Students are the recipient of the delivery of course material, through theirteachers. The program is actively evaluated by Dean, Coordinator program andQEC. The feedback of the taught is best instrument to measure that the courselearning outcomes are met. The students give feedback on Performa number 1regarding course contents and how it was delivered. Through Performa number10, students evaluate and comment on teacher’s efforts, put in to deliver thecourse contents, his general conduct in the class, the environment, he, maintainsand extra efforts, he makes to satisfy students, thirst for knowledge and isattached in Annexure H.

HEC Performa 5 is also used for faculty feedback and Performa 5 is used toevaluate the course contents, learning and teaching environments and overallteachers’ satisfaction level. Which is a very useful activity to evaluate the coursecontents, learning and teaching environments and overall teachers’ satisfactionlevel. Course evaluation by teachers also indicates what percentage of desiredoutcome has been achieved by the course contents and what needs to beimproved or changed is attached in Annexure D.

This exercise is done once a year. The feedback is discussed with Dean andCoordinator program, who focus on making improvements in the weak areas,identified by the students. Teacher’s evaluation performs are fed to the computerand bar charts are made. Each teacher is graded out of 5 marks. The comparativebar charts indicate level of performance of teachers, as visualized by the students.QEC formally submits these bar charts to Dean and Vice Chancellor for theirinformation and taking of necessary corrective actions Performa 2.

Standard 5-5

The process that ensures that graduates have completed the requirementsof the program must be based on standards, effective and clearlydocumented procedures. This process must be periodically evaluated toensure that it is meeting its objectives..The program is run on semester basis and at the end of each semesterexaminations are held to evaluate the student’s progress in that semester.Qualified students are allowed to join next semester and this cycle continues tillthe end of 8th semester which is the final semester. At the end of 8th semester allstudents are required to submit their respective projects. Student’s final results areannounced on the basis of projects results and examination results.

Requirements of this standard are met through 3 Performa’s issued by HEC. Thefeedback is documented and its evaluation indicates degree of satisfaction of the
