PURPOSE OF THE BOOK

Education has to be placed and organized in an effective manner, both from the institutions’ side as well as the
students’. This would help to achieve things with great clarity and commitment.

Aurora is the first in the country to give a comprehensive student handbook which forms a major aid for the students
to prepare for the classes in advance, know the details of various deadlines, details of the syllabus, co-and extra

that the student will have an advanced view of all the academic schedules to be implemented in the course of the
semester.

The handbook seeks to inform the student about the rules and regulations of the college, in order that they may
conduct themselves in an appropriate manner. In addition, the handbook makes the student aware of the history of
the college, and the culture and values that it upholds.

The publication of this student handbook was taken up to help students chalk out a systematic plan of study and

challenge and completed it in time with high sense of commitment.

1. HISTORY

1.1 THE BEGINNING


It was in 1989 that Ramesh Nimmatoori, a young post-graduate in Computer Science and Engineering, dared to
dream. He made a humble but determined beginning with Aurora Degree College, set up under the aegis of the
Aurora Educational Society. The college had four departments, namely mathematics, computer science, statistics,
and electronics, with 62 students. They were housed in a rented premises in the then suburban locality of
Habsiguda. The college was later shifted to Gandhinagar, but by December 1992, the college moved to its
current location at Chikkadpally, a bustling area in the heart of the city.

1.2 THE LEAP


In 1993, two new departments were added -- Biological Sciences and Commerce. The student strength rose to
600 that year. From then on, there was no looking back and by 1998, the Degree College had more than 2000
students enrolled in various branches of study, and is now rated among the top 20 degree colleges in the
country. In 1995, the Aurora Educational Society established a postgraduate college which offered two
programmes, namely, Master of Computer Applications and Master of Business Administration. In 1998,
Aurora touched new heights when it established its engineering college on a sprawling 600 acre campus. It
was a bold venture in the area of higher education. Not long after, four more engineering colleges came up,
followed closely by two postgraduate colleges. Today, Aurora happens to be one of the largest educational
groups in the state of Andhra Pradesh, with 17000 students on its rolls, more than 1400 faculty and around 500
administrative staff.

1.3 THE NAME AND LOGO


Aurora – the name for the college derives from aurora borealis, the celestial northern lights. It also has
association with the Sun God Apollo and the Roman Goddess of Dawn, Aurora. The name symbolises the
fusion of Indian and Western traditions of representing the Sun as a symbol of knowledge and power.
Education is a penance for knowledge and Aurora treats it thus. The logo has three critical components -- the
Italian colours – lilac and wild pink; the Egyptian pyramid signifying the letter A, and most importantly, the logo
being emblematic of the spirit of the college – i.e. the temple of learning.

1.4 THE ICON AND HERITAGE


Aurora is inspired by the great Indian Teacher Chanakya, who redefined the role of a teacher as being that of
a torchbearer of society. He gave the clarion call “Tasmat Uttishta Bharata” – Oh Indian, Awake! Seeking
inspiration from this great Indian, Aurora imparts man-making education which is firmly rooted in India’s rich
tradition, with our focus clearly on modern science & technology.

1.5 THE TRADITIONS


Aurora is known for establishing unique traditions in every aspect of its functioning. Be it pedagogical
practices, advertising strategies, discipline, extra curricular activities and events, Aurora is in the forefront.
Today, it is no exaggeration that people across the country believe that Aurora is a trendsetter.

1.6 THE CULTURE


Aurora nurtures a knowledge culture. It facilitates in tapping the latent potential of both the students and the
staff. Aurora’s students and faculty command a distinct recognition among their peers and counterparts. It is
this unique culture which has become the hallmark of Aurora.

1.7 THE VISION

2. THE COLLEGE

2.1 INTRODUCTION
The College is located at Ramanthapur, 10 km from the Secunderabad Railway Station. The college offers
postgraduate courses in Management and Computer Applications (MBA & MCA).

Aurora prepares not just students with PG degrees in their hands, but people with a rounded personality.
It is for this reason that Aurora has become a brand to be trusted among students looking for quality
education.

2.2 THE GOAL


In seeking to fulfill its comprehensive mission, Aurora pursues three principal institutional goals: effective
teaching, meaningful research, and service to society. Contribution towards the realization of these
goals essentially constitutes the standard by which members of the academic staff are evaluated.

2.2.1 RESEARCH
The college acknowledges that the preservation and expansion of knowledge through scholarly
enquiry are functions that distinguish institutions of higher learning. The institution believes that
scholarly enquiry promotes effective teaching, besides being a service to society. Aurora, therefore,
seeks to preserve knowledge in its archives and libraries; employs teaching faculty holding research
degrees awarded by reputed institutions of advanced education; honours those who achieve
distinction as scholars; maintains laboratories, research centers, and numerous administrative
entities that function to promote the expansion of knowledge.

2.2.2 TEACHING
Aurora is committed to the transmission of knowledge. The Institution’s primary responsibility is
to its student clientele, and, in this regard, effective classroom teaching is Aurora’s most pervasive
medium for the dissemination of the results of its faculty’s scholarly endeavors. The central
concern of the Institution is, therefore, excellence in those instructional activities that provide
students with opportunities for a comprehensive education and a specialized professional training.
The Institution assigns substantial weight to teaching in its process of faculty evaluation,
recognizing that excellence requires not only knowledge on the part of a teacher but a continuing
quest for knowledge, a constant review of curricula and modern teaching methods, flexibility and
creativity in the classroom, and an unceasing effort to individualize instruction. Towards this end,
Aurora seeks to measure the quality of instruction through both student and peer evaluation, and
regularly subject its academic programs to external review by accrediting agencies.

2.2.3 TRAINING
Aurora is an educational institution striving to utilize the services of its highly motivated team of
people, whose collective expertise encompasses virtually every field of human endeavor for the
benefit of the community. Aurora reaches out to serve society by training young men and women
not only in their respective areas of specializations but also in all aspects of human development.

but also shows the applicational skills of the candidate. Needless to say that the project report submitted
by the student would be referred to a group of experts for assessment. The serious involvement of staff
members in the student’s project work will go a long way in increasing their rapport with the students and
the department also benefits by way of infrastructure and development.

11.2 NEW TEACHING METHODOLOGY (INTERACTIVE LEARNING)


The interactive learning methodology was introduced in the academic year 2004-05. After observing the
workings of the new methodology on a pilot basis during the last four years and the benefits it yielded, it was
felt necessary to implement the concept more rigorously in order to derive maximum advantage of this concept.
It aims at giving the students experience in the practical implementation of theoretical concepts and stimulates
their interest in changing technologies.

11.2.1 LEARNING GROUPS


An innovative concept of learning groups has been introduced to make learning truly interactive
and creative. The students in each class are facilitated to form learning groups of three each. Each
learning group is named after a scientist. It is mandatory for the students to know the contributions
of the scientist after whom the group is named. The group is also expected to submit a profile of the
scientist to the organizer. The idea behind learning groups is to enhance interaction and teamwork
among the students. Separate learning groups are formed for various activities. Each learning
group is guided by a faculty organizer and is ranked based on performance.

11.2.2 GUEST LECTURES


In addition to the curriculum designed by the university, the students need to be exposed to the
latest developments in the field. In view of this, the college invites experts from the industry and
centres of higher learning for giving lectures on topics of current interest. Guest lectures inculcate
rich insights and inspire students to identify the thrust areas for individual and collective excellence.
They go a long way in providing a thorough understanding of concepts, new application areas and
developments which a student may not get exposed to otherwise.

11.2.3 STUDENT ASSIGNMENTS


The submission of assignments is mandatory for all the learning groups. The learning group is
given a set of assignments normally from the question bank on each subject. The handbook provides

19
a question bank for each unit (minimum of 30 questions) with questions drawn from the Osmania
University Examinations. These assignments will enable the students to prepare well for the final
examinations. Each learning group has to submit 5 assignments in all from every subject.

11.2.4 STUDENT SEMINARS


The faculty and all the students are conscious of the importance of student seminars, which form
an important aspect of the new teaching methodology. The seminars are meant to instill confidence
in students and to motivate them constantly to improve both their domain knowledge and
communicative competence. The student seminars have been introduced to hone presentation
skills of the students in order to give them the confidence to aspire for better career opportunities.
11.2.5 INDUSTRY-INSTITUTE INTERACTION
A continuous and healthy interaction with industries is essential for any post graduate college to
retain its dynamism. This will go a long way in upgrading the skills of the staff and the students.
With this objective, Aurora’s P.G. College is on the verge of signing MOUs with industries. This
is an important step in identifying the common working areas for mutual benefit.

11.2.6 MINI PROJECTS


The goal of the mini projects is to get the student to explore research and development initiatives
in a specific area. The mini projects commence in summer. The projects are undertaken in an
industry or research lab or other academic institutions, as decided by the project advisor. It may,
in some cases, result in a student continuing the work for the final project also, with the concurrence
of the department.

11.2.7 INDUSTRIAL / EDUCATIONAL TOURS


It is important for students of technical education to keep themselves abreast of changes taking
place in the industry. Towards this end, the college regularly organizes industrial tours. Every
semester, students are expected to visit at least one industry or company, either Indian or
multinational. They must prepare in advance a detailed note on the industry to be visited. Information
could be collected from the website of the company or any other source. The students, guided by
the faculty, shall conduct a survey/interview of the people and the place visited and then prepare
a detailed report of the tour for a class presentation.

11.2.8 ADJUNCT COURSES


The adjunct instructor integrates academic content from the lecture with study strategies/ techniques
in order to improve problem-solving skills. Every year during the intervening period of I & II
semesters, each department conducts at least one adjunct course in the areas not covered by the
university curriculum. A minimum of three adjunct courses are to be conducted based on the
response, availability of resource persons and the necessary inputs for conducting the courses.

11.2.9 STUDENT COUNSELLING


For the creation of a healthy academic atmosphere in the college, interaction between the students
and the staff is essential. Staff members are required to counsel the students for academic and
cocurricular activities. Students are also free to discuss personal problems that affect their work
and day-to-day functioning with the staff and seek their counsel.
11.2.10 ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
Aurora is proud to have its students in key positions at several prestigious organizations in India and
abroad. This gives importance to the activities of the Alumni Association. The Association helps its

20
members and also the students currently studying in the College in various activities.

11.2.11 IT MEETS
The students of the college organise an IT Meet entitled ‘Abhyasa’every year inviting participation and
delegations from different colleges. It has various competitive events like programming contest, IT Quiz,
Brain Compiler etc., to stimulate interactive learning.

11.3 GUIDELINES FOR FINAL YEAR PROJECT WORK


The final year project work reflects the knowledge acquired by the students during the course of their study.
The project, an essential ingredient of the PG programme, draws upon the theoretical knowledge and applicational
skills of the student. Needless to say that the project developed by the student would be evaluated by experts

to assess the skills of the candidate. Students are advised to follow meticulously the guidelines given. The
serious involvement of staff members in the projects will go a long way in increasing their rapport with the
students. The department also reaps benefits in terms of infrastructure and development.
