Overview
In view of the NAAC Cycle Revised Maturity-Based Accreditation, Revised NBA Outcome-Centric Framework, and global ranking systems like QS Sustainability, and THE Impact Rankings & NIRF (SDG focus), Higher Education Institutions must realign their curriculum and teaching-learning practices. Generation Z learners demand relevance, innovation, and purpose, expecting institutions to foster problem-solving, creativity, and entrepreneurial skills.
To respond to these imperatives, the IQAC is organizing a 5-day intensive workshop aimed at transforming curriculum delivery through industry-aligned, SDG-integrated, and outcome-driven problem statements.
