TEZPUR: A three-member team headed by Chairman Dr RP Maheshwari, Department of Electrical Engineering, IIT Roorkee, along with Dr N Sudhakar Reddy, Principal, SVCE, Tirupati, and Prof Mainuddin, Head, Department of Electronics & Communication Engineering, Jamia Millia Islamia, visited Tezpur University to assess the extension of National Board of Accreditation (NBA) accreditation for five BTech programmes offered by the University.

The NBA was initially established by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) under Section 10 (u) of the AICTE Act in 1994, to assess the qualitative competence of programmes offered by educational institutions — from diploma to postgraduate level — in engineering and technology, management, pharmacy, architecture, and related disciplines approved by AICTE.

For BTech programmes, NBA accreditation signifies quality assurance, outcome-based education, and recognition. NBA-accredited programmes are acknowledged by the Government of India and international bodies under the Washington Accord, enabling global mobility for higher studies and employment.

Prof Shambhu Nath Singh, Vice-Chancellor of Tezpur University, expressed hope that the five BTech programmes — Civil Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering, Food Engineering and Technology, and Mechanical Engineering — would secure the NBA ‘quality seal.’

Prof Sankar Chandra Deka, Dean, School of Engineering, gave a detailed briefing to the visiting team.
