5.1 Contribution of IQAC in enhancing awareness about Student Support System

IQAC is continuously contributing significantly and efficiently in institutionalizing the quality

assurance process by covering different facets of academic as well as welfare initiatives of the

University. Students from SC, ST, OBC and physically challenged are guided and encouraged to

apply for scholarships as per State Govt., Central Govt. norms. Students from economically

backward section are extended financial assistance through full- and half-free etc. University has

a structured mechanism for student’s welfare and placement cell. Students of final year are

encouraged to approach for different fellowships announced by UGC, CSIR and other agencies.

IQAC periodically reviews the teaching-learning process and discusses the matter with the HoDs

in its meeting. Faculty members are given necessary instructions for improvement in their

performance and their suggestions for the quality enhancement and implementation.

Accordingly faculty members are requested to take care of the slow learners to arrange extra

classes and remedial coaching classes for them. This is a continuous process monitored by the

IQAC. Students are encouraged and guided for national level tests such as NET/SET, Civil

Services etc. They are encouraged to participate and present their dissertation works through

posters and paper presentation in various conferences and seminars.

31 | P a g e

Annexure: 5

5.2 Efforts made by the Institution for tracking the progression

IQAC keeps keen watch on the tracking / keeping records of students’ progression. Serious note

is taken by the teachers in respective departments about the knack and proficiency of the

students and accordingly suggestion is given to them at the time choice of special/optional

papers. Often this choice has proved crucial to them regarding their further academic or other

career pursuits. Teachers often partake in free and frank discussion with students in order to

know their academic and personal problems, problems regarding choice of appropriate career

options, development of soft and communicative skill, etc. Prospective students are also often

given recommendations by their teachers for applying to renowned institutions abroad or within

the country for further academic/other career pursuits. Again, the University follows the

guidelines of the UGC very meticulously with regard to implementation of student-counselling

for NET/SET examinations. Apart from this the names of top graded students in some of the past

years are searched in the internet and this often helps track down their present occupations or

status.

6.3.2 Teaching and Learning:

Teaching in the departments is mostly performed by regular faculties, inter-departmental faculty,

visiting professors and invited speakers. Departments also take care of imparting improved

qualitative and interactive knowledge to the students by arranging invited lectures by external

experts in different fields, participatory workshops, seminars, and laboratory/ field based project

works. Other than conventional methods (chalk board/white board) teaching is performed in

many departments through adoption of e-content, digital method (ppt) or smart board. In some

cases there is the practice of conducting socio-economic survey by students and group report

writing which is assessed by teachers as a part of their examination. Students are also provided

coaching for NET/SET examination and tutorial classes are arranged for slow learners.

Interested students are also motivated to pursue a variety of co-curricular activities such as NSS,

outdoor games, recitation/singing competition, drama etc. They are also exposed to a number of

social benefit programmes by organising camps on blood donation, Health Awareness, Tree

Plantation Programmes, Pulse Polio Immunization Awareness Programmes, Anti-drug Rally,

Cleanliness in campus etc. The programme ‘Earn while you learn’ has also attracted the students

to contribute their labour during the period of their study.

The University maintains the total number of teaching days as per UGC norms. Teachers are

very particular and sincere in finishing their syllabus within the stipulated time period of each

semester. All the teachers update their knowledge through participation in various state, national,

international level seminars and conferences, workshops, training programmes etc. The

INFLIBNET Centre helps the teachers, researchers and students in their advanced studies.

LAN/WI-FI connectivity has been introduced in various administrative departments/sections of

the University and fibre optic connectivity has been upgraded by 50 micron multimode.

Students have been instrumental in giving their feedback on the status of teaching in different

departments which is monitored by an apex body constituted by the Vice-Chancellor of the

University. The new recruitment of teachers has enhanced the faculty base in a number of

departments and this has improved the teaching learning process.

There is a three tier administrative system for smooth running and controlling the examination

process. The controller’s department bears this responsibility through three layers of

administration headed in order by Controller, Deputy Controller and Assistant Controller.

There is the provision of Under Graduate (UG) and Post Graduate (PG) board of studies in each

department which are in direct touch with the controllers’ department.

The examination system in UG level is run in three parts. Before the start of the examination

process the UG board of studies in a meeting sets the lists of question setters, moderators and

examiners on the basis of their expertise and experience. It is an elaborate process as it involves

the completion of examination of more than one lakh candidates and evaluation of their scripts.

The question papers are reviewed and moderated by the subject examination committee to

ensure that the guidelines are not transgressed and standard is maintained. In post-graduate

examinations question papers are furnished by external examiners as well.

Spot assessment of answer scripts is followed in all the Final(Part–III) UG Examinations

including Professional Courses. This enables quick publication of results [Final results are

published within a month (approx.)]. As a result, UG (Hons.) qualified candidates enjoy the

advantage of exploring the admission possibilities in different universities without lapse of any

year. Spot assessment system is also followed to review the answer scripts of all the UG

Examinations for quick publication of results after reassessment of scripts. The entire UG

examination scripts evaluation process is conducted in a set up of head examiners for specific

papers, who bear the responsibility of collecting the marks from examiners (under their

supervision) in time and submit the collated the marks to the controller within the stipulated

time.

Credit system in subject(s)/ Group of subjects is retained for three consecutive years from the

original year of enrolment of all U.G. examinations. However, as per revised regulations, a

candidate (regular/external) shall have to complete Part-I, Part-II and Part-III Honours/General

B.A./B.Sc./B.Com. Examination within 7 (seven) years including his/her original enrolment in

Part-I Examination subject to the condition that not more than 3 consecutive chances shall be

(b) Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) of Examinations with grading system has

also been implemented in M.A./M.Sc./M.Com. levels.

The examination system is proved neutral by the involvement of external experts at the stages of

question setting and moderation. At present however, only full internal checking of the scripts is

in practice in order to facilitate speedy publication of results. This has been introduced for taking

care of subsequent job pursuits /higher studies by the P.G students.

(iii) Internal Assessment is being followed in all the Professional Courses such as B.B.A.,

B.C.A., Bio-technology, M.B.A., M.C.A., M.C.T. etc., and also in the

M.A./M.Sc./M.Com. Examinations (Semester System).

(iv) Submission and examination of Project work, Dissertation submission along with

viva-voce test are conducted in U.G./P.G. Professional courses and in some of the

M.A./M. Sc. Subjects such as in Sociology, Economics, Mass Communication and in

all subjects of M.Phil. Courses of studies

(v) (a) Computerised Admit Cards are issued before the examinations and Computerised

mark sheets in all the examinations are issued after publication of results.

(b)Provisional Certificates are issued after the publication of results.

(c)Original Computerised Diploma/Certificates affixing hologram and with

6.14 Initiatives taken by the institution to make the campus eco-friendly:

Reclamation drive has been completed in the entire water body surrounding the Golapbag

campus, through increasing their depth, removing the hyacinths and cleaning the adjoining

areas. This will enhance their water holding capacity, prevent siltation as well as enable

improved pisciculture. An orchard has been created by planting saplings of mango and other

variety of fruits along the area beside the reclaimed water body. Further plants of different

variety of flowers are being nurtured in the farmhouse. Saplings planted along the banks of

waterbodies inside the campus are being taken care on a regular basis. Unwanted growth of

water hyacinths are being cleaned on a regular basis.

The dustbins located at regular distances inside the campus have contributed to reduce the trash

material littered outside. Toilet facility in different buildings has been extended. Ground work

has been made to undertake organic farming operation on a commercial basis. The electric

cables have been placed underground and the entire Golapbag campus has been decorated with

lamps. Efforts are afoot to make two big water reservoirs in Golapbag and Tarabag campus

functionally operative. Eco-friendly generators in front of different departments/buildings have

been installed and this has reduced the emission of toxic gases. “No-smoking” notice boards

have been placed at certain important locations in the University premises. Periodic dusting and

spraying in the library book shelves is also undertaken. A long stretch of wall has been erected at

46 | P a g e

certain vulnerable portion of the residential campus area which would thwart nuisance activity

by outsiders around the water bodies. Again efforts are continued to culture organic farming on a

commercial basis in the University farm area to cater to the health issues of the people residing

in and around the campus. Statues of greatly renowned personalities of Bengal in yesteryears

have been installed at the entrance of the university as well as in front of some of the academic

buildings with a great artistic sense and these have enhanced the academic aura of the

University.

Annexure: 22

7.1 Innovations introduced during this academic year which have created a positive impact

on the functioning of the institution. Give details:

A number of innovative drives in the academic and infrastructural field have been introduced by

the university. The concerned departments have been motivated to implement these drives.

Top graded students are encouraged to pursue academic careers through participation in various

research activities of the departments in the capacity of project fellow or research assistant. They

are encouraged to provide seminars on a regular basis in order to enhance their power of

expression. Students admitted in interdisciplinary courses are encouraged to pursue their project

/dissertation work in different depts. that suit their interest. In some departments where the

syllabus contains project based papers, a practice of giving awards to best three reports has been

introduced. This is supposed to inculcate a spirit of competition and achieving excellence,

among the students. Frequent student-teacher interaction session already introduced, is

continuing and it helps in identifying the expectations and aspirations and problems of students.

This also helps in reorienting the syllabus and modifying the teaching-learning process. In case

of science departments students are guided to cope up with the advanced instruments before their

allotment to the respective practical experiment in different semesters. In certain cases,

departments arrange field visits on regular basis; industry visit in some cases is an essential part

of the syllabus which helps the students to have a direct interaction with the Industry. Visits by

students to small/medium industrial enterprises in the nearby localities have been promoted to

inculcate in them a spirit of entrepreneurship and enabling them to understand the strengths and

weaknesses of operating these types of enterprises. Characterization of the industrial effluents,

sewage and different water sources, noise sources has been taken as social awareness

programmes. Participation in outreach programmes for motivation of college/school students in

their concerned subjects is worthy to mention.

47 | P a g e

Foreign Language

Instead of adopting rigidly any particular method, we modify ourteaching methods after taking into consideration the diversity of thelearning methods and needs of the learners. We try to follow thecommunicative method for all levels. But sometimes we have recourseto the traditional grammar translation method. Sometimes we try tostrike a balance between the modern and traditional teaching methods.However this variation in teaching method does in no way imply anycompromise with the quality of teaching.In the class we organize a series of recreational activities like role play,simulations, group discussions, which help the learners overcome their

79 | P a g e

inhibitions and communicate freely. We see to it that the learners canapply the vocabulary, expressions and syntactic structures learnt in classin the proposed situations of communication. Apart from these activitiesin class we regularly give the students home assignments. On the basisof an in depth study of the errors committed in such assignments, weframe new written or oral exercises.

EducationGroup discussion, demonstration method, PPT presentation, Field work,assignments etc.


Foreign Language

Usually we follow the communicative method for all levels. Howeverwe are ready to modify our methods according to the composition of thegroups and individual needs. Sometimes we have recourse to thetraditional grammar translation method. Sometimes we try to strike abalance between the modern and traditional teaching methods. Howeverthis variation in teaching method does in no way imply any compromisewith the quality of teaching. Our objective always remains the same i.e.to help the learners develop the four linguistic skills namely oralcomprehension, written comprehension, oral expression and writtenexpression. But instead of adopting rigidly any particular method, wemodify our teaching methods after taking into consideration thediversity of the learning methods of the learners.We constantly strive to build up and maintain a congenial atmosphere inthe classroom so that the learner feels free to express his/her ideas andcommunicate with his/her fellow learners. By organizing a series ofrecreational activities like role play, simulations, group discussions, wetry to help them overcome their inhibitions. We see to it that thelearners can apply the vocabulary, expressions and syntactic structureslearnt in class in the proposed situations of communication. We ensurethat even the most shy learners get an opportunity to communicate. Weattach equal importance to writing particularly creative writing. Apartfrom these activities in class we regularly give the students homeassignments. On the basis of an in depth study of the errors committedin such assignments, we frame new written or oral exercises.

Business Administration** effort towards collaborative research work** use of better audio-visual and case study based teaching


i) Updated and comprehensive study material provided tostudentsii) Topics invited from students and these are covered in theclass (especially the ones that have contemporaryrelevance).

Commerce

i) For long, department has been trying to offer its studentshomely atmosphere so that the students can communicatefreely before the teachers. This is considered to be of muchhelp for imparting education particularly at this level ofeducation. With this end in view, in a year two/three socialprogrammes are organized in the department in whichstudents play the role of organizers. This allows thedepartment to manage the educational activities in adisciplined manner.ii) For an institute of higher learning like university, one ofthe main functions is to encourage serious research works.Over the decades, the department has been trying to pursuethis goal. Every year good number of scholars earn Ph. Ddegree of this university under the able guidance of theteachers of this department. Their presence at thenational/international levels as authors as well asresearchers can speak in favour their contributions.Department has a long history to undertake research studiesin the emerging areas of knowledge in commerce andmanagement. Presently, three major/minor research projectsare running which seek to address issues like sustainabilityreporting, inclusive growth etc.

220 | P a g e

start Master in Tourism Administration (MTA)programme.

b) Weaknesses

i) Infrastructure is real problem area of thedepartment. Inadequacy of class rooms, toilets,laboratories etc. deter the day to day functioning ofthe department.

ii) Proliferation of business schools in West Bengal hasa negative bearing on the number of applicants inthe MBA program.. Indeed, the number ofapplicants has drastically reduced in last few years.

iii) Absence of a full time placement officer has beenseriously retarding the placement activities of thedepartment.

c) Opportunities

i) Geographical location of the department is such thatit is able to cater to management education to bothrural and urban semi urban centric students.

ii) Because of the presence in the vicinity of industrialarea, close interaction between industry andacademia can be developed. This will facilitateinternship, managerial development and placementof the students.

iii) Because, of its long existence and heritage, thedepartment can invite nationally and internationallyacclaimed visiting faculties to come here andenlighten the students with their valuableknowledge and experience.

d) Challenges

i) In view of proliferation of management institutes inthe vicinity of Burdwan and adjoining districts,drawing a large pool of MBA aspirants to ourdepartments has become a serious challenge.

ii) Revival of the industry academia interface at theright earnest has emerged as a serious challenge toboost a professional department like ours.

iii) Overcoming the paucity of fund been apportionedfor the department is the bottle neck for theinfrastructural development.

ii. Teachers’ involvement in a number of projectsiii. Enhanced earning prospects by pass-out students by

taking part in diverse projects.iv. A cordial relationship among teachers and students

b) Weaknessi. Lack of adequate infrastructural facilities

ii. Lack of a skilled computer trained technical staff in theDept.

iii. Lack of adequate books/journalsfor PG & PhD students

c) Opportunityi. The syllabus is so designed that each student can have

knowledge of different optional papers. This introducesflexibility and the students can have a greater access tojobs where such specialisations are required.

ii. Established expertise of the teachers in department inundertaking different project works. This can beadvertised through the website for attracting consultancybased assignments from different agencies.

iii. Students associated with different projects in the dept,can apply for participation in different nationalworkshop /conferences, on the basis of theircollaborative writing /experience certificate. Thisenhances their CV.

iv. Every year national/international conferences are heldby the Dept. Participants from different states in Indiaand sometimes from abroad come to attend theseconferences. This has widened the reputation andcredibility of the Dept as an established seat of learningand knowledge. Better quality students from otheruniversities are also getting interested to take admissionin our Dept.

d) Challengei. Imparting better and improved quality teaching

EducationEnglish & Culture Studies

Foreign Language i) Ours is the only University Department in West Bengalwhere Advanced Diploma Courses are offered in Foreign

223 | P a g e

Languages .ii) Although usually the majority of learners of thisdepartment belong to the student community of theUniversity of Burdwan, we very often have learners fromother walks of life and of different age groups. Students ofthis department include doctors, engineers, teachers,businessmen, people of several other professions as wellas retired persons. The heterogeneous composition of thegroups makes teaching and learning all the moreinteresting.iii) The atmosphere here is very cordial. Any languageclass calls for a lot of interaction between the teacher andthe taught. Here the teachers always maintain individualcontact with the students. The students feel free toapproach the teachers with their queries (personal orcollective) outside the class

Weaknessi) The weakest point of this department (and this is true forall Universities in the eastern regions offering foreignlanguage courses ) is the high rate of dropouts. Many of thestudents discontinue, not because of lack of interest in thelanguages but due to circumstances that are beyond thecontrol of the department. Many of the students preparingfor their examinations (University Examinations or othercompetitive examinations) cannot devote the necessary timefor learning a foreign language and therefore have todiscontinue despite their earnest desire to learn thelanguage. The same is true for people engaged in otherprofessions.

c) Opportunityi) As mentioned above faculty members of the

department have a chance to serve people coming fromdifferent professions and of different age groups.d) Challengesi) The greatest challenge for us is to reduce the number ofdrop outs.ii) We also need to create awareness among the potentiallearners about the advantages of learning a foreign language
