The coordination of industry visits for teaching faculty is often hindered by inefficiencies in manual management practices, such as paper-based approvals, fragmented communication, and difficulty in tracking visit history. These limitations result in delays, lack of transparency, and ineffective reporting. To address these challenges, this project proposes the development of a Teaching Faculty Industry Visit Management Portal, a digital solution that streamlines the planning, approval, execution, and documentation of faculty industry visits. The proposed system incorporates automated scheduling, real-time tracking, and intelligent data management to enhance visit coordination and decision-making. It features role-based access for faculty, and administrators, along with a dynamic approval mechanism for reviewing visit proposals, budget allocation, and report tracking. Additionally, data analytics will be employed to generate insights into visit trends, industry collaborations, and faculty engagement. Designed with a modular architecture, the system ensures scalability and seamless integration with institutional ERP systems. Data security measures, including role-based authentication and encryption, will be implemented to safeguard sensitive records. By automating workflows, improving transparency, and enhancing efficiency, this Teaching Faculty Industry Visit Management Portal will foster stronger industry-academia collaboration, enabling faculty to engage seamlessly with industry partners while ensuring structured visit management.
