WEAKNESSES  Insufficient regular faculty members and supporting staff (Technical and Ministerial) in all the Departments.  Inadequate space for departments and faculty chambers.  Insufficient funds from state Govt in various budgetary provisions.  Lack of Academic Autonomy of Institute.

OPPORTUNITY  Institute is well connected by Road/ Rail which allows creating growth opportunities in form of industry-institute interaction and potential for research and consultancy.  Being the leading institute, it creates opportunities for faculty and students to create a platform for better interaction and creative competition with other technical Institutes in the form of seminars/ quizzes/ conferences for overall growth.  The institute is surrounded by number of software industries such as INFOSYS, Tech Mahindra, WIPRO, TCS, STPI, OCAC; a number of steel and power industries in core sector like NALCO, NTPC, UAL, EMAMI, BHUSHAN, JINDAL, LANCO, GMR, NINL, MESCO, NAV BHARAT and organizations like CTTC, CIPET, CIFA, ILS, thus posing opportunities for future technical collaborations.  Expansion to become University in future may be easier and feasible due to availability of free Govt. land, water in the river Brahmani in the periphery.  Vicinity of other academic (Govt.) institutes like IIM, NISER, IIT, IIIT, Institute of Physics, IISER, IMMT, OUAT, NITTTR, AIIMS, NIFT, VSSUT, NIT etc. offers scope for strengthening joint academic programmes for mutual growth.

6 CHALLENGES  Insufficient funding from state Govt. for rapid and timely growth of the institute. The grant-in-aid provided by the State Government is insufficient for growth of infrastructure and other academic activities.  To upgrade the college to a Technical University.  To upgrade the institute to a National Level leading institution.

Based on SWOC analysis, provide the “strategic plan” developed for institutional development. Based on the above four broad issues, the strategic plan aims at making IGIT to serve important national needs. IGIT’s strategic plan has thrust on: increased organizational viability through structural reforms and institutional development. It includes a quantum increase in experienced man power capable of undertaking focused research and development for the industry along with increased energy efficiency, environmental management, cost- effectiveness, international competitiveness, and the development of undeveloped/ disadvantaged sectors o f populations, and the large r u r a l sector of the c o u n t r y. Keeping in view the above priorities, IGIT has decided to implement its programs and focus its energies on the development of research and educational excellence in a broad domain and on developing its capacity. The requires the development of skilled physical and human capacities and adjustments to the curriculum, both in its technical aspects as well as in its human, management and service aspects, to create complete professionals capable of a high level of technical competence and innovation with committed social action. The above challenging outward thrust must be supported by a high level smart program of organizational development and internal structural reform. In order to achieve the above challenges, IGIT must be in a position to attract meritious students, recruit a large number of highly qualified faculty members to fill in its various departments, and substantially improve its administrative performance. TEQIP’s design is particularly well suited to support IGIT in the above important strategic directions to convert this into a Technical University of the State. The above requires full autonomy in Academics, Administrative/Managerial, and Finance, under an independent Board of Governors/Management, raising to a Technical University of the State for achieving financial stability and vitality through a clear block funding agreement, coupled with dynamic generation of resources, and engaging in a systematic process of organizational change.

1. Academic Objective 2. Employment Objective 3. Research Objective 4. Industry Objective 5. Professional Objective The vision and mission statements are displayed in the institute website, institute calendar, and also in the entrance area. In addition, all the departments have displayed the vision and mission statements in the various buildings they occupy in the campus. Further the brochures of the various Faculty Development Programmes and the workshops/conferences organized by the various departments of the institute include the vision and mission statements thus enabling the vision and mission statements to have a wide coverage.

The students are informed periodically about the institute’s objectives by their class counsellors during the counselling sessions they have every month and also during the class committee meetingsheld in each semester. The parents are informed at the very beginning to

21 their wards entry into the institute and also repeatedly reminded of the same by the faculty during the Parent Teacher meeting.

1.1.2 How does the institution develop and deploy action plans for effective implementation of the curriculum? Give details of the process and substantiate through specific example(s). The initiation for effective implementation of the curriculum is planned by the faculty members, the students, the Alumni and the stakeholders of the institute. On regular basis, the Director of the Institute has been taking feedbacks from the students, faculty members, Alumni and the stakeholders for effective implementation of the curriculum. The institution has developed and practices its extensive action plan for effective implementation of the curriculum through the following measures: Prior to the commencement of classes, individual lesson plans are prepared for each subject that is offered during the semester. Lecture notes are also prepared in advance and 20 senior faculty members contribute by rendering advice to the faculty about the notes, problems, teaching methodology etc. The Lesson Plans are kept with the teacher adviser of each Semester.

As far as laboratory classes are concerned, in addition to the lesson plan, lab manuals are prepared for each experiment and distributed to the students. Assessment of students is done on each lab class as per the University curriculum.

Further, in order to get a real time exposure to the industries regular study tour programs held to different industries. For example, the department of Electrical Engineering arranges for its faculty to take its students to any industry or site to impart an idea on practical applications of the subject. Seminars and Workshops in collaboration with industries are held regularly to prepare the students more industry-ready. Many of the students are also going for in-plant training, industrial projects and internships with stipend in various institutes/ research organizations.

Moreover, modern teaching facilities like smart class rooms, video/audio facilities, technical video resources (on-line) are utilized for an effective delivery of the subject material to the students.

1.1.3 What type of support (procedural and practical) do the teachers receive (from the University and/or institution) for effectively translating the curriculum and improving teaching practices? At the University level, Faculty Development Training Programmes (FDTP) are conducted in various subjects to enable teachers to effectively translate the curriculum in such a manner that the students will readily grasp the subject. The institute in turn sponsors its faculty members to attend these FDTP programmes conducted by IITs and NITs.

Further, different departments with sponsorship from TEQIP-II organize FDP for various subjects to benefit the faculty members. In addition, the faculty members are sponsored from TEQIP-II to attend seminars, workshops, guest lectures and special training in teaching methodologies. 22 Senior faculty members are encouraged to visit junior faculty classes to offer appropriate suggestions. This ultimately enhances the teaching methodologies adopted by the faculty members and results in effective translation of the curriculum.

Decentralization: Decision making power were shifted to Departments, Offices with an objective to improve administrative efficiency, enhance better delivery and ensure adequate representation to the lower of governance. 2. Delegation: Responsibilities are shifted to various Departments/Offices with an increased accountability. 3. Devolution: Financial power as well as the decision making power has been sifted to various committee by appointing a faculty member. The faculty member in charge of a particular committee/ Section is known as Professor-In-Charge(PIC).Therefore the committee, such as Purchase committee, Transport Section, OIC Academic, PIC Time Table have been formed. The college has also formed the Anti-ragging committee to protect the students from ragging. As a part of Administrative Body a yearly plan for their entity. Area of growth is identified and investment is made only on that area. ON approval, the Departments moves forward to achieve the milestone set for them. The college authority is giving time to time some money to invest about to procure laboratory equipments which are utilized by the Diploma, B.Tech and M.Tech students during their lab experiments. Periodical reviews are conducted on key area such as Teaching Learning Process, Administration, Finance Management and Revenue Generation. Broad areas of review are: 1. Faculty-strength, expertise, training and performance 2. Student-strength for each course offered by the Department; monitoring of students performance; 3. Infrastructure-level of Infrastructure provided for the course content, augmentation required; 4. Research & Development-Publications, product development, placement, Industry- Institute Interaction, Consultancy and Research; 5.Funding-External funding and status of projects; and 6. Accredition-Accredition of courses. The benefits of administrative decentralization are: 1. Better communication and human relationships are promoted; 2. Clear demarcation of duties and boundaries; 3. Departments/Offices can be innovative and creative in their working style and other offices can also adopt the same style of functioning , and 105 4.
