Knowledge management has become an area of research, since it was considered that the conservation and conservation of several branches of knowledge becomes the need of these days. Knowledge management produces several benefits in the management of strategies in business and academic areas. For this study, faculties working in engineering colleges chosen as sample in Trichy district. Totally 1500 faculties working in 34 engineering colleges belongs to Trichy district. 15% of faculties chosen up for the study by Proportionate random sampling technique. Multiple correlation was used in this study. based on the findings, Knowledge acquisition and knowledge storage & representation are highly associated with knowledge management practices of self-financing engineering faculties. The researcher concluded that higher education needs the knowledge management practices. Especially self-financing engineering colleges, when they practices the knowledge management automatically they support their faculties based on 720 degree performance appraisal. When the faculties perceived the organisational support, commitment in their job is in high level.
