2. The Curriculum is prepared in Semester Pattern. However, First Year is maintained as Yearwise pattern.
3. 6 Months Industrial training has been introduced for 3 years Diploma Courses and 1 year
Industrial Training is introduced for 3 ½ years Sandwich Diploma courses.
4. Updated subjects relevant to the industry are introduced in all the Diploma courses.
5. CISCO course content has been incorporated into the ECE and CME programmes for
certification from CISCO in lieu of industrial training when students are unable to get
Industrial Training placement in any industry.
6. The policy decisions taken at the State and Central level with regard to environmental science
are implemented by including relevant topics in Chemistry. This is also in accordance with the
Supreme Court guidelines issued in Sri Mehta’s case.
7. Keeping in view the increased need of communication skills which is playing a major role in
the success of Diploma Level students in the Industries, emphasis is given for learning and
acquiring listening, speaking, reading and writing skills in English. Further as emphasized in
the meetings, Communication Skills lab and Life Skills lab are continuing for all the branches.
8. CAD specific to the branch has been given emphasis in the curriculum. Preparing drawings
using CAD software has been given more importance.
9. Upon reviewing the existing C-16 curriculum, it is found that the theory content is found to
have more weightage than the Practical content. In C-20 curriculum, more emphasis is given
to the practical content in Laboratories and Workshops, thus strengthening the practical
skills.
10. With increased emphasis for the student to acquire Practical skills, the course content in all
the subjects is thoroughly reviewed and structured as outcome based than the conventional
procedure based.
11. Curricula of Laboratory and Workshops have been thoroughly revised based on the
suggestions received from the industry and faculty, for better utilization of the equipment
available in the Polytechnics. The experiments /exercises that are chosen for the practical
sessions are identified to confirm to the field requirements of industry.
12. An exclusive section for assessing Higher order Thinking skills (HOTS) has been introduced in
summative evaluation.
