MASTER OF ENGINEERING (M.E.) PROGRAMMES

MODULAR MODE

1. Introduction
In realization of the need for training better quality technicians to meet the large-scale
industrialization of the country, the Ministry of Education, Government of India, on the
recommendations of All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), established four
Regional Technical Teachers’ Training Institutes (now National Institute of Technical
Teachers’ Training & Research, (NITTTR) at Bhopal, Chandigarh, Chennai and Kolkata in
1967. The institute at Chandigarh, started in collaboration with Royal Netherlands
Government (upto 1974), was designed to meet the requirements of developing polytechnic
education in the northern region covering the then states/UTs of Jammu and Kashmir,
Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Delhi and
Chandigarh. The institute during this time acted as a resource system to technical
education and provided guidance at national, state and institution levels in policy
formulation, planning and management, quality controls etc. The institute is registered
under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 and is managed by a Board of Governors.

To achieve its stated objectives, the institute undertakes the following spectrum of
activities: Education and Training Programmes; Curriculum Development; Instructional
Material Development; Research and Development; Extension Services; Consultancy in
Technical Education and Technology areas. Keeping in tune with the various emerging
needs of the country, the institute presently extends its services in the following areas as
well: Media Development including information resources, their acquisition, storage and
retrieval; Entrepreneurship Development; Industry Institute Interaction; Continuing
Education for Working Engineers/Technicians; Rural Development; Transfer of
Appropriate Technology to Rural Areas; Integrating Persons with Different Abilities with
the Mainstream of Technical and Vocational Education.

1
 Since 2003, engineering colleges in the northern region have been brought under the
purview of this institute as per the directions of Ministry of Education (then the MHRD).
Since then, this institute has been conducting many short-term courses in various subjects
for engineering college teachers, in addition to catering to their other needs. Further, the
institute is also organizing induction training programmes and content based short term
courses through ICT.
The status of the institute was elevated to a National Institute and renamed as National
Institute of Technical Teachers Training and Research on 18 November, 2003with an
objective to play a larger role for the improvement of Technical Education in the country.
Looking into the consistent performance and contribution in Technical Education
System, the institute has now been granted the status of Deemed to be University
under Distinct Category with effect from 22 February 2024.

 extension services to technical and vocational education system, industry and community.
The institute shall develop leadership in technical teacher training and provide educational
products and services to enable the technical education system to achieve excellence
internationally.

3. Objectives of M.E. Programmes

To keep pace with rapid advancement in technology, the country requires high quality
manpower with technical and managerial capabilities in the 21st Century. There are
primarily three distinct categories of technical manpower needed by the industry in the
country i.e., engineering, technicians and skilled workers. Personnel of each of these
categories play an equally important role in the day-to-day running as well as the
development and growth of industry. The institutions which are producing technical
manpower, therefore, need teachers who have the required knowledge and skills to train
good technicians and engineers.

Thus, there is a great need to reorient and upgrade the knowledge and skills of existing
teachers of technical institutions through Industry oriented and Practice based Programmes
in Engineering and Technology as Master’s Degree Level. These programmes will help
develop the professional capabilities desired by teachers for training technicians/engineers
that would meet the changing requirements of industry.

4. Accreditation of M.E. Programmes

Three M.E. Programmes, viz., M.E. in Computer Science and Engineering, M.E. in
Electrical Engineering (Instrumentation & Control), and M.E. in Electronics and

course credits and grades obtained by the candidate, grade point average is calculated.
b) Minimum Earned Credits: Completion of 80 earned credits including thesis work.
c) Weightage in each subject: Equal weightage will be given to internal assessment
(sessional) and end semester/spell examination (major examination).
d) A candidate with CGPA of 8.5 and above will be awarded M.E. degree with Honours.
e) Examination forms by the candidate are required to be submitted with the institute for
end- semester/spell and re-appear examinations.
Preliminary Thesis Work/Thesis Work
Four neatly typed or printed copies of Thesis properly bound, out of which two copies shall
be submitted to the Head of the concerned Department through Guide and a copy to Head,
Academic Cell of the institute for keeping a record in the institute library. The thesis grades
shall be awarded as per criteria approved by the institute.
13. Evaluation and Improvement
Subject wise results in the form of grades awarded to each student at the end of each
spell/semester shall be prepared by the respective departments and sent to the academic cell
examination branch for the declaration of result and issuance of grade cards. Before

8
sending the grades to the academic cell, the subject teacher will display the grades awarded
to the students on the notice board within 10 working days after showing the answer sheets
to the students. The process of evaluation is completed within 15 working days from the
date of conduct of examination. If a candidate is not satisfied with the award of marks in a
particular paper(s), he/she may approach the concerned M.E. Coordinator for rechecking, if
any as per the rules and regulations of the institute.
The performance of a student shall be evaluated in terms of two indices, viz. Spell Grade
point Average (SGPA) and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA).
SGPA is the grade point average for the spell and CGPA is the cumulative grade point
average for all the completed spells at any point in time.
The grades, their respective description, the method for the Award of Grades, along with
grade points are listed in the Table given below:
Marks Grade Grade Point Description
≥ 90 A+ 10 Outstanding
≥ 80 &< 90 A 9 Excellent
≥ 70 &< 80 B+ 8 Very Good
≥ 60 &< 70 B 7 Good
≥ 50 &< 60 C+ 6 Average
≥ 45 &< 50 C 5 Below average
≥ 40 &< 45 D 4 Marginal
< 40 F 0 Very Poor
- R 0 Shortage of Attendance
- I 0 Incomplete

The Earned Credits (EC) are defined as the sum of course credits for courses in which A+ to
D grade has been obtained.
Points earned in a semester =
Ʃ (Course Credits X Grade Points) for courses in which A+ to D grade has been obtained
The SGPA is calculated on the basis of grades obtained in all courses.
𝑃𝑜𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑠𝑒𝑐𝑢𝑟𝑒𝑑 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑆𝑝𝑒𝑙𝑙
SGPA = 𝐶𝑟𝑒𝑑𝑖𝑡𝑠 𝑟𝑒𝑔𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑑 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑆𝑝𝑒𝑙𝑙

CGPA = 𝐴𝑙𝑙 𝑆𝑝𝑒𝑙𝑙𝑠 (𝐶𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑠𝑒 𝐶𝑟𝑒𝑑𝑖𝑡𝑠 𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑛𝑒𝑑)

Conversion formula from CGPA to Percentage = 10 x CGPA

preventive measures. If any incident of ragging comes to the notice of the authority, the
concerned student shall be given liberty to explain and if his/her explanation is not
found satisfactory, the authority would expel him/her from the institution. It is
mandatory as per the Hon. Supreme Court & UGC/AICTE Regulations that all students
fill in an Anti- Ragging Affidavit, each year.

To make the process easy, MoE has developed an ONLINE Facility. Affidavits can be
filled ONLINE at: www.amanmovement.org (OR) at www.antiragging.in. All students
are required to fill their Affidavits on any of the two web sites. The procedure is very
simple and explained on the institute website.

 Preparation of Merit List
The institute prepares a merit list of all sponsored eligible candidates based on the
aggregate percentage of marks obtained in all the semesters/years of qualifying
examination and the total experience. The admission is granted to candidates strictly
according to the merit list, prepared as follows:
a) Qualification: Aggregate % of marks in B.E. or its equivalent X 4 (Multiplying Factor)
The candidates must write in the application form at the appropriate S. No. the
maximum marks, marks obtained in each of eight semesters/four years and the exact %
of aggregate marks.
