some books which will help them gain extra knowledge. These books are issued to the students.
 Book Bank: The College has book bank facility. The books are issued to the students at a nominal
cost in each semester. IIMT college of Polytechnic, Greater Noida
 Access to other Libraries in Campus: The students also have access to libraries from other college in
the campus.
 Videos: Multimedia has many kinds of data such as text, audio, images, animation, video and
interactive content. These make the learning complementary with the existing tools. With video, the
students has more control over the information they receives and it provides additional opportunity for
deeper learning by being able to stop, rewind, fast forward, and replay content as many times as needed.
 PPTs: PPT can help teachers to teach a subject point wise so as to make the learning more efficient.
Power Point has become very popular because it's easy to learn, widely available, easy to understand the
subject.
 CDS/DVDS: CD/DVDs contain large amount of data in the form of video, documents and -audio.
Students can take back up from computer and store it in DVD.
 Transparencies: Transparencies are mainly used for drawing figures which are then placed on an
overhead projector for display.
 E-Notes: e Notes helps students to complete assignments and study for exams. E notes are sent to the
students by emails.

 Website-Notes: Websites includes educational video tutorials, instructional lectures, do-it yourself
guides, self-help tutorials, interactive presentations, animated explanations and many more. It helps
students to develop learning skills. Many websites are suggested by BTE in Curriculum
2.2.7. New Initiatives for embedding Professional Skills

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 with others It involves

teamwork, decision making, and problem solving. It enables the students 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.

 Industrial training provided to the students after 4th 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 cognitive 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

1. Workshops on Entrepreneurship development skills

2. Workshops on recent ongoing Electrical 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
