The questionnaire relates to the expectations that the students have gained from their native institutions as wellas from their families. Randomly collected data from 200 students is analyzed. Six-sigma techniques of an Affinity diagram, Paretoanalysis, SIPOC analysis, a Cause and Effect matrix and Scatter plots are used for the analysis.
