Preamble

The liberalization and globalization of economy have brought new opportunities and challenges in all areas of human endeavor including education. As in other sectors, educational institutions have to adopt new strategies to make the best use of the opportunities and counter the challenges.

Quality has always been a concern for individuals as well as institutions but it has acquired new significance in the recent past. Organizations treat quality as an important component of their strategy to remain competitive.

In the backdrop of these developments, AICTE has taken many initiatives to improve quality of technical education in the country. In order to sensitize organizations about quality, AICTE conducted a survey of innovative practices being used by the technical education institutions. In this regard, a questionnaire was sent to all the institutions, soliciting information on the practices. The responses were analyzed by a committee of senior academicians. The practices have been grouped in three categories viz. Best Practices, Progressive Practices and Other Practices as listed in the tables.

It is expected that other technical education institutions would interact with these institutions in order to benefit from their experience
