35. SWOC analysis of the department and Future plans

Strengths The Institution is surrounded by lush green fields providing serene

atmosphere. Availability of qualified, experienced and committed faculty. Continuous upgrading of infrastructure facilities and Teaching and

learning Methodologies. Conducive atmosphere for the all round development of the students. Well equipped labs with modern equipment.

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.

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 MNC’s 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 MNC’s to

conduct campus recruitment.

Strengths Availability of qualified and experienced faculty. Well equipped laboratories with latest systems and required software. Availability of research facilities in thrust areas like Mobile Computing,

Network Security, etc. Systematic monitoring of teaching-learning process. Active participation of alumni for career guidance and improvement.

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 IIT’s, 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 NIT’s and IIT’s 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

Strengths of Department: Building research collaborations with industry and the educational community Producing quality graduates who are informed by advanced research-led

teaching and can meet the demands of business today. Applying knowledge in a way that helps to address the theoretical and

practical challenges that face communities around the world. Has alumni association registered so as to create a network among the passed

out students. Department has its student association and regularly conducts programs and

events which are student centric. Well furnished e-class rooms & conference room for group discussion &

Internet with Wi-Fi zone. Dedicated professors and eager student’s works as an ideal combination for

information generation. Weakness:

Lack of residential facilities for fraternity The academic staff also needs to focus on research. The permanent faculty needs to engage in refresher courses

Opportunity: To conduct cross-faculty courses To use Moodle as a mode of teaching – learning - evaluation methodology To design short courses for working professionals To develop & motivate rural entrepreneurs

Constraints: It’s a challenge to sustain the habit of extra reading among the students. With

a subject as Business Management, it is important to be up to date with the latest.

To constantly upgrade the syllabi for a dynamic subject like Business Management.

Future plans Entrepreneurial spirit – e-cell : the department plans to develop the E-cell into

a functional unit with a proper structure and a diary of entrepreneurial activities.
