the needs of an ever-changing and dynamic learning community. To serve this

purpose, a well-established mentoring system is adopted in the institute with

the following objectives:

To provide guidance and support to the students.

To improve student- teacher relationship.

To improve overall performance of the students.

To help students in identifying various options for their career and

future.

Mentoring system to help at individual levels: Faculties are annually assigned as mentors for B. Pharm who are working as

guardians / mentors for the students. Each faculty looks after 20-25 students.

The faculty mentors continuously assess, monitor, counsel and give possible

guidance to the students and record their assessment in Mentoring report.

Following records are maintained with each faculty mentors.

1 Personal Information form– In this, detailed information about

students like name, fathers’ name, mothers’ name, photo, phone

numbers of student and parents, their e mail addresses, permanent and

local addresses, health related information like blood group, allergy

etc. are recorded.

2 Mentoring report– This report is filled at the start of the academic

year and during each mentoring session to assess the students’

performance. It covers following points.



Self-evaluation by students – Mentoring report covers self-evaluation by the

students on their strengths, weaknesses, hobbies, goals and career plans etc.

This self-evaluation by students helps their mentors to know the strengths and

weaknesses of the individual students. It also makes mentor aware of the

career goals and future plans of the students and accordingly necessary career

guidance can be provided by the institute.

Total development – During mentoring, students are evaluated for their

learning ability, independent working ability, leadership quality, team

working ability, expression of thoughts and participation in co and

extracurricular activities. Assessment of all the above parameters help the

mentors to understand the strengths and weaknesses of the students, thus

special efforts can be taken by the mentor to overcome the weaknesses of the

students. Mentors also provide continuous support and guidance to the

students which are necessary in their overall development.

Professional knowledge – During mentoring sessions, students are evaluated

for their problem solving ability, communication skills, clarity about career

objectives, their attitude towards others and overall professional knowledge.

Mentors then decide which qualities need to be polished, and provide

necessary guidance to perk them up.

Academic performance – For monitoring the course work and laboratory

specific performance of the students, their percentage attendance and

Sessional marks obtained for theory and practical of the individual subject are

maintained. This academic performance record indicates the learning ability,

subject knowledge and practical knowledge or skills of the students. Mentors

continuously monitor the attendance and marks of the students in different

subjects. The reason for the poor performance of the students is assessed

during mentoring and proper counselling and guidance for improving the

performance is given to the students.

Parenthood – Parenthood concept helps the mentor to interact with students

at individual levels. This concept helps mentors to understand the student’s

problems (family, economic, institutional, physical problems etc.) which

might be affecting their overall performance in the institute. During

mentoring, mentors counsel the students and give suggestions related to their

problems. Occasionally, mentor’s meeting with the parents is conducted based

on the requirement.

3. Report analysis – Mentoring report of individual student is analysed and

problems are recorded.

4. Action taken – After careful analysis, problems related to institute (library,

infrastructure or other facilities etc.), academic (individual subject related

problems), professional (career related problems), total development

(communication, leadership, team working etc.) or personal (economic,

family, physical etc.) are identified, discussed with respective person or

department and efforts are taken to resolve the problems.

5.1 Student Mentoring and Support

As faculty, the teachers endeavor to be guides, counselors and facilitators to our

students, thereby honing their leadership and organizing skills which are

invaluable assets when they step into the fiercely competitive world outside.

5.1.1 Does the institution have a system for student support and mentoring?

If yes, what are its structural and functional features?

Yes, the institution has students mentoring and support. Twenty students have

been allocated from different classes to one faculty. Mentorship involves

academic assessment, identification and nurturing of individual talents and

counseling.

Students counseling is conducted periodically and it is effectively carried out

through mentoring system. Faculty members play the role of mentors and each

mentor is assigned with a small group of students. Mentor meetings are conducted

periodically to counsel the students, address their grievances and to motivate

them.

A mentor is a trusted and experienced advisor who has a direct interest in the

development and education of a less experienced mentee (Student). The

relationship between the mentor and mentee is unique, totally voluntary, and is

carried out in addition to other work responsibilities. A mentor makes a

commitment to an assigned mentee to help her or him grow into the graduate

community’s culture and support their professional development. Overall, an

effective mentoring relationship empowers the mentee to be confident in his or

her own abilities

Mentor’s role may include, but is not limited to

Advisor:

Advise mentee on how to accomplish their goals; help the mentee develop

alternatives to address work- related problems.

Supporter:

Encourage the participation of the mentee on committees to increase visibility;

enhance the mentee’s self-esteem through supportive, non-judgmental

discussions. The sense of trust that often develops can reduce personal stress for

the mentee.

Diplomat:

Mentees tend to make mistakes. The mentor helps them to correct their errors and

develop reflective/anticipatory thinking skills, by providing constructive feedback

in a helpful and non-threatening manner.

Mentor Responsibilities:

Monitoring individual student Collection of student bio-data (Parents name &

address with e-mail ID & phone numbers) present address with accompanied



person details (Name, Phone number & E-mail ID, etc.), to collect and maintain

percentage of attendance in all subjects in every 15 days, to collect and maintain

results performance in Mid/Sessional exams. If attendance and results

performance is poor/not met to the minimum requirement the mentor should

council the students and inform to their parents to improve mentee attendance and

results. Should check for Dress code, Punctuality and mobile phones every day

both in morning and afternoon sessions

The Concept of Mentorship would include

a. Monitoring individual student attendance.

b. Attending issues related to fees.

c. Attending to issues related to student discipline.

d. Build individual profile for placement activity.

e. Encourage them to actively participate in class room activities.

f. Supporting them in presenting papers in Symposium/Seminars/Conferences.

g. Clearing concept- oriented doubts of the students. HODs meet the students

periodically and counsel them.

Efficiency of the System: The mentoring system developed by the institution has

been proved to be effective considering different parameters. The involvement of

students in the academics has been increased, like class work attendance, paper

presentations, presentation of models in exhibitions, participation in cultural

activities etc. Because the number of students allocated to each of the mentor is

limited to 20, personal interaction on regular basis has been taken up.

Teachers are also becoming more responsive to the learner needs day by day

which is being reflected in the records maintained by the teacher. The feedback

collection process the institution believes that obtaining constant feedback from

students assist in improving the quality of the system. Hence it periodically

collects feedback from the students through a questionnaire which enables the

student to provide feedback on curriculum aspects, teaching– learning process,

support services and other facilities offered by the institution during their course

period. The suggestions given by the students during the monthly meetings were

solved immediately by the counselor in consultation with the HOD and the

Principal, if needed. All the feedback forms were analyzed and reports were

prepared.

The heart and soul of innovation in education is our ability to improve human

knowledge base in a structured manner that can benefit students, faculty,

profession and the society. We advance our education through,

1. Innovation in Academics and co-curriculum activities.

2. Innovation in Research

3. Innovation in Governance

Our work on innovation also helped us to learn about the various roles that are

needed inside an organization to designate responsibility and/or accountability for

exploring, doing and sustaining innovation. It helped us to see all aspects of our

work, from teaching and learning to the research encouragement, as opportunity

spaces for generating innovation; and we found many examples to demonstrate

their positive outcomes.

Modern teaching-learning process:

Teaching wisdom helps our students to become fully realized citizens during their

time with us, helping them to develop “soundness of action” and “good

judgment” is a core issue which is concerned with knowledge, skill and behavior.

To make the teaching more effective and efficient faculty deliver their lectures

using audio visual aids equipped with animations, faculty encourages students for

interactive sessions to clear their doubts related to topics being taught, students

are given home assignments/ tutorials and field work. The M. Pharm. students are

allotted to respective guides to deliver seminar on syllabus based topic or recent

trends in pharmaceutical technology. The students have to present in front of

his/her colleagues and faculty members. The faculty does suggest extensive

literature to complete the tutorial. Faculty members give critical comment on

topic and improvement of his/her presentation and knowledge.

training /placement of students in industries and joint work with R& D

organizations

Innovation in governance

The governance structure of college believes in delegation of various

responsibilities for smooth functioning through entrustment of power and

encourages individual leadership to enhance quality education and research.

Continuous improvement through mentoring process

The college follows the process of mentoring to slow learners. The slow learners

are identified by respective teachers depending upon their performance in the

internal examinations. All faculty members have been assigned by principal for

mentoring students. Each faculty is assigned about 10-15 students for mentoring.

The faculty shares his personnel and professional experiences with slow learners

and mentors a student about their over-all development. The slow learners

therefore, consistently encouraged, inspired and motivated for improvement and

ultimately they are brought at par with advance learners. The objective of this

practice is to monitor, help and counsel the students in their undergraduate and

post graduate tenure by the faculty as a academic guardian. In this activity a

faculty shares his/her educational knowledge and professional experiences with

student. The mentoring includes counseling, guidance and motivation given by

faculty in terms of curriculum, co-curriculum, psychological, and personality

development of the students. It was observed that students need guidance, support

and personal attention with respect to registering to various academic programs



and understanding the documentary needs as they are entering into the

undergraduate course directly after completion of their higher schooling.

Class teachers & parenthood concept

Based on the need of time, college has developed a program “Class Teachers &

Parenthood concept” for parents and guardians. Under this program all the

parents / guardians are informed time to time about the status of their children in

form of attendance, marks and backlogs in academic performance, university

exams. In continuation to this we at our college regularly call a parents meet to

take an active role in their child progress, strengths, weakness such as language

barrier, lack of financial resources, low educational attainment and potential

opportunities.

Faculty improvement

College staff members are encouraged to participate at various national and

international conferences, workshop and staff development programs, symposia

and seminars for improvement of their academic and professional skills. As a part

of our academic calendar we regularly organize seminar/conference on various

subjects from pharmaceutical sciences. We encourage our faculty to present and

publish their research work. Our faculty members are also encouraged for

pursuing their higher studies from reputed universities and this learning

opportunity promotes positive self-esteem. Moreover for overall development of

our faculties and their expertise we do arrange personality development sessions,

English speaking courses, yoga and meditation related programs at regular

intervals.

college assists students for industrial training and also organizes campus

placement. Recently we have invited TCS Mumbai and Amigo Pharma for

campus recruitments. High percentages of the students have been recruited by

MNC through the campus placements arranged by T & P cell of the college. The

college also has a CPCSEA approved animal house facility. Along with equipped

laboratory the college also has state of art machine and instrument room with

sophisticated instruments. For the overall development of students and to improve

technical know-how’s various guest lecturers of eminent resource persons from

industry and academics are arranged.

4. Problems encountered and resources required: There are some levels of shortcomings and weaknesses for example support of

pharmaceutical industries to the college. Also the students admitted in college are

from a remote rural area so lots of efforts are required to improve their English

communication and writing ability.
