult due to upcoming National and

International Institute of repute. • Faculty may shift to the

upcoming IITs/NITs as more and more new institutes are

established. • Since the technology is evolving at a very fast rate,

so there is always a threat of man power lagging behind the

technology • Due to the fast changing technology, equipments

need to be updated for laboratories.



Strength of the department is well qualified faculty and state of

art infrastructure for providing industry/research training to

students.
