The Institute targets on Outcome Based Education (OBE) in all programmes and courses with clearly defined learning objectives and outcomes to align with the vision and mission of the college. The Institute follows the curriculum prescribed by Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU). Academic Calendar of the Institute is prepared in compliance with the academic schedule of VTU. Academic Calendar of the Department is prepared in line with the Institute’s academic calendar which includes various events like Value Added Courses, Expert Lectures, Workshops, Seminars, Symposiums, Conferences, Industrial Visits and other Technical, Club and Cultural events. Various activities to support gender sensitization, environment issues, human values and professional ethics are organized to enhance the individual talents and ensure holistic development of the students. The Institute follows Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) as prescribed by VTU. Apart from syllabus coverage, in every subject some portions beyond the prescribed syllabus are covered. The students are encouraged to choose inter-disciplinary, intra-disciplinary courses that are offered as elective courses. The curricular gaps are identified and certificate/add-on/value added courses are conducted to complement student’s knowledge and skills in their field of study. The main objective is to equip the students in current technologies and also to reduce the gap between academia and industry.

The Institute improves the soft-skills of the students by imparting blended training through SJCIT Corporate Placements and Industrial Relations Cell (SCP&IRC). The students strengthen their knowledge and skills through training, internships, projects and industrial visits. Faculty members are encouraged to participate in refresher courses, faculty development programmes and workshops to keep themselves updated. Regularly, feedback is taken from all the stakeholders and actions are executed to implement all the suggestions for continuous improvement. To assess the effectiveness of Curricular implementation plan, the IQAC of SJCIT reviews the academic preparation, orientation of faculty towards the subject, understanding of the curriculum requirements, teaching practices adopted by the faculty for each subject, previous appraisal and percentage results obtained etc., Based on this, specific aspects of the action plan to be contemplated are revisited. Courses on Ethics & Values and Environmental Studies are part of core courses. In the last 5 years, 37 value-added courses were offered and roughly around 20% of students have benefitted. It is visible from the data provided that around 70% of students are actively participating in curriculum enrichment activities. Thus, the institute ensures the effective implementation of curricular aspects through administrative groups consisting of HoDs, Course Coordinators, Class Teachers and Time Table Officers.
