IQAC

Since quality enhancement is a continuous process, the IQAC becomes a part of the institution's system and works towards realization of the goals of quality enhancement and sustenance.As per the UGC guidelines, Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) is established at NMIT with the Principal; Dr. H C Nagaraj being the Chairman.The prime task of the IQAC is to develop a system for conscious, consistent and catalytic improvement in the overall performance of the institution. It promotes measures for institutional functioning towards quality enhancement through internalization of quality culture and institutionalization of best practices.The IQAC ensures that whatever is done in the institution for “education” is done efficiently and effectively.It will not be yet another hierarchical structure or recordkeeping exercise in the institution; it will be a facilitative and participativevoluntary system/unit/organ of the institution. The IQAC has the potential to become a vehicle for ushering in quality by working out intervention strategies to remove deficiencies and enhance quality.
