FOREWORD

It is a rare opportunity to submit the Self-Study Report (SSR) of Prananath College (Autonomous) for ratification by National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC). This is an exercise in documenting a clear picture of this institution which had been accreditated in the 1st Cycle at level ‘A’ for which we are highly indebted to NAAC. This college is among the premier Aided colleges of the state and has been involved in policy modification at the state level.

The NAAC has empowered us by giving an extremely detailed tool for self examination and in this context our teams have tried their best to document the achievements of the institution. We take this opportunity to be assessed by the NAAC while reiterating our commitment to greater human values through institutional strength.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Writing of Self-Study Report is basically a deep study of the strength and the weaknesses of an institution. This study leads the stakeholders to realize the innate strength which sometimes stays unrealized and work on the weakness to be redressed. SSR for the cycle 2 holds special importance because of the structure already determined during the earlier cycle.

Prananath College (Autonomous) – accredited A by NAAC and awarded CPE (Centre with Potential for Excellence) by UGC, is a destination for learners from all parts of Odisha and the contiguous states. Taking the available resources and policies into consideration, this 57 year old college has emerged from extremely humble beginnings to a burgeoning institution spreading quality education steeped in values and enabling employability to its students. The single minded effort of Late Prananath Pattnaik and his team of Freedom Fighters put up with all adversities to establish this college in 1959.

In this long journey of 57 years the college has added Under Graduate classes in Science, Humanities and Commerce. With a mere 64 students and 07 members of faculty in 1959 the college started its voyage. It began its operation with Psychology, Political Science, History and Economics in 1960’s. English, Education, Philosophy, Commerce, Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Biological Sciences began in the early 70’s. Subjects like Electronics, Geography, M.Sc. Computer Science and M.A. in PM & IR were opened in 2009-10. Geology, B.Sc. Computer Science, BBA and Sanskrit were introduced during the years 2010-15. At present, the college has grown to a strength of 3812 students and 125 members of faculty. This growth of almost 50 times in 57 years can be attributed to enhancement in infrastructure, creation of faculty positions and opening of new subject options. The college has submitted application for Post Graduate programs in Rural Development, Education and Commerce in 2013, which are yet to be approved. Applications for MFC, MJMC, Honours in Anthropology, Sociology and Home Science have also been submitted. Keeping in mind the national priority, the college has also applied to open B.Voc. Courses and has submitted a proposal to the Government to leverage it into a University.

Emerging out of a rural background, the college has taken great strides in gross enrollment of students of the area. This factor has also encouraged us to fine tune the syllabi to suit local needs.

The greatest strength of the college is its members of faculty. With 125 members of teaching staff and an equal number of support staff, this college commits itself to the overall growth of its students. Members of faculty are part of various professional, academic and cultural bodies like IIPA, AIR, SAMS society, SRCs, Curriculum Committees and Boards of Studies etc.

The community stakeholders form another pillar of strength for the college. A Government approved Governing Body (Managing Committee) looks after the administrative needs of the college. This 13 member body has in it representatives of all segments of the society. Local appointments, sanction of earned leave, disciplinary proceedings, infrastructural investments, legal aspects and performance appraisals of staff are some of the basic duties of the Managing Committee.


Planning of curricula is done by the Academic Committee in sync with UGC norms. Flexibility is offered in terms of choice of subjects. With the introduction of CBCS, the choice base has expanded. Impact of curricula is monitored through feedback from all stakeholders.

Admission of students is regulated by a state-wide network called Students Academic Management System (SAMS). Apart from statutory reservations, SAMS also accommodates diversity by encouraging students from nearby states. The college on its own offers concessional admission fees to girl students, students from the scheduled castes/ tribes, SEBC and sports persons. The total number of beneficiaries is 3085 in the UG classes.

The quality and availability of teachers in the college is enviable. The motivation level of all faculty members forms the core of the teaching-learning process. The academic cycle culminates in a two–tier evaluation process of the scripts which are coded. The success rate has been consistently above 90%. Learning outcomes are reviewed in year-end staff meetings and subsequent placements.

The percentage of success of our students has been rising in the last few years on account of intensive teaching and academic support to weaker learners. The pass percentage in Arts is 92 with 66.2% in first class, in Science it is 92 with 88.37 % in first class and in Commerce it has been 97%. In the Post Graduate Section of M.Sc. (Comp. Sc.) and PG in PMIR the success rate is almost 100%. Apart from the academic commitments our students excel in various socio-cultural forums like – Sports Clubs, Voluntary Organizations, Martial Art Clubs, Dance and Music and Heritage Preservation initiatives.

An environment of encouraging new learning is ensured through research, seminars and workshops. Members of faculty on active research are around 40% and funding for these activities is done principally from UGC and CPE grants. IT infrastructure and examiner remunerations for project activities of students are provided by the college. With more than 1000 student projects every year, it involves all members of faculty as well as external examiners. Research infrastructure is provided in the form of a well stocked library with INFLIBNET, laboratories with some advance equipments, a Resource Centre and able peer guidance. Apart from the in-house ISBN numbered research journal MANJARI, members of faculty have wide publication records to the tune of around 300. Departments of Commerce and Odia have their own journals.

Along with academic commitments, the college has a diverse group of near about 15% students actively involved in extension activities and volunteering. In various aspects of institutional life we are proud to partner with various organizations like Lions’ club, Rotary club, different Voluntary Agencies, Research Institutes and Industries. The extended campus of 75 acres has a total built-up area of 12488.92 sq. mtrs, 355.11 sq. mtrs of Library, 1098.97 sq. mtrs of Laboratories, 2531.78 sq mtrs. of Class Rooms, 4336.71 sq. mtrs. of Office/ Establishment and 4166.35 sq. mtrs of Hostel Building which constitute the physical infrastructure. Construction of Indoor Stadium is under progress inside the campus. While one ladies hostel already has roof top solar panels, the college is planning to install solar panels in collaboration with OREDA on most of the rooftops. An MOU with CPWD has resulted in the beginning of construction of a 4645 sq. mtrs building to be used for academics and research. A


Second boys hostel is at the drawing-board level. Existing hostels accommodate near about 400 boarders.

Power is ensured through three utility supply lines and two 40 KVA and 20KVA DG sets. Two leased lines for internet connectivity, a LAN and 86 Computer systems look after the IT needs. A holding of 63360 books, 43 Journals 500 CD’s and an INFLIBNET subscription form the main intellectual infrastructure. The college uses IT in all sections and cells like Admission, Examination, Accounts, Library, Students’ Union and in teaching and learning. Dedicated teams are assigned to maintain various infrastructural facilities.

The college has an effective system of mentoring through teachers assigned at the departmental level. The proctorial system is a support mechanism of mentoring. All members of faculty have 36 students on an average as mentees. Cell phone numbers and e-mail IDs of mentors-mentees are shared. Counseling and academic mentoring are done both in the departments and by the counseling cell. Students are alerted about such activities through short messaging service.The communication lab is the hub of counseling and training. The college website and the calendar contain details of all activities in the college.

Around 2120 students have benefitted from concession and free ships offered by the Managing Committee and the Principal. The percentage of students getting government scholarships is more than 25%. Almost 41.5% of our students are from the scheduled castes/ tribes, backward classes, minorities and persons with disability. Each one of these students is given adequate support by the college. Five annual magazines are dedicated to students’ creativity apart from Wall Magazines in the departments. Almost 500 students participate in 33 categories of sports/ games and a similar number in volunteer activities like NCC, NSS, YRC, Rovers and Rangers, Eco-Club, Quality Volunteers and Students Union activities. The Training and Placement cell has been able to train more than 1000 students and find placements for more than 10% of the general undergraduates. The professional courses like M.Sc (Comp. Sc.) and PG (PMIR) have found 100% placement. The Alumni Association is a vital link in placement of students.

Apart from academic activities, the college ensures cohesion of all stakeholders through cultural and memorial functions spread through the year. College Commemoration Day ( 28th Jan), Smruti (3rd/ 4th April), Prananath Jayanti and State level music competition ( 16th / 17th November), Annual Alumni Meet (27th/28th Jan.) and Students Union function are the occasions leading to assertion of the mission of the institution. The built-in mechanism of fostering leadership among staff and students takes place through mentoring and strategy of assigning clear job-roles. Probably because of the cohesion of the institutional family that the various grievance redressal cells like gender, ragging, staff etc. have hardly got any complaints though there is a robust mechanism in place. Added to these there are many welfare measures for non-teaching staff. As a recent 2015 Ernst and Young-World Bank study has pointed out, Prananath College (Auto) is at the very top of income-expenditure graph. All spheres of the institution including its governance get input from the IQAC ensuring quality benchmarks.

While teaching-learning, cultural activities, and training-placement are the main planks of institutional growth, the college has a unique advantage in terms of its geo-physical location. The Barunei hills form the ecological background of the campus. Soon after the devastation caused by successive cyclonic storms in 2011 and


2013, a conscious decision was taken to go for massive plantation and this drive covered 10 acres in two patches over and above the yearly event called Vanamohatsav in July every year. The Social Forestry Dept. of the government collaborated with the college to tend the saplings while protection is provided by the college. A solar photovoltaic array has been installed atop the JJR ladies hostel and fly-ash bricks are being used for all constructions in campus.

This college is committed to excellence in all vertices of its activities. In this regard practices like institution of Gold Medals for best graduates by members of faculty, inclusion of students in statutory and functional cells, felicitation to eminent alumni and creation of a team of Quality Volunteers go a long way to create a special niche for itself. We got accreditation of NAAC in 2006 at the ‘A’ level. Emerging from a semi-urban location, committed to enhance factors like gender equity and students from the socially and economically disadvantaged classes. We have undertaken this journey for the the last 57 years despite adversities. We hope to emerge as an even stronger hub of education with a positive and encouraging accreditation report from the honoured peer team.

SWOC


ANALYSIS

The college has evolved on the basis of its historical roots starting in 1959. It

has grown to its present status on the strength of community support, consistent

performance and clear commitment to 360⁰ learning. However the weaknesses of the

college cannot be ignored while the world around us is changing fast, in terms of all

round development of students, teachers and the organization. The college has missed

out to certain extent due to the perceived weaknesses. Introduction of need based

courses, skill sets and training of teachers, welfare of the students and above all,

penetration of technology are some of the grey areas. Factors which clearly offer

opportunities are the possibility of talent and infrastructure optimization, availability

of academic, industrial and socio-political support. The threats which loom large on

the advancement of the college can be issues like obsolescence of the curricula and

teaching methods, official impediments, irrational teacher transfer and uncontrolled

growth of teaching shops resulting in loss of student focus.

ii. PRANANATH SANGEET SAMMAN for contribution to the field of music

iii. MANJARI DEVI SAHITYA SAMMAN for contribution to the field of Literature

2. Objectives of the Practice

What are the objectives / intended outcomes of this “best practice” and what are the underlying principles or concepts of this practice (in about 100 words)?

i. Prananath Samman : In order to perpetuate the memory of Late Prananath Patnaik & his ceaseless quest for liberty & excellence an award with cash prize of Rs.10,000/- and shawl & citation has been instituted in recognition of exceptional contribution to the society by the recipient.

A wholesome person with healthy mind is invariably aesthetically sensitive, exceptional achievers in these fields are commended with the institution of this prize in the memory of Late Manjari Devi, the committed spouse of Late Prananath Patnaik.

3. The Context

What were the contextual features or challenging issues that needed to be addressed in designing and implementing this practice (in about 150 words)?

Institution of Prananath & Manjari Devi Samman targeted recognition of extraordinary contribution to the social good. By such a recognition the college is also honoured in the sense that eminence is recognized by an institution aspiring to be eminent. The commitment & the efforts of the college in shaping the lives of the youth is appreciated by the society when recognized persons are honoured.

4. The Practice

Describe the practice and its uniqueness in the context of India higher


education. What were the constraints / limitations, if any, faced (in about 400 words)?

The practice of recognizing eminence in the social sector and in the areas of music and literature is unique in the context of Indian Higher Education in the sense that almost no other institution follows such a practice. A college which has celebrated its Golden Jubilee in 2010-2011, aspires to a place of eminence in the state and the nation. A panel of eminent members functions as a jury to identify the deserving personalities to be honoured. The honour is bestowed by the college through the Chief Guest on its Commemoration Day on 28th January every year. i) Padmashree Tulasi Munda, ii)Prof. Baidyanath Mishra, iii) Padmabhusan Dr. Ramakanta Panda iv) Sri Shantanu Mohapatra, v) Sri Pranab Patnaik, vi) Padmashree Prafulla Kar, vii) Padmabhusan Sri Manoj Das, viii) Prof. Jayanta Mohapatra, ix) Padmabibhusan Pandit Hari Prasad Chourasia are some of the recipients of these awards.

a) Prananath Samman is dedicated to recognition of eminence and this is funded by the Managing Committee of the college. A three member committee constituted of three senior member of staff recommends the names. After approval of the Managing Committee, the Administrative Bursar oversees the functional aspects. The investiture is done on the Commemoration Day i.e 28th January every year.

b) Manjari Devi Sahitya Samman has been instituted by the family of late Prananath Pattanaik to perpetuate the commitment of Manjari Devi towards creative and critical writings of state. It is administered by a trust where members of the Managing Committee find place. The selection is done by a team of three judges on the basis of contribution to literature. This prize is given away as a part of Commemoration Day (28th January) celebration.

c) Prananatn Sangeet Samman: the prize has been instituted by the Managing Committee of the college to honour an eminent personality in the field of music and performing arts. A three member jury from among the Managing Committee members selects the person and the principal of the college invites the awardees. The samman is given away on 16th/17th November every year on the Prananath Jayanti Divas.

Since institutions of higher education reflect the aspiration of the society, it makes eminent sense to see them as centers recognizing talent, excellence and eminence. An institution is judged not only by its academic excellence but also through its appreciation of excellence. In this regard the above honours bring visibility to the college and this is considered to be an integral part of the overall perception of the college.


5. Evidence of Success

Provide evidence of success such as performance against targets and benchmarks, review results. What do these results indicate? Describe in about 200 words.

The college has been recognized within and outside the state as a centre of learning and an institution committed to a holistic development of all its stakeholders. The practice of recognizing excellence has elevated the status of this institution.

Since the focus of these awards is to felicitate eminent persons of the State, it creates a lot of inspiration for the youth.

The focused-initiatives in social outreach have been recognized at state and national level and have brought laurels for the college. Not only has such activities contributed to the profile of the students it has also made them better human beings.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required

Please identify the problems encountered and resources required to implement the practice (in about 150 words).

As such the corpus funds for the state level awards facilitate regular investiture, however, availability of funds does sometime pose constraints in the outreach activities of the college.

Apart from resource mobilization which is dealt with by the managing committee and the trust, the college does not face any challenges in the implementation of the practice.

7. Notes

As has been enumerated above, recognition of eminence brings eminence to the organization itself. In this direction this practice should be encouraged in all institutions of higher learning.


1. Title of the Practice (B) Focused Student Outreach Activities.

2. Objectives of the Practice

In pursuit of the mission of this college which is reflected even in its crest, it has committed itself to perform its role as an agent of change in the society. Recognizing the importance of the commitment to society on part of the students, the college has initiated wings of NCC (Boys), NCC (Girls), YRC, Rangers & Rovers, NSS and Quality Volunteers.

3. The Context

Since the college was to be the only visible institution in the hinterland, and large proportions of its students are rural based, the need to relate to the society was addressed with the introduction of various social service wings.

In the almost 60 years of the life of Prananath College where large proportion of students are from the rural hinterland, the need to relate to the society was felt acutely. Late Prananath Pattanaik, the founder of this institution began the culture of social involvement through the arduous task of collecting funds from door to door in the local area. Every brick of this college carries the memory of the contribution of common people of the area.

As an attempt to repay the society, the college has opened various service wings involving the students. The outreach activities were perceived to be an integral part of institutional life. Apart from social service wings like NSS, Rovers & rangers, Youth Red Cross , NCC (Boys) and NCC (Girls), a unique group of Quality Volunteers has been created in this direction. The Quality Volunteers are mandated to focus on issues of quality in all aspects of institutional activities.

4. The Practice

The activities of the cadets of NCC and members of other social service wings forms a part of life on campus. The commitment & achievements of these young human beings is commendable because they touch the life of the community .These activities prove to be very important aspect in the lives of both the provider and receiver of service. A brigade of 200 young people committed to social good is unique in the context of higher education.

Constraints in the practice of such activities are not insurmountable. The limitation occurs in terms of time for outreach activities in the context of continuous academic assessments.

5. Evidence of Success

While the largest of traditional social service units is common to all HEI’s the largest of introducing quality volunteers is unique in the sense that it involves students in the quality revolution. The volunteers represent the search for


quality in all aspects of institutional life. The administrative process, the academic process and cultural aspects and the social outreach programmes are areas where the Quality Volunteers are mandated to give their feedback. This practice should be implemented in all institutions of higher education.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required

The major constraint is largely theoretical in the sense that quality as a concept is difficult to explain and make acceptable. The difficulty however, has been resolved with the involvement of the members of the IQAC.

7. Notes

The practice of creating an elite team of Quality Volunteers will definitely impact the operation of any institution. The main Philosophy of the IQAC “Conscious, Consistent and Catalytic action” to improve institutional quality of life will be perpetuated if the main stakeholders are roped in as a part of the journey of quality.

Post- accreditation Initiatives

Philosophy as an important subject in the world offers unique chance to the

students to develop their knowledge in interdisciplinary relations and achieve a

coherent knowledge skill. This Department explores the advantage of this kind of

special knowledge and invites the students & also the faculties of other department to

the seminar. This kind of practice allows us to attend the other departmental seminars

.This aim is being successfully achieved by- 1. Collecting seminar papers and

promoting all those to the students and faculties.2. Lunching General awareness

programme on the special field to achieve Socio-ethical manhoods.

Special initiatives are taken under the WiFi Campus to reach at Global

competency through smart class-rooms and e-knowledge centres. Students are trying

to achieve update Research findings not only on interdisciplinary relations but in

fundamental of knowledge on departmental courses. Orientation Programmes, digital

liabrary brings out student connectivity not only in the class but also access

development outside the class. Remedial classes on Honours subjects are organized to

develop capacity of the students through dialogue with the faculty members.Student

performance is a growing factor in the department. The later is observed from the

success of the pass out students in the P.G. level.

The department provides relevant study materials of its own to upgrade the

intake capacity of the students. This also directly involves the development of faculty

members as a matter of innovation. Besides curriculum, special drive is undertaken by

the students to uplift healthy atmosphere through short term connectivity

programmes.


Apart from that the reforms that have been ushered in over the two/three decades have

created the conditions for sustained growth of the teachers of the department. Dr. Mrs.

Mausumi -Kanungo was awarded the Ph.D from Utkal University, Bhubaneswar

whereas, Mrs. Nandita- chhotray was able to submit her Ph.D Thesis for award. It is

estimated that skill development work was acquired in the teachers of the department

by attaining and presenting the papers in the national and international seminars of

different Autonomous colleges and universities in capacity building programmes. A

good number of students were availing the facility in taking admission in P.G.

department of Philosophy of different university inside and outside the state. Some of

the students have got the opportunity by qualifying NET. Another feature is added to

the department by qualifying the facility of the campus T.C.S etc. entering into the

college.

Wish all the success in future with commitment, fairness, honesty and justice

to the students and teachers.

A NOTE ON THE SSR

Going in for the process of 2nd cycle of accreditation by National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) is a continuous process of documenting developments in the institution. The efforts to prepare the Self-study Report began in right earnest after a staff meeting with the Principal in the chair in September 2014. The Prof.-in-charge of UGC section Dr. Brajabandhu Padhiary and Co-ordinator of the SSR steering committee Prof. Sunil Kumar Pattnaik and Prof. Debasish Panda, Coordinator, IQAC led the team and assigned specific job roles to the members. Data collection, data analysis and action taken reports were done with the involvement of all members of staff.

Dr. Ranjita Sethi, Prof. Soumendra Mishra and Dr. Pradeepta Kumar Mohapatra took up the major job of collecting, collating and analysing the inputs from the examination cell, admission cell, accounts section, the administration section and the departments. The endeavour of preparation of the Self-Study Report was led by Dr. Binayak Rath. The assistance of Shri Umakanta Martha, a tireless and enthusiastic member of the team brought the Report to shape. Shri Chandan Muduli also lent his able support in this initiative.

The college acknowledges and appreciates the enthusiastic participation of all members of staff in this endeavour.
