2. INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL (IDP)
2.1 Executive Summary
1. To identify the current strength, weakness, opportunity and threats to the institution. Based on
this SWOT data, a strategic planning is to be developed which aims at the general development
objective designing. From these general development objectives concerned specific objectives
are fixed which are executed as per the predefined action plan. the institution development
proposal heals from the SWOT analysis being concluded
2. The graduate employability is the key factor of importance in the institution development
proposal as TEQIP II is being developed around it. Certain strategies are set out to increase and
monitor the employability of graduates. By the end of the project period it is being targeted to
increase the placement percentage to 70 in case of B.Tech students and 50 in case of M.Tech
students
3. To increase the transition rate from 1st year to 2nd year from the current figure of 38.50% for
all students to increase in four years to 100% . similarly, in the consecutive years.
4. To enhance the research thrust and thus increasing the no of research projects, consultation
activities, collaboration with industry etc. this aids in increasing the no. of research scholars
and papers published. For TEQIP sub component 1.2 this would be beneficial
5. Target to increase the Revenue generation from externally funded R&D projects and
consultancies in total revenue (Rs. in crores) from today’s 0.10 to 1.20
6. To strengthen PG programs to its notch
7. Continuously cater the needs of the faculty requiring additional training
8. To target for the 100% accreditation of all the eligible UG and PG programs phase wise in a
span of this project period

2.2 SWOT Analysis Methodology Used
The Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) analysis is a tool to asses the position
of an institution in the constantly improving business society. The strengths and weaknesses of the
institution lie in its internal environment. The opportunities and threats lie in the external
environment. The result of the SWOT analysis helps in the precise identification of the SWOT for the
institution. Having identified the same, the institution can devise suitable strategies to sustain
competitive advantage in the society.
A college level steering committee was formed for the strategic planning in the month of July 2010.
SWOT analysis was carried out for many types of decision making. They were strategic, long-term,
annual departmental planning exercise and an overall attempt to bring about an institutional level
change. Because with the decisions and implementation of the SWOT analysis, multiple stakeholders
are being affected, SWOT survey was carried as a group activity and hence involved a diverse mix of
specialists and generalists. For this SWOT, aimed at strategic decision making, top management and
head of the institution and heads of the various departments unit heads participated. Also an
institutional level debate was conducted which was a platform for free and constructive exchange of
information and ideas. A systematic recording of all points raised in the discussion was done. With this,
a raw SWOT was prepared. SWOT cannot be just subjective and vague plain talking. Key points need to
be supported by data and the information that flows from it. Strengths and weaknesses were thus
derived from internal attributes, such as availability of competences and physical resources or the lack
of it. Opportunities and threats emanate from environment; therefore the data that helps to analyze
these elements was more macro.
College level steering committee broke this big and complex job down into more manageable chunks
and thus completed the assigned task in 13 days. The following are the details of the activities carried
out and the members involved.

ADEQUACY OF PARTICIPATION OF THE STAKEHOLDERS Interacting and taking the valuable feedback of various stakeholders was an eight days job for the
steering committee. Before the actual implementation, a detailed presentation of the TEQIP II project,
significance and need of the SWOT analysis was delivered by the Head of the institution, Dr. Mohd.

Zafar Shaik. All BoG members, Heads of all the departments and 52 MBA 4th semester students were
present for the seminar. A steering committee being formed took up the job of interacting with the
stakeholders thus taking their feedback and valuable suggestions.
536 students of various branches and various levels were interacted. The committee could take
feedback from 104 faculties of various departments from various designations out of the total strength
of 147. As the MBA departmental faculties were the facilitators, they were not included (8). While out
of the remaining 35 faculty, 4 were on maternity leave, 2 faculty were deputed to a conference, 7
faculty were onduty for college, and the rest on casual and medical leaves. 27 Technical staff was
interacted. Also, the administrative staff was taken into account for the identification of the SWOT.
Similarly, 9 Non technical staff and 9 available Substaff were considered.
An alumni meet was organized on 01st August 2010 in the college campus by the alumni coordinator and
in that meet the steering committee involved themselves very actively in interacting with the alumni
as their feedback and suggestions would be of equally importance for the identification the SWOT.
Similarly, a parent’s meet was conducted on 08th August 2010 in the college campus by the office
administrative staff. The steering committee members collectively made this meet a big success even
though only 51 parents were present. Their practical ideas and areas of thinking were very useful.
The college placement coordinator conducted a meet with the employers who absorbed our alumni in
the past 3 years. Along with the placement coordinator, the steering committee members interacted
with them for their valuable suggestions.
Above all these activities, an institutional level debate was conducted which was an open platform for
the various stake holders (in units of max of 3) to debate on the constructive ideas. 10 MBA students
were made to monitor the debate and record all the points. Later, key members of the steering
committee formed a round table conference for the final analysis of the raw stake holder’s data.
SWOT ANALYSIS RESULTS In carrying out the SWOT analysis, a balanced approach has been adopted so that the views of all
constituencies are included. It is recognized that different perceptions may exist depending on the
representative group consulted. Therefore, considerable effort has been spent to reconfirm the
identified strengths and weaknesses. The external look to identify opportunities and threats is
considered complimentary to the internal self-study in the SWOT analysis. National and regional

graduates/post graduates are less inclined towards teaching sector.
STRATEGIC PLAN DEVELOPED FOR INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT BASED ON SWOT ANALYSIS Strategic planning determines where the institution is going over the next year or more and how it's
going to get there. Typically, this is an institutional level process. The process might be implemented
in a couple of years to get a sense of how planning is conducted, and then embellished in later years
with more planning phases and activities to ensure well-rounded direction. The basic strategic planning
process includes:
1. External/internal assessment to identify “SWOT”
2. Strategic analysis to identify and prioritize major objectives/goals
3. Identify specific approaches or strategies that must be implemented to reach each goal
4. Identify specific action plans to implement each strategy
5. Monitor and update the plan.
Based on the above SWOT analysis, the following is the strategic plan generation process developed:
Aurora’s Scientific, Technological and Research Academy Bandlaguda, Hyderabad Dr. M.Z. Shaikh Sub-Component 1.1
18
The strategic plan generation process
Strategic analysis is about looking at what is happening outside the institution now and in the future. It
asks two questions:
• How might what's happening affect the institution?
• What would be the institution’s response to likely changes?
It's called strategic because it's high level, about the longer term, and about institution. It's called
analysis because it's about breaking something that's big and complex down into more manageable
chunks.
GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES IDENTIFIED FOR THE INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL Vision: Aurora envisions ‘to make itself synonymous with learning’. We aim to equip our students with a
perfect combination of profound knowledge with humane values.
Aurora’s Scientific, Technological and Research Academy Bandlaguda, Hyderabad Dr. M.Z. Shaikh Sub-Component 1.1

Train faculty members and technical staff extensively in subject and domain
knowledge areas as per TNA.
Train faculty members for effective teaching and learning as per TNA.
Careful subject allocation by allocating subjects only to trained faculty
Adopt three gear teaching methodology
Gear 1: Teaching first year students is all together different. As they are
novice they need to be taught slowly step by step so that they comprehend the
subject and understand the fundamentals.
Gear 2: Can be used for students of 2 and 3 years where in student will be
made to think and work.
Gear 3: For final year students, as they will be mature, lot of information can
be given in less time using teaching aids.

2.4 f) IMPROVING INTERACTION WITH INDUSTRY
Better interaction between Technical institutions and industry is the need of the hour.
This will have great bearing on the Engineering Curriculum, exposure of industrial
atmosphere to engineering students and subsequent placement of young graduating
engineers in industries across the country. With the advent of globalization and the
opening up of the Indian economy to the outside world, competition among industries
has become stiff. To solve their engineering problems they look up now to Engineering
Institutions. Similarly, there is an urgent need to prepare engineering students for jobs
in multinational companies, by exposing them to newer technologies and engineering
methodologies. These objectives can only be achieved well by bridging the gap
between industry and the academic institute.
To meet its objectives Industry-Institution-Interaction Cell (I-I-I-C) has been established
with the following core staff members:
Dr. J.R. Somayazulu, Professor, Civil Department - Coordinator
Mr. Kiran Reddy, Associate Professor, CSE Department - Project Assistant
Ms. Rekha Kulkarni - Office Assistant
The Institute encourages its faculty and students to interact with scientists, technicians
and with industry in all possible ways with the spirit of deriving mutual benefit. To
meet this goal all the members of I-I-I-C will meet every 2nd week and 20th week of the
semester.
The I-I-I-C is constituted with the following members:
Dr. M.Z. Shaikh, Director - Chairman
Mr. Subhash Dasyam, Director, Tech Defence Pvt. Ltd - Member
Mr. Ripul Kumar, Executive Manager, KERN Commn. - Member
Dr. M. Uma Devi, HoD, Bio-Tech - Member
Dr. K. Chandra Sekhara Rao, HoD, Civil - Member
Mr. Vivek Kulkarni, HoD, CSE - Member
Ms. C. Srilatha, HoD, ECE - Member
Ms. V. Aruna, HoD, IT - Member
Mr. Kiran Reddy, Associate Professor, CSE - Member
Mr. Arjun Ghule, Associate Professor, ECE - Member
Mr. T. Shyam Kumar, Associate Profesor, IT - Member
Mr. B. Laxmana Swamy, Asscoiate Professor, Civil - Member
Ms. Aditya Rasmi, Lecturer, Bio-Tech - Member
Mr. Abdul Rahim, Lecturer, ECE - Member

The following committee was form to identify to start the new PG programmes.
1. Dr. M. Uma Devi, Dept. of Biotechnology
2. Dr. Vijaya Sarathi, Dept. of CSE, Convener
3. Dr. T. Srinivasulu, Dept. of ECE, Member
4. Dr. D.S. Prakash Rao, Dept. of Civil Engg., Member
5. Dr. J.R. Somayazulu, Dept. of Civil Engg., Member
After thorough industrial survey and discussion and meetings with various acadmicians
and alumni the committee proposed the following new PG programmes to be started in
two phases.
M.Tech - Human Computer Interaction to be offered by Department of CSE from the
academic year 2011-12 (syllabus to be approved by BoS JNTUH)
M.Tech – Structural Engineering to be offered by Department of IT from the
academic year 2011-12 (syllabus for which is already approved from JNTUH)

from the academic year 2012-13 (syllabus for which is already approved from
JNTUH)
M.Tech – Nano Technology to be offered by Department of ECE from the academic
year 2012-13 (syllabus for which is already approved from JNTUH)
Some of the important observations made by the committee are stated below for
respective programmes :
M.Tech – Human Computer Interaction
Why this Course in India?
This Course is not offered in India as an exclusive P.G Programme where as it is being
offered by many Universities in United States and European Countries. If offered this
will be the first course of its kind in India. Research in the field of HCI is still in infancy.
Objectives
The goal of this Course to learn new techniques and tools that will support human use,
augment human learning, enhance communication and lead to more acceptable
technological developments at the individual and the social levels. The Human-
Computer Interaction masters program prepares students to participate in the design
and implementation of software systems that can be used easily, effectively and
Aurora’s Scientific, Technological and Research Academy Bandlaguda, Hyderabad Dr. M.Z. Shaikh Sub-Component 1.1
88
enjoyably. With a masters in HCI, students are prepared to contribute to the multi-
disciplinary teams that typically construct software systems. Students learn techniques
for building successful user interfaces, design principles that make user interfaces
visually clear and appealing, apply techniques for identifying needs for software and its
success, and gain knowledge about the people and organizations that will use their
systems.
Job Opportunities
User Interface Designer, UI Architect, Interface Builder, Visual Design Professional,
Design Incubator, Usability Experience Designer, Graphic designers for web,
UI/Interaction Designer, Usability Engineer.
M.Tech - Structural Engineering
Structural Engineering is an innovative program, focused on the combination of recent
advances made in the field of structural engineering and computer science. This
combination allows structural engineer the flexibility and freedom for a better
understanding of structural behavior with material and geometric non-linearity and
loading uncertainties.
The students can join this program with a background in civil engineering. The course
provides an excellent grounding in the fundamentals of structural engineering subjects.
It also engages in a comprehensive study of computer science subjects such as
programming, databases, graphics, visualization etc.
Career Options
One can opt for doctorate level study in the field or can find jobs in both government
and private sector, for the post of structural engineer.
M.Tech - Environmental Engineering
Environmental science and engineering is becoming an interesting career option
because of the increase in consciousness about the environment. Environmental
scientists and engineers are now playing the important role of the guardians of the
environment. Coupled with tremendous economic development, India has also
witnessed a high degree of environmental pollution. The onus now lies on the
environmental engineers and scientists to make India tread the path of sustainable
development. Candidates willing to build a career in this field may opt for a formal
training program or course. There are quite a number of institutes that offer
environmental science & engineering career courses in India.

Career Options
One can opt for doctorate level study in the field or can find jobs in both government
and private sector, for the post of environmental engineer.
M.Tech – Nanotechnology
The scope and application of nanotechnology is tremendous and mind-boggling.
According to the scientists, 21st century would be the nanotechnology century. It is
estimated that nanotechnology would revolutionize every area, be it medicine,
aerospace, engineering, various industrial and technological areas, health or any other
field. The technology has the potential to produce garments which can block chemical
and biological weapons from touching the skin of a person.
Nanotechnology is an interdisciplinary subject which essentially combines Physics,
Chemistry, Bio-informatics Bio-technology, etc. Though the field is at present in infancy
stage (started some 16 years ago in India), the country is making dedicated efforts not
to lag behind after starting work in this field. As a result, there is a great demand for
students who do their M. Tech in nanotechnology because a large number of industries
and laboratories in India and overseas would lab them up.
Opportunities
There are many exciting new fields which will open up for the nanotechnology experts
including:
Health Industry research and consulting- pharmaceutical, medical, agriculture, food
and beverage, environment industries.
Research and development in government, universities and private research
institutes
Education and academic
Entrepreneurial, management and investment advisors in biotechnology and
research and development industry.
Product development and advising.
Communication and media, interfacing of new technologies.
Many new industries emerging as a result of advances in nanotechnology
Hence based on the above studies the committee on PG courses advised to run the
above four programmes.

Following were the areas which are given importance while formulating the Action Plan
for faculty development:
Upgradation of qualifications
Improving competence in teaching-training
Development of modern learning resources and teaching aids
New techniques in research
Improving competence in research and consultancy
Deputation to seminars, conferences and presentation of research papers
Interaction with peer groups within India and abroad
Establishing linkages with academic and research institutions and industry.
Management of industry interactions
Student counseling
Student performance evaluation
Each faculty and staff will be visualizing their own training needs. The HOD will then
analyze his departmental need and try to match it with the faculty and staff needs and
prepare a plan for his department which he / she will then present to the head of the
institution and the Director will then hold extensive discussion and decide priorities and
prepare a faculty and staff development plan for the forthcoming year along with specific
names of persons to be trained, agency, duration, and estimated fee and seek approval of
the BOG in advance and depute faculty and staff for training as per plan.
The rationale for selecting areas and persons for training is explained below:
The reasons are one or more of the following.
The institution is going to offer an additional elective and a specific faculty has prior
experience or knowledge or interest or papers published and therefore, has the interest
in getting training so both the need of the faculty and the institution are matching.
The institution is going to offer revised curriculum in 2011 and needs to train faculty
and has selected a particular person based on his / her interest as well as the
institutional need.
The institution is planning to start a new PG course and feels that some of the existing
faculty could be utilized for teaching the course and some new will also be recruited.
So based on the suitability of their prior qualifications the institution has decided to
send the faculty for training to prepare for new PG course.
The need for training in particular areas arose because of student feedback.
Faculty members feeling they are not well informed on certain course material which
they teach and feel the need to upgrade their qualifications.

Education and enhance existing capacities of the institutions to become dynamic, demand-driven,
quality conscious, efficient and forward looking, responsive to rapid economic and technological
developments occurring at the local, State, National and International levels.
National Economic plan: Realizing the potential of socio-political and economic benefits from Higher Education in
transforming India into a knowledge society, the Government of India has placed a much higher
priority on Higher Education in the Eleventh Five Year Plan (2007 to 2012). This change in priority
is supported by a proposed Rs.2,70,000 crore allocation to the Education Sector, which represents a
four-fold increase over the Tenth Five Year Plan allocations. Government of India in its Union
budget for 2010-11 has allotted the following amount against higher education comprising of Rs.
4390 Crores for University Grants Commission, Rs. 4706 Crores for Technical Education and Rs. 900
for national mission in education through information and communication technology.
State Economic plan: In the Budget speech 2010-2011 of Andhra Pradesh, the then Chief Minister Shri. K Roshaiah
presented the plan for the post-matric scholarship program on a saturation mode to provide
scholarships and tution fees to all eligible students of SC, ST, OBC, EBC, Minorities and Disabled
whose parental income is below Rs.1 lakh per annum. Allocation for scholarships and tuition fee for
SCs is Rs.536 crores, for STs is Rs.193 crores, for BCs is Rs.1032 crores, for EBCs is Rs.300 crores, for
Minorities is Rs.210 crores and for disabled is Rs.7 crores in 2010-11 budget. For providing coaching
to the minority students for entrance to professional colleges, the Centre for Educational
Development of Minorities is functioning under the aegis of Osmania University. A provision of
Rs.237 crores has been made in Budget Estimates 2010-11 for Minorities Welfare Department.
The State Government is planning several steps in the direction of improving access to higher
education while promoting equity and inclusiveness and placing utmost emphasis on the quality and
relevance of subjects taught in the institutions of higher education. In the last five years, 18 new
Universities have been set-up in the State. Government has also sanctioned 65 new degree colleges,
49 new polytechnics and 104 new Junior colleges during the last three years. These measures
Aurora’s Scientific, Technological and Research Academy Bandlaguda, Hyderabad Dr. M.Z. Shaikh Sub-Component 1.1
122
represent an unprecedented growth in the State in the field of higher education. Academic
programmes and faculty development programmes have been started in association with Industries
i.e., Osmania University with GENPACT, Andhra University with HSBC Bank and Government Degree
Colleges with Infosys. The Andhra Pradesh State Council for Higher Education has been conducting
Career Awareness and Recruitment Drive (CARD) in association with NASSCOM and recruiting
industries in the sectors of IT and IT enabled Services, insurance, banking, hospitality, tourism,
retail sector, etc., with a view to create awareness about job opportunities available in various
sectors, skills required to capture these opportunities and also to provide a common platform for
recruitment. Government has decided to implement UGC scales to the teaching staff of Universities
and Degree Colleges. An amount of Rs.2830 crores has been allocated for Higher Education
Department in the 2010-11 Budget.
Efforts for employability in Government of India (industrial development) The union budget for 2010-11 presented in February 2010 granted the funds as follows:
S.No Amount
(in Rs.
Crores)
Activity
1 Rs223 for credit support program to provide guarantee cover to banks for
extending loans to small/tiny units without collateral.
2 Rs. 906 for Prime minister’s Employment Generation Program
3 Rs. 336 for quality of technology support institution and programs
4 Rs. 180 for Center for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) for
undertaking R&D
5 Rs. 570 for multidisciplinary research
6 Rs, 100 for national mission for Nano science and Nano technology
7 Rs. 467 for Research and Development in biotechnology
8 Rs. 343 for Autonomous R&D institutions in BioTechnology
9 Rs. 232 for setting up state of the art automotive testing, validation and R&D
infrastructure facilities
Efforts for employability in the State by the Government (industrial development) Our Government is committed to provide world class infrastructural facilities to make Andhra
Pradesh a manufacturing hub for national and international companies. Special Economic Zones
(SEZs) are being promoted in different regions to generate employment in export oriented
manufacturing sector. Government of India has given approvals to 103 SEZs in Andhra Pradesh. Out
of these, 73 SEZs are notified, 40 SEZs have already become operational and 54,776 jobs are
already created. As a part of Government’s initiative of developing IT in tier-2 cities, APIIC is
Aurora’s Scientific, Technological and Research Academy Bandlaguda, Hyderabad Dr. M.Z. Shaikh Sub-Component 1.1
123
developing IT / ITES SEZs at Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada, Kakinada, Tirupati, Kadapa, Warangal and
also Ranga Reddy districts.
During 2009-10, 48 large Industries with an investment of Rs.8,399 crores have been set up in the
State, creating employment for 8,116 persons. In addition to this, proposals for 353 new large
Industries have been received with an investment of Rs.81,092 crores which are expected to give
employment for 1,11,328 persons. Presently, our State accounts for 15% of national IT exports. As
of 2009, total employment in IT Sector was 2,51,786 in the State. IT sector contributes about
52.09% of total exports from all sectors in the State.
Coherence of Institutional Development Proposal with State’s/ National
Industrial/Economic Development Plan. Nurturing the skills of our students and effectively training them proportional to their weaknesses
and strengths would lead to the all round development and formation of a professional from a
student. The parent institute plays a major role in this transformation. Because of the competition
and the low supply of quality professionals, other than the prescribed syllabus teaching and
laboratory work, today’s students require additional training and support in their personality
development, confidence building, extra curricular activities, Research, publications, placements,
etc. during the four year stay, a students enhances his learning skills and these learning outcomes
would be proportional to his employability.
Hence, the institution, keeping in view of the scope for the employability has prepared this
institutional developmental proposal which majorly aims at the increasing learning outcomes and
the employability of the produced graduates.
Both the National and the State Governments are striving for the economic development and in
turn enhancing the employability for the graduates into various sectors. With the entrepreneurship
policies of the Central Government and the Prime minister’s Employment Generation Program
today’s MBA graduates can set up their small units of business (for a max. of 25 lakhs) thereby
gaining self employability. Wherein they can avail 90% sanction of loan and the bank disburses the
full amount suitably for setting up of the unit.
With the C-DAC funded programs, the learning skills as well as the training skills of both faculty as
well as students can be multiplied by ten folds. This not only results in the learning outcomes but
also aids in the cultural development of research. The primary areas of research here include
information and communication technology and electronics. These research activities are driven by
specific application areas and hence mostly applied in nature. Our electronics, computer science
and Information technology graduates can make up their prospective career under the training,
education and R&D support of C-DAC.
Aurora’s Scientific, Technological and Research Academy Bandlaguda, Hyderabad Dr. M.Z. Shaikh Sub-Component 1.1

Technological Development in the area of multidisciplinary research provides scope for the
engineers for employability as it clusters research based activates in combination of different
areas. Rising boom of NanoScience and Nanotechnology would attract our graduates as it thrives
tightly on the integration of material science, process technology, nanoelectronics, chemistry,
biology and mechanical engineering. All the quality graduates of these different branches of study
can make their career in the field of NanoScience and Nanotechnology which is being exclusively
funded for specific mission by the Government of India. Hence, the institution has proposed for the
M.Tech Nanotechnology course for the year 2011-2012.
Today the essence of biotechnology is most prominent in the fields of genetic research and drug
designing. The Government of India has laid up enough funds on the Research and Development as
well as the Autonomous R&D institutions in biotechnology. Our Biotechnology graduates can make
use of this prompt area of development.
Mechanical engineering graduates can make up their prospective career in the field of automotive
industry as the Government of India is funding extensively for the testing, validation and R&D
infrastructure facilities. Our Civil and Mechanical engineering graduates who would be ready for
industry, who can be absorbed.
As Hyderabad has grown as IT hub, the prospective graduates of our institution from computer
science and information technology branches can settle down in the IT sector.
Thus, keeping in view of the sources of employability and wide areas of growth, the institution has
thus come up with this institutional development proposal in terms of Strengthening Institution to
improve Learning Outcomes and employability of Graduates as the learning outcomes are directly
proportional to the graduate employability.
