Comprehensive Academic System
To achieve the goal of imparting quality education and also to instill confidence in the minds of students to face challenges in their professional career, the whole edifice of academic system is based on the tripod of (i) Attendance, (ii) Teaching- Learning Process and (iii) Academic Integrity.

(i) Attendance
Regular class attendance is fundamental to the orderly acquisition of knowledge.
In Academy utmost importance is given to regular class attendance which is a responsibility and a privilege of engineering education. Students should recognize the advantages of regular class attendance, accept it as a personal
responsibility and apprise themselves of the consequence of poor attendance. Right at the beginning of every semester, the students are exposed to an orientation programme with a view to give them complete perception of engineering education with particular emphasis on importance of regular class attendance.

During the last academic year, 64 students were rewarded for 100% attendance and 258 students were rewarded for 95% to 99% attendance.

(ii) Competency Building Teaching- Learning Process
Academy of Technology regulates the Teaching- Learning activities with following comprehensive manner for Imparting Quality Education.
 
Orientation Programme for Educators:
  • Arrangement of workshop at the beginning of every semester to review previous semester teaching-learning process, adopt steps to remove the flaws, introduce new ideas  and chalk out teaching plan for the next semester.
  • Based on the feedback received from the various cross section of students, counselling to desired faculty members for improvement.
  • Provision for extra hours in class routine to (i) teach the prescribed syllabus in a relaxed fashion; (ii) impart value added training for improvement of employability skills (pre-final and final year students).
  • Distribution of detailed syllabus and lecture plans are given to the students at the beginning of the every semester. 
 Course Delivery in Comprehensive Manner:
  • Proper reallocation of classes on daily basis (if required) to ensure no class is let off.
  • Delivery of class room instruction with emphasis to power point presentation and proper animation to make the lecture illustrative and understandable.
  • Advice regarding use of printed and e-resources for some such information which either are not available in text books or need to be updated.
  • Question Banks are provided to students to provide them opportunity to assess their own understanding of subjects.
  • Video lecture, lecture from industry experts to enhance the exposure and application knowledge.
  • In lab works, the students are allowed to explore, investigate and critically examine the instruments, experiments and design methodology. Some space is available here for independent thinking.
  • In GDs and Seminars, students are advised to choose topics not covered in the texts and in the prescribed syllabi; once again they are allowed to choose freely the subjects of topical interest for their final level projects and thesis work. 
 Performance Monitoring:
  • Regular attendance monitoring (The software used for the purpose has been indigenously developed). Motivating students for self learning.
  • Monitoring students progress and difficulties in learning and performing.
  • Review/ adjustment in instruction delivery methods if required.
 Assessment & Appraisal:
  • Regular class assignment, quiz on subject topics to review the students attainment of instructional outcomes.
  • Well planned three class tests (pre scheduled) to help the students gauge their level of progress and help the faculty member adopt monitoring and corrective measures.
  • University examination system with high integrity.
Mentoring Weaker/Way Wards:
  • Regular monitoring and counselling for attendance and academic activities improvement to bring back way wards to main stream.
  • Remedial lectures/tutorials beyond class hours.
  • Interaction with parents if required.
(iii) Academic Integrity:
Examinations have been referred to as “The Central Nervous System of the Education” and thus it is such an integral part of education system that it cannot be dispensed with.
Every individual students, faculty and staff of Academy of Technology do believe that unfair examination system whether it is home assignment, internal examination or university examination is the ultimate violation of academic integrity which is not only harmful to other students or faculty but also to the entire society.
The students and teacher community of this state have recognized the examination system of AOT as ideal and best. Our examination system makes our students hardworking motivated and thus enable them to get right placement and/ or opportunity of higher studies through competitive examination and it has already been established.
