Process involved in defining the PEOs:

The Programme Educational Objectives (PEOs) are actually the broad statements of the

objectives for which the programme is run. In the first place, these objectives should help in

fulfilling the mission of the department. Secondly, the students graduating from the

programme are expected to lead a fruitful and meaningful life in the society by being useful

in its progressive development. Thus it is necessary that these objectives should be in

consonance, to the extent possible, with the current research scenario in the relevant field of

engineering and with the needs of the relevant industry. The research scenario is best judged

by the faculty members through research publications. The industry needs are gauged through

the feedback, mostly verbal, received when the students go for industrial training. The alumni

who have gone to industry or to institutes of high reputation are able to reflect whether the

objectives are adequate.

STEP-1: The needs of the Nation and society are identified through scientific publications,

industry interaction and media.

STEP-2: Taking the above into consideration, the PEOs are established by the Core Committee

of the department.

STEP-3: The PEOs are communicated to the alumni and their suggestions are obtained.

STEP-4: The PEOs are communicated to all the faculty members of the department and their

feedback is obtained.

STEP-5: The PEOs are then put to the Board of Studies of the department for final approval.

Program Curriculum and Teaching – Learning

CRITERION 2 200
Processes
2.1 Program Curriculum (50)

2.1.1 State the process used to identify extent of compliance of the Board curriculum

for attaining the Program Outcomes (POs) and Program Specific Outcomes (PSOs) as

mentioned in Annexure I. Also mention the identified curricula gaps, if any (30)

The curriculum given by Maharashtra State Board of Technical Education is revised every 5

years taking feedback from all the stakeholders like Industry, Alumni, Institutes, Subject

experts etc. It is based on System‟s approach. This takes care of the curricular gaps present in

the previous curriculum & thus minimizes the gaps.

However, with growing technology, it is very difficult to satisfy all the needs of the industry

through curriculum. To identify these gaps following approach is used.

 A subject teacher does a thorough study of the curriculum. After discussion with other

subject teachers a common platform is created wherein the link between various subjects

is discussed. The curricular and knowledge gaps are identified and the strategy to

overcome these gaps is arrived at.

 Recent advances in the industry are identified with discussion between visiting faculties

and departmental staff. The discussion also highlights the need for students to have

knowledge of these advancements. Accordingly, symposiums, Seminars, Workshops,

Training programmes are arranged.

 A review of curriculums offered by autonomous institutes is taken into consideration and

the necessary contents are added in the seminars.

Course Delivery Methods

Self Assessment Report 29 Department of Computer Engineering

 V.P.M’s Polytechnic, Thane M.S.

 Class room Lectures - The main delivery method for the courses is lecture

interspersed with discussion. This helps in the obtaining a sound understanding of the course

fundamentals, design and implementation issues, etc.

 Presentations- The abstract concepts difficult to imagine are presented through

power point presentations and animation tools to impart insight into the subject. Presentations

also illustrate ideas and concepts in graphics form. Video presentations effectively

communicate the working of actual engineering solutions and their impact.

 Laboratory session- Laboratory work demonstrates how theory can be verified by

experiments through interpretation of results. Experiments are normally done in groups so

students learn to work in teams.

 Simulations or demo - In some courses, the design and experimentation issues are

also discussed in the form of demo or simulations. The students are thus exposed to different

tools for implementation and experimentation.

 Assignments- Writing assignments deepens thinking and increases students'

engagement with course material. Good writing assignments prompt students to think more

deeply about what they are learning. Some assignments carry a bigger problem nearer to

reality that cannot be done in the classroom. Group assignments help them to work

effectively in a team.

 Project - Micro projects, Mini projects and Final year projects are carried out by a

group of students under the guidance of faculty wherein students apply the knowledge of all

related courses in providing hardware/software solutions and present demonstrable product to

a panel of supervisors.

 Comprehensive Viva Voce - The Viva Voce is an important mode of assessment,

providing an opportunity for students to demonstrate their knowledge, approach and

understandings with the examiners. They are not just an assessment of the student's

Self Assessment Report 30 Department of Computer Engineering

 V.P.M’s Polytechnic, Thane M.S.

performance but usually an opportunity for the external examiner to get feedback from the

students on the performance of the department.

 Seminar - The students collect knowledge related to a topic and present it in a

technical report and oral lecture comprehensively.

 Industrial Visits - Industrial visits are arranged to get the students acquainted with

industrial environment and work ethics.

 E- Learning Resources- Videos and E-learning material are used for giving exposure

to domain expertise of the faculties from various reputed institutes like NPTEL, Spoken

Tutorial.

2.2.7. New Initiatives for embedding Professional Skills (15)

For developing specialized skill development including communication, professional and

core employability skills classes on Professional Practices, Development of Life Skills &

Entrepreneurship Development are conducted.

Professional Practice and Entrepreneurship Development are trans-disciplinary academic

department focused on flexible work-related learning within higher education.

Professional Practice subject provides a platform to students to undergo activities which will

enable them to develop self-confidence.In this subject a student is needs to use the knowledge

and skills within a practical environment. Practicing in a professional manner requires that

individuals have skills, knowledge, values and attitudes appropriate to their role and

responsibility within the setting. In addition, it requires regular reflection upon practice and

engagement in supported, ongoing professional development.

Professional Practice is enhanced in several fields-

 Effective communication is more than just exchanging information withothersIt involves

teamwork, decision making, and problem solving. It enables thestudents to communicate

even negative or difficult messages without creating conflict or destroying trust.

It is achieved in several ways-

 Interacting with peers to share thoughts

 Prepare notes on given topic.

 Conducting Seminars

 Conducting Group Discussions

 Guest lectures on Communication Skills

 Preparing report on industrial visits, expert lectures

 Organizing Paper Presentations

Self Assessment Report 49 Department of Computer Engineering

 V.P.M’s Polytechnic, Thane M.S.

 Industrial training provided to the students after 4th and 6th Semester helps the students in

gaining knowledge. It also allows them to work on real world problem and develops

confidence in them.

 Personality development means enhancing and grooming one‟s outer and inner self to bring

about a positive change to your life. Each individual has a distinct persona that can be

developed, polished and refined. This process includes boosting one‟s confidence, improving

communication and language speaking abilities, widening ones scope of knowledge,

developing certain hobbies or skills, learning manners.

It is achieved in several ways-

1. Conducting guest lectures on Personality development

2. Organizing Seminars

3. Guest lectures on Stress Management

 Information search-Everybody can become more effective when it comes to searching of

information. Research suggests that metacognitive strategies including planning, monitoring

and self-regulating actions could enhance individual search in research database. Students are

provided with different topics related to different fields of study.

 Industrial visits -Industrial visit has its own importance in a career of a student who is

pursuing a professional degree. It is considered as a part of college curriculum.

Industrial visits provide students an insight regarding internal working of companies. We

know theoretical knowledge is not enough for making a good professional career. With an

aim to go beyond academics, industrial visit provides student a practical perspective on the

world of work. It provides students with an opportunity to learn practically through

interaction, working methods and employment practices.

 Workshops –Several workshops are conducted to improvise students in different aspects

such as

Self Assessment Report 50 Department of Computer Engineering

 V.P.M’s Polytechnic, Thane M.S.

1. Workshops on Entrepreneurship development skills (RYLA)

2. Workshops on recent ongoing Computer Engineering related topics.

 Mentoring --Mentoring is to support and encourage people to manage their own learning

in order that they may maximize their potential, develop their skills, improve their

performance and become the person they want to be. Mentoring is a powerful personal

development and empowerment tool. It is an effective way of helping people to progress in

their careers and is becoming increasing popular as its potential is realized.

 Counseling is about talking to someone who understands what depression is and what can

help. Counselors are professionally trained to work with people on their personal and

emotional issues, including depression and suicide. Counseling offers an opportunity to

talk confidentially to someone impartial, so students are free to explore your true feelings

and be supported without judgment.

3.2. Attainment of Course Outcomes (40)

3.2.1. Describe the assessment processes used to gather the data upon which the

evaluation of Course Outcome is based (10)

Following processes have been undertaken to find the attainment of course outcomes. For

direct attainment the progressive test result, MSBTE result is taken into consideration.

Progressive Tests

 Two progressive tests are conducted in each semester – one in the mid-semester and the

other at the end of semester.

 MSBTE provides Teacher‟s guide for all subjects. It includes lecture wise topics to be

covered and the portion to be completed before each progressive test. Teacher‟s guide is

strictly followed.

 Teacher‟s guide also includes sample question papers as guide lines for setting question

paper for progressive tests.

 Course outcome of the subject are taken into consideration while setting up the question

paper.

 After paper assessment the attainment of course outcome is found by determining the

number of students having met the set standard in the said subject.

 Based on the above calculation the attainment level is found.

MSBTE Exam

 MSBTE provides teaching scheme for every semester, which includes the components

viz., Theory Exam, Practical/Oral exam and term work along with the maximum marks

allotted for each component.

 The marks of the applicable components are added and attainment of course outcome is

found by determining the number of students who have met the set standard in the said

subject.
Self Assessment Report 73 Department of Computer Engineering
 V.P.M’s Polytechnic, Thane M.S.

The direct attainment is calculated by taking into consideration the 20% of allotment level

for class test and 80% of allotment for MSBTE exam.

3.2.2. Record the attainment of Course Outcomes of all courses with respect to set

attainment levels (30)

Average marks selected by the Program = 40% of total mark to assess a course.

Justification: Program has set course outcome attainment level for all courses. To measure

course outcome attained through board examination target level is stated as percentage of

students getting more than the level selected by program. Program has continued to consider

common average mark for academic years 2013-2014 and 2014-2015.

For the following table calculation of attainment level for three years has been done. It was

observed that with the set standard of 40% the achieved level was higher than the target level.

Self Assessment Report 74 Department of Computer Engineering

 V.P.M’s Polytechnic, Thane M.S.

Hence for the year 2015-16 the set standard was raised to 50%. With this standard, the target

and achieved levels match.

Program defined attainment levels vs. target for Internal and Board Exams are,

Attainment Level Target Level

Attainment Level 1 up to 50% students scoring more than average percentage marks
Attainment Level 2 51% to 60% students scoring more than average percentage marks
Attainment Level 3 61% to 70% students scoring more than average percentage marks
Attainment Level 4 71% 80% students scoring more than average percentage marks
Attainment Level 5 above 80% students scoring more than average percentage marks

3.3. Attainment of Program Outcomes & Program Specific Outcomes (40)

3.3.1. Describe assessment tools and processes used for assessing the attainment of each

POs and PSOs as mentioned in Annexure 1 (10)

Assessment Tools

 The input to polytechnic education system is the students having 10+ qualifications.

 The MSBTE curriculum is revised every five years and is prepared taking the industry

needs into consideration.

 An Industry survey is conducted on state level and feedback received is taken into

consideration along with suggestions received from subject experts.

 Subject experts from various institutes are invited to prepare the content detailing of

Theory and Laboratory work.

 Bloom‟s Revised Taxonomy is used while implementing the curriculum.

 MSBTE provides training to the faculty across the state of Maharashtra.

 The subject teacher identifies 5-6 course outcomes as given in Table 3.1.1 in the SAR.

 Course Outcomes are then mapped with the Program Outcomes & Program Specific

Outcomes.Correlation levels are entered and the overall Course Outcome is calculated.

Self Assessment Report 79 Department of Computer Engineering

 V.P.M’s Polytechnic, Thane M.S.

 All the Outcomes of various Courses are mapped with the POs and PSOs & correlation

levels are entered in CO-PO/ CO-PSO Matrix.

 The Course Outcomes are measured for Progressive tests as well as MSBTE Board

Examinations by setting standards and calculating the number of students scoring above

the set standard. The Progressive tests and MSBTE Exam give Direct Attainment Level.

 80% of the Direct Attainment levels are calculated.

 For Indirect Attainment, the average scores of the feedback taken from various

stakeholders is taken.

 20% of the score is considered for calculation of Attainment Levels.

 The Direct & Indirect attainment levels of POs& PSOs are added and Attainment Levels

are calculated.
