percentage/promoted and its comparison with the University results is carried out.

Percent of students obtaining first division and marks above 70%, No, of first divisions and

compartments is calculated for each subject. This helps in identifying the weak areas and

make strategies to address accordingly. The college Principal presides over the staff meeting

on the first day of the session and these results are discussed and feedback is taken from

teachers for further improvement.

Different teaching Departments are asked to prepare their annual calendars, make a work

plan that is displayed on the notice boards.

The time-table and term-wise teaching plans for respective subjects are prepared in full

consonance with the Academic Calendar of the University ensuring a well-timed

commencement of different courses/programmes.

IQAC plays a role in designing the college prospectus so that any information regarding new

course/subjects to be introduced and required eligibility criteria is printed in the prospectus. It

is ensured that prospectus is printed by May end so that is available well in advance of the

admission schedule.


The evaluation blue print comprising the internal assessment on basis of September and

December House Examinations, regular and minimum attendance requirements, eligibility for

final examination and other rules & regulations is properly highlighted in the college

Prospectus.

Functioning of the institution. Give details.

\

Matter is under active consideration of IQAC

PF loans, loans through banks, wheat loan, loan against salary to meet emergencies,

summer & winter uniform for class IV employees etc. Apart from these usual welfare

schemes, the institution has introduced some innovative welfare schemes. The teaching &

non-teaching staff has created contributory staff welfare corpora to extend financial support

in case of illness and death. There is a co-operative society which provides loans to the

teaching and non-teaching staff. Special efforts are made to liberate the class IV

employees of the college from the debt trap of bloodsucking usurers by arranging cheap

personal loans from the banks. The college arranges the supply of blood to all members of

the organization and their relatives, during emergencies.

The college has glorious tradition of celebrating Vanmahotsava every year. Tree plantation drives are carried out every year. Punjab national Bank sponsored an amount of Rs. 12000/- during the session 2012-13 for plantation of trees.

Solar lighting has been provided at various strategic places in the college?.

Silent Power generator has been purchased.

The departments have been encouraged to submit computerized award lists,

assessments and attendance records. Departments of Biology, Chemistry and

Mathematics have adopted the new initiative. It is hoped more departments will follow suit

in the coming session.

Almost complete computerization for maintaining student record has been achieved. This

has helped in keeping a track of the students progression as their contact numbers are

easily available and this has also made it easy for the Career Guidance cell which can

send the list of students to various recruitment agencies. Plans are afoot to maintain

record of e-mail IDs of the students.

Purchase of ICT tools will definitely help in enrichment of teaching learning process.

The Petrol Gas Supply System earlier used for Chemistry Labs has been replaced with LPG System and this initiative has slashed the energy requirements from 400 litres of petrol to 08 LPG cylinders per annum.

Strengths: The hardworking faculty, an array of enrichment activities, richly stocked

library and Laboratories

Weakness: The ban on recruitment of teaching and non-teaching facilities by the state

govt. and deficit Govt grants.

Opportunity: UGC funds have created opportunities for new infrastructure and new

career oriented programmes and PG Programmes have opened up new possibilities

Threats: The prevailing loss of value degradation and mushrooming growth of

institutions.

Annexure-Best Practices

BEST PRACTICE

1. Title of the Practice

Skill Development Courses (Formal & Non-formal Mode)

2. Goal

The goal of this practice is to equip the students with certain basic career oriented skills in

their chosen fields of interest so as to make their education, employment and social life

more gainful.

3. Context

The IQAC and the Placement & Career Guidance Cell of the college determine the

regional, national and global market needs of the students and design such programmes that

help in imparting career-oriented/additional skills to the students. These courses have been

added in formal and non-formal mode from time to time realizing the skill development

needs of students for pursuing higher education and gaining employment in India and

abroad. Presently, in addition to other regular UG and PG programmes under the purview

of Panjab University, the college offers UGC funded vocational degree courses (B.Voc-

Banking Insurance & Retail; B.Voc- Multimedia-Animation & Graphics), Career Oriented

Courses (Computer Based Accounting; Biotechnology; Industrial Chemistry; Travel &

Tourism) and short-term Skill Development Courses (non-formal mode: Crash Course in

Use of Internet; Preliminary Course in German language; Preliminary Course in French

Language; Special Coaching Programme for IELTS and TOEFL; Crash Course in

Personality Development and Course in Vermitechnology).

4. The Practice

With an objective of enhancing the knowledge, skill and aptitudes of students for gainful

employment in the wages sector in general and self employment in particular, the UGC

initiated a major programme of vocationalization during VIIIth Plan (1992-1997). this

purpose, the Commission introduced a flexible system of certificate/diploma/advanced

diploma programme, which run parallel to the conventional B.A., B.Com. and B.Sc.

degrees. In order to widen the range of these programmes in related areas and to achieve

the objective of competent-learning for preparing the students of different streams for

absorption in contemporary market and industry, the curriculum for UG Programmes has

been further diversified during the XI Plan with introduction of 03 more Career Oriented

Programmes of Biotechnology, Industrial Chemistry and Travel & Tourism from 2012-

2013. With the seed money of Rs. 27 lac provided by the UGC for these courses, essential

facilities of library, infrastructure and equipment and faculty have been made available to

the students. The institution offers 06 short-term skill development courses in non-formal

mode: Crash Course in Use of Internet; Preliminary Course in German language;

Preliminary Course in French Language; Special Coaching Programme for IELTS and

TOEFL; Crash Course in Personality Development and Course in Vermitechnology.

Students of any stream pursuing UG, PG or Diploma course are free to join one or more of


these courses. The recently added course in Vermitechnology has been started to

disseminate awareness about ecofriendly practices, environmental preservation and impart

technical training on worm-farming and vermicomposting. The courses have been

developed under auspices of the IQAC by joint contribution of Departments of Biology,

Chemistry, Computer Science, Public Administration and English. The course content and

instructional material has been designed to cover both the knowledge and skill components.

Different departments are encouraged to bring forward such innovative ideas of

translational nature. The additional qualifications and experience of the faculty has

provided a supportive platform for launch of such programmes..

5. Evidence of Success

The main evidence of success of this practice lies in the fact that though mentioned as an

optional item in the admission form, this initiative has always received an encouraging

response from the students. More than 250 students have successfully completed the

various Career Oriented Programmes (formal-mode) at Certificate/ Diploma level and 200

students have attended various Short-term Skill Development Courses (non-formal mode)

during the past 04 sessions. The importance of basic computer literacy need not be

emphasized here. Use of computers and Internet has become a commonplace of everyday

life. The basic practical tips provided through the language courses have helped the

students to qualify IELTS and Embassy interviews for joining higher education courses

abroad. After having initial training at the college, some of the rural area students have

successfully started vermicomposting practice at home. A constructive change can be

easily gazed in the general attitude, involvement, confidence and communication of the

students attending Personality Development Course. Students are encouraged to join these

courses not only for instant gains but for subsequent benefits after the completion of their

UG/PG courses. Regarding these non-formal mode courses, we have always received a

positive feedback from the pass-out students whenever they happen to visit their alma

mater.

6. Problems Encountered & Resources Required

The non-availability of vacant time-slots particularly for science students of these formal

and non-formal mode courses is the major problem faced while executing the intended

modules. In order to provide the required contact hours, classes are also held in the ‘Zero

Period’. This sort of time-table arrangement poses problems to the students commuting

daily from distant places.

BEST PRACTICE


1. Title of the Practice

Emphasis on Extra-curricular Activities for Holistic Development

2. Goal

The goal of this practice is to supplement the main curriculum through extra-curricular

activities aimed at the emotional, physical, moral, aesthetic, cultural and spiritual

development of the students besides inculcating the qualities of presentation, leadership,

organization and competition.

3. Context

An ‘A.S. Graduate’ should be knowledgeable and Skilled, Creative and Communicative,

Virtuous and Considerate, Aware and Socially Responsible. In order to ensure parallel

growth of these graduate attributes, the institution is committed to undertake a diverse

range of co-curricular activities and initiatives besides the other mainstream academic

activities.

4. The Practice

In order to achieve the aims and objectives of this practice, special committees are

constituted in the beginning of each academic session. These include: Sports Council,

Youth services Club, Department of Cultural Affairs, Red Cross Committee, Red Ribbon

Club, Yoga & Health club, Anti Narcotic Club etc. All these bodies track of the co-

curricular events being organized by the institution as well as the other institutions,

University and Govt. Departments. The major events are duly mentioned in the proposed

Annual Activity Calendar of the institution. The students are timely informed about these

events by circulating notices/ brochures highlighting the details of these events. The

spectrum of extra-curricular activities for the students includes: sports events and youth &

heritage festival NSS activities, NCC activities, Yoga, public speaking etc.

The Department of Physical Education organizes intramural sports competitions in the

college for ensuring mass participation of students. Students are trained for participation in

university and inter-university level. The Department also organizes two days Annual

Athletic Meet of the college in which hundreds of students from different disciplines

participate in various athletic, throw and gymkhana events. The institution is well equipped

with the necessary infra-structural facilities (playgrounds, stadium, sports equipment etc.)

to carry out these sports activities. The Indoor facilities like gym, carom-board, chess,

table-tennis, badminton etc. and out-door games like volleyball, basketball, cricket, kabaddi

etc. are provided to the students almost throughout the year. The Department of Cultural

Affairs organizes various talent hunt events for selecting the students for final participation

in the zonal, inter-zonal and national level festivals. There exist ample facilities (an

improvised Open Air Theatre, Vare-Shah-Museum, Music Room, Home Theatre, DVD

Player, Musical Instruments, Bhangra Kit, Main Auditorium, sound systems etc.) for

preparing and cultural activities and organizing college/ zonal/inter-zonal level festivals. In

addition to sports and cultural events, the NSS Units, NCC Units, Red Cross Committee,

Yoga & Health Club, and different Departmental Societies/Clubs also organize a variety of

extra-curricular programmes such as photography competition, poster making competition,

field excursions, NSS Camps, video shows etc. for students and faculty members. A large

number of members of the Alumni Association, village Panchayats, Municipal


Committees, and other leaders of the community are invited to all cultural and sports

functions of the college.

5. Evidence of Success

Through our systematic efforts, we have been quite successful in achieving the twin goals

of inculcating a value system and reaping a rich harvest of prizes/positions at inter-college

and inter-university level in various sports and cultural events. Our students have been

adjudged as the Best NCC Cadets and NSS Volunteers at NCC/NSS/ Youth Leadership

Camps held at different places. These activities being organized one after the other are

helpful in maintaining a highly energetic and inspiring campus atmosphere throughout the

academic session. Our NSS volunteers, NCC cadets, sportspersons and other distinguished

students are capable of playing a pivotal role during a number of events organized by the

college.

6. Problems Encountered & Resources Required

The College caters the educational needs of students coming from a large number of

villages. More than 50% of the students enrolled in different UG and PG courses are from

rural area. Most of them have to a spend a good deal of time in daily commuting. Many of

them do help their parents in agriculture and other occupations, and hence are left with a

little time to sharpen their extra-curricular interests. We are hopeful to construct a students’

hostel in near future. And this step will go a long way in promoting extra-curricular activity
