Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective?

The share of programs that are accredited or awaiting accreditation is 63 against a target of 55 and the percentage of institutions with academic autonomy is 68.5% against a target of 70%..The percentage of faculty with at least an MTech is 91% against a target of 88% and the number of master and PhD. students enrolled is 46,160 (academic year 2014-15) against a target of 41,000. Other data for the 2015-16 academic year will only be available after the completion of the year in June-July 2016. Likewise, progress against intermediate outcome indicators is satisfactory, with a number of indicators already surpassing their targets. The mission recommends the following change in ratings: Implementation (S to MS), Project Management (S to MS) and Financial Management (MS to MU). Although in the aggregate, activities at the institutional level are proceeding well, with nearly two-thirds of institutions meeting the bar for being a “well-performing” institute in terms of performance against benchmark indicators (set in each JRM), this is a sharp drop from the previous JRM, where nearly 87% of institutes were ranked as well-performing. Institutes not meeting the benchmarks report common reasons: low expenditure and NBA accreditation. These reasons have been identified in previous JRMs too, but little progress has been made, thereby affecting activities in several institutes. This JRM reviewed the following topics: Governance, Autonomy, Accreditation, Faculty and Student Development, Centres of Excellence, Performance Auditing and Mentorship and the Four Funds. In all areas, the Project is doing well in the aggregate, meeting or exceeding targets. However, due to the slowdown in activities described above, reforms have not been completed in a number of institutes. As per the Department Order from the Department of Expenditure dated October 28, 2015 on funding pattern of centrally sponsored schemes, MHRD informed the mission team that it has opted for a centre-state funding proportion of 50:50 for TEQIP II, effective April 1, 2015. In this context, it was agreed that since the World Bank has been reimbursing the Government of India for 60 percent of project expenditures, based upon a centre-state 60:40 funding pattern, the new funding pattern will require modifying the Financing Agreement between the Government of India and the World Bank. With project closing scheduled for October 31, 2016, implementation is expected to pick pace. The final review mission is currently scheduled for August-Sept 2016. 8/27/2016 Page 2 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report India: Technical Engineering Educational Quality Improvement II (P102549) 8/27/2016 Page 3 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report India: Technical Engineering Educational Quality Improvement II (P102549) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance  --  Substantial  Substantial Macroeconomic  --  Low  Low Sector Strategies and Policies  --  Low  Low Technical Design of Project or Program  --  Low  Low Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Sustainability  --  Substantial  Substantial Fiduciary  --  Substantial  Substantial Environment and Social  --  Moderate  Moderate Stakeholders  --  Low  Low Other  --  --  -- Overall  --  Moderate  Moderate Results Project Development Objective Indicators PHINDPDOTBL  Share of supported programs that are accredited or applied for (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 30.00 63.00 63.00 55.00 Date 30-Nov-2009 30-Jun-2015 01-Mar-2016 31-Oct-2016 PHINDPDOTBL  Percentage of institutions with academic autonomy (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target 8/27/2016 Page 4 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report India: Technical Engineering Educational Quality Improvement II (P102549) Value 30.00 65.00 68.50 70.00 Date 30-Nov-2009 30-Jun-2015 01-Mar-2016 31-Oct-2016 PHINDPDOTBL  Percentage Faculty with at least an M.
