Please refer to Annexure – II 2.9 Describe the relevance and coherence of Institutional Development Proposal with State’s/National (in case of CFIs) Industrial / Economic Development Plan. The institutional development proposal focuses on the following areas. In the 11th five-year plan, there has been a great increase in allocation in higher education and research has been made the focus area. The research outputs, particularly in engineering, do not compare favourably with those of the developed countries which is a matter of concern. This proposal on TEQIP-II is also directed towards improving the situation. Cutting edge research in emerging areas like materials engineering, energy and environment, software engineering, disaster management, CFD, process modelling and simulation, high voltage engineering, bio-engineering, structural engineering, communications, water resource, etc. have been focused in the proposal. All these are high up in order of priority in national technology research plan. The Institute proposes to focus more on post graduate education. The ratio of sanctioned annual intakes of UG and PG students sharply decreased from 2.17 to 1.35 over the last three years and is expected to fall further after TEQIP-II. The PG education and doctoral programmes in engineering will be strengthened. This endeavour is in line with the government initiative to bridge the gap between the demand and supply of quality teachers in our technical institutions. The proposal incorporates collaborative programmes with institutes and industries, including the neighbouring ones. This will help the neighbouring industries get vital technological inputs from the Institute and synergistic efforts will create new intellectual property. National Institute of Technology Durgapur Sub-component 1.2 20 2.10 Describe briefly the participation of departments/faculty in the proposal preparation and implementation. Institutional Coordinators of SWOT and TNA compiled the SWOT analysis and TNA reports of the departments. All engineering departments went through several brain-storming sessions with all their faculty-members along with other staff and student-representatives while preparing the proposal based on SWOT analysis and TNA. Vital inputs from the alumni in India and abroad were also incorporated. An Institute-level meeting was also conducted to finalize the SWOT analysis and guide the preparation of the proposal. Research proposals from various faculty members were included after scrutiny. Each department formed a task force with one departmental coordinator to compile the departmental proposal on TEQIP-II. The TEQIP Coordinator and the nodal Officers compiled the departmental proposals to finally prepare the IDP. During implementation TEQIP-II, TEQIP Coordinator and Nodal Officers will supervise the activities in different components. Implementation at the department levels will be coordinated by the Departmental coordinator and the task force. 2.11 Describe the institutional project implementation arrangements. In TEQIP (Phase-I), the Institute formed 35 committees, including departmental ones, to implement the programme. A similar comprehensive arrangement has been planned this time too. Under the leadership of Director, TEQIP activities of NIT Durgapur will be coordinated by TEQIP Coordinator and five nodal officers. The following committees have been formed to implement the activities under different components of TEQIP-II. The number of committees being large, covering a major fraction of the faculty members of the Institute, most of the faculty members will have a sense of ownership for the project. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

Experiments will be carried out either in TGA/DTA or in isothermal mass loss apparatus to obtain weight loss data. The evolved gases will be passed through an FTIR analyzer for closely monitor the evolution rate of individual gasses. The experimental data will provide the important information to develop the detail kinetics of individual species in evolved gases rather a gross kinetic model. Kinetic parameters for pyrolysis/Combustion (order of reaction, activation energy, etc) are generally unknown for Indian coals. These data for Indian coals and biomass of different species will be important addition to the design data bank. Proposed plan of activities: The process of pyrolysis, combustion and gasification are very complex process and it is even more complicated for reaction of solids. The pyrolysis and combustion of coal and biomass is an example of gas solid non-catalytic reaction with mass and heat transfer limitations. Due to this very complex nature the reaction kinetics is solely depends both on reaction conditions like operating temperature, particle size, reactor type and also on the types of coal and biomass. Detailed experimental studies on single particle are proposed to be carried out for coal, biomass, and blended coal and biomass to obtain pyrolysis, combustion kinetics parameters. The study includes the wide range of operating process conditions and also for different types of Indian coal staring from low ash to high ash and low volatiles to very high volatiles. The pyrolysis and combustion reactions will be carried out separately in the TGA/DTA or in Isothermal mass loss apparatus to obtain weight loss data. Simultaneously the evolved gases will be sent through the FTIR. The composition of evolved gases will be determined and will be noted for any time instances. This will provide to develop the kinetic model for the different gases during the course of pyrolysis or combustion. Infrastructure & expertise available : A Combustion Engineering Laboratory has been set up under the DST-FIST program where a Drop-tube furnace, a mass-loss apparatus and a fluidized bed combustor have already been installed. A TGA-DTA and a GC has also been procured under the program. However, for comprehensive studies on combustion and gasification need a few more facilities which could not be included in DST-FIST due to shortage of fund. The most prominent among these is FTIR spectrometer. The instruments do the analysis of individual component of evolved gases during the course of pyrolysis and combustion.

Reaction frame & column for horizontal actuator Justification (in brief) Existing facilities in PG Structural Laboratory demand for modernization, upgradation and augmentation in view of the technological advancement. Consequently, some equipments are essentially required to be purchased to maintain experimental programme of routine PG Laboratory classes and very few are required to set a step forward for PG and faculty Research. With the available budgetary allocation, which is very meager in amount, initiation of experimental setup to be made by the procurement of very few equipments. In addition, according to the recent implementation of OBC reservation policy of Govt. of India, the student strength of PG level have gone up and arrangement/enhancement of the equipments become essential. Furthermore, the laboratory facilities is being used by the PG students (only PG course run by the department in structural engineering) for their project works. The support to the adjoining industrial belt and community services is only possible through rigorous testing using these existing equipments and to be purchased. The same may also contributing sufficiently towards the generation of resources of the institute. At present there is no reaction frame in the department for the application of horizontal dynamic load. Hence the same is placed for approval. The same will also be useful for PG works ix 2.

Objective: Proper modeling of a physical model with new generation software /FEM packages can only predict it’s behaviour assisting practicing engineers to design a structure economically. Analytical methods may evaluate ovalisation moment due to Brazier Effect much on higher side increasing reinforcement requirement to a large extent and hoop stress much on lower side. As a result hoop reinforcement becomes highly uneconomical. Moreover this methods mostly followed by the professionals in the industry either overestimates the critical /design stresses increasing thereby overall cost of the structure or fails to depict true nature of deformation. On the otherhand, finite element discretisation for this entire structural domain may only help us to realize it’s true behaviour, therefore renders a structure more economically viable. The proposed work could be cost effective and efficient numerical simulation of axi-symmetric structures with a view to develop an approximate method, which may be incorporated in the IS code of practice.

Maruzen Model Rs. 1.00 lakh Total : Rs. 2.00 lakhs lv R&D Project –2 Title of the project : Magnetic Susceptibility Measurement on Transition metal Complexes Objective: The main objective of this research work is to synthesize the transition metal complexes with ligands having the neutral N and/or thioether S donor centers and their characterization by various spectroscopic methods including X-ray structures. The metal complexes with labile ligands such as chloride will provide an opportunity to bridge another metal center to it. The magnetic study of such bridged complexes is important to find out the possibility of antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic coupling of the unpaired electrons on the metal centers. The metal ions such as Ni, Fe and Cu will be studied for this purpose. As a bridging group the O2-, OH-, Cl-, N3-, SCN- and so on can be utilized depending on the feasibility of the reaction and nature of the organic ligand that binds to the metal centers. For preliminary understanding of the number of unpaired electron present in the sample, the magnetic susceptibility measurement will be very much helpful. We have used before an instrument, namely Magnetic Susceptibility Balance, where from, one can determine the magnetic moment at room temperature of a metal complex having different number of unpaired electrons in the metal ‘d’ or ‘f’ orbital specifically. This is small instrument, not require much space or extra precaution to maintain properly. Furthermore, we have a FTIR instrument in our Department, procured from Plan Grant. For proper maintaining a moisture free environment for this instrument, we need to install a dehumidifier.

To study the convective flow of liquid metals. To study nonlinear waves in dusty plasma. Description of problem - I Thermal convection is observed almost everywhere in the universe : industrial appliances, atmosphere, ocean, interiors of planets, stars etc. However, to study convection in arbitrary geometry is quite complicated. Therefore an idealized version of the problem called Rayleigh Bènard Convection (RBC) has been studied for many years . In RBC a thin layer of fluid is kept between two horizontal conducting plates and heated underneath. A plethora of interesting phenomenon like instability, pattern, chaos, spatiotemporal chaos, and turbulence are exhibited by RBC which fascinated researchers for many years. The origin of instabilities, chaos, and turbulence in convection is one of the major research topics of convection. Moreover, to study the effect of magnetic field on the instabilities and patterns is a very interesting problem with tremendous industrial applications. There are some experimental as well as simulation results which report many interesting patterns including stationary squares, chaotically oscillating squares and hexagons etc. very near to the instability onset of liquid metal convection. But there is no clear understanding about the origin and bifurcations of these patterns. In the project we are willing to study the origin of numerous patterns and chaos in liquid metal convective flow using direct numerical simulation as well as low dimensional modeling. Moreover, we are also interested to study the effect of magnetic field on these patterns. Description of problem – II Dusty plasma is a complex system. It can be defined as a plasma with highly charged and extremely massive dust grains. It is omnipresent in the universe. Dusty plasma is present in cometary tails, planetary rings, ionosphere etc. The interstellar space is filled with vast medium of gas and dust. The presence of dust in solar nebula has been confirmed. We propose to study different types of wave phenomena in dusty plasma. The study of nonlinear phenomena has been an active area of research for last several decades. It has helped us to get important insights about the dynamics of complex systems. Also, nonlinear studies can act as a bridge linking different disciplines of Physics, Mathematics and other related branches of science. Proposed plan of activities: Problem – I : In the first part we will investigate the origin of numerous patterns and chaos in liquid metal convective flow. The effect of magnetic field on the flow will be considered in the second part. Problem – II : Investigate nonlinear solitary waves in a multicomponent dusty plasma. Infrastructure and expertise available: The study which we propose to undertake in this project involves direct numerical simulation of the governing partial differential equations using a parallel spectral code based on fast fourier transform (FFT). The code works effectively on high end multi-core desktops. Presently our department only has some dual core desktops which is insufficient for this study. As far as expertise is concerned, we already have a good number of publications in reputed international journals like Physical Review E, Physics of Plasmas, Europhysics Letters etc. in this field. Moreover, we have active collaboration with Prof. Krishna Kumar, Department of Physics, Meteorology, IIT Kharagpur and Prof. Mahendra K. Verma, Department of Physics, IIT Kanpur and Prof. Rajkumar Roychowdhury, lxviii Physics and Applied Mathematics Unit, ISI, Kolkata who are recognized as leading experts in India in the subject.

National Institute of Technology Durgapur Sub- component 1.2 19 Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering 1. Give the details of SWOT analysis carried out. (v) Main Strengths The department of Electronics & Communication Engineering was started in 1983 with an intake of 30 students. From the very first batch, the best students opted for Electronics & Communication Engineering, so the intake was gradually increased to 60 in 2000 and consequently to 92 in 2010. The teaching faculties of the department are qualified and good. The have the potential to elevate the department towards excellence. The faculty members have been working in different field of electronics and communication engineering which can be broadly classified in to three categories namely (1) microwave engineering and antennas (2) microelectronics and VLSI (3) wireless and mobile communication. These are the three areas of research where clusters could be formed to enhance the present standing of these groups. The department started two M. Tech courses namely Telecommunication Engineering and Microelectronics and VLSI. The former was started in 2005 and the later in 2008. In both these courses mostly GATE qualified candidates are admitted and they help in conducting research activity through their M. Tech project work. So three groups of teachers along with the research students and M. Tech students are doing active research in the fields (1) microwave engineering and antennas (2) microelectronics and VLSI (3) wireless and mobile communication A state of the art Microelectronics and VLSI lab with all the major EDA tools are available in the department through SMDP project in VLSI. B. Tech, M. Tech and PhD students belonging to this research area work with these tools. Presently there are 7 teachers with PhD degree and are taking part in active research. Others 7 are pursuing for their PhD work. The faculty members are highly motivated such that they carry out this tremendous work of teaching and research work despite a shortfall in number. (vi) Main Weaknesses Number of faculty members in the department is 14, wich is very less for carrying on with a B.Tech courses with 92 students and two M.Tech courses with 24 students in each stream. From the very inception of the department in 1983 the faculty strength was not more than 9 till 2007. This has stranded the development of the department in terms of research activity and teaching quality. The department has serious problems in laboratory facility and space crunch. The department is housed in a three-storied building. The ground floor and first floor was made considering an intake of 30 students and the laboratories were designed accordingly. The second floor of the building is dedicated of the postgraduate students of two disciplines i.e. (i) Telecommunication and (ii) Microelectronics and VLSI. In the UG class the number of students has been increased to 60 from 30 in 2000 and gradually in steps to 92 in 2010. However the lab space has remained unchanged. The teachers and National Institute of Technology Durgapur Sub- component 1.2 20 technical staff are somehow managing the routine by working in shifts as the laboratory space is adequate only for 30 students. No. of students in the M.Tech class is also increasing so there is a crunch in space and instruments. The teachers and technical staff has to handle a large number of students which is degrading the standard of teaching as well as research. (vii) Opportunities Quality of faculty is good but less in number. Quality of students is also very good. If adequate number of teachers could be recruited and if sufficient space is provided then teachers and students could work in unison and produce worthy outputs. The M.Tech students are mostly GATE qualified and have the potential to do good work which could be fruitful to research Institute and to the industries. But due to lack of adequate faculty members the scope for extensive interaction between them and members of research Institutes as well as Industry is not possible. They require time off from their daily routine job to go for such interactions. There are adequate opportunities for such interactions process and have to be sustained if started. If given opportunity and sufficient time then the faculty members can bring laurels to the department, which in direct form can benefit the students. (viii) Threats If proper steps are not taken in time to provide facilities to the students, with respect to accommodation, departmental infrastructure and adequate number of teacher student ratio together with maintaining faculty standard it would not be possible to attract top student to join the institution. Interactions with industries have to be continued and cannot be sporadic. If due to lack of faculty and infrastructure, interactions are not prolonged, industries will lose interest in the institution and look for better options. 2. (i) Structure of the academic staff The academic staff comprises of Professors, Associate Professors, Assistant Professors and Technical Assistants. Presently the academic staff positions are as follows: Professors :02, Associate Professors: 05, Assistant Professors: 07, Technical Assistants: 02 Project Staff (SMDP-II): Faculty: 02, Lab Engineer: 02 (ii) Students: initial conditions, development and final conditions The students are selected through All India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE) after completing successfully the (10+2) course. The students go through eight semesters of theory and sessional courses over a span of four years. The odd semesters start in July and end in December and the even semester start in January and end in April. At the end of each semester examinations are held and grades are awarded. After completing successfully all the eight semesters B.Tech degree in the respective discipline is awarded with an accumulated average grade point. The students are also placed in different organizations through campus selection procedure and are also motivated to join research institutes as scientists. National Institute of Technology Durgapur Sub- component 1.2 21 3. Describe briefly the participation of faculty members/students in the proposal preparation. Some students (six from each year) from the final and pre-final years were picked up who were regular in attendance and they along with the faculty members and academic non-teaching staff were engaged in a one day informal seminar to discuss on some of the points. Students, faculty members and academic staff members voiced their deliberations and on the basis of the acceptance by the members present. 4. Describe the objectives and expected results of the Development Proposal link with SWOT analysis. It has been pointed out in the SWOT analysis that at present there are three main hurdles in the development process, which could be listed as follows: a) Large number of students sharing small resource b) Faculty number is not adequate so far as number of student intake is concerned c) Space for laboratory is very much inadequate. The space presently available for the Electronics and Communication Engineering department was meant for an intake of 30 students. However the intake has increased from 30 to 92 for B.Tech course but laboratory space and other facilities have not increased to cater to the needs of an increased number of students. This has led to severe resource crunch. The development proposal is aimed at providing the infrastructure to the B.Tech students so that they may learn the subject according to international standards. At the same time post-graduate activity (M.Tech courses) in (i) Telecommunication (ii) Microelectronics and VLSI should continue in the proper manner as well as the research activity in the department should improve. More number of research scholars should be inducted and they should get the proper guidance from their supervisors. For this to happen more number of faculty positions need to be created and existing ones should be filled up. The number of technical support staff should increase to provide to cater to the laboratory of the present intake. This will enable faculty members to have more interaction with the students on a regular basis. 5. Milestones to Evaluate Project Implementation Initially plans to be taken up are the following (a) Funds to be provided for the development of the infrastructure so that the labs can cater to the needs of 100 students as well as 50 M.Tech students together with the research scholars. (b) Simultaneously equipments are to be procured as per the existing needs. At present equipments, which are absolutely necessary and can be housed in the present infrastructure available are to be procured. Further augmentation could be done with the coming up of new housing for the expanded lab infrastructure. However these are absolutely necessary to train the students properly. (c) Existing vacant posts are to be filled up on a war footing. However the number is not adequate, if the institute has to excel in research and consultancy, more technical personnel and faculty members are to be in place so that such activities could be carried on without much of a hindrance. 6. Specific Objectives, such as, modernize and update of subjects, enhancing the scientific infrastructure, training academic staff, improving the physical space of the laboratories. To modernize and update the curriculum, funds are to be provided so that the lab set up could be changed according to the requirement. New laboratories for optical communication, mobile National Institute of Technology Durgapur Sub- component 1.2 22 communication, embedded systems, antennas and propagation and microwave circuit simulation lab could be made for training the students. Academic staff comprising of both faculty and technical assistants to be trained as per the requirement of present day technological development. 7. Provide the Action Plans for Improving employability of graduates The course needs to be modernized as per industry requirement. Students to be given in house training in industry during their UG so that they can have an actual feel of industrial conditions. This would improve employability. Increased learning outcomes of the students Applying theoretical knowledge in experimental works will certainly improve learning outcomes of the students. Incorporating more laboratory classes in the syllabus can do this. The students should be encouraged to undergo vocational training in a reputed industry/institute or in research laboratory in India and abroad in order to upgrade their sphere of knowledge. 8. Provide an action plan for improving the academic performance of SC/ST/OBC/academically weak students through innovative methods, such as, remedial and skill development classes for increasing the transition rate and pass rate with the objective of improving their employability. With adequate number of faculties if recruited, the schemes like extra preparatory classes, one-toone discussions and involving them in group projects would undertaken to improve academically weak students. Use of audio visual aids in teaching would be used to have greater impact in understanding of subjects in general. 9. Provide an action plan for strengthening of PG programs, if any and starting new PG Programs, if any. There are two PG programmes running in the department at present namely the M.Tech (Telecom) and M.Tech (Microelectronics and VLSI). The postgraduate teaching should mainly focus on nurturing innovative skills of the students by making them participate in mini projects. These can be highlighted by more involvement of students in laboratory and project works. Participation of PG students in funded projects of faculty members also can enhance their overall knowledge. The collaborative projects with research Institutes of India can also help the students have a more clear understanding of the respective disciplines. 10. Provide an action plan for scaling‐up enrollment into Master and Doctoral programme (Include measures to attract qualified students & maintain high quality standards) Master programme can be fine tuned to focus on offering various specializations like “microwave engineering” and “wireless communication” in the telecommunication engineering paradigm as there are a lot of shortage of manpower in these areas. A specialized course in Microelectronics and VLSI is already in progress since 2008. The full time research scholar intake must be increased. This will help departmental research output to proliferate. Periodic seminars and progress needs to be discussed among faculty members regarding results obtained by a research scholar. 11. Provide an action plan for improving interaction with industry. The first step towards reaching out to industry is to approach the alumni who are already serving various core industries. Conferences, seminars at regular intervals need to be conducted where National Institute of Technology Durgapur Sub- component 1.2 23 industry participation as invited speakers may be sought. For this as a first step government sponsored industries like Bharat electronics Limited (BEL) and research centers like Central Electronics Engineering Research Institute may be approached for MOU. 12. Provide an action plan for : (i) Quantitatively increasing and qualitatively improving research by faculty individually, jointly and collaboratively. The initial seed money of 5 to 10 Lakhs may be provided to new faculties who are possessing PhD for initial research boost. Institutional in house seminar series may be conducted for motivating all faculties to write proposals for research funding. Workload directly affects the qualitative aspect and quantitative development in research by faculty members. So to improve this the foremost point that is to be satisfied is increasing the faculty strength in conjunction with the number of students enrolled. (ii) Developing research interest among Under Graduate students UG students need to be involved in research performed by faculty members. The project handled may include a blend of hardware and simulation so as to motivate them. In ECE department UG students can be given projects, which they need to do if they opt for scientist job at DRDO and ISRO. (iii) Collaborating with Indian and foreign institutions in academic and research area through MOUs MOUs with Indian and foreign Institutions need to be explored so that UG and PG students can have exposure to advanced laboratories. Faculty members may explore the initial talks and collaboration scopes whenever they visit other institutes within India or abroad. Faculty members may spend time in research collaboration with Indian research institutes during vacations. Faculty member may apply for postdoctoral programmes in Institutions of repute outside India. 13. Describe the relevance and coherence of development proposal with State’s/National industrial / economic development plan. The development proposal has direct relevance to motivating UG and PG students of our department to serve national research establishments by engaging them in similar research domains during course of study. This automatically will be fruitful in economic development of our country.

National Institute of Technology Durgapur Sub- component 1.2 34 DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS 1. Give the details of SWOT analysis carried out. (ix) Main Strengths The department of physics has very well qualified faculty members. The department has active groups of research workers who are engaged in research in different fields like Materials Science, Nanoscience & Technology, and Low temperature characterization, Thin Film Technology, Lasers, Liquid Crystals, Electronics and Theoretical High Energy Physics. The claim on these qualities of the faculty can be substantiated by a large number of their publications in journals of international repute. Our faculty members have published around 15 research papers in peer-viewed international & national Journals, and 12 papers in conferences during 2008-09, and around 31 research papers in peer-viewed international & national Journals, and 18 papers in conferences during 2009-10. The faculty members have also been invited abroad including countries like France, Germany, Japan, USA, UK, Switzerland and Taiwan either for presenting papers in international conferences or on post doctoral assignments. Our faculty members are continuing their collaborative research work with reputed institutions in abroad as well as in India. Our faculty members regularly supervise the Ph.D. candidates and already a good numbers of students have completed their Ph. D Degree. A good number of projects funded by DST and MHRD are continuing by our faculty members. Our faculty members are continuously taking for B. Tech. M. Tech. and M. Sc. Classes. We are taking many papers in B. Tech. like Engineering physics, Engineering thermodynamics, Nuclear reactor technology, Strong materials & composite, Liquid crystals & applications, Thin film technology, Electrical engineering materials, Semiconductor physics, Electromagnetic field theory etc. M. Tech. Projects of the department are very high standards leading to publish in International Conferences and Journals. A very good friendly environment is established in our department by our faculty members. Our faculty members are motivating our students for higher studies. (x) Main Weaknesses The main weakness of our department is the inadequate experimental facilities (e.g. instruments like TEM, AFM, Raman Spectrometer, DTA-TGA, SQUID magnetometer etc.) for doing more advanced research. There are no sufficient laboratory facilities for M. Tech and M. Sc. Students in our department. Departmental library is not properly developed. We are not getting quality students for our M. Tech. and M. Sc. Courses. We are not getting access of full text Journals. According to the view of our department M. Tech. and M. Sc. students the computer facility is not adequate for them. At least 30 computers required for our students in the computer laboratory. There is no sufficient space for faculty members and laboratories which is very essential. Laboratory equipments should be improved. More number of special papers should be included in our M. Sc. Syllabus. These are the weakness of our department and we believe that it can be totally removed if the required facilities are made available to us. (xi) Opportunities Present state of affairs which has wide scope of improvement will be capable to spread the technical knowledge to the students of engineering institutions, local industry personnel by imparting training by arranging seminar, summer/ winter schools and workshops . As the departmental faculty are theoretically and technically well-equipped, their expertise will be best utilized for the service in imparting higher training and education which will eventually help the growth of the nation as a whole. This great opportunity lying ahead can be easily utilized if the materials science laboratory is provided with experimental facilities sought in this proposal. All these opportunities are visualized in addition to the National Institute of Technology Durgapur Sub- component 1.2 35 advancement of learning through the frontline research. We have opportunities to open new PG course like M. Tech in Nanoscience & Technology and B. Tech. in Applied Physics in our department. (xii) Threats As the scientific world is advancing at a global rate, the progress of research and consequent development will be lying behind if the experimental facilities are not provided. This will not only affect the advancement of learning but also the development of industry. Therefore, in the modern scenario of globalization we have to perform and show our capability and prove our skill and otherwise we have to perish in the march for national advancement and development. In the view of our M. Tech. and M. Sc. Students there is lack of hostel facility and lack of placement facility for them. Admission fees should be less from their present value. The department has to stand out in the global competition as the country will globalize itself even in the education sector. Reputed foreign universities may set up their campus in the country with state-of-art facility. So unless we improve ourselves in training and research adequately we may loose our position as a leading department of a premier university. 2. (i) Structure of the academic staff: Professor, Assistant Professor, Lecturer, Technical Assistant, Skilled Staff, and Office peon. (ii) Students: initial conditions, development and final conditions (a) M. Tech. students: Initial Conditions: M. Sc., B. E./B. Tech. Final Conditions: Oriented for research work pursuing Ph. D.

National Institute of Technology Durgapur Sub- component 1.2 42 DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS 1. Give the details of SWOT analysis carried out. (xiii) Main Strengths The Department of Mathematics has very well qualified faculty members. The Department has active groups of research workers who are engaged in research in different fields like Operations Research, Computational Graph Theory, Fuzzy Mathematics, Information & Coding Theory, Statistical Analysis, Finite Field Theory, Design Theory, Functional Analysis, Uncertainty Theory, Plasma Physics, Nonlinear Dynamics, Geodesy & Geophysics. The claim on these qualities of the faculty can be substantiated by a large number of their publications in journals of national and international repute. Our faculty members have published around 22 research papers in peer-viewed international & national Journals and 26 papers in conferences during 2008-10,. The faculty members have also been invited abroad like China, Italy for collaborative research. Our faculty members are also continuing their collaborative research work with reputed institutions in India. Our faculty members regularly supervise Ph.D. students and some them are going to complete their Ph.D work. They are continuously taking B. Tech. and M. Tech. Classes. We are taking many papers in B. Tech. like Engineering Mathematics, Operations Research, Discrete Mathematics, Probability, Statistics & stochastic process etc. M.Tech. Projects of the department are very high standards leading to publications in International Conferences and Journals. Our faculty members and Research Scholars are motivating our students for higher studies. There is a very good friendly environment among the faculty members and research scholars of our department. The Department is progressing academically and trying to establish it as one of the leading Departments of our institute. (xiv) Main Weaknesses The main weakness of the department is the inadequate experimental facilities for doing more advanced research. There are not sufficient laboratory facilities for M. Tech students in our Department. Departmental library is not properly developed. We are not getting quality students for our M. Tech. Course. We are not getting access of full text Journals. According to the view M. Tech students of our Department the computer facility is not adequate for them. At least 20 more computers including 2-3 high speed computers are required for our students in the computer laboratory. Software like SPSS, DISCRETA, GAP,MATHEMATICA etc are also required. There is no sufficient space for faculty members and laboratories which is very essential. More number of special papers should be included in our M. Sc and M tech syllabus. These are the weakness of our Department and we believe that it can be totally removed if the required facilities are made available to us. Opportunities The faculty members of the department are highly qualified , capable and engaged in research. This expertise may be utilized in arranging Seminars , Workshops, Summer/Winter schools , Conferences etc for the training and development of the faculties of engineering institutions or executives of local industries which will eventually help the growth of the nation as a whole. The M Tech(OR) program of the department can undoubtedly be considered beneficial for the local industry personnel . Industry related problems have been solved during M. Tech projects . National Institute of Technology Durgapur Sub- component 1.2 43 The M.Sc(Mathematics with Computer Applications) which is going to start from the session 2010-11 may be restructured as 5 year integrated MSc programme . A new integrated MSc,PhD programme may also be started ( keeping in mind the case of post graduate students with good academic background). The department seeks the opportunity to increase the research facility of the department . (xv) Threats As the scientific world is advancing at a global rate , more and more stress has to be given on development of basic sciences because science and technology must have a good bonding , otherwise progress will be in threat . In the view of our M. Tech. students there is lack of hostel facility and lack of placement facility for them. Admission fees should be less from their present value. The department has to stand out in the global competition as the country will globalize itself even in the education sector. Reputed foreign universities may set up their campus in the country with state-of-art facilities. So unless we improve ourselves in training and research adequately, we may loose our position as a leading Department of a premier university. To put greater emphasis on research and teaching and also for expansion of the Department Lack of supporting staff is a threat . For the vision of the department to be true , the limited resources of the department must expand . 2.
