Dr. Abha Singh is in Mauritius under CSIR Award.

The college has an International Office which takes care of international linkages, collaborative research projects & Exchange programmes.

EVALUATION

The Evaluation process comprises of two tier system (under M.U.

Rules):

(i) Internal evaluation by the departments and

(ii) University examinations and evaluation by external examiner.

Formative assessment adopted by colleges include seminar presentation by the students, group

discussions, assignments, extension works minor research projects and Summative assessment include internal exams and university exams.

There is a well established mechanism for redressing student

grievances related to evaluation:-

(i) In case of dissatisfaction with marks obtained or discrepancies in the

marksheet, a student can apply for redressal

(ii) The application with relevant documents is forwarded by the college to

the university and the university looks into grievances and takes final

decision.

through Advisory committee, Head Assistant etc send their requirements. After approval of the Principal as per priority, these are placed before Development and Building committee, Purchase Committee, Vocational Committee. After approval of these committees, work orders / supply order are issued by the Principal.

Regular maintenance is carried through the funds generated through internal resources or the funds received by funding agencies for these purpose.

For minor instrumentations, calibrations and precision measures are taken regulatory by the teachers of the practical departments in accordance with Standard Operating Procedure (SOP).

For calibration, precision measures and maintenance of high end instruments, outside expert agencies / supplier of the instruments are given AMC for maintenance.

The college has 4 big Generators for power back-up.

In order to protect the sensitive

equipment to be damaged by

voltage fluctuation, sudden

interruption of power, and to

ensure constant supply of water,

the major steps taken by the

college are:

(i) Installation of Main Circuit

Breakers (MCBs) on line

Uninterrupted Power supply

(UPS) systems etc.

(ii) The college has 10 tube-wells to

ensure constant water supply.

All buildings have water tanks

on their roofs by which constant

water supply is ensured with the

campus of the college.

BUDGET ALLOCATION FOR

MAINTENANCE

Almost all departments have ICT facilities for teaching. These departments have been provided with computers and projectors or community computer cum projector called K-Yan. Teachers and students are encouraged to use ICT facilities and they make use of these.

Based on experiences and expenditures incurred on maintenance in the past, the college makes a tentative allocation from the available financial resources.
