Abstract
The current quality paradigm proposed by NationalBoard of Accreditation (NBA) and AICTE governing theEngineering education has not really translated into anysignificant growth in the number of quality graduates acceptableto industry, due to insufficient availability of qualified faculty, teaching methodology, evaluation techniques and processes. Increase in the number of autonomous institutions has createdanother challenge in the higher education in terms ofaccreditation. Recent introduction of a well-known paradigmcalled Outcome Based Education (OBE) has been partiallyunderstood and created several gaps between "the truth" andwhat is being perceived. Author of this paper presents a case study on OBEimplementation and highlights the gap between the actualconcepts of OBE and the existing practice. This paper alsoproposes several strategies to implement in true sense.
