Some Innovative Practices on Quantity and Quality of Engineering Education and Research

becomes an international service, which concerns both quantity and quality assurance mechanisms [6]. That is quantity in terms of access to engineering education and quality in terms of relevance and degree of academic excellence. There is a great challenge indeed for internationalization of engineering education and research by the institutions with relevant to the current and projected needs of our society and industries. Their academic potential, credibility and excellence have to grow with respect to time. The ideas and ideals of the institutions should evolve and change with respect to trends worldwide, international and national requirement. Our current engineering education must adopt open, transparent and efficient system so as to produce value added knowledgeable trained human power. Both quantity and quality shall depend up on curriculum aspects, teaching-learning process, performance evaluation, productivity of faculty, staff and students, research and development, consultancy and extension, students ’ support and progression, educational innovations, enhancement strategies, plans for institutional growth, feedback from stake holders, innovations in the organization, management and communication[4].
