-  * We do not have a proper student management system for the Faculty. PEFAA was instrumental in purchasing a software by paying annually 1000 USD as a pilot project using funds provided by the  Alumni in Australia. However it is found that ready made software is not capable of handling the stringent and also ad-hoc requirement of the Faculty. So the only option is to develop such a system. For that we need to pay for a computer programmer may be for one year. The cost would be about Rs. 1.2 million +  * The Faculty do not have a proper student management system for the Faculty.

-====Building a Lecture Recording System==== + 
-  *With the advanced digital technology, the function of a class room lectures is being changed drastically. Instead of traditional teacher centered learning, flipped class room model is being promoted. Now the lectures can pre-record lectures and students study at their phase, lecturers can guide them. The classes will be used more to discuss problems. For that we need to subscribe to a lecture recording service. At present Director, EEU has requested such services to send their quotations. We will update the costs as soon as we receive them. Please contact PEFAA if you are interested to support this project.  +====Installing Lecture Recording Systems====

    *PEFAA is spending about 500,000 each year (some times more) for Faculty activities. If we can have a Fixed Deposit to get that from the interest, then it is not necessary to raise funds for PEFAA regularly through fundraising activities. Out of this 500,000, we provide about 100,000 for students to participate for foreign competitions (Sports, RoboCon) or local events (Spaghetti bridge competition, Career fair etc). We may increase that share too.    *PEFAA is spending about 500,000 each year (some times more) for Faculty activities.
