The frameworks a engineering college answers to
NBA
SAR under GAPC v4.0 — 10 criteria, 1,000 marks, 11 Programme Outcomes. Criterion 3 (COs and POs) carries 175 marks for Tier I and 120 for Tier II.
NAAC
SSR and AQAR across the Binary framework’s 10 attributes, from the same faculty, student and outcome data your SARs use.
NIRF Engineering
The largest NIRF category. Teaching, Learning & Resources and Research & Professional Practice carry 30% each — with retraction penalties since 2025.
ABET
The eight EAC criteria and the seven student outcomes, assessed from the same CO-PO attainment that drives your NBA SAR. ABET module →
Washington Accord
NBA Tier I programmes carry Washington Accord standing. Master Data Map keeps Tier I evidence complete so that standing holds at every visit.
AISHE & NEP 2020
AISHE figures that match NAAC and NIRF, and NEP 2020 credit structure, ABC and APAAR tracked on the same record. NEP 2020 checklist →
The same data, asked for more than once
Each row is one set of facts your college already reports — in more than one place. In Master Data Map it is entered once.
| Data | NBA | NAAC | NIRF Engineering |
|---|---|---|---|
| Faculty, cadre & qualifications | Criterion 5 — 200 marks | Faculty Resources | TLR — faculty ratio, PhD & experience |
| CO-PO attainment | Criterion 3 — 175 (Tier I) / 120 (Tier II) | Learning & Teaching | — |
| Research, citations & patents | Criterion 5 | Research & Innovation Outcomes | RP — publications, quality, IPR |
| Placement & higher studies | Criterion 4 | Student Outcomes | GO — graduation outcomes |
| Action taken on attainment gaps | Criterion 7 | — | — |

Frequently asked questions
Does Master Data Map generate the NBA SAR?
Yes. Master Data Map computes SAR marks criterion by criterion under GAPC v4.0 from the institutional record, with the OBE module calculating CO-PO attainment for Criterion 3, and generates the SAR for Tier I and Tier II programmes.
How much of NBA and NAAC data overlaps?
Around 68 percent: faculty, students, curriculum and outcomes, research and infrastructure. In Master Data Map each of those is entered once and reused for NBA, NAAC and NIRF.
Can individual faculty start with CO-PO?
Yes. CO-PO Pro gives individual faculty CO-PO mapping and attainment for their own subjects at ₹2,499 + GST per subject, or ₹4,999 + GST for up to six subjects.
Can Master Data Map support ABET alongside NBA?
Yes. NBA and ABET both run on outcome-based education, so the CO-PO attainment Master Data Map computes for the NBA SAR also feeds ABET’s seven student outcomes and continuous-improvement evidence. One outcomes record serves both. ABET guide.
