Quality Manual

Introduction:

At Mahalakshmi Tech Campus, our commitment to excellence is reflected in our focus on Quality Sustenance and Quality Enhancement. These principles guide our efforts to ensure the highest standards in education. We recognize the importance of accreditation and assessment bodies like NAAC (National Assessment and Accreditation Council) and NBA (National Board of Accreditation) in maintaining and improving educational quality.

To align with these standards, we have established the Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC), dedicated to the continuous improvement of our services, processes, and resources. The IQAC is tasked with designing, monitoring, and assessing quality parameters within our academic functions, ensuring effective conformance to stakeholder requirements.

The IQAC’s role encompasses reviewing and developing a system of ongoing, conscious, and catalytic action aimed at enhancing the teaching-learning process, refining evaluation procedures, and elevating the quality of both students and faculty. Regular internal audits are conducted by the IQAC to drive continuous improvement across the institute.
