CRITERION 4: STUDENT SUPPORT AND ADVISING:


Standard 4-1 Courses must be offered with sufficient frequency and number of
students to complete the programme in a timely manner
Courses for each Spring Semester and Fall Semester along with their respective credit hours for
theory and practical, as notified in relevant prospectus, are shown in the Table 4-1.1.
EL undergraduate core courses are offered in every spring and fall semester; elective courses are
frequently offered depending on two main factors: (a) Local industrial needs and higher educational
goals, and (b) Students demand.
To teach these courses, qualified faculty staff is assigned the courses relevant to their field of
specialization or research.
Page 16 of 41

Self Assessment Report Electronic Engineering Department

The Department of Electronic Engineering has taken one step forward in offering technical courses
by keeping in view the current demands of the industry. Trained faculty staff is motivated to offer
special training courses that are helpful for student in getting jobs. This practice has also increased
the lab utilization and effective use of equipment in the respective labs.

Standard 4-2 Courses in the major must be structured to ensure effective


interaction between students, faculty and teaching assistants.
Every faculty member provides already defined counselling hours weekly. Each teacher emphasizes
a discussion on the objectives of the course and grading distribution in initial sessions.
Every faculty member submits a course plan and sessional criteria to the respective class advisor at
the beginning of the session. The attendance sheet of every class contains a field Topic of the
class, which helps the advisor to track the progress of every course.

Standard 4-3 Guidance on how to complete the Programme must be available to all
students and access to qualified advising must be available to make course
decisions and career choice.
4-3.1 Guidance to Students
Students are encouraged to be responsible for knowing their own academic standing and
requirements in reference to University standards, regulations, and degree completion. The
University publishes the Undergraduate Prospectus every year describing all University
Programme requirements. The mission, objectives, course requirements and course options for
all the courses offered by the department are provided in the Prospectus. Department also
provides important information on its website and notice boards, which provide the students
with necessary curriculum information including the admission requirements, required courses
and pre-requisites(if any) for each programme and list of elective courses.

4-3.2 Student Advising System


In specific circumstances, students have to consult their respective advisors and obtain approval
for special requests such as selection of courses. However, in all circumstances students are
strongly encouraged to consult their respective advisors during course registration for seeking
expert advice. The faculty members in the Department provide extra hours during these
activities. Furthermore, the Student Affairs Department organizes lectures and social meetings in
each academic year, where students and faculty exchange concerns and have informal
discussions.
The First Year students have session with library administration to get familiarity with the
library and book lending system. The information related to library is also available on the
library website and the library staffs help the student to use the library database system. The
Department of Electronic Engineering also have its own library which contains the most
referenced books in the Department. Moreover, the Final Year Project reports of all the passed
out batches are present in this library.
The students also have one session with the staff of computer centre, located in the Department
of Electronic Engineering. The staff distributes the ID and PW of the student portal and also
guides about the use of this portal. The portal contains the information related to courses
offered, examination results and student attendance.

4-3.3 Student Counselling System


Counselling is a collaborative process, which involves the development of a unique,
confidential help-oriented relationship. EL department treats all of its contacts with students in
high confidentiality.
Individual counselling: A student meets with a counsellor/teacher on a one-to-one basis
to work through personal concerns.
Group counselling: Counselling in groups offers a broad range of insight and support
from peers and faculty.

4-3.4 Student Interaction


The following summarize the opportunities available for students to interact:

Orientation Day:
The Orientation day is an annual event organized by the department on the first day of every
year,i.e. spring semester of every year in which the department introduces all faculty members
and officers of the University to the students. It also provides opportunity to seek more
information for those students who have second thoughts about the field/discipline they have
chosen. They can ask questions about the discipline and the future prospects with the faculty and
the departments administration. Special arrangements are made for this day including video
demonstrations about Electronics Department (history, development, interviews of alumnietc).
There are scheduled sessions in which the senior faculty of the department elaborate the facilities
and the future scope of Electronics Department.

Carrier Expo:
Departmentorganises an annual event where industries are invited to observe students final year
project and achievements. Companies conduct interviews and provide carrier advice to the
students. In this way the student gets update about what is currently going on in the industry and
how they can manage their studies to cope up with industry challenges.

SPEC:
Department organises another annual event called Student Project Exhibition and Competition
(SPEC). The event was first organized in 2006 as an inter-departmental event, but within two
years the event was organized at all Karachi level. Teams from all over the Karachi participate in
different competitions of SPEC including Speed Programing, Hardware Design, Project
Exhibition, Poster design competition etc. Judges (mostly alumni) are invited from industries so
that they can judge and advice the students about their project according to the needs of the
industry.

SUMMER & WINTER SCHOOL:


Department of OMAN IT (under the administration of Department of Electronic Engineering)
organizes another technical session during winter and summer vacations. Students and faculty
members are encouraged to attend the session in which training on two industry leading
software is given.

SPARK:
Started in 2007, SPARK magazine is the voice of all the students of the department. The
magazine not only contains engineering articles but also includes interviews of the faculty
members and industry professionals, which is an effective way of reducing the gap between
teacher and the student. The students also present their views about the university
Page 18 of 41

Self Assessment Report Electronic Engineering Department

administration, faculty and the environment which is another way of getting feedback from the
students. The SPARK magazine has also encouraged students to improve their technical writing
skills. The magazine also suffices the academic profile of all the students of Final Year, which is
helpful for industries to sort most competent student according to their own criteria. The
magazine is distributed free of cost to all the students of the department, while their official
copies are sent to almost all the relevant companies.
