The process and procedures used to ensure that teaching and delivery of course material to the
students emphasizes active learning and that course learning outcomes are met. The process must be
periodically evaluated to ensure that it is meeting its objectives.
In order to achieve excellence in teaching and learning, evaluation and process control of these two
factors are conducted regularly. Moreover, the department puts a strong emphasis on utilizing the
current modern technologies such as multimedia, audio-visual facilities, computer animations, and
physical models by the teachers in order to increase the clarity of concepts being taught to the students.
Processes and procedures used to ensure that teaching and delivery of course material are effective and
focus on student learning are conducted through implementing the following measures and
responsibilities.
a) Dean's role
In each semester, the Dean prepares the teaching assignment and course schedule for the following
semester. At the beginning of each semester he approves the proposed faculty teaching assignments
after making the necessary adjustments. Each faculty member is assigned a teaching load taking into
consideration other administrative tasks assigned to him. At the end of the semester, final grades are
reviewed and discussed with the instructor to ensure that they are aligned with student performance.
The result of Grade Point Average (GPA) of each course is closely analyzed and compared with
established averages for the course and instructor performance.
b) Teaching assignment
Each semester, the Dean prepares faculty teaching assignments. Usually instructors are carefully
assigned to courses in which they have experience, knowledge and strength. In case an expert in a
particular course is not available then, after the assignment of the course, ample time is provided to the
teacher to prepare the course. Along with one to courses, each faculty member is also assigned a lab. In
his capacity as in charge of the lab, the faculty member supervises various lab engineers assigned to his
particular lab, makes sure that engineers are well-prepared for their labs before they stand in front of
the students, and at the end of the semester grades the lab.
56
c) Instructors
On completion of a course, instructors are required to prepare a course file for the course they have
taught and submit the same to the Dean. The main purpose of this process is that other instructors can
consult and utilize these course files to improve the quality of teaching by introducing new concepts and
subjects (after the approval of the Dean). Moreover, teaching performance evaluations results are used
to serve and guide instructors to enhance their teaching proficiency.
d) Course files
A course file contains the documentation of course syllabus, lecture-wise breakup, names of students
and their grades, copies of best, average and worst quizzes, exams, homework assignments, and copies
of term projects. The course files are kept in the department as a reference.
h) Student Advising
Every student has an academic advisor. The role of the advisor is to guide his advisees in selecting the
appropriate courses according to their degree plans and monitor their learning performance through
midterm warnings and final grades. Each faculty member is assigned around 30 students in each
semester.
j) Office Hours
Faculty members are supposed to allocate a significant amount of time each week outside the class for
meeting their students and advisees to answer any questions they have or clarify any doubts about a
certain topic in the course. The schedule of the office hours is posted on the instructor's office.
57
k) Examinations and Grades
Academic performance of students is evaluated based on certain types or exams. These include
homework assignments, quizzes, written examinations, seminars, term projects, laboratory or fieldwork,
and final exams, as applicable to the nature of the course. Except for the midterm and final exams, the
instructors themselves schedule all other examinations. The midterm and final examinations are
scheduled by the Director (Admission & Examinations). The duration of the written final examinations is
two and a half to three hours.
l) Textbooks
The adopted textbooks for teaching are frequently evaluated by the course instructors. New textbooks,
which may be proposed either as a replacement or as an addition for a course, are first discussed with
the Dean before these can be formally assigned to the course.
STANDARD 5-5
The process that ensures that graduates have completed the requirements of the program must be
based on standards, effective and clearly documented procedures. The process must be periodically
evaluated to ensure that it is meeting its objectives.
At the end of each spring semester, a list of candidates for graduation along with their transcripts is sent
to the department by the Director (Admission & Examinations). The Dean reviews the student records,
ensures that all the requirements are met by the students and signs off on the list. Following are the
requirements that must be met by the students before they can get their degrees:
1. Completion of all the core and elective courses according to the degree plan of the
program (134 credit hours minimum) with a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 2.00 or
better on a scale of 4.00.
2. Spending 8 weeks in the summer internship program (after the third year) working in
the industry.
