Abstract: In this article, drawing from an engineering students' perspective, we explore the servant leadership of teachers of engineering colleges. Our data collected from 2,112 male and 774 female demonstrate that 94.5% engineering students rate the servant leadership of engineering teachers at 50% and above level. Similarly, 52.4% engineering students rate the servant leadership of engineering teachers at 70% and above level. It is also observed that the 'age 'of the engineering students and the 'location' of the residence of engineering students affect their perception regarding servant leadership of engineering teachers. We also observed that the region of residence, gender and the education level of the engineering students do not have any significant effect on the perception of engineering students regarding servant leadership of engineering teachers. It contributes to the knowledge of the nature of servant leadership by giving insights to the servant leadership behaviour of the teachers of engineering colleges from students perceptive.
