accreditation of the University during the year 2021. There is only two years’ time left

the range of 151–200. Last year also we were placed in the same slab. There was a

contributions and suggestions in preparation of the future roadmap of the University.

a) The Chairman, PG Council: The Chairmanapprisedthe house about the academic

activities being carried out by the PG Council. Apart from the admission process of

regular and self-financing PG, MPhil and PhD programmes, the Council prepares the

academic calendar for the above programmes and caretakes to their strict

adherence.The Council office also receives the research proposals submitted by the

faculty members and forwards them to the authority for onward transmission to the

funding agencies. Meetings of the PG Council are held on regular interval to address

various problems of the departments, distribute funds among the departments, conduct

various seminars and workshops and monitor academic activities of the University.

b) The Director, UGC-HRDC: The Director, University Grants Commission–Human

Resource Development Centre (UGC-HRDC) informed the house that 75% of the

orientation programmes allotted this session have been conducted (i.e. Three out of

teachers’ meet, both the programmes together trained 166 teachers in HRDC. In

addition, the Centre has conducted classes on Research Methodology for MPhil and PhD

scholars. Besides, one programme has also been inducted under OHEPEE funded by

World Bank. Above all, the UGC-HRD Centre, Sambalpur University has been recognised

as a National Teachers’ Training Centre which is one among the Thirty National Resource

Centres of the country. The centre also organised an academic meeting for the NAAC

team comprising dignitaries of reputed academic institutions from inside as well as

outside Odisha.

The HRDC have been trying to be more vibrant each year for the academic concern of

the University and the region as a whole. The Centre has received Twenty-Four

programmes this year and the Director has taken prompt initiative to upload the notice

in the University website within six hours.

At the end, the Director requested all the HODs present and the Principals of Colleges

through the august house to encourage the faculty members in their

Departments/Colleges by relieving them to attend Orientation Programme(s) and

Refresher Course(s) as the criteria for minimum number of participants to run a

5

minimum size to Twenty.

c) The Director, College Development Council: The Directorwhile deliberating his

speech, laid stress mainly on two issues which are attached to the growth and

development of the Colleges. One being accreditation of NAAC and the other one is the

status of affiliation. The Director reiterated that the colleges are being repeatedly

requested to obtain NAAC accreditation to be eligible for receiving grants through

RUSA/OHEPEE/World Bank etc. He informed the house that the status of affiliation of

almost all Colleges upto 2018-19 is cleared. He also disclosed the planning of the

Council to hold an Affiliation Mela after the ensuing summer vacation preferably in the

month of June 2019.

d) The Director, Directorate of Distance and ContinuingEducation: The Director

informed the house that there is no degree courses that are newly started. However,

there are some programmes under DDCE running and they will be completed in course

of time. The Director expressed concern over paucity of dedicated staff in the

directorate. The Vice-Chancellor said that once upon a time the DDCE was a very good

wing for mobilising resource for the University. But now, due to closure of the courses,

the earning source is stopped. He wanted to know if there is any scope for revival of the

DDCE to run them properly and make resource for the University. He told that any

Department can start a course through DDCE and earn funds for the Department and

also for the University.

e) The Director, Sambalpur University Institute of Information Technology: The

Director said that the SUIIT is constituted in the year 2010 as an autonomous institution

of Sambalpur University primarily to run education on Information Technology.

Presently, as good as Eleven programmes are being run in the SUIIT. They are being

B.Tech, M.Tech., M.Sc. & M.C.A. The students are inducted through OJEE for BTech.

SUIIT is also recognised as an OJEE counselling centre by the Govt.of Odisha. SUIIT has

collaboration with other institutions. There are Four clubs and regular teachers are

6

being mentored by these clubs. Every year 10 to 20 students are reading without any

course fee. They only pay a meagre admission fee. He expressed his satisfaction over

the growth and development of the Institute with around 500 students and requested

the University to take care of it. The Vice-Chancellor requested the Director SUIIT to

bring out a Brochure of SUIIT and circulate among the faculty members and also in

VSSUT and other technical institutes to make aware of the programmes of SUIIT.

f) The Coordinator, Private Examination Cell: The Coordinator informed the House

that the PEC was instituted in the year 1999-2000 to provide scope to the non-regular

students. The Cell runs undergraduate as well as post graduate courses with traditional

mode of yearly examination system.

The Vice-Chancellor said that the PEC has a lot of potential. He expressed his concern

over the scanty advertisement policy of the programmes that fails to reach to the

potential candidates. He is of the opinion that the PEC should go for state level

advertisement in all Odisha issues of the leading newspapers and properly publicise our

courses being offered. He apprised the House of the proposal to open a study centre of

IGNOU and run their programmes in Sambalpur University. Prof.S.S.Rath welcomed

the proposal.

g) The Principal, LR Law College, Sambalpur:The Principal said that it is a constituent

Director said that the VIMSAR is the curriculum-based institute approved by the MCI

(Medical Council of India). He apprised that teachers’ training programme in VIMSAR

has been started and it is first of its kind in Odisha. It has a registered and recognised

Ethical Committee. Any science faculty of this University may consult the Director,

VIMSAR for registering Ethical Committee. There are various courses being run in

VIMSAR and examinations are also being conducted there recently. But old

examinations are conducted through the Controller of Examinations, Sambalpur

7

University. He thanked Sambalpur University for the cooperation and expected similar

cooperation in future too.

The Vice-Chancellor said that the courses being run by DDCE and PEC should be run in

CBCS system rather than in traditional mode of yearly examination system. Otherwise

the degrees provided by the DDCE and PEC may not be recognised. He suggested

VIMSAR to follow examination systems as per MCI guidelines. From this year i.e. from

2019-20 VIMSAR should start conducting their own examinations.

UGC and the committees should meet regularly and the proceedings should come out
