





It has been located in a rural area.
It attracts average quality students.
Performance in competitive examinations is not up to the mark.
Placements are not upto the mark.
Poor communications skills of the students.
Consultancy is limited to civil department.
Inadequate funds for Research and Development
Opportunities
 Our students can be employed in large number in the industry
coming up around our district and all over the world.
 Several industries are coming up nearby and we can have
interaction with them to impart training for students.
 As the industries are coming up there is a great scope for taking up
consultancy works, Counseling, Guest lectures etc.,
 Proximity to SHAR so as to enable our students to pursue projects
with which they can acquire knowledge that increases their
employability.
 Scope to introduce new courses.
 The industries are getting located in large numbers in and around
Nellore District in the developmental process (Small Economic
Zones)-Power Plants ( Reliance, Madhu Kon, Simhapuri etc.,),
Steel Plants (NELCAST, Lanco, SBQ etc.,), Apachi foot wear,
BHEL at Mannavaram. Besides these industries, quite many
industries are coming up to avail Krishnapatnam Port facility.
Krishnapatnam Port exists with 10 Berths and another 25 Berths
are coming up. This increases the employability.
Challenges
 In view of mushrooming of colleges in the adjacent towns, students
with better ranks are not coming to join.
 As Government is not reimbursing the fee, in contrast to its
promise, lot of uncertainty is prevailing which is slowing down the
Institution progress.

2.1.2 Explain in detail the process of admission put in place for UG, PG
and Ph.D. programmes by the College. Explain the criteria for
admission (Ex. (i) merit, (ii) merit with entrance test, (iii) merit,
entrance test and interview, (iv) common test conducted by state
agencies and National agencies (v) others followed by the College?
 The admission process for both UG and PG courses are under the
control of APSCHE.
 The college is not offering any Ph.D. programmes at present.
 For UG programmes, the Andhra Pradesh State Council for Higher
Education (APSCHE) fills 70% of seats under Category- A through
ONLINE counseling based on the EAMCET rank, reservations and
priority of branch and college opted by the students in phased manner.
 In the first phase the student opts his/her order of preferences to any
branch of specialization in any college through online. Based on the
rank and reservation of the student, the APSCHE allots the branch and
college to the students through online process based on his/her order of
choices, EAMCET rank, reservations and the availability of the seats.
If the student is interested to join in the allotted college, he/she has to
report to the respective college. If the student is not interested to join in
the allotted college he/she may go opt for second phase counseling,
and in that case the allotted seat in the first phase counseling may get
cancelled.
 In the second phase counseling also the student has to do the same
exercise as done in first phase for the left over seats in the first phase
counseling. After completion of second phase the APSCHE finally
allot the branch and college to the student based on his/her choice and
the availability. If the student is satisfied in the second phase allotment
then student has to report the college. If any student has not reported
the college before the last date then his/her admission automatically
gets cancelled in that college. The left over seats under Category – A
after the second phase counseling are filled by the college through spot
admission as per the guidelines of APSCHE. For filling the left over

the seats to the students. The college strictly follows the reservation
and merit in filling left over seats through spot admissions. The list of
students admitted under the spot admissions are sent to APSCHE for
ratification.
 In case of PG programmes the 70% of seats under Category- A are
filled by APSCHE through online counseling based on the rank in
GATE or PGECET, which is conducted by Andhra Pradesh state
government. The students qualified in GATE and PGECET have to
give the options through online based on their order of preference. The
APSCHE give the first priority to the students who qualified in GATE,
after completion of GATE qualified students, the APSCHE fill the
remaining seats based on the rank in PGECET. For admissions in PG
programme also the APSCHE conduct the counseling in two phases as
explained earlier as in the case of UG programmes. After completion
of the second phase counseling the remaining left over seats under
Category – A are filled by the college through spot admissions similar
to UG programmes.
 The college fills the 30% of seats under category- B through the
guidelines of APSCHE. The admissions under Category-B are purely

performance of the teacher. At the end of every semester the college
takes online feedback from the students using standard questionnaire
with four options as in the given Table2.9. The questionnaire evaluates
the performance of each faculty in various aspects like teaching,
communication, behavior, subject knowledge etc. Every student has to
select the option for each question against each faculty who handles
the subject in that semester. Based on the selected options by the
student faculty are rated in the scale 5 to 1. If any faculty gets rank
below 3, then the Head of the Institution personally interact with
faculty and informs the reasons for less feedback, if necessary
counseling will be given to improve the performance for the next
semester. Based on the feedback the faculty can do self assessment and
can improve their performance.

How often does the College organize academic development
programmes for its faculty, leading to enrichment of teachinglearning process?
 Curricular Development
 The college has received an Autonomous status with effect from the
academic year 2013-14. For design and development of the curriculum
the college formed various committees with faculty to interact various
Institutions and Industries. The faculty members interacted with
experts in those organizations and their suggestions are incorporated in
the curriculum.
 Teaching-learning methods
 Every year before the commencement of the academic year, the Head
of the Institution and Head of the departments conduct the workshop to
newly recruited faculty about teaching-learning methods. The college
also invites senior faculty members from various reputed academic
Institutions to train the faculty members about teaching-learning
methods.
 Examination reforms
 The college had made many reforms from the current academic year.
NBKR Institute of Science & Technology:: Vidyanagar
Page 59
Re-Accreditation Report 2014




The college reformed the examination pattern by shifting from
marks system to grade system.
Before autonomy the internal evaluation of each student is based
on the descriptive questions. From the academic year in view to
prepare the students for GATE and other competitive exams, the
objective questions are incorporated along with descriptive
questions in the internal examinations.
Earlier to the autonomy status in semester based system the student
has to write two internal mid-exams, out of which the best marks
obtained is considered as the final internal marks. Sometimes few
students writes only one internal mid-exam and the marks obtained
in that exam are considered as final internal marks. Now the
reforms have made by providing 80% weightage to best
performance in any of mid-exam and 20% to the other mid-exam.
If any student writes only one mid exam the final internal marks
are calculated as 80% of marks obtained in that exam. Hence the
students write both the mid exams for improving their performance
and as well as knowledge in the subject.
In case of the first year theory courses, the student has to write
three internal mid-exams. The final internal marks are considered
by giving weightage 40 % each for the better two mid examination
and 20% for the other mid examinations marks.
 Content / knowledge management
 Three elective subjects have to be studied by the student during third
and final years of the course. Research and industry oriented subjects
are identified as elective subjects.

Any other (please specify)
 The faculty members are deputed to the faculty development
programmes, workshops, seminars, and conferences etc., organized by
National and International professional Institutions to update their
knowledge and to learn innovative teaching- learning approaches.
2.4.13 What are the teaching innovations made during the last five years?
How are innovations rewarded?
 Many initiations are taken during the last five years for teaching
innovations and they are

Cite a few examples which have positively impacted the evaluation
management system?
 Evaluation methodologies and processes to be followed by each
Department are documented and submitted in comprehensive academic
plan in the beginning of the academic year. Students are informed the
same during the orientation programmes.
 The major reforms are initiated in the evaluation process. Some of the
reforms are given below;

Student performance is evaluated in terms of grades than marks.

Importance is given to two internal exams conducted in a semester

2.5.3 What measures have been taken by the Institution for continuous
evaluation of students and ensuring their progress and improved
performance?
 The students are continuously evaluated using internal examinations,
assignments, question answer sessions, problem solving sessions,
group discussions, seminars and debates to measure the student
performance. The students are also evaluated about the regularity in
attending the classes using online attendance system.
2.5.4 What percentage of marks is earmarked for continuous internal
assessment? Indicate the mechanisms strategized to ensure rigour
of the internal assessment process?
 For both theory subjects and practical subjects, internal assessment
carry 40% marks. For theory subject two internal exams are conducted
for maximum of 40 marks.
 If a student writes both exams 80% weightage is given to the best
performed exam and 20 % weightage to other one. For example if
student got 35 marks in one internal exam and 20 marks obtained in
the other exam, then total internal marks by the student out of 40 are
32 (0.8*35+0.2*20 =32). If any student fails to write any one exam the
marks obtained for that exam is considered as ‘zero’, then 80 % of the
marks obtained in one internal exam are considered as total internal
marks out of 40.

Re-Accreditation Report 2014
A. Feedback Mechanism
 Objectives of the Practice
 To collect the feedback from academic peers, Employees, Alumni,
Parents and Community on the courses offered. Curriculum
offered, Teaching and Learning process, Infrastructural Facilities,
Learning Resources, Extracurricular Activities etc., and to use the
outcome in strengthening the Institution in Teaching-Learning and
other activities to meet the growing demands of the Global market.
 Context
 The primary objective of the Institution is to train its students with
strong analytical skills, language skills, employability skills and
life skills with a deep sense of social consciousness and awareness.
Skill-based activities are playing significant role in the recent years
to enable the students to equip with the needy mechanisms and
technologies to meet the growing demand of the jobs. The
feedback mechanism regulates the requirement for innovative
teaching-learning processes which in-turn prepare the students to
face the global challenges.
 Practice
 Institution values feedback obtained not only from within but also
from other external stakeholders. Feedback from Academic peers,
Employers, Alumni, Parents and community is collected in the
prescribed format prepared by the Institute and reports obtained are
quantified and analyzed for further remedial steps.
 Evidence of success
 Based on feedback reports, additional courses on communication
skills and other employability skills are taught to the students.
Guest Lectures on arithmetic and analytical ability are arranged by
inviting well experienced teaching faculty from external
Institutions. Makeup classes are conducted to academically
backward students. Need based programmes are conducted to
enhance the opportunities of securing job.
 By organizing all the above activities in a systematic manner,
Institution has witnessed very fruitful and successful achievements
in placement drives. 62 students were placed in the year 2009-10,
82 students were placed in the year 2010-11, 70 students were
placed in the year 2011-12 and 20 students are placed in the year
2012-13 in various organizations in India and abroad.
 Problems encountered and Resources required
NBKR Institute of Science & Technology:: Vidyanagar
Page 199
Re-Accreditation Report 2014
 Since the Institution is located in a rural remote corner,
bringing the resource persons to organize skill oriented
programmes and providing the required ICT equipment is an
expensive task. The feedback is important in the context of
improvement in the academic programs, infrastructure
facilities, teaching-learning process and other activities which
helps to bring the students to face the challenges and help
themselves to possess the required technical skill.
B. Focus on (student) discipline
 Objectives of the Practice
 The goal is to develop ethical or moral values within the frame
work of timely coverage of syllabus, day to day attendance, a
uniform dress code, interactions with stake holders and timely
conduction of mid tests and University examinations are
important for the growth of the Institute in the long run
achievement.
 Context
 The student discipline plays a vital role in students career
during the span of professional studies. A disciplined student
justifies his role as student while attending regular class works,
writing the mid exams and University exams, interacting with
the teachers and browsing the network for subject
understanding. This helps to compete with others in projecting
himself as one of the best among others considering the
excellence in technical education and soft skills.
 Practice
 At the beginning of every academic year each Department
specifies the importance of the hourly based attendance.
 Personality development programmes are offered along with
engineering skills to help the students to understand the
responsibility of a good citizen of the nation. In this process,
the focus on discipline plays a vital role.
 Each and every faculty member in the Department posts hourly
attendance of the students every day through online attendance
management system which in turn helps the teachers to monitor
the students academic performance.
 The students express the dignity and importance of discipline
by canvassing the concept through posters and painting.
NBKR Institute of Science & Technology:: Vidyanagar
Page 200
Re-Accreditation Report 2014
 The attendance monitoring system makes the students more
responsible. Students with less attendance percentage are called
for counseling. This system increases overall quality of the
discipline and academic performance of the students.
 Evidence of success
 Strict Student Monitoring Programme offered by the Institute is
well received by the students. In turn the students’ performance
in University exams is better.
 Strict monitoring of the discipline and ethical values of the
students has proved to be great success with regard to the
students performance in various state and central public service
examinations. Further the students who wish to go abroad for
higher studies have better performance in completion of the
course.
 Our students are working as software engineers, civil servants,
Engineers in government sector and officers in banking. This
practice of strict discipline stands as an evidence in success of
the students in occupying better career prospects.
 Problems encountered and Resources required
 The practice of inculcating discipline among students has been
well received by our students. The faculty and staff explain to
the students the importance of the discipline and make them
aware about the fruitful outcomes.
 The stake holder plays a greater role in the implementation of
the day to day attendance procedure, proper dress code and
personality development of the students.
 The Institute provides necessary resources in this respect.

coming up around our district and all over the world.
 Several industries are coming up nearby and we can have
interaction with them to impart training for students.
 As the industries are coming up there is a great scope for taking
up consultancy works, Counseling, Guest lectures etc.,
 Proximity to SHAR so as to enable our students to pursue
projects with which they can acquire knowledge that increases
their employability.
 The industries are getting located in large numbers in and
around Nellore District in the developmental process (Small
Economic Zones)-Power Plants ( Reliance, Madhu Kon,
Simhapuri etc.,), Steel Plants (NELCAST, Lanco, SBQ etc.,),
Apachi foot wear, BHEL at Mannavaram. Besides these
