Engineering excellence model for Indian engineering institutions

The exponential growth of engineering institutions in India necessitates quality processes, resources and manpower to produce engineering graduates capable of meeting industries' requirements. This requires the implementation of Excellence models and in this context, the Engineering Excellence model (E
²
m) has been developed. The model has 10 criterions, on a 1000 scale and has been implemented in an engineering institution, with pre and post implementation audits. The pre implementtation score was 388 and it improved considerably in a period of one year to 618 after post implementation, achieving continuous quality improvements and marching towards excellence.
