The curricular changes and the enhancement of learning practices, require continuous and strategic transformation. Universities have achieved the enhancement of student learning, that has been implemented across the university as a result of commitment and professionalism across the institution.

The technical graduates require leadership and excellence in research and innovation, through new forms of learning methodologies and curricular enhancement.

Strategic development in teaching and important issues of learning lies in the contribution of individuals to academics, who are active and innovative in their own disciplinary areas. The needs of the learners are to be translated into strategic approaches and outcomes. Evaluation of outcome based education in the development of teaching and learning leads to excellence in overall value added skill developments. The most useful attributes of technical graduates is the development of critical thinking ability towards advanced learning technologies for overall economic growth and development. The academic curriculum with structured electives to broaden the student technical horizons is essential. The objective of strategic planning is to make realization of embedding the core content and structured electives into academic curriculum.
