Value Based Curriculum Design for Engineering Studies
Education apart from the basic needs of food, clothing and shelter, is another key factor to empower an individual. It acts as an enabler to elevate a person socially and from within. Education system has been evolving since human existence and various approaches are being used to teach. Focusing on professional courses, the quality of education is questioned and stands as a concern along with the unemployment issues. In India, there is a huge potential for technology growth. However, as per the National employability report, only 3.84% of engineers qualify for a startup technology role. Further, 2016 employability rate has been 17.91%, 3.67% and 40.57% for IT Services, IT Products and Business Process Outsourcing respectively. Apart from this, there are many forums in which the quality of education is being questioned, since education is linked with the job or business opportunity. One of the essentials in the professional courses is the curriculum design. It is very important to start with the curriculum that can enhance the knowledge of students and also make a prospective career. With these in mind, the improvement options have to be deeply thought and charted out. In this regard, a survey has been taken up with engineering professionals to get their feedback on how they view the education system. This paper focuses on the feedback from working engineering professionals, compares the existing and other curriculum options and provides a proposal for a value based curriculum design.
