Faculty is the backbone of any educational Institute for Quality Assurance in professional Education.
Institute should be able to attract, train, motivate, and retain talented faculty. For training and
development of faculty, so far, by and large, the professional education system depends on initiatives
from government agencies.

Today most of engineering colleges in country are facing acute shortage of quality faculty because
of following reasons:

• The Technical education in country is experiencing such an unprecedented demand
  outstripping the supply of good faculty members.
  
• The quality institutes offering masters and doctoral programs are limited and
  produce only a fraction of what this sector requires.
  
• There is a huge demand for the industry for well qualified engineers.
  
• Teaching as career is considered a last option since it is not as rewarding financially
  as industry.
  
• Teaching is considered less challenging than professional career.

In the teaching-learning process colleges are not complete unless it covers all the three dimensions
i.e. Creation of Knowledge (Research), Application of Knowledge (Use in practical situations) and
transmission of Knowledge to next generation (Teaching). The huge paucity of quality manpower in
academics has forced colleges to put fresh graduates straightway on the job of teaching. They have
little or no experience in handling the teaching process nor college have enough number of senior
teachers to guide them resulting into the poor quality of teaching.
