Jai Shriram Engineering College (JSREC) in Tiruppur, Tamil Nadu, employs over 100 dedicated faculty members across engineering, sciences, humanities, and management departments. The institution maintains high academic standards with a mix of PhD holders and experienced master's-qualified educators, supporting its Anna University affiliation.
JSREC has 1 Principal, 7 Professors, 5 Associate Professors, 86 Assistant Professors, and 14 other faculty, totaling around 113-121 as per recent data. This supports 907 enrolled students, yielding a favorable student-faculty ratio of approximately 1:7.5, better than many Tier-2 colleges, enabling personalized mentoring.
Faculty distribution emphasizes core engineering: Mechanical (15+), ECE (20+), CSE (10+), Civil (12+), EEE (10+), plus emerging AI&DS, Fashion Tech, S&H (20+), and MBA (6).
Around 20-25% hold PhDs (e.g., Principal Dr. R. Thirumalai, department heads), 70-75% have M.E./M.Tech/M.Phil/MBA/MCA, and some feature UGC-NET/CSIR-NET/SLET. Qualifications align with AICTE/Anna University norms, with many pursuing PhDs part-time. Examples: Dr. P. Alaguraj (PhD, Civil), Dr. N. Lakshmipriya (PhD, EEE).
Many faculty bring 5-15+ years of industry exposure before academia, particularly in Mechanical (TVS, hydraulics), ECE/EEE (electronics firms), and IT (software). LinkedIn profiles show transitions like Nirmal Raj (10+ years lecturing post-industry). TPC integration aids practical training.
At 1:7-8 (121 faculty for ~900 students), it exceeds UGC's 1:20 benchmark, fostering interactive learning. Department-wise: CSE/IT ~1:12, core branches 1:6-8, S&H 1:5.
Faculty employ outcome-based education (OBE) with PPTs, flipped classrooms, MOOCs (NPTEL), project-based learning, and industry simulations. Tools include MATLAB, ANSYS for labs; guest lectures, webinars, and hackathons enhance skills. Student reviews rate faculty 4/5 for approachability and expertise.
Below is a sample from the official 50+ faculty list (partial; full PDF available online), focusing on leaders and departments.
Faculty engage in research (20+ publications/year), funded projects, and FDPs; many guide UG/PG projects leading to patents. Student feedback highlights supportive PhD mentors in placements/internships.
