Abstract
Engineering education in India is going through several quality issues such as increased un-employabillty among the passed graduates, unscientific selection processes which fail to find the right students with engineering aptitude, lack of availability of quality teachers in colleges etc. Of which, lack of quality teachers in engineering colleges is of primary concern among researchers in academia. However, the efforts to deal the quality issues by non-governmental organizations and researchers both at the social and engineering circles give some rays of hope. One such study is a proposal for training budding engineering teaching aspirants under the domain of a service titled Indian Technical Educational Service (ITES), in line with the three All India Service (IPS) and Indian Foreign Service (IFS). The objective of this paper is to suggest a structure for a national academy for ITES.
