1.3 CRITERIA WISE SUMMARY
Curricular Aspects

The Academic Committee's primary responsibility is to serve as a conduit for communication between students
and faculty. This committee's goal is to keep students aware of their academic standards while also reducing
inhibitions. It serves as a forum for teachers and students to interact on a regular basis. In addition, it organizes
academic achievement functions for students in order to recognize their academic excellence. It takes up a lot of
space and responsibility for instilling best practices in future student communities for a brighter future.

For each topic, each faculty member creates a detailed course plan that includes the textbook (s), reference
book(s), web resource(s), and technological tool(s) to be used. It also includes topics that will be covered
outside of the curriculum and will only be distributed to students after the Head of the Department has
approved them.

To communicate the subject, new and innovative teaching strategies are used in addition to the traditional
lecture style. Learner-centric strategies such as collaborative learning, video lectures, quizzes, group
discussions, and so on are used to encourage students' active participation.

Faculty members prepare solutions for mathematical and analytical subjects, as well as assignments and
assessments that include previous university problems and other important questions. A periodic review of the
syllabus coverage and students' regularity is conducted by the HOD/Dean Academic, who is followed by the
principal. Class representatives meet on a regular basis to solicit suggestions for improving the teaching-
learning process.

Teaching-learning and Evaluation

The Institute gets students admitted to different programs from diverse backgrounds and through social
reservations defined by the State Government of Andhra Pradesh. The institute has a well-defined mechanism
to assess the learning levels of the students. Advanced learners and slow learners are identified, and appropriate
measures are taken accordingly. For advanced learners, measures taken are training program, guidance for
placements, publication of research papers, etc. Measures like mentoring for academic-related issues and
conducting remedial classes- are taken for slow learners.

The teaching-learning process is student-centric, which is made effective by technologically enriching faculty
members with the help of various training programs. The teaching-learning process is focused on experiential
and participatory learning. The teachers use various innovative teaching methods, a Learning Management
System (LMS), and ICT tools to increase the involvement of students in this process. The institute has qualified
and experienced faculty as per norms. Faculty members are encouraged to improve their qualifications and to
participate in research activities.

The college has given emphasis to implementing reforms in the evaluation process. In the Centralized
Examinations and evaluation system, internal examinations are conducted at the central level, and end semester
examinations are conducted at the university level. The complete process is transparent and adheres strictly to
the academic calendar. A set of Programme educational objectives (PEOs), Programme specific outcomes
(PSOs), and Programme outcomes (POs) are formulated for every Programme based on the "outcome-based
education" approach. Course Outcomes (COs) are defined for all subjects and mapped with POs and PSOs.

Page 4/105 22-08-2022 02:58:07

Attainment levels of COs, POs, and PSOs are calculated. Appropriate corrective measures are implemented
based on the attainment levels perceived every year.

2.2 Catering to Student Diversity
2.2.1 The institution assesses the learning levels of the students and organises
special Programmes for advanced learners and slow learners

Response:

The Institute attracts students from diverse backgrounds through the admission process defined by the
State Government of Andhra Pradesh. The students are provided with complete knowledge of the
governance system and all academic processes during the first three weeks of their engineering journey.
The institute has designed and arranged an induction program involving administrative and senior faculty.
College also provides the bridge course for the freshers, who are from different academic backgrounds to
fill the gap in their academics (http://www.acet.ac.in/?p=Bridge%20Course). Students are exposed to
student-centered learning experiences, including academic rules and regulations, curriculum design and
structure, teaching-learning methodologies, and formative and summative assessment patterns etc. They
are also well-informed about outcome-based education.

The college has a well-established counseling/proctoring system. Students are assigned to faculty members
who act as proctors/counselors. They meet with their allocated students on a regular basis to monitor their
academic progress. A student scoring less than 40% marks in the internals of the subject, failing in the
semester exams and having less than 75% attendance is considered as an academically slow learner.
Counselors continuously track these students and keep their parents up to date on their progress. The class
teacher also keeps focus on the academic performance of the students and identifies the students who
perform badly in their academics. Counselors engage with such students and help them by assisting with
assignment completion and arranging remedial classes for them. In the case of advanced learners, faculty
encourage and motivate them to perform better in academics as well as provide them different platforms
such as participating in workshops, presentations and internships. Faculty also encourage these students in
achieving campus placements (http://www.acet.ac.in/?p=Placements) and higher education for their
professional development.

2.5 Evaluation Process and Reforms

2.5.1 Mechanism of internal assessment is transparent and robust in terms of frequency and mode

Response:

There are various strategies to meet the evaluation methods, we are strictly adhering to JNTUKuniversity
norms and conditions for internal evaluation. There are various time slots allocated to conduct descriptive
and online tests (Quiz) for each and every department. Based on the University academic schedule, each
faculty prepares the internal examination and the assignments considering the entire coverage of the COs
and also the taxonomy as appropriate. While preparing the assignment questions, faculty will try to cover
all the possible taxonomies to the maximum extent.

Two Mid Examinations are conducted for students as per university norms in each semester

Page 32/105 22-08-2022 02:58:08

Final Mid marks = (Best of (Mid-1/Mid-2) marks x 0.8 + Least of (Mid-1/Mid-2) marks x 0.2)

Each faculty prepares the scheme of evaluation and evaluates the student answer scripts as per the
scheme. The answer scripts will be distributed to students in the classroom and the scheme will be
explained. The discrepancies/grievances, if any will be resolved by the teacher before submitting
the student performance to the college examinations section.
We have planned in such a way the evaluation is completed from time to time and submitted to the
exam cell. The same has been displayed in the concerned department notice board and every
student will be aware of their own performance.
In addition to that, to enrich students’ knowledge, we are conducting guest lectures, seminars, and
technical workshops on recent trends. It will help the students to interact with the resource persons
from reputed educational institutions and industries to improve their skills.
For assessment of seminars, summer internships, and projects, the faculty coordinator prepares a
schedule of presentations of students in slots in consultation with the HOD and is communicated to
students. Students present their work or report to the coordinator and evaluate on the basis of
various parameters set by the respective coordinator.
For assessment of laboratory course, an internal practical viva is conducted by a respective faculty
member at the end of the course
Also, the Tech-Fests like “VEDA” increase the student’s strength and establish good relationships
among the neighborhood Institutions. Moreover, the students are allowed to engage themselves in
social activities like NSS, Swatch Bharat the same has been evaluated on their quality of work
culture.

coordinator/committee is constituted for the smooth conduction of internal examinations.

Two internal assessment tests Mid-1 & Mid-2 are conducted in each semester at the department
level
The evaluated internal answer scripts are distributed among the students in the classroom, if there
are any corrections in evaluation that will be rectified immediately by the faculty of the same
subject.
Internal examination results are displayed on the notice board for the convenience of students
before submitting to the examination section of the university.

Page 33/105 22-08-2022 02:58:08

6.1.2 The effective leadership is visible in various institutional practices such as decentralization and
participative management

Response:

The administrative structure at Aditya College of Engineering and Technology (ACET) includes the
Governing mechanism with inculcating various practices for decentralization and participative
management headed by Chairman, Vice-Chairman, Principal, Deans, Head of Departments, Committee
Coordinators, Staff In-charges, Lab In-charges, System Administrators, Student Proctors and Class
Representatives to promote quality improvement in all fields with excellence. In execution, the
administrative setup functions with a decentralized decision making at all levels. Principal is the Head of
the Institution and he efficiently proceeds and ensures the smooth conduction of all administrative and
academic activities.

The Principal periodically organizes meetings with the department Heads, faculty members. The
management ensured decentralization by creating Deans to help the Head of the Institution in day-to-day
activities at the top of a multi-tier system of administration with HoDs, lab in-charges etc., down the ladder
on the academic front.

Along with the Principal, the HODs and faculty are encouraged to give suggestions that help in the growth
of the organization. Faculty members are made part of the decision-making process at all levels. They are
given a chance to present their views and suggestions by making them as members of various committees
in college like Career counseling cell, Entrepreneurship development cell, Grievance redressal cell, etc.
There are 33 committees that work together to explore opportunities, plan, organize, implement, and
oversee all of the institution’s activities. Even at the departmental level, the decentralized mechanism
exists. There is freedom for all faculty members to express their thoughts and freedom to do various
research-related activities. In addition, the institution has constituted several committees with faculty as in-
charge of those committees to groom leadership at the faculty level and every faculty member will be a
part of at least one or more committees. The stakeholders of the institute – Faculty members, Students,
Parents, Alumni, and Employers have a participative role in these committees.

Feedback taken from all stakeholders is very important in developing and modifying Institute policy.
Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) develops a perspective plan based on feedback from all
stakeholders. This plan is presented to Governing Body for discussion and approval. The Institution’s
policy encourages all employees to participate in decision-making and the implementation of the
decentralized decision-making policy. Various committees at the Institute level are constituted to oversee
academic and administrative activities that lead to the realization of the Institute’s vision and goal.

This presents that the institution’s administration is decentralized through committees and that the
management is participative.

6.3.5 Institutions Performance Appraisal System for teaching and non-teaching staff

Response:

Institutions Performance Appraisal System for teaching and Non-teaching staff:

The success of any Educational Institution depends on the quality of its staff- both Teaching and Non-
teaching. Together they play a significant role and are the backbone of the Institution. Institutions cannot
achieve their goals “Vision and mission” without them. To achieve the targets, the staff need to be
motivated towards their work. The Performance Appraisal (PA) is one of the performance management
tools that are widely used to measure the productivity of staff in different contexts.

Page 71/105 22-08-2022 02:58:10

Performance appraisal for teaching staff

The faculty appraisal is undertaken with following objectives:

• To assist teachers in their professional development and career planning.

• To assist teachers to reflect about their potential and to carry out their duties more effectively

• To provide judgment to support promotions

• To provide feedback to staff about their behaviour, attitudes, skills or subject expertise

• To recognise the achievements of teachers and help them to identify ways of improving their knowledge,
skills, attitudes and ultimately performance.

• To improve the quality of education for students

In short, it would be utilized as a tool to facilitate growth, development, efficiency and effectiveness of the
teaching-learning process in the Institution.

Name, qualifications, experience, subjects taught, results, feedback of the students, pass percentage,
mentoring, discipline, conferences/workshops attended, books published, research publications in
conferences and journals, administrative responsibilities taken along with the remarks of HOD and the
Principal will be considered for the appraisal of teaching staff.

The process of appraisal comprises of two parts:

A. Self-appraisal format to be filled by every faculty.

B. Appraisal by HOD & Principal: This would also involve a review of the self-appraisal documents
submitted by the faculty.

Performance appraisal for non-teaching staff:

The employee appraisal is undertaken with following objectives:

To assist employees to reflect about their potential and to carry out their duties more effectively
To provide feedback to staff about their behaviour, attitudes, skills or subject-expertise
To recognise the achievements of employees and help them to identify ways of improving their
knowledge, skills, attitudes and ultimately performance.
To assist employees in their professional development and career planning.

In short, it would be utilized as a tool to facilitate growth, development, efficiency and effectiveness of the
administration and facility management process in the institution. Name, qualifications, experience,
discipline and responsibilities taken along with the remarks of Lab In charge and HOD will be considered
for the appraisal of non-teaching staff.

The process of appraisal comprises of two parts:

Page 72/105 22-08-2022 02:58:10

1.Self-appraisal format to be filled by every non-teaching faculty
2.Appraisal by Lab In charge and & HOD

Appraisal formats are asked to fill-in by the staff members for self-evaluation and HOD will interact with
every employee and remarks will be posted and forwarded to the Principal for evaluation. Final evaluation
will be carried out by the panel consist the Management representative, the Director and the Principal and
appraisal will be made in terms of increment/promotion based on the final evaluation.

The Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) was established in Aditya College of Engineering &
Technology in the year 2015 as a post-accreditation quality provisions measure, in accordance with the
National Action Plan of the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC), Bangalore, for
performance evaluation, assessment, accreditation, and quality up gradation of higher education
institutions. From then onwards IQAC is an integral part of the institution working with a goal towards the
development and quality enhancement in various aspects. IQAC is involved in all the college level
committees and professional bodies where academic, administrative and student centric programs are in
progress.

IQAC plays a major role in the participation of NIRF and also in the other Institution ranking by various
organizations like Career 360, T-School survey by Data Quest, The Week survey.

IQAC conducts Institutional Annual Academic Audit and also encourages the faculty to participate in
various National & International Conferences and also to attend various development programs conducted
by other reputed Institutions. IQAC takes necessary initiatives to encourage faculty members to do the
Certifications programs conducted by organizations like NPTEL – Swayam, Coursera, Redhat Academy,
Oracle Academy and AWS Academy to improve the quality of teaching.

As one of the best practices IQAC has initiated is the incentives policy to faculty members who have
published research articles in Journals with good Impact Factor and also in the Journals which are indexed
by Scopus, Web of Science and SCI.

As another best practice IQAC has initiated the culture of publishing research articles by the undergraduate
as well as postgraduate students. IQAC also conducts the annual Technical Fest to the students named
“VEDA” in memory of Sir Mokshagundam Visweswarayya. As a quality measure IQAC insists the
faculty members and students to use the College Learning Management System (MOODLE) and also
initiated the policy towards converting the classrooms as ICT enabled classrooms.

IQAC also initiated the culture of Startups and Entrepreneur Development among the students. Startups
like 3Dclix, Karanam Technologies, Agumentik, Picshorts Pvt. Ltd have evolved from our College.

IQAC also initiated the student Internship program in the Institution to the students of 2nd and 3rd year, so
that the students are exposed to the real time challenges in the industry and there can be drastic change in
the thinking ability of the students.

IQAC has initiated an activity towards enhancing skill sets of students of all programs by making them to
participate in the programs conducted by Andhra Pradesh State Skill Development Corporation (APSSDC)
and also an MoU is signed between our College and APSSDC, in addition to this another MoU is also
signed between our College and Centre of Excellence in Maritime and Shipbuilding (CEMS).
