Fr. Principal’s Message

I am very happy to meet you through this page. Loyola College has stood above the restin its approach to education and in its pedagogies. The ways we teach and the ways ourstudents learn are unique and creative. Consistently, we never hesitated to look into ourdeficiencies and transform us to an efficient agent of social change. Many critics wouldconfirm that the College has substantially contributed to the process of NationalDevelopment by providing quality education and thereby enabling the students to becomeglobally competent. We have plans and dreams in the years to come. We propose tointroduce Aademic Audit for every department by external experts. This aims at regularscrutiny of the quality of teaching and the content of teaching. This will certainly go along way in enhancing quality in education in accordance with the objectives of theinstitution and in serving society at large with sensitivity and commitment. We envisage,in the coming years, an interdisciplinary research in science and social sciences. Thecollege as an autonomous institution for 30 years has achieved many feats and climbednew heights. Award of the College with Potential for Excellence in 2004 and NAAC’saccreditation at A+ level in 2006 and were some of them. Sooner or later we hope tobe honoured by the UGC as a Degree Awarding College.

Education is not an act of acquiring knowledge but learning a skill to lead life and formingone’s personality. This is an ennobling process of growth. I can boldly say that we haveexcelled in every initiative that we undertook and we have stood together in facing thechallenges in realizing quality education.

In all this, we have made every effort to be sensitive and compassionate to the marginalizedand the people in need. This has been the unique character of Jesuit Education. I feelhappy when the bright and talented students perform remarkably well. However whatmakes me happier is when a weak student from a rural background progresses steadilyfrom poor performance to better performance, moving towards excellence.

BACKGROUND

The College started functioning in July 1925 withjust 75 students on the rolls in the undergraduatecourses of Mathematics, History and Economics. SirA.P. Patrot, then Minister of Education, solemnlyinaugurated the institution on 12th October 1925. By1926, the college building emerged to its statelydimensions in the architectural hands of Mestriar S.A.Gnanaprakasam Pillai. Within three years after thestarting of the College, affiliation was obtained for theprestigious three years Honours courses following theintermediate. The first batch of Loyola graduates werepresented to the University Convocation in August1927, an event which the Principal named “ItsAcademic Baptism”. The College by this time hadample facilities for Sports and other activities. By 1929,there were 11 hostel blocks for accommodation. OnMarch, 6, 1931, the College Chapel was consecrated.The period between 1937 and 1942 saw a remarkableexpansion for the College under the caring hands ofFr. Murphy, S.J., Rector and Principal. The year 1942saw on its rolls 1387 students. Fr. Jerome D’Souza,S.J., who took over in 1942 enabled further expansionby introducing various courses during his tenure viz.,Hindi, French, Botany, Chemistry, Zoology in the B.Sc.and B.Com. (Honours).

The Silver Jubilee Celebrations commenced onOctober 27, 1950 with the inauguration of the threeday long function by the then Chief Minister of Madras,Hon’ble Sri. P.S. Kumaraswami Raja. In the year 1956,the Ignatian Centenary Year commemorating the 400thdeath anniversary of Saint Ignatius, a full-fledged M.A.in Social Work and several other post graduate coursesin M.A. and M.Sc. were also started.

The Golden Jubilee celebrations thoughoriginally planned for 1975, due to some unavoidablereasons was celebrated in 1976. The then PrimeMinister Mrs. Indira Gandhi inaugurated thecelebrations. Along with her words of wisdom andencouragement she added comments about herfriendship with eminent Jesuits like Fr. Jerome D’Souzaand Fr. Theo Mathias. The major event during thedecade after the Golden Jubilee, was the granting ofautonomy to the college in 1978. Loyola Institute ofBusiness Administration also started functioning from1979. During this period, new post graduate courses

in Statistics, Physics and Zoology were introduced.Special courses in Journalism, Tourism, ArtAppreciation, Photography, etc. were conducted asadditional courses in the autonomous system. Anotherimportant event was the opening of the EntomologyResearch Institute under the auspices of the CentralGovernment in 1985.

The Diamond Jubilee of the College wascelebrated in October 1986. Mr. M.O.H. Farook, thethen Chief Minister of Pondicherry and an Alumnuspresided over the celebration and inaugurated it. Yetanother sequel of this great event was the newdepartment B.Sc. in Visual Communication, the onlyone of its kind in the country which started functioningin 1989. From 1993, a new trend in education emergedin the form of self-financed courses. Also, LoyolaInstitute of Vocational Education, Loyola Institute ofFrontier Energy, Ignatian Institute of CareerDevelopment etc. were started during this period. In1998, B.A. French and M.A. Philosophy were started.The trend continues even today with BBA. M.Sc.Biotechnology and MCA being just started in 1999. In2000 we started M.Sc. Computer Science, B.C.A. andB.A. Corporate Secretaryship and M.Sc. InternationalBusiness in collaboration with South Bank University,London. Seventy-five years since its inception, todayas we enter the new millennium we are proud of theglorious past of this great college. The record placedis just a bird’s eye view of the multifarious activitiesand achievements of a great educational institution.“The life of man”, says the Psalmist, “is three-scoreand ten”. Loyola has crossed the Biblical barriers andis marching forward towards the centenary celebrationswith much glory, keeping ever fresh the Ignatian spiritof ‘Magis’, the greater.

Loyola, on the eve of the Platinum Jubilee, hasenvisaged a blue print of plans and programmes whichincludes restructuring the curriculum, improving andenriching the infrastructural facilities and to makingLoyola a Deemed University. Care has been taken tosee that it projects the meaningful direction to thefuture, which are definable, practical and realizable.Loyola’s commitment to harness value-basededucation for promoting a happy, harmonious andhealthy society is much appreciated by the stakeholders.

Loyola College is affiliated to the University of

Madras. The University of Madras, organised on the

model of London University was incorporated on 5th

September 1857 by an act of the legislative council of

India.

The National Assessment and Accreditation

Council popularly known as the NAAC, awarded Loyola

A Plus rating after making a thorough review of the

college and its various activities. The methodology

that they adopt to judge the colleges is unique and

effective. The colleges are judged based on various

parameters, such as related institutions in college,

facilities that are made available to the students

studying in the college in terms of lab, library,

classrooms, food, accommodation, etc.

The short-term goals and the long-term goals that

every institution has set for itself, have been reviewed

and checked for their successful completion and

measures that are being taken for the attainment of

the goals set for the future are analysed. In every

parameter of judgement, Loyola had an edge over all

the other institutions. Primarily, the Autonomy factor

comes into play. The innovative academic and

administrative methods, the choice based credit

system (CBCS) that is followed in the college, the

teaching methodologies and evaluation techniques

adopted by our professors are well appreciated by

NAAC. Further, feed back from the students on the

performance of the faculty provides a healthy academic

environment.

In pursuance of its statement or purpose, Loyola

College recognises as essential, its adherence to the

quality assurance and quality control procedures.

Quality assurance is achieved through external

appraisal of all courses using new course validation

events and subsequently through a process of

college based periodic reviews. To this end, the college

has constituted an Internal Quality Assurance Cell

(IQAC) which is assisted by an Extended Internal

Quality Assurance Cell and Quality Circle. While the

latter is a course-based activity, achieved through an

annual cycle of internal critical appraisal of the

operation, the success of courses is in meeting their

aims and objectives. The A Plus rating awarded by

the NAAC exemplifies as an approval for the nature in

which the College keeps its high standards in higher

education.

The College has been conferred with the status

of ‘College with Potential for Excellence’ by University

Grants Commission (UGC) in the year 2004. Loyola

College was one of the first few avant garde Colleges

to be chosen for this honour. Loyola has been rated

as the Best College in the city based an employability

The members of the Society of Jesus are popularlyknown as Jesuits. The Society of Jesus is a worldwideorganisation of religious men, numbering about 22,000of which nearly 4000 are working in 27 states of India.In Tamilnadu alone there are around 480 Jesuitsworking in schools, colleges, youth services and socialwork centres in parishes and in mission outreachprogrammes, and in almost every form of service andministry of the church.

Jesuit Education in the Madurai Province(Tamilnadu) today draws its inspiration from the twoepoch making statements: Vision Statement andPreamble to Jesuit Higher Education, originated inthe Madurai Meet of 1995.

Excerpts from the Vision Statement

The political freedom of our country achieved in1947 has failed to break the bondage of our peopleover the years. Today about 53% of our people havebeen made poor and kept illiterate. They are deprivedof the basic necessities of life, education of humandignity and the power to decide their own future. Thereis a degrading inequality caused primarily by castediscrimination. We understand that the contemporaryequivalent of the mission of salvation is the integralliberation of man, which is crystallized for us today inan ardent desire to work TOWARDS LIBERATIONTOGETHER WITH THE POOR. The preferential optionfor the poor means, that we cast our lot with themthrough concerted social action. Our love is, indeedfor all human beings, but assumes different forms. Welove the oppressed by espousing their cause and welove the oppressor by emancipating him from his greedand domination which dehumanise him.

Excerpts from the Preamble to Jesuit HigherEducation

Our educational institutions will shape our studentsinto agents of social change, preparing them forconcerted social action and thus paving the way tomass movements which will bring about the desiredliberation. They will, in their admission policies,actualise our preferential option for the poor by “givinga privileged place to the weak” who are poor

economically and academically and form them “asmen for others, stamped with the Ignatian hallmark ofexcellence and relevance”. They will challenge theexisting education system into reorienting itself in orderto respond to the crying needs of today’s society.They will also promote research in those branches ofarts and science and relevant pedagogy which wouldhelp build a just social order. Aware as we are of thegreat structural constraints we work under, we havereal apprehensions as to how effective our educationalinstitutions could be in bringing about the desiredsocial change through social action. Yet, respondingto the greater call to be pioneers and prophets. Weengage ourselves in the momentous task of liberationwith a readiness to pay the price the kingdomdemands.

The name Loyola comes from the ancestral castlethat was the family home where Saint Ignatius wasborn in 1491, the last of a large Basque family ofSpain. Pursuing a worldly career in the service of theking, he was wounded in the defence of Pamplonaand taken prisoner. While convalescing, he wasconverted and turned from the service of an earthlyruler to that of his divine Master, Jesus Christ. Hetook to a life of prayer, penance and serious studyand recorded his experiences in the book of TheSpiritual Exercises, which became the source andinspiration for all his followers. He gathered aroundhim like-minded and motivated university men (likeSt. Francis Xavier, who came to India), and foundedthe Society of Jesus in 1540.

The Coat of Arms

The Coat of arms of the college consists of ashield divided into four quarters with a torch and anopen book motif. The crest is the monogram and sealof the Society of Jesus. IHS being the first three lettersin Greek of the name, Jesus. The open book and theburning torch stand for the education imparted in thiscollege, which challenges the students to live up tothe college motto: LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE(Mt. 5:16) by their learning and good example so thatthey may become beacon-lights of hope and liberationof others.

SOME GUIDELINES REGARDINGCONTACT HOURS AND CREDITS (UG)

Based on weighted credit point system:

1. The Major, Specialization, Skill-based, SubjectElective, English and Languages will get 2credits for every 3 contact hours, per week unit.

2. The allied courses (Required and Optional) willget 4 credits for 6 contact hours per week unit.

3. The General Electives, Foundation Courses,and Computer Applications, will get 2 creditsfor 3 contact hours per week unit.

4. One hour of the Living Faiths of the World isallotted for Catholic Doctrine or Scriptures orPhilosophy of Religion.

5. The NSS/NCC/Sports and the Outreach will get4 credits for the whole course, spread over 2semesters.

ALLIED COURSES:

In general, all the students are encouraged to takethe allied courses from four different departmentshelping the major. In order to give more flexibility to thestudents in the choice of their allied, the four alliedcourses are divided into two:

1. Two are pre-requisites as they are fundamentalto a particular major, designated as Required(R), and student has to take them.

2. The other two are called Optional (0). Hence,a student has the choice to take them (one orboth) or take some other relevant course(s)from other department(s) of his choice.

SPECIALIZATION:

With regard to Specialization Courses given by theDepartment in the VI semester, the department is freeto offer courses that are application-oriented instead ofhigher-level subject-oriented courses.

NSS/NCC/SPORTS:

These extra-curricular activities will be undertakenduring the I and II semesters.

OUTREACH:

Outreach Programme (LEARN) will be held duringthe III and IV semesters.

COMPUTER APPLICATIONS:

Students are to learn computer course related toMajor subject. However those who have previousknowledge of computers may be exempted fromattending classes after presenting proper evidences tothe Professor concerned. But, they will have to take therequired tests for continuous assessment of the course.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

� A student majoring in a subject will learn aminimum of 50 per cent and a maximum of 65per cent from the majoring department.

� The contact hours indicated against eachsubject would include classroom instructions,assignments, group discussions, field visitsand related activities and should not beconfined to only classroom lectures.

� Personal guidance by the mentor is absolutelyvital for the success of the students.

TESTING & EVALUATION

Evaluation is based on Continuous Assessment and Terminal Assessment with equal weightage of 50%

each.

1. Continuous Assessment includes Organized Tests and other categories such as quiz, seminar, assignment,

etc.

On a day specified in the college calendar of every semester the statement of marks (C.A.) are to be

verified and signed by the student in the presence of the course teacher. Any discrepancy in the entry

is to be brought to the notice of the course teacher / HOD concerned immediately. Rectification of marks

after this is strictly not permitted.

Retest: Any request for retest is considered only with the recommendation of the individual teacher

concerned and the Head of the Department. The request should reach the Vice-Principal during the C.A.

Test-II. Only students who have more than 80% attendance are eligible for retest.

2. Terminal Assessment consists of Semester Examination.

Courses having 6 contact hours have a 3 hour semester examination. The Elective (General), Foundation

Courses and Computer Literacy will not have Semester Exams and they will be assessed on a continuous

basis.

Whenever a course involves a package, e.g. Theory & Practical, a student will be given the credits only

when he passes the requirements of the whole package. Partial fulfillment will be kept in suspension until

one completes the whole package.

In the Odd Semester (I, III, V), the papers of the Even Semester (II, IV, VI) are not offered.

Examinations

Examinations are intelligently and carefully planned and executed. Purposeful planning is adopted to meet

new requirements.

• Semester assessment is in the form of a comprehensive examination for each course.

• A double valuation system is followed.

• There is no revaluation and re-totalling because of double valuation (Internal and External), and no re-

totalling because of a comprehensive total check done by the Examination Section for every student.

• Photocopies of evaluated Semester Exam answer sheets will be made available to students on request

in the prescribed form along with prescribed fee.

• Results will be published within three weeks.

• Results are brought on the website and statement of marks are distributed to the students during the

parent-teachers’ meeting.

• Supplementary exams are held within three weeks from the publication of the results of the even semester

for the outgoing students.

• Computerized statement of marks are issued semester-wise and computerized Cumulative Marks Statement

is given after completion with hologram and the latest photograph of the student. A unique Security

Number is given for each student in the Cumulative Marks Statement.

• Classification of successful candidates is based on Credit Weighted Average only. Credit Weighted

Average (CWA) =

ADVANCED ZOOLOGY & BIOTECHNOLOGY

HISTORY : The Department of Natural Sciences was established in the year 1948. A full-fledged Department

of Zoology was started in the year 1957 offering B.Sc Zoology. In spite of being an undergraduate department

it was recognized officially as a Center for Research by the University of Madras in 1965. In 1984 the department

was upgraded into a postgraduate department and started offering M.Sc Zoology with emphasis on environmental

biology. A postgraduate diploma course in Medical Lab Technology was introduced in the year 1988. The

sequential M.Phil program in Zoology of the University of Madras for the experienced college teachers was

conducted in the department from 1986 and subsequently permission was granted for full time M.Phil course

in 1988. In the year 2003, the department started M.Sc in Medical Lab Technology and in the year 2004 the

department started M.Sc. in Biomedical Instrumentation Science. In the academic year 2005-06 the University

of Madras granted affiliation for B.Sc. Advanced Zoology and Biotechnology. This curriculum replaced B.Sc.

Zoology. It is the only department to offer three post graduate programmes.

The department has many FIRST’s to its credit

1. The very first research publication of Loyola College is from this department as early as 1949.

2. Inspite of being an undergraduate department in 1965, it was recognized officially as a center for

COMPUTER SCIENCEThe current century is hallmarked with Information explosion and Technological expansions. Keeping this

growth as an emerging context, the Department of Computer Science, enlarges its vision and avenues in many

ways. Right from its inception in 1993, every year the department experiences a palpable and tactile growth

to face the unprecedented development in science and technology.

The department offers undergraduate courses B. Sc and BCA and M. Sc as a post graduate course. It has

the State-of-the-art computer labs with LCD projectors installed in each. This academic year we were endowed

with 200 gifted students and 13 talented and committed teachers who instill greater knowledge in the minds

of the students. At present there are 480 students in the department.

As new endeavors, this year the department signed a MoU with CTS and this is a commendable milestone

that we cherish.

We are proud to mention that a multitude of students have been placed in many IT companies, thanks to the

concerted and collective efforts taken up by the faculty members. The department organizes seminars and

workshops on relevant themes recurrently to help the students to be aware and be competent in facing the

challenges of today’s world and thus the welfare of the student community becomes the primary concern.

ENGLISHThe Department of English, one of the largest in the college and the most innovative in the country was startedin 1925. It has to its credit the recognition of being the first department in the state to introduce the conceptof streamed teaching through an English Placement Test to take care of the individual learner differences. Overthe period the placement process has evolved into ‘We Stream, They Stream and No Stream’ for the I, II andIV Semesters respectively. The IV Semester English called the Value Added General English (VAGE) usesauthentic text from the print media to expose the learner to issues of human development to cultivate a criticalconsciousness for the purpose of employment through transcoding and transcreation.

FOREIGN LANGUAGESFrom the inception of the college, French was taught as a second language. Fr.Auguste Sauliere S.J., the

founder of Loyola Hostel, was the first French Professor. Among the stalwarts, Prof.A.Maria Gabriel who worked

for 39 years and Prof. Divien and Prof. D.Gopalakrishnan deserve special mention. At present, there are 11

teachers in the Department, 10 teachers handle French and one teacher is in charge of German classes. Prof.

K. Srinivasan who has taught German for 33 years deserve special mention. Almost all the French and German

teachers have had training in France and Germany respectively. German language was introduced in 1968.

The French and German Departments were merged into the Department of Foreign Languages in 1981 under

the headship of Chevalier Dr.Xavier Raj. First Language courses, optional and elective courses are also offered

which are tailored to contemporary needs like Spoken French, Scientific French, French for Business etc. B.A.

French was started in 1949 and was reintroduced in 1998 as self-supporting course. Beginners in French are

also admitted to B.A. French and given special coaching to cope with the major studies in French. Girls are

also admitted from the year 2001. German is an allied subject while Tourism and Hotel Management and

Ticketing are the skill based courses for the B.A. French.

Dr. G.F.Xavier Raj who was the HOD till 2005 was succeeded by Prof. K.Candasamy till 2007. Dr. G.F. Xavier

Raj is a recognised guide for the Ph.D. He was decorated as Chevalier of Academic Palms for his

services to the students and teachers of French from the French Government in December 2005. At present,

Prof. (Mrs.) Rebecca George is the Head of the Department.

FOUNDATION COURSESI. The Foundational idea for the Foundation Courses

The department offers four courses that help the Loyola student understand him/herself and social reality andmake a considered analysis about one’s personality and the society. This is to help form his/her personalityand develop skills that place the intellectual base structure to a certain extent for his/her studies at the college.And later this would provide him/her a vision of life that is humanistic, liberal and pluralistic. This is unique toLoyola college. It is obligatory for every undergraduate student that s/he should score pass marks for theaward of the degree in the major subject UG for which she has been admitted to the college. The fundamentalsof the foundation courses are intended to reflect and follow the charism of the College that is to form men andwomen for others who are competent, committed and compassionate. This makes them lead meaningful lives.This is the Jesuit character of the college. That is the difference that Loyola wants to make in the lives of itsstudents.

II. Objectives

• To equip the students with the skills that they will need to benefit from and participate in the next levelsof their educational course

• To help the students develop appreciation and respect for multi-religious and multi-cultural fabric of Indiansociety

HISTORYWhen Fr. Bertram, Fr. Murphy and Fr. Foreau of Madurai province founded the Loyola College on 7th July 1925,

little did anyone realize that the institution would later come to define the very academic fabric of the Indian

sub-continent. The college started functioning with 75 students on the rolls in the under-graduate courses of

Mathematics, History and Economics, one of the first three courses offered initially. Among these, the Department

of History has a history as old as Loyola College. The tale of the founding and the emergence of the

department is in many respect characteristic of its age. Fr. Burrows SJ took charge of the department. It was

closed in 1927 but was revived in 1957 under Prof. Rajendran who later became the Principal of SIVET College.

Under autonomy (since 1978) the department scaled greater heights with innovative allied and optional courses

thus broadening the base of history for career and for job opportunity. The Department was upgraded into a

post-graduate department in 1993. It became co-educational and helped girls to enter the PG programme in

‘Applied History’. The University gave permission in the year 2006 to start a regular M.Phil. in History (Full-Time

and Part-Time). The Department has at present part-time Ph.D. programme and so far about seven persons

have been awarded Ph.D. in History. The Department will be celebrated the golden jubilee in March 2008.

Sacred Heart College was established in 1895 at Shembaganur, Kodaikanal, Tamilnadu, as a centre for thephilosophical training of young men who chose to become Catholic priests in the Society of Jesus. Severalhundred students from India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Europe and North America have passed out ofthis College during its long history.

Prompted by a desire to be closer to the centres of higher learning and culture, the Department was shiftedto its present campus in 1980. Along with this decision to shift the College, its name was modified as SacredHeart College, Satya Nilayam, Institute of Philosophy and Culture, though it is popularly known as SATYANILAYAM.

In February 1986, Satya Nilayam was recognized by the University of Madras as a Research Centre forconducting research leading to Ph.D. in Philosophy (Indian & Western) and in Sanskrit. In 1995, Satya Nilayamcelebrated its centenary, and is poised towards preparing ecclesial personnel for the 3rd millennium.

In 1998 the University of Madras recognized our philosophy study programme as M.A. It is done throughLoyola College which is a recognized autonomous college. Thus Satya Nilayam has entered a new phase ofgiving M.A. degree to our students and the Philosophy programme is revised accordingly.

Hence Satya Nilayam has the following units functioning within its campus Ecclesiastical Faculty of Philosophy,Department of Philosophy of Loyola College (for which a separate calendar is issued by the College), and theResearch Centre for Philosophy and Sanskrit, recognized by the University of Madras.

PLANT BIOLOGY AND BIOTECHNOLOGYThe Department of Botany had been established during the tenure of the great Indian Jesuit Rev. Jerome

D’Souza in 1948. From then, it has remained an undergraduate department for about fifty years; It has made

great strides in introducing courses such as Microbiology, Pharmacognosy, Environmental toxicology, Agriculture

and Horticulture, Seed Science etc. It has been chosen as the Nodal Department by UGC to run vocational

course in Biotechnology. Through LIVE, the department is running a one year post graduate diploma course

in Industrial Microbiology. From the year 2000, the Department has been renamed as Department of Plant

Biology and Biotechnology and has been upgraded as PG Dept., since it is offering M.Sc Biotechnology under

Self Financed pattern. From 2006, the Department is offering M.Sc. Industrial Biotechnology Management in

tie up with Lille Catholic University, France. The Department has been granted the recognition to conduct

M.Phil. and Ph.D programmes from 2007. Currently the department has received major research projects from

SOCIOLOGYDepartment of Sociology saw its inception with undergraduate programme in Sociology, in the year 1983.

During its 25 years of existence in Loyola, it had a galaxy of academic luminaries guiding the destiny of the

Department as heads.

The department is committed to offer quality education in Sociology. It seeks to fulfil this commitment through

innovative methods of teaching and learning and exposing the students to the frontier and upcoming areas

within Sociology. Medical Sociology, Science Technology and Society, Sociology of Literature, Future Studies,

Sociology of Economic Life, Sociology of Social Movements, Sociology of Religion, to mention a few.

The under-graduate programme in Sociology at Loyola College is unique, for it incorporates the essential

theoretic inputs with practical components. The Department periodically revises and updates its curriculum.

The Sociology graduates of our college are well placed in the society. Our illustrious alumni include Manoj.

I.A.S.; Michael Kennedy I.R.S.; MGM Maran the industrialist, Shriram, CEO of an IT company.

M.A. Medical Sociology:

Masters programme in Medical Sociology was started in the year 2004-05, keeping in view of the fact that Tamil

Nadu, particularly Chennai is fast becoming the Mecca for quality health care seekers. The need for sociologically

informed technical man power in health care services/industries is the reason for this programme of study. In

tune with this rationale, admission to this course is opened for the first time in India, to all those stake holders

in health and health care delivery namely, doctors, surgeons, nurses, pharmacists, physiotherapists, occupational

therapists, etc. This course prepares the students into various areas of health care services management,

which includes hospital human resource management, health outreach programme management, medical

ethics and law to mention a few. The PG programme in Medical Sociology has internship in a multi-speciality

hospital for 6 months as a course requirement for completing the programme.

Excepts from the Annual Meeting of the Syndicate of Unviersity of Madras held on29th March 2008 :

• M.A. Medical Sociology be changed as M.Sc. Medical Sociology, offered in LoyolaCollege (Autonomous), Chennai to take effect from the academic year 2007-2008and thereafter.

3. guide students gain knowledge and confidence to take up challenging careers in media.

COURSE DYNAMICS

To realize the three-fold objectives, the course dynamics is structured as a blend of the following three

trajectories:

Trajectory I : Multi-disciplinary theoretical foundation

Trajectory II : Identification and development of media skills

Trajectory III : Career training

METHODOLOGY

The methodology encompasses three aspects:

1. Theoretical inputs drawn from different disciplines.

2. Practical knowledge of handling various assignments through hands-on expenence.

3. Experiential exposure to media environment in the form of fieldwork and internship, guided by a rigorous

field methodology.

Loyola continues to maintain its tradition of study

and excellence not only in academics, social service

and other extra curricular activities, but also in the

field of sports and games. Competitive sports today is

not only an amalgamation of endurance, skill, energy

and excellence but it also carries with it a sense of

fulfilment that is emotional, satisfying and enthralling.

Sportsmen need recognition, support and

encouragement on a day like this. Perhaps sportsmen,

many of whom are incredibly gifted and great

performers go unnoticed in the classrooms. The fact

remains that a good number of them are passionately

committed to their sport and are making a determined

effort to achieve the goals set for themselves. Step by

step they are trying to build up their career through

several hours of labour and strenuous practice. All

this for the greater glory of sports and for Loyola.

Loyola’s Sports achievements are not only

confined to the state level but also extended to national

and international levels.

Students of Loyola generally have the opportunity

to play and excel in several sports events. The college

has excellent teams of Athletes and in Games such as

Volley ball, Basketball, Hockey, Football, Cricket, Ball

Badminton, Tennis, Table Tennis, Chess and Rowing.

Loyola provides scientific training, coaching and

competitive skills to all members of the college teams.

A programme for ‘non college team members’ i.e.,

students who need credit course in different games is

held on weekends. The whole students community,

every year participate in the inter-departmental

tournaments.

2. COUNSELLINGLoyola college aims at chiselling the students into

men and women mature, balanced and responsible.In view of this, the college is providing the studentswith the services of professional counsellors.

From Ms. Radha Appasamy in 1974 to the presentFr. Rajan S.J., the college has been providing helplinesfor the students . There are a few part-time counsellors[Prof. K. Kandasamy, Prof. G.M. James andProf. James Sundarraj] who also help the students.

Last academic year the college appointedMs. Bhavani Rao as a full time counsellor [Timings –10:00 am - 4:00 pm] to offer councelling particularlyto women students.

Counselling means, for us, the professional helprendered to the students to grow psychologically andmake him/her self-sufficient and self-directed person.

Counselling aims to promote the individual’s allround growth and adjustment. Counselling equips thestudents with competency which enable him/her tomake necessary choices and required decisions.

Counsellors help the students to identify theirtalents and enhance their academic achievementsthrough proper planning and time management.

Vice-principals, Deans, Professors and otherofficials identify the students, who may need help andsend them to counsellors.

On the first day of college, the parents of 1st yearU.G’s, who accompanied the students were given aspecial session by the counsellors. Parents arewelcome to approach the counsellors regarding theirward’s performance and behaviour.

Counselling is not only for those who haveproblems, even others can meet the counsellor forimprovement and betterment of their skills.

The college definitely expects the students tobenefit from the services of the counsellors.

3. DIGITAL LIBRARYFacilities Available

The campus wide network installed at LoyolaCollege is similar in installation and function to manyuniversity and college networks in the USA. The variousfacilities available on the campus wide network are:

Local e-mail services

The internet server allows the staff and studentsin the campus to exchange messages with each other.This can be used to facilitate student-student andstudent-teacher communication that extend beyondthe classroom and for communication among the staffof the college.

Internet e-mail services

Loyola College has an official website www.loyolacollege.edu, for the purpose of providing collegeInternet access to all its staff and students. The serverinstalled in the campus allows the users to log on tothe local web e-mail gateway site and use web-basede-mail for sending and receiving messages. Staff andstudents can exchange e-mail with any other Internete-mail user.

Internet web services

The internet server comes with a web server thatallows the college to publish documents online. Home

162

pages have been created for departments to publishdocuments relevant to their field.

e.g. the computer department internet home pageat http://www.loyolacollege.edu/computer/ has detailson this PORTAL 2001 conference. Departmental homepages are updated. They feature issues that wouldinterest prospective students. In addition, informationof interest is made available to the current studentswho can obtain information like course schedules,current assignments, events list, etc.

Mailing list servicesThe mailing list services are useful in making

announcements to a group of users on a particulartopic, e.g. a mailing list has been created for thepurpose of this conference wherein students and staffwho have subscribed to the list were kept informedvia regular updates on the status of the conferenceand the details of various presentations to be made.Similar mailing lists can be created to keep the usersupdated of upcoming events or important dates likeexams. etc.

Discussion forumsDiscussion forums is a place wherein many users

can come and participate in discussions on a particulartopic. While the mailing list is a one way announcementservice, the discussion forums are interactive andinvolve all the participants. The advantage of adiscussion forum, is that all the users need not beconnected to the forum at the same time in order toshare their thoughts, e.g. a discussion. forum on“Restructuring” can be created on the Loyola College

internet server wherein staff and students candeliberate on the advantages and ways ofimplementing this new approach in the campus.Discussion forums can be used for any topic thatrequires two-way interaction. Brainstorming sessionsbetween students and the teacher can be conductedin a systematic manner using discussion forums.

Online chat is probably one of the most oftenused functions of the network. Online chat allows theusers to have real-time based conversations with otherson the network. It is useful for conducting meetingswith staff or students who are spread across thecampus.

Internet services

The services we have seen so far like mailinglists, discussion forums, chat etc are all services thatare operated within the campus. In addition to this theintranet system also offers access to web sites on theInternet.

Server administration services

Finally, the administration services in the intranetserver allow the network administrators to add newusers, open out intranet web sites, add new functionsto the network like new mailing lists or discussionforums, etc. There is also an in-built content blockingsystem installed on the server that allows theadministrator to block access to unwanted Internetweb sites.

4. FORUM FOR LOYOLA WOMEN STUDENTSOn several occasions the women have been

drawn to discussion on what it feels to be a ‘woman’in an institution like Loyola, which in perception stillremains to be a male bastion in terms of strength.Clearly, the women students have enabled themselvesto bring the “better” within themselves and take activepart. The college has a Dean to take care of thewomen students. A forum has been established inthe year 1998 and was christened in the year 2006 asFlows (Forum for Loyola Women Students).

A woman coordinator is elected among womenstudents in which they promote the symposiums, work-shops and seminars at various levels like cancer inwomen, women reproductive health, women rights etc.which allow them to provide rational solutions and act

towards the goals. They also promote deliberationsover the various issues related to the plight of theunderprivileged and the oppressed women. They alsovoice the rights of women. A newsletter for women“Women’s Voice” was brought in to facilitate thewomen students to ventilate their feelings and also tobring out their hidden talents.

Women are given equal opportunity, and havebeen successful by imparting the values of disciplineand life in the way ahead after Loyola, as they emergeto excel in all spheres of life. Women students arealso motivated and oriented to understand that theyare more privileged than any body else through theirvisit to Banyan, Cancer Institute and other such Insti-tutions.

The IQACmay derive major support from the already existingunits and mechanisms that contribute to the functionslisted above. The operational features and functionsdiscussed so far are broad based to facili tateinstitutions towards academic excellence andinstitutions may adapt them to their specific needs.

Role of IQAC - Challenaes and Strateaic Initiatives1. Role of IQAC is difficult - Standard setting is

difficult and the teaching community is afraid ofsetting standards (Quality benchmarks)

2. Often the role of the IQAC is seen as the bodywhich prepares for accreditation or for re-accreditation. It is not seen as on ongoingstandard setting/testing body

3. It is also viewed as a documentation centre anda data-base centre

4. It’s work is seen in isolation and not holistically

Strategic Initiatives:1. Quality Circle members to act as feed-back system

to the crucial component of the IQAC namely(teaching, learning and evaluation)

2. Subjecting ourselves to external scrutiny - anacademic audit

3. Public/open forum to give students to expresstheir views on various aspects of their academiclife

definitely enhance the communication skills of the

students. We also feel that having facilities like video

recording and play back of role play and speeches by

language departments.

LOYOLA INSTITUTE OF FRONTIER ENERGY (LIFE)

ORIGIN:

Loyola Institute of Frontier Energy (LIFE) wasstarted in Loyola in 1995 for the purpose ofinterdisciplinary research in the area of Physics,Chemistry and Zoology with energy and environmentas its focus and local relevance as its target. Six like-minded Professors from these three departmentsjoined together under the leadership of Dr. Francis P.Xavier, S.J. and began functioning in a small lab inthe Life Science Building. At present this lab is primarilyused by the physics group, while, the Chemistry andZoology groups are operating in small labs in therespective departments with the available facilities.

ACHIEVEMENTS:

Over the last six years LIFE has made great stridesexemplified by a large number of research publicationsboth in national and international journals, conduct offive symposia and publication of their proceedings,awards for excellence to the staff and students, Projectsobtained from funding agencies, and submission ofM.Phil. and Ph.D. work. A number of our students aregetting scholarships, fellowships and awards for theirdistinguished contributions. Our successfulcollaborative work with Indira Gandhi Centre for AtomicResearch (lGCAR), Kalpakkam has paved the way forLoyola Society to establish an MOU with IGCAR inMarch 2000.

PRESENT STATUS:

Currently LIFE has 8 staff members (three of themare Jesuits) and 25 Ph.D. and M.Phil. students and 10M.Sc. students involved in project work. The staff hadprocured number of research projects and areattempting for many more. Equipments are beingadded regularly. LIFE has taken the responsibility ofpublishing the Science Quarterly ‘CONVERGENCE’ asa Madurai Jesuit Province Higher Education initiative.It also has ambitious plans of inviting specialists whowill spend a length of time interacting with scholarsand present seminars.

UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS:

LIFE is possibly the only academic institutionpurposely devoted to interdisciplinary researchincluding bioethics in ‘India. It provides and nurturesa beautiful platform for Jesuit-lay collaboration, Besidesworking as a team among themselves, Jesuits are ina collaborative effort with lay colleagues. Thus teamwork is emphasized and promoted at all levels.

FUTURE DIRECTION:

A notable flaw in our College education, pointedout by many scholars is the severecompartmentalisation of areas of knowledge. With

175

frontiers in science and engineering breaking, ourstudents need to be exposed to barrierless education.A three-storied building for LIFE is under constructionat the heart of Loyola campus. This as a separatebuilding would stand out differently from othertraditional departments with emphasis on collaborativemultidisciplinary research. We hope this new emphasisof higher education will take Loyola College to thefrontiers of quality and relevant education in our times.Since the Staff of LIFE are regular faculty of Loyola,students from M.Sc. and even B.Sc. will be exposed

to the infrastructure of LIFE such as moderrninstrumentation, good library, and seminars fromexperts etc. LIFE also plans to conduct extensionservice in the area of training children in modernscience and scientific instrumentation. Science campswill be organised on a regular basis and a separatelab for this purpose is included in the building plan.

INSTITUTE OF DIALOGUE WITH CULTURES AND RELIGIONS (IDCR)A. OUR VISION

This institute is a research center that involves itself inresearch activities on conflicts between religions andcultures and on the ways of evolving conflict resolutionsthrough dialogue and understanding. The University ofMadras, Chennai, has recognized the institute as apostgraduate (doctoral) research center on comparativestudies in religions and cultures. It can supervisedoctoral theses on this theme.

The institute promotes and advocates dialogue betweencultures and religions in India through initiatives ofintervention, research, and publication on sociocultural

and religious conflicts. We view dialogue as evolvingconflict resolution that can bot only establish peacefulpro-existence between religious and cultural groups butalso help celebrate the dignity of difference. This conflictresolution, we believe, can be achieved by the dialogueof life and philosophies, conversation and collaborativeaction between different religious, cultural andideological groups. More sharply the institute tries torally different secular forces to promote cultural libertyad diversity by timely intervention during conflicts andproactive intervention and initiatives during peacefultimes.

178

B. OUR PHILOSOPHY

The basic philosophy upon which the institute isfounded is that human life, particularly in a country likeIndia, is multi-culturally and multi-religiously textured andlived. The conflict between different faiths and culturesin born out of lack of proper understanding of mutualityof human existence. Therefore, serious research andinvolvement at the grass root level is called for by whichwe can evolve processes of conflict resolution that fosterrespect and proper understanding of the dignity ofdifference in a multi-cultural society.

The institute actualises its philosophical foundation infour ways: research, involvement, training, andpublications. A conflict, be it religious or cultural, is takenup for serious research that demands involvement inthe lives of the people had participant observation ofthe conflictual situations. The data that is gathered fromthe fieldwork are analysed and interpreted in order tosuggest ways and means by which we can promoteconflict resolution. The findings are published as books,articles and documents that help replicate conflictresolution elsewhere. From the year 2004 the institutehas been doing research on religion and violence inCoimbatore City in Tamil Nadu where there was a seriesof killings and bomb blasts between Muslims andHindus in 1992. From February 2006 onwards the datagathered form the city will be analysed by experts andlater main findings will be published.

C. OUR OBJECTIVES:a) To reach out different types of cultures and religious

traditions.b) To bring different cultural and religious groups

together to participate in the secular initiatives ofstruggles for justice and peace.

c) To research into situations of cultural and religiousconflicts in Tamil Nadu and India.

d) To evolve a network of a secular forces to counterreligious fundamentalism.

e) To facilitate mutual enrichment between culturesand religions while giving due respect to theirunique identities.

D. RESEARCH ACTIVITIES:

Action – Research – Publication is the triadic approachto communal harmony.• Monitoring socio-religious and political situation in

and through fieldwork and research.• Conducting periodic dialogue sessions, seminars

and lectures on conflict situation.• Through a newsletter dissemination secular ideals

that can enhance the secular and democratic fabricof the nation.

• Helping to form and develop inter-religious groupsthat would activity promote communal harmony.

E. ACTION PLAN FOR 2005 – 2010:IDCR is now at the Loyola College Campus, in a newbuilding. We already have some research students. Wewill be focusing on conflict resolution to socio-religiousissues through research and action. For theseprogrammers we will also be approaching bothgovernmental and non-governmental organizations formutual collaboration:1. Evolving a secular network of scholars and activists

that can respond to any situation of conflict.2. Training programmes for selected schools and

Colleges in Tamil Nadu on the theme of a SecularForce for Communal Harmony.

3. Research programmes on religion and violence.This is proactive research on conflict-resolution. Weare currently engaged in studying inter-religiousconflict, with Coimbatore as a starting point andexample, and in evolving plans to promote inter-religious harmony.Research project on caste and violence. This looksat violence in the name of caste in Tamil Nadu.Specifically, for a controlled observation we will bechoosing one district that is sensitive and vulnerableto caste clashes in the past and study the factorsthat contribute to violence. From this we will besuggesting strategies that can promote harmonybetween different caste groups.

4. Research project on Quest for Identity this studiesthe formation Tamil identity in history. It looks at theways in which Tamil identity has evolved in andthrough may encounters and interaction withdifferent cultures in the past. The broad area of thisresearch is culture and identity.

LOYOLA INSTITUTE OF PEOPLE STUDIES (LIPS)The Vision

The vision of People Studies is to transform theconventional academic institution into an effectivepeople-building agency by committing itself to people-centred, field-based research-oriented endeavours, theoutcomes of which are to be taken, through allavailable media, both mainstream and alternative, backto the people, the primary stake-holders and endbeneficiaries, with the view to motivate them to movetowards an alternative political culture and, in theprocess, enabling the academic community, thesecondary stakeholders, to learn from-and-as thepeople leading to greater sensitization of theacademics’ responsibility to work towards an equitablesociety.

The Mission

In accordance with the definitive Jesuit thrust in highereducation, People Studies is an attempt towardsbridging the apparent chasm between the disengagedCampus and the divided society. Inevitably, PeopleStudies will engage itself in for-and-with-the-peopleresearch-oriented activities that evince greater culturaland political ramifications. People, especially thesubaltern and periphery communities, are not merelyconstrued as targets of study but included as co-investigators, not just the academic ‘con-texts’ butprimarily the ‘co-texts’, who in turn become the pivotalfocal point to, and the end-beneficiaries of, the verycurricular re/design.

The Motto

The motto, condensing the afore-said Vision andMission into the phrase “Studying the People is Forthe People” [’kf;fis Ma;tJ kf;fSf;fhfNt”], will serve asthe core philosophy of and the guiding principle forPeople Studies.

The Objectives

Consonant with its Vision and the Jesuit Mission,People Studies has the following objectives:

01. to undertake multi-disciplinary socially relevantresearches, both quantitative and qualitative, thevery methodology of which would include peopleas primary stake-holders,

03. to disseminate the research outcomes and themedia-text packages through mainstream andalternative media to reach out to as many people,the end beneficiaries, as possible,

04. to involve in its programmes as many from theacademic community as feasible – teachers andstudents alike – providing a ‘hands-on’ experienceof or an insight into the intricate cultural-politicalreality,

05. to bring together the academicians, social andpolitical activists, media practitioners and all‘people-thinking’ persons to deliberate on andproactively respond to the concerns of the peopleas evidenced in the research outcomes,

06. to innovate and design people-based neweracademic programmes and modules, and / or tocontribute, where needed, to modifying theexisting curricula, and

07. to undertake commissioned projects withprofessional competence, without at the sametime jeopardizing or contravening its people-centred-ness, and in the process to make it self-sustainable.
