Abstract

The objective of the study is to examine the students’ perspective (age wise, gender wise and year wise) of parameters affecting the undergraduate engineering education system present in a private technical institution in NCR, Haryana. It is a descriptive type of research in nature. The data has been collected with the help of a structured questionnaire based on the Likert scale. The sample size for the study is 500. The sample has been taken on the random (Probability) basis and the questionnaire was filled by the students (pursuing B.Tech) chosen on the random basis from a private technical educational institution in NCR, Haryana. For data analysis and conclusion of the results of the survey, statistical tool like T test was performed with the help of high quality software; SPSS. To conclude t test revealed statistically no difference between the mean number of two groups (age wise) for the parameters “Selection”, “Academic Excellence” and “Management and Administration”. t test revealed statistically no difference between the mean number of two groups (gender wise) for the parameters “Selection”, “Academic Excellence”, Infrastructure”, “Personality Development and Industry Exposure”, “Placements” and “Management and Administration”. t test revealed statistically no difference between the mean number of two groups (year wise) for the parameters “Selection”, “Academic Excellence”, “Personality Development and Industry Exposure”, “Placements” and “Management and Administration”. While t test revealed a statistically reliable difference between the mean number of two groups (age wise) for the parameters “Infrastructure”, “Personality Development and Industry Exposure” and “Placements”. t test revealed a statistically reliable difference between the mean number of two groups (year wise) for the parameter “Infrastructure”.
