Anti- Ragging Cell

Ragging of student (s), in any form, inside or outside the college campus or hostels is strictly prohibited. Ragging is a nasty crime and invites for immediate serious action. Ragging is a serious criminal and non-bailable offence. Hon’ble Supreme Court of India has directed to take stern measures to prohibit, prevent and eliminate ragging.

Ragging includes,

Any conduct of a student or students ,whether by words spoken or written or by an act which has the effect of teasing, treating or handling with rudeness a fresher or any other student.

Indulging in rowdy or undisciplined activities by any student or students which causes or is likely to cause annoyance, hardship or psychological harm or to raise fear or apprehension thereof in any fresher or any other student.

asking any student to do any act which such student will not in the ordinary course do and which has the effect of causing or generating a sense of shame, or torment or embarrassment so as to adversely affect the physique or psyche of such fresher or any other student, with or without an intent to derive a sadistic pleasure or showing off power, authority or superiority by a student over any fresher or any other student.

A special anti-ragging cell under the overall charge of Dr. Arvind Sharma, Coordinator, anti-ragging cell (Mobile No: 93161-54500) is in operation. The cell takes all possible measures to check ragging. Strict action is immediately taken, if any case of ragging is reported. Students are also advised to inform any faculty member, if they notice any ragging incident.

Women’s Grievance Committee

The College has constituted an all women Committee for redressal of grievances of girl students. The Committee consists of three members: two drawn from the lady faculty members and another, a Police Officer to be nominated by the local SSP.

Checking Drug Abuse

It has been noticed that the drug abuse is spreading amongst the youth of the region. Therefore, the college makes special efforts to check the menace. The discipline committee members are specifically instructed to keep watch on the students so that they keep away from such activities.

Philosophy

CEM will achieve its mission through optimum utilization of its financial and intellectual resource base by reacting positively to its diverse student community in a professional environment involving both faculty and staff.

The Quality Emphasis

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) created the Quality Management System (QMS) standards in 1987. They were the ISO 9000:1987 series of standards The last major revision was in the year 2008 and the series was called ISO 9000:2000 series. The ISO 9002 and 9003 standards were integrated into one single certifiable standard: ISO 9001:2008. After December 2003, organizations holding ISO 9002 or 9003 standards had to complete a transition to the new standard.

The Quality Management System standards created by ISO are meant to certify the processes and the system of an organization, not the product or service any improvement (change) takes time to implement, gain acceptance and stabilize as accepted practice. Improvement must allow pauses between implementing new changes so that the change is stabilized and assessed as a real improvement, before the next improvement is made (hence continual improvement, not continuous improvement).

Simple one is Process Approach, which forms the basis of ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System standards, duly driven from the 'Eight principles of Quality management', process approach being one of them. Thareja [7] writes about the mechanism and benefits: "The process (proficiency) may be limited in words, but not in its applicability. While it fulfills the criteria of all-round gains: in terms of the competencies augmented by the participants; the organization seeks newer directions to the business success, the individual brand image of both the people and the organization, in turn, goes up. CEM is in process to be NBA accredited in the near future and working towards to achieve its compliance.

Training & Placement

The Training & Placement Office at CEM, Kapurthala facilitates the process of placement of students passing out from the Institute besides collaborating with leading organizations and institutes in setting up of internship and training program of students.

The office liaises with various industrial establishments, corporate houses etc which conduct campus interviews and select graduate students from all disciplines. The Training & Placement Office provides the infra-structural facilities to conduct group discussions, tests and interviews besides catering to other logistics. The Office interacts with many industries in the country, of which nearly 200 companies visit the campus for holding campus interviews. The industries which approach the institute come under the purview of:

• Core engineering industries

R & D laboratories

The placement season runs through the course of the year commencing the last week of July through to March. Pre-Placement Talks are also conducted in this regard as per mutual convenience. Job offers, dates of interviews, selection of candidates etc. are announced through the Training & Placement Office.

The Placement Office is assisted by a committee comprising representatives of students from the engineering streams. The committee evolves a broad policy framework every year besides a set of rules which are inviolable. Student’s members are closely co-opted in implementing these policy decisions.

Faculty

Dedicated, devoted and experienced faculty in CEM makes the learning experience enjoyable and very fruitful. Headed by an academician having over 40 years of experience, our faculty never loses its way around the corridors of education, knowledge and discipline. The faculty in the Institute is highly qualified, experienced and dedicated. Quite a good number of them hold a Ph.D. degree and most of the other faculty members are M.Tech. or pursing Ph. D.

The noble but laborious cause of molding future of the students into bright alley of progress and prosperity keeps every teacher up on his or her feet, just like their students. After all, hard work and discipline is not only the concern of a student, the faculty fully comprehends their role in shaping the students’ career. The teachers’ commitment boosts the student’s enthusiasm enabling them to exploit their potential and energy so as to face the competitive world.

Maintaining excellent staff and having continual staff development CEM places primary emphasis on teaching excellence. CEM will have the right teaching staff in terms of numbers, skills, training and experience. Staff development at CEM will be given due importance.
