PROJECT National Policy: The TEQIP Project has been implemented in pursuance of

the National Policy on Education (NPE‐1986 revised in 1992) through MHRD of the Government of India as a Centrally Sponsored Scheme to improve the overall quality of existing Engineering Education.

Phases:TEQIP was envisaged in 2003 as a long‐term Programme of about 10‐12 years duration to be implemented in 3 phases for transformation of the Technical Education System. As per TEQIP concept and design, each phase is required to be designed on the basis of lessons learnt from implementation of an earlier phase.
