The National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC), Bangalore proposes that every accredited institution should establish an Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) as a post-accreditation quality sustenance measure, in pursuance of its action plan in terms of performance evaluation, assessment and accreditation and quality up-gradation of institutions of higher education. The IQAC is a part of the institution’s system and work towards realisation of the goals of quality enhancement and sustenance, since quality enhancement is a continuous process. The key task of the IQAC is to evolve a system for conscious, consistent and catalytic improvement in the overall performance of institutions. IQAC will channelize all efforts and measures of the institution towards promoting its holistic academic excellence, during the post-accreditation period.
The first step towards internalization and institutionalization of quality enhancement initiatives is the work of the IQAC. In all the constituents of the institution, its success depends upon the sense of belongingness and participation that it can implant. The IQAC will be a facilitative and participative voluntary system of the institution and it also has the potential to become a vehicle for steering in quality enhancement in terms of working out planned interventionist strategies thereby removing deficiencies and enhancing quality.
The primary goal of IQAC is
IQAC shall evolve mechanisms and procedures for

| 7.2.2.4 Practice | |||||||||||
| Advanced learners are identified through their performance in examinations and other co-curricular activities. The course in-charge and the mentors take care in every aspect of the student encouraging them to be all-rounders and thereby motivate them to take part in extracurricular activities, like National / International conferences, Workshops, Seminars etc. so that the students can improve their innovative and creative ideas. Those who are slow learners, the concerned mentor or faculty motivate them in a genial way and help them to achieve their personal goals. They offer a parental approach to slow learners for analyzing their problems, motivate them to improve their academic performance and also help to clarify their doubts regarding the concerned challenging subjects. An exam point of view special care is given to such students to help them make an easy pass. |
|||||||||||
| Experiential learning | |||||||||||
| Teaching based on Anna university curriculum is followed by all the course instructors using teaching aids like PPT, Video Lectures, Mind Map for specific subjects, and Google class room to enrich the day to day teaching learning process and make it interesting. This paves a way to make the students understand the engineering concepts very easily and expands their technical skill. Guest lectures on contents beyond syllabus are organized by departments through experts from the various industries, eminent personalities from reputed institutions, to make the students aware of the recent developments in the various fields. |
|||||||||||
| Participative learning | |||||||||||
| Knowledge sharing is emphasised and students are motivated to deliver lectures on technical topics and share their knowledge and experience with others. Peer learning of advanced learners to help the slow learners while preparing for the continuous assessment tests is also a key aspect for enhancing the performance of both the slow and fast learners greatly. | |||||||||||
| Centralized Examination Cell | |||||||||||
| For effectively implementing the reforms as advised by Anna University, the College has an exclusive centralized examination cell headed by a Head of the Department to conduct the internal assessment and model examinations meticulously.

| Analysis of Students Performance | |||||||||||
| The Students’ progress and learning outcomes are monitored through the continuous evaluations, tutorials, periodic tests, quiz, laboratory exercises, projects and assignments. The College conducts two internal assessment tests and a model exam in all courses and reviews the performance of students in the faculty meeting at departmental level and in the result analysis meeting under the chairmanship of the Director and the Principal. At the end of each semester, student feedback is taken course wise and performance of students is discussed, analyzed and recorded in terms of grades. Slow learner students are encouraged by conducting special coaching classes and remedial classes, to identify their problems and solve them. Course exit survey is conducted at the end of each semester by individual course instructor. This in turn helps in arriving at the PO assessment as each CO is mapped with certain POs and PSOs. Besides this, the exit survey is taken from students for indirect assessment of the PO’s. The alumni and employer surveys are taken for indirect assessment of the PSOs. |
