Message from Chancellor

"Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself" says

John Dewey. At PES, we believe that rigors of the contemporary

world require professionals not to end their quest for knowledge

along with their stay in the campus. The dynamics of the fast-

changing world urges the academicians to give the right impetus for

making life-long learners out of students. Thus, academia is

expected to sketch the outline of this future society and mark the

path to reach that goal. At the PES University, students enjoy

personal attention, state-of-the-art technology, quality classes and

faculty who truly care about the quality of education each student

receives. The combination of high quality curriculum and cutting-

edge technology makes for satisfied students with high job

placement rates.PES's founding principles – Perseverance,

Excellence and Service – have remained strong through the years as

our academic focus has expanded from teaching-learning to

research. PES University's fundamental mission, in addition to

education and research, is to ensure that our scholarship, when

appropriate, can be brought to bear on the complex challenges

facing society. In addition to creating fertile young for professional

and personal success we have committed ourselves to create

responsible citizens with ethics and good social conduct. This has

been laid out in the vision of PES University “To create

professionally superior and ethically strong global workforce”. I

congratulate the efforts of all stakeholders on successful completion

of first year of PES University and brining out its First Annual

Report.

professionally superior and ethically strong

global workforce. The intent and belief of PES

University is that professionalism should be

built on strong ethical foundation. All PES

University programs shall strive to create

professional manpower with global perspective

and the university has been established to serve

the educational needs of the country through

comprehensive programs of education and

research. The University has come up as an

extension of PESIT which has set high standards

of technical education in the country. PESIT is

PES University

A Brief Profile

Annual Report 2014Annual Report 2014

one of the most sought after technical

institutes by students, parents and

employers. Most of the seats get filled up on

Day-1 of the Karnataka state's admission

process. More than 70% of the eligible

candidates are placed within 3 days of the

start of the placement season every year.

PESIT was granted autonomy by University

Grants Commission (UGC) in 2007 following

the recommendation by Government of

Karnataka and Visvesvaraya Technological

University (VTU), Belgaum. The institute has

utilized the autonomy granted to it effectively

by initiating comprehensive academic and

non-academic reforms. These programs are

getting into a phase of maturity and now

poised to scale these programs to increase

the quality and quantity of education and

research. This has led to the establishment of

PES University as a State Private University.

PES University believes that Faculty,

Students and Infrastructure are the three

pillars on which the university rests,

supported strongly by the foundation of top

management's commitment to excellence.

The top management has shown its

commitment by providing matching grants

for research, encouraging international

participation and establishing state-of-the-

art labs. The university believes in the

comprehensive development and inclusion

agenda for gifted as well as slow learning

students. While the gifted students have to be

encouraged to break new barriers, the slow

learning students have to be supported and

brought up to higher levels through academic

support programs.

Labs and industry-led Centres of

Excellence are created on the university

campus to provide an environment that

encourages research and development to

finally result in helping the economy of the

region. These centres shall germinate

innovative ideas on the campus to blossom as

start-up companies which help the innovators

focus on the technology while the university

takes care of infrastructure and establishment

overheads. We believe that this is a very strong

commitment by the university to encourage

innovation.

SPIRIT Framework: PES University has

developed SPIRIT framework (acronym for

Students, Processes, Identity, Research,

Infrastructure, and Teachers) for continual

improvement in the university.

Students - Methods to attract quality

students year after year, mechanisms to

enhance the learning experience of existing

students and ways as well as means to engage

the alumni to bring back their experience to the

campus is the primary goal of PES. Attracting

prospective and merited students to University

fold will be a serious exercise that everyone at

PES strives for. Organizing quiz events, science-

experiment competitions, meeting high school

students and making them to visit the University

are a few among many to attract incumbents.

Enhancing experience of existing students by

through specially designed special topics,

seminars, assignments, designing and

developing prototypes, industry internships,

encouraging to obtain international internships,

participation in competitions are few initiatives

that continually expose students to challenges

and problem solving and induce them to create,

share and apply and achieve results. Regular

Alumni contacts and fostering programs

involving them to mentor their juniors is yet

another initiative that is successfully practiced

in the University.

Processes - University implements the

following processes to enhance stakeholder

satisfaction:

Annual Report 2014

Campus Wide Quality Improvement

Program (CWQIP): This is about optimizing

teaching and learning methods across campus.

CWQIP works on three distinct fronts: (a) it sets

up systems for accountability and continuous

improvement in the classroom through supply

of course information, teacher evaluation and

progress monitoring; (b) it creates an

environment where each student is constantly

motivated to excel and reach greater heights by

offering incentives in the form of assistantships,

rank awards, distinction awards and

scholarships; and (c) it provides proactive

career management facilities that help students

find internships and permanent jobs through a

variety of channels;

Total Student Development Program

(STAP): Exceptional students are awarded

student assistantships and an opportunity to

work closely with their teachers, assisting them

with their research and teaching. This

experience helps students to perform better.

engage in imparting education, promotion of

sanitation and hygiene among the down-

trodden children, indulge in National Service

Schemes and in environment protection in rural

areas.

improved, year after year, as multiple career

options (such as higher studies, placement in a

company, and entrepreneurship) have been set

out for students joining PES institutions.

focus of PES institutions. The quality

enhancement in scholastics has facilitated

achieving bigger and better placements to

students. Over 80 companies approach every

year to have PES students into their fold and the

brand of PES is gaining momentum in view of

outstanding performance of PES Alumni

working in these companies. The adoption of

government schools in the vicinity of the

University is another initiative that is building

the brand of PES. Industry on campus helps

Annual Report 2014

eaching and research are the primary functions of the PESU faculty and

are nourished by efficient administration. Administration, Research, TTeaching (ART) — are essential features in the PESU programs and make

comparable demands on ability and devotion. When the performance of a faculty

member is appraised, consideration will be given to high achievement in any of

these areas, and the value of the faculty member's total contribution will be

measured not only by the extent and nature of his or her other activities, but also

the effectiveness with which they are pursued. The responsibilities of the faculty

members with respect to ART are:

Administration: Participation in the administration of the University and

departments, including serving as members on University / department

committees, planning of campus-wide functions, and contributing to

departmental administration, to the development of the junior staff, and to

interdisciplinary collaboration.

Research: Research in all forms carried out to advance knowledge, to develop its

practical applications, or to improve an art, and thus of immediate or ultimate

societal benefit; contributions to scholarship resulting from research and study,

including publication of books, articles, and reports; contributions to journals,

meetings, or other activities of professional organizations of such a nature as to

advance the profession.

Teaching: Teaching students happen in formal classes and laboratories, in

informal groups and conferences, and by collaboration on research projects.

Preparation for such teaching by keeping abreast of current developments and

studying ways to present subject matter more effectively and to improve

teaching skills; participation in curriculum development and in preparation of

laboratory manuals and other material written primarily for their value to

teaching; providing counseling, guidance, and example to students in relation

not only to their academic programs but also to their professional standards and

general welfare; participation in student life to aid students in broadening their

experience and in preparing them to be responsible citizens.

At PES University, research is an integral part of

higher education - it enriches all aspects of

teaching and learning in the PES curriculum. We

have several well-established research

laboratories and Centres of Excellence (CoEs)

associated with various departments, where

our faculty and students come together to

create and apply knowledge in building

solutions that engineer a better life. Students

and faculty are encouraged to question, deep-

dive into and push the barriers of research

actively, in their day-to-day lives.

Research is energized and driven through a set

of recognized domains. Many of these domains

are interdisciplinary, and each provides unique

research experiences and comprehensive

exposure to undergraduate as well as post

graduate students. Domains such as cloud

c o m p u t i n g , k n o w l e d g e a n a l y t i c s ,

environmental biology, composite materials

and satellite technology are aligned with the

University's vision of being a globally ranked

University by 2020.

Domain Research Centres

Departments at PES focus on conducting

research in their selected domains. Students

select and research a topic of interest within a

specific field. Knowledge sharing between

undergraduate, postgraduate and doctorate

students ensures enhanced learning. The

outcome of the research translates into

publications and patents. The research domains

in the University are:.

F Mobile Systems Engineering Domain

the country. PES University was placed seventh

in the list of 'India's Most Trusted Educational

Institutes – 2014-15', a study conducted by

brand analytics and insights company TRA

(formerly Trust Research Advisory).

Hindu College, New Delhi, was voted the most

trusted educational institute in the study

conducted among 7,710 respondents across 40

cities. The Indian Institute of Technology, New

Delhi, was ranked second, followed by Loyola

College, Chennai; Anna University, Chennai; and

Hansraj College, New Delhi. TRA's study came

up with more than 30,000 institutes of which

the top 1,000 are listed in the report.

The first school that made it to the list at

number six was Delhi Public School, New Delhi.

PES University stood at seventh position

followed by Ramjas College, New Delhi; DAV

School, New Delhi; and Agarwal Siksha Samiti,

Jaipur. A release said that for the research, each

of the respondents (comprising students,

parents and faculty) were asked over 700

questions, of which 582 were 'thinking'

questions directly related to the educational

institute itself.

The study yielded over seven million data

points on various aspects of the institutes over

20,000 hours of fieldwork. The report lists

India's 1,000 Most Trusted Educational

Institutes, India's top 200 institutes on

Academic Parameters and 120 of India's Most

Preferred Courses.

As for the 'Education Quotient' of a city (the

report says it is not necessarily a measure of the

education density, as the size of the city

automatically warrants a larger number of

institutes), the results, the study says, are

skewed in favour of the top ten best ranked hubs

in India which contribute 67.1 per cent of the

1 , 0 0 0 m o s t t r u s t e d i n s t i t u t e s . N e w

Delhi/Mumbai top the list (89 institutes each)

followed by Bangalore with 77 institutions.

Course preference-wise, each of the 7,710

respondents had to name five courses, a

specialization for each course, the name of the

institute which offered the specific course and

the city where the institute was located. A total

of 22,857 unique courses emerged from a total

of 38,550 responses to this question.

The preferred courses include commerce, IT,

engineering, arts and law. IT moved to the fifth

position (with nine per cent preference) in a list

topped by commerce (19 per cent of the

respondents choosing it), followed by

engineering (16 per cent), management (14 per

cent), arts (12 per cent), law (six per cent), and

medical and science (five per cent each).
