Evaluation System Followed:

  • Under graduate level: The students who have been offered a prescribed number of courses in each semester are evaluated for 100 marks, including 50% internal, 50 % external but in the courses where there is no practicals classes internal marks are evaluated out of 20 marks (mid term), remaining 80% marks are automatically allotted for external examination The total marks obtained in each course are converted to grade poit on a 10-point scale and the grade point average for all the courses are computed for each semester. A student is eligible to obtain his degree if gets a minimum Overall Grade Point Average (OGPA) of 5.5 out of 10.
  • The University publications like college prospectus, course syllabus, academic rules & regulations etc., are supplied to each of the student at the time of his/her admission to various degree programs. The annual report of the College containing Teaching, Research, Extension, Administrative and Student Welfare activities is prepared every year and sent to the University for compiling and inclusion in the Annual Report of the University. In addition, the college has brought out a printed brochure furnishing information about the college.
  • Faculty interaction for students development: In addition to regular courses offered by the teachers, special coaching classes are arranged for the benefit of final year students who aspire to take up ICAR’s- Junior Research Fellowship and IIT GATE examinations for perusing higher studies leading to M. Tech. Degree program. In this regard, teachers have been designated as group leaders for each of the disciplines like farm machinery power, soil water conservation, post harvest technology etc. who are entrusted with the responsibility of arranging special lectures by identifying the teachers/ scientists in the concerned subjects. The special coaching classes have two fold objectives, firstly to prepare the interested students for facing JRF examination, secondly to prepare the students for GATE examination. Model question papers similar to ICAR-JRF examination are prepared in each course and the students are taught the mode of answering the questions. In addition, coaching classes for comprehensive examination in each discipline are arranged by the concerned disciplines. Further, the students are advised about the Job opportunities in different Govt. and Private sectors and also trained them to take up competitive examinations. Some times, the campus interviews are conducted for providing certain jobs by the private organizations. In the ICAR JRF examination, 2002 our college was at first position in the country on the basis of successful candidates in JRF Ag. Engg. discipline.

2.3 Methods to encourage teaching-learning process:

2.3.1 Instructional method:

  • Conventional class room instruction: The theory classes are conducted by the concerned teacher through conventional classroom instruction. In many departments several charts, models and transparencies related to the subjects have been developed/procured, which are being used as teaching aids in conducting theory and practical classes. However, students are given full liberty to ask any question related to the subject taught to clarify their doubts.
  • Special lectures: Special guest lectures on the topics related to the courses offered are arranged by inviting the Scientists of CSAUAT, Kanpur, and HBTI Kanpur, IIT Kanpur and other colleges as well as officials of State Development Departments.
  • Home Assignments: Home assignments on some topics related to the courses offered are given to the students.
  • Others: In addition to the above, the students are taken to various Research Stations, Scientific organizations, Tractor industry and other related organizations during educational tours (State Tour & All India Tour)

2.3.2 Instructional material:

  • Distributional of lecture schedules: In most of the courses, the lecture schedule (both for theory and practical), list of reference books, tentative schedule of examination and mode of evaluation are distributed to all the students during first week of the semester.
  • Distribution of instruction materials: The instructional materials for practical classes are prepared in the form of Laboratory or Practical Manuals and are distributed to all the students within 1-2 weeks of the commencement of the semester.

2.4 Evaluation of teaching program:

At present teaching proramme in respect of quality of teaching and courses offered, facilities available and problems of the campus are assessed through students’ discussions with faculty members.

2.5 Feed back from Alumni about teaching program:

Although formal evaluation of teachers so far has not been done but it is planned to be done through students by providing suitable proforma and guidelines.

(Agril. Engg.) of 4 years duration since then. Now it has also started B.Tech degree programs in Computer Science & Engg. and Electronics & Communication Engg. from the session 2002-2003. The intake approval for admission is 40 students per year, in B.Tech. Agril. Engg. and 40 students per year in electronics and communication Engg (ECE), and Computer Science & Engg (CSE) each.  The actual enrolment of students was 480 against 620 during 1994-95 to 2002-2003. 4.2     Admission policy: Students are admitted to the under graduate programs through UPCATET (Uttar Pradesh Combined Agriculture and Technology Entrance Test) conducted by Agriculture Universities of Uttar Pradesh rotationally. Seats are allotted according to the merit of the students in UPCATET and their choice at the time of counselling. Provision has been made for admitting 15% students in Agricultural Engineering through ICAR Quota. 4.3     Teacher-Student Ratio: The teacher-student ratio in the college is 1:15 including contractual teachers for theory and practical classes and is at per with the report of forth Dean’s Committee of ICAR. The above teacher-student ratio has been worked out by taking the average of students studying in all the four years of degree program for theory & practical classes as well as teachers engaged on contractual basis. 4.4     Students Financial Aid: Financial assistance to the needy students is being provided through UP Samaj Kalyan Vibhag and ICAR Delhi. 4.5     Students Counselling & Placement Service at the College: Students on their admission are divided into convenient batches by the Dean and each batch is assigned to one of the teachers, who are designated as Student Advisor. The advisor maintains the counselling record of the student in the format prescribed by the University. The advisor also establishes personal rapport with students assigned to him by periodical meetings, in order to understand their problems and provide remedial measures as may be necessary in consultation with the course teacher (s), and the Dean concerned. It is compulsory that the student on his own interest should meet the advisor from time to time in a semester failing which the advisor shall not sign the registration card for the next semester.

Among other things, the advisor helps the students in planning their academic programs. Only the designated advisor signs the registration card of the student. However, the concerned Head of Dept. or Dean in the absence of designated advisor can sign the registration card. All representations from the students are routed through their respective advisors. The advisor reports the progress of his advisee to the parent/ward in the prescribed format at regular interval. Names and designation of advisors from 1994-95 to 2014-15 of CAET, Etawah are given in Table 4.6.
