beginning of the year

7.3 Give two Best Practices of the institution (please see the format in the NAAC Self-study Manuals)

The following are the few among so many best practices carried out in the institution.

Best Practice 1

Title of the Practice: Career Orientation Programmes in ‘Aquaculture’, ‘Photoshop’,

‘Analytical instrumentation’, ‘Banking and Finance’,

Goal: To encourage cottage industry and self employment

The context: Students from rural back ground with below poverty line will get awareness

and employability from COPs.

Practice: These courses are funded by the Management (Aqua culture, Photoshop) and

UGC (Instrument analysis, Banking and Finance). A separate time table is prepared and

classes are conducted with the support of the regular and visiting faculty members.

1. Introduced a P.G. Course in Mathematics

2. Introduced the certificate courses in ‘Aquaculture’ and ‘Photoshop’ (Funded by

Management), and ‘Instrument analysis’ and ‘Banking and Finance’ (Funded by UGC)

under Career Orientation Programme

3. Arranged special training classes in communication skills

1. Teachers are asked to prepare and maintain Academic plans and Teaching diaries in

the beginning and are periodically examined and attested by the Head of the

department there after Head of the institution. Internal Academic Audit committee,

working under the influence of IQAC, has been examined the academic activities at

every month and finally submitted the annual report.

2. The plan of action conceived by the IQAC in the beginning of the year has been

successfully initiated among various departments, associations and wings, and

completed accordingly.


Provide the details in annexure (annexure need to be numbered as i, ii, iii)

Evidence of success: Most of the students are self employed and Some started their own

business with the financial support from Banks.

Problems encountered and Resources required: The enrolment of the students towards

COPs is not to the mark. Total financial assistance is required to introduce most attractive

trendy job oriented programmes.

Best Practice 2

Title of the Practice: Celebration of Important days

Goal: To enable the students to have knowledge and outlook on aspects of human life,

and to bring social awareness.

The context: The exposure to the important days would lead the students to excel their

aptitude and inherent skills. They will develop their leadership qualities with decision

making and team spirit. They will become advanced citizens with social responsibility.

Practice: So many important days are celebrated by various wings of the college viz.

Women empowerment cell, Nature club, Youth Red Cross wing, Red ribbon club, NCC,

and NSS. Gust lectures are arranged with eminent personalities in various faculties. Quiz

and elocution competitions are organized for the students. Field visits are also arranged.

1. Independence Day 15th August 2. Teachers’ Day 5th September 3. World AIDS Day 1st December 4. Republic Day 26th January 5. National Science Day 28th February 6. National Defence Day 3rd March 7. International Women’s Day 8th March 8. World Consumers’ Day 15th March 9. National Vaccination Day 16th March 10. World Disabled Day 19th March 11. World Forestry Day 21st March

Evidence of success: Most of the students and staff are satisfied with these celebrations.

They got the opportunity to participate and present their innovative skills and become

skilled at up to date knowledge and ethnicity.

Problems encountered and Resources required: The mobilization of funds to arrange

these celebrations is quite tricky and cumbersome.
