Abstract

In the 21st century, learning opportunities and experiences of students have greatly improved with blended earning. This paper presents the case study of one such delivery method in undergraduate engineering education implemented for programme of Quality Enhancement in Engineering Education (QEEE) at BMS College of Engineering, Bangalore. The programme covered courses across various engineering branches. The course structure included modules for live classes, virtual labs, tutorials, bridge courses and MOOCs. Roles and responsibilities of the various stakeholders along with the infrastructure requirements for participating in QEEE are presented here. The paradigm is well accepted by both students and staff in the first year of its implementation. The evaluation data collected in this study include responses of all stakeholders collected through interviews and a questionnaire survey.

Abstract

Industry Institute Interaction has different perspective and different reasons to interact with each other. Both are mutually benefited from this interaction. Academia is the main source of knowledge for industry. In general, role of Industry is an important factor for research and outcome based education in engineering institutions. Outcome Based Education is incomplete without successful interaction between Industry and Engineering Institution. This paper present the activities under MOU'S signed between BMS college of Engineering and other IT Industries. These activities aim to achieve the different Programme Outcomes.

Abstract

The QEEE (Quality Enhancement in Engineering Education) team conducted a Bridge Course in Spoken English from August 2014 to November 2014 with an aim to augment communication and professional skills of engineering students across the nation. BMS College of Engineering had been actively involved in the Programme. The present paper offers an overview of the Programme throwing light on the Course Content, Programme Outcome and the Course Outcome of the Bridge Course. It also reflects how the Bridge course could be instrumental in leading the Engineering students to accomplish excellence in Technical Communication.
