Teaching–Learning Process

The Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering follows a structured teaching–learning process that emphasizes student-centered learning, outcome-oriented education, and practical skill development. The department adopts effective instructional practices that promote active engagement, conceptual clarity, and continuous academic improvement.

The teaching–learning process integrates innovative teaching methodologies, outcome based education, value added courses, online learning platforms, and project-based learning. These practices collectively aim to enhance technical competence, professional skills, lifelong learning abilities, and readiness to address industry and societal needs.

Student-Centered Learning

The department follows a student-centered learning approach that places learners at the core of the teaching–learning process. Emphasis is given to active engagement in classrooms, continuous mentoring, collaborative learning, and learner autonomy to promote deeper understanding and critical thinking. These practices encourage students to take responsibility for their learning while receiving consistent academic guidance and support, thereby enhancing overall learning effectiveness.

Innovative Teaching Methodologies

Innovative teaching–learning methodologies are adopted to enhance student competencies and improve learning outcomes. A combination of modern pedagogical practices, interactive teaching strategies, and technology-enabled tools is integrated into regular instruction. These approaches encourage active participation, improve conceptual clarity, and strengthen the linkage between theoretical knowledge and practical application.

Value Added Courses

Value added courses are offered beyond the prescribed curriculum to enhance industry-relevant skills and practical competencies. These courses effectively utilize existing laboratory facilities and focus on application-oriented learning, hands-on training, and exposure to current engineering tools and technologies. By bridging the gap between theory and practice, they prepare students for professional challenges and industry expectations.

SWAYAM / MOOCs

Participation in SWAYAM and other MOOCs is encouraged to complement classroom learning and promote self-paced and lifelong learning. These online courses provide flexibility in learning, allow learners to explore advanced and interdisciplinary topics, and offer access to high-quality academic content delivered by reputed institutions and subject experts. Such initiatives support independent learning and continuous professional development for both students and faculty.

Academic Projects

Academic projects form an integral part of the teaching–learning process and are undertaken at various stages of the program. Through structured project work, students apply theoretical concepts to practical engineering problems, gaining experiential learning opportunities. These projects foster innovation, teamwork, problem-solving abilities, and the development of technical and professional skills aligned with industry and societal needs.

Outcome Based Education (OBE)

Outcome Based Education (OBE) is implemented to align the teaching–learning process with clearly defined academic and professional outcomes. It emphasizes what students are expected to know, understand, and be able to perform upon completion of the program, focusing on competency development and application of knowledge.

Programme Educational Objectives (PEOs), Programme Outcomes (POs), Programme Specific Outcomes (PSOs), and Course Outcomes (COs) are systematically defined to guide curriculum planning, delivery, and assessment. Teaching strategies and evaluation methods are aligned with these outcomes, and attainment levels are periodically reviewed to support continuous improvement. The implementation of OBE is supported through a structured OBE manual and documented processes.
