SELF STUDY REPORT (SSR)

For

Accreditation (Cycle-1)


A. - P R E F A C E

SA VIDYA JA VIMUKTAYE

It gives immense pleasure to opt for self appraisal of Mathakaragola

College; an experience to be a part of the preparation and presentation of Self-

Study Report for the purpose of assessment and accreditation by NAAC. During

the period of preparation of this document, we have maintained the sincerity,

honesty and commitment of a fresher without any reservation.

Transparency has been maintained in undertaking this self analysis

exercise, on behalf of all the stakeholders for their alma mater, in reading out the

strength, weakness and future perspectives of Mathakaragola College. It is a

rewarding leap to know ourselves better in an analytical way. We have deep seated

conviction that we could assess our past understandings, efforts and achievements

along with present standing and future possibilities without impression of prejudice

towards strengths and loopholes.

Talking of the preparatory process was satisfying and ample rewarding till

reaching at a genuine document of a growing institution. We have tapped all the

available opportunities up to diagnose efficiency and effectiveness of our

mechanism in realization of aims and objectives. We are assured of the fact that

our motivated maneuver would explicitly elicit the factual status of the college.

From the important findings, foremost is the identification of avenues those

require immediate redressal and those need long term treatment. Hopefully, this

would guide us in earmarking our policy and in revision of our goal to fulfill

individual, societal, national and global needs with regard to academic excellence,

need based quality learning and in responding positively to employment market.

Keeping one institution to self analysis and to invite a peer team for

impartial assessment is no less a valiant step that shows preparedness to understand

oneself thoroughly and to adhere to commitment to undertake any hardship in

preparation of a self study report as neatly as possible. The college placed its

interest and trust on the Core Committee with one Co-coordinator for the task long

before we set the ball on move. To aid and assist the Core Committee, there was a

General Committee entrusted with, literally speaking, the peripheral works like

collection of factual information, data, statistics and other minutes from within and

out-side the establishment so as to substantiate the criterion wise inputs. The Core

Committee with Coordinator as facilitator rendered services on analysis,

compilation, editing and final preparation of the document. Principal as head of the

institution and patron author of the SSR document kept himself busy in over all

supervision through leadership, guidance and support in all respects.

As per UGC guidelines, the four year span 2011-12, 2012-13, 2013-14 and

2014-15 is the coverage period for purpose of study , review and assessment of

performance for accreditation . The preparatory committee whenever felt it


relevant and necessary, incorporated facts from the current session and from the

sessions beyond period of review, with a simple view to keep the flow intact. Facts

so presented on SSR are self-explanatory and analytical. In order to ensure

objective is preserved, the collections of facts and figures are uniform, consistent,

relevant and the presentation is simple and straight.

Analyzing the facts criterion wise is both narrative and summative dealing

with present status, future plan, feasibilities and limitations – all these are

presented in organized, precise and concise manner.

Mathakaragola College, Mathakaragola, the very name suggests and

represents the interest and identity of the common man who conceived of a

college long back in the year 1987 with junior college and 1989 with a degree

college . Again it confirms the fact that the common public is its first and foremost

stakeholder in disguise. Starting with 74 no of students and 08 no of faculty as a

co-education college, it has now 639 no students and 31 no of faculty with

Honours teaching facility in Arts and Commerce courses affiliated to Utkal

University in UG level. Besides all, it has in campus accommodation for

Matahakaragola Junior College.

The Institution came under Govt. Grant-in-aid fold in the year 1994 and

from that time it has never seemed looking behind in any manner or direction.

Located adjacent to NH-53 it is approachable to all in all weather conditions.

Management of college, known as Governing Body believes more on

participatory deliverance than authoritative governance. My experience in this

college as a member of faculty and subsequently as principal is almost as long as

the age of the college. Understandably, college has never allowed any negligence

that could affect quality learning and maintenance of standard of teaching.

Academic excellence is exemplary and self evident from the result sheet, from the

hike in progression ratio, from minimization of drop out cases and loudly speaking

from the places and positions held by students in final degree examinations.

The College started with a premises of 4 rooms, and has acquired a land

mass of 11.63 acres and with cooperation and support of all stakeholders including

local MLA, M.P and Govt. It has at present 15 no of class rooms, 05 laboratories,

Library with reading room facilities both for faculty and students separately and all

other minimum facilities to support academic, sports, cultural, co-curricular

activities round the year.

In the age of rapid technological advancement, Mathakaragola College is

an institution imparting higher education on and only for core subjects still proudly

grows up steadily. We understand our responsibilities to adopt visions to ensure

inflow of technical knowledge into campus life. The college has been working hard

to bring in a revolutionary change in field of total computerization and in e-

governance. Opening up of undergraduate studies on Honours in Odia , Pol. Sc.,

Philosophy, Education, Management and Finance are some of the critical areas


under serious consideration for earliest implementation by the beginning of coming

session.

In the field of work efficiency among both teaching and non-teaching staff

just and adequate steps are being taken up continuously by the internal mechanism

and the Governing Body. It is proposed to introduce special training camps in

collaboration with HRD agencies.

It is pertinent to mention here that all functions in college are subject to

RTI and Citizen’s Chatter and for that reason office functionaries are held under

responsibility and accountability guidelines for their act of omission and

commission.

The college is capable of adopting diverse projects, fields and achieves

goals as suitable from time to time. The committed services of faculty, the

dedication of non-teaching staff, the sportive student’s participation, the zealous

cooperation of Governing Body, the constructive feed-back from alumni and

parent guardians have immensely inspired us for the go-ahead in assessment

process.

The Institution is committed to lift up the teaching-learning standard, to

convert the goals and objectives into reality, to pay back the stakeholders for their

dedication and dreams by providing quality education, personality development

and employment opportunities to all students from all branches of studies.

To achieve the goal of quality teaching, learning and evaluating keeping the

need basis requirement of the students in view, the college conducts regular career

counseling which facilitates recruitment of students.

While presenting this Self Study Report it is my pleasure to extend our

sincere thanks and words of appreciation to all the employees, the students, the

General Committee, the Core Committee, the Coordinator, the Governing Body

without whose tireless cooperation, preparation and presentation of this report

would have never been possible.

how these are communicated to the students, teachers, staff and other

stakeholders.

Vision

and progressive educational institution where students get ample scope to

manifest their potentialities to become ideal citizens with total commitment

to human values, social responsibility and kinship with nature.

Mission

To inculcate the idea “Come in to learn and Go out to serve” among

the students. To ensure and enhance the quality of our students by

nourishing their aptitudes and providing better opportunities for their

growth.

Objectives

To create and sustain an academic environment conducive to academic and professional excellence.

To provide value added and need based education and training to cater the needs of the society.

To discover the potential of the students and to encourage them to

achieve new heights.

To uphold and preserve the socio economic and cultural heritage.

To develop personality through community service

To inculcate the sense of civic responsibility, social commitment and patriotism

To foster creativity, scientific temper, leadership and sportsmanship

To help in raising up the agricultural production in the rural area

employment opportunities

and concern. In order to make the students, teachers, staff and stakeholders

conversant and well aware, appropriate steps like publication on college

calendar, walling on main building, timely interaction meetings and

discussions are in active place and shape.

1.1.2 How does the institution develop and deploy action plans for effective

implementation of the curriculum? Give details of the process and

1.1.3 What type of support (procedural and practical) do the teachers

receive (from the University and/or institution) for effectively

translating the curriculum and improving teaching practices?

The scope in this regard is limited as the college is dependent on the

policy of the University and the government. Despite all limitations, the

management takes incentive measures by deputing the teaching faculty to

seminars organized by University, by other institutions and encourages

perusal of orientation courses, refresher courses and other short term

courses which eventually help the faculty to translate the curriculum and

improve teaching practice beyond the boundary.

1.1.4 Specify the initiatives taken up or contribution made by the institution

for effective curriculum delivery and transaction on the Curriculum

provided by the affiliating University or other statutory agency.

College is watchful enough in easy deputation of the faculty and in

supporting them to avail Academic leave / duty leave as and when

necessary and in their absence necessary steps are being taken to make up

their classes through adjustment by other faculty members of the

department. In event of receiving any training, additional degree or awards

the college felicitates the faculty members as per their performance. Latest

teaching learning tools has been provided to the departments to deliver the

courses through unit test, half yearly and annual tests, group discussion and

interactive classes.


1.1.5 How does the institution network and interact with beneficiaries such

as industry, research bodies and the university in effective

operationalisation of the curriculum?

Mathakaragola College is in the process of NAAC accreditation. It

beneficiaries , stakeholders have also suggested to add the subjects like

bio-technology, bio-informatics, BBA, BCA, tourism and hospitality

management, aviation management etc. The college has signed MoU with

RSB (Group of Companies) and TSRDS. The college has very healthy

rapport with small scale industries, NGOs, perusing research work and

other educational institutions like Biju Pattanaik Computer Academy

affiliated to Fakir Mohan University. Utkal University, Bhubaneswar.

1.1.6 What are the contributions of the institution and/or its staff members

to the development of the curriculum by the University?(number of

student feedback, teacher feedback, stakeholder feedback provided,

specific suggestions etc.

of Utkal University and in this capacity he discharges valuable services in

formulation and development of curriculum of the University. Dr. Malaya

Ranjan Pati, HOD History has published a book on Ancient India being

approved by Utkal University.

Regarding the development of curriculum the institution welcomes

and received regular valuable feedbacks from teachers, students and other

stakeholders and faithfully transmits the same to the proper quarter like

university and government.

1.1.7 Does the institution develop curriculum for any of the courses offered

(other than those under the purview of the affiliating university) by it?

If ‘yes’, give details on the process (’Needs Assessment’, design,

development and planning) and the courses for which the curriculum

has been developed.

Not applicable.

1.1.8 How does institution analyze/ensure that the stated objectives of

student learning, to provide ongoing feedback that can be used by

instructors to improve their teaching and by students to improve their

learning. Formative Assessment of the students is done on the following

parameters:

1. Presentations

2. Class interactions

3. Group discussions/Viva-voce

4. Workshops/Seminars

5. Projects

6. Written and practical tests

7. Organizing functions

8. Social activities

9. Inter class competitions

10. Overall attendance and conduct during the session.

11. Assignment

Summative Assessment – The goal of summative assessment is to

evaluate student learning at the end of an instructional unit by comparing it

against some standard or benchmark. Assessment takes place at the end of

the academic session which is conducted by the college during the terminal

test at the end of the session. The university conducts a summative

evaluation at the end of each year through the following.

2.5.8 What are the mechanisms for redressal of grievances with reference to

evaluation both at the college and University level?

The mechanism for redressal of grievances regarding evaluation in both

internal assessment and university examination is through the following

process:

Internal Assessment – The subject teacher shows the answer papers to

the students in the class. Student can ask the teacher if he/she has any

doubt in evaluation. The teacher clarifies doubts regarding evaluation.

Discrepancies if any are treated with seriousness and adequately

addressed depending on the nature of the problem.

University examinations – With regard to university examinations, there is a mechanism adopted by the University for Redressal of

grievances. Within a stipulated day of the announcement of the results,

students can apply for revaluation. Whenever necessary, University

makes arrangements for issue of photocopies of their answer scripts to

the students after the announcement of results. This allows the students

to consult competent faculty to ensure fairness of evaluation. Faculty

and the college examination I/C under instructions from principal

forwards applications for revaluation to the university and follow it up

regularly for speedy redressal of grievances.

Principal stakeholder of the college looks in to the general administration,

financial implications and overall infrastructural development.

It has control over the employees through appointment, regularization

of service, sanction of different kinds of leave and through maintenance of

CCR.

The college has a Principal duly approved by the government. His

function as such is multidimensional. He acts as the team leader of the

college administration, as the institutional representative of the department

of higher education and the key officer between college and the governing

body. In this process he is the main source of feedback collection and the

principal executive for implementation of the same.

The Principal is the Ex-Officio President/Chairman of all committees

/ bodies / societies/ constituted with regard to quality policy and plans. His

valuable guidance, administrative and financial assistance influences the

total mechanism working on quality and development. He convenes

meetings of all bodies to guide, govern, and assess their timely

taken in the meeting are submitted to the Managing Committee and the

Management arrives at suitable decisions for implementation. It is evident

that the governing body, the Principal and the faculty as well as students

through meeting, notice and publication in calendar.

The leadership is collective and co-operative. It is responsible and

accountable to the act of omission and commission.

The governing body having members from both teaching and non-

received from student feedback and information available in self-appraisal

forms of teachers help the authorities to plan properly. Annual Parent-

Teachers Meet strengthens the bond of parents with the institution. Annual

Alumni Meet facilitates the hold of the alumni for their contribution to the

growth of the college. In statutory bodies such as Governing body and

Academic Council, experts from various fields are members and they

contribute towards the development of the institution. Every department

takes the views of alumni, subject experts and an industrialist for the

overall development. Thereby a link with the public is established.

Officers in Charge and Coordinators of each level of the system

consolidate recommendations after discussion with members and present

them to the apex bodies. The feasibility of the proposed changes is

discussed in the presence of the respective coordinators and if found

acceptable, the changes are implemented. The Principal is the competent

authority to give finishing touch to each plan proposal.

At the outset of each academic year, a self-mapping exercise is

conducted for the staff. This exercise exposes the strengths and challenges

of each of the personnel to draw a potential map, which gives insight to the

management, for the distribution of responsibilities. The head of the

institution appoints the conveners for various committees and further

nominates the members of committees in consultation with the respective

conveners based on the potential map. The committees are well guided

about their roles and responsibilities by the principal. The faculties are

informed of their duties and responsibilities by the head of the institution in

the scheduled staff meetings and departmental briefings and through


publication in college calendar. The administrative staff is given a job map

along with the roles and responsibilities.

methods of approach to curriculum, in organizing respective practical

classes, conducting their seminars, holding monthly or unit tests and in

developing own library and evaluation process. The administrative

authority is delegated in a small measure to Vice-Presidents of different

boards and to the bursars who eventually exercise authority in day to day

activities and in clearance of sectional files they are associated with.


Besides this there is a self appraisal format so designed to discover the

performance of the faculty in a holistic manner. Students also apprise the

to facilitate inflow of UGC grants to help implementation of new

schemes. The IQAC endeavors for quality management. It has

contributed significantly for Quality Assurance, Strategies and

processes.

In order to institutionalize the quality assurance process, one senior

member of the faculty named Sri Chittaranjan Dash has been assigned

with the charge of it as the Coordinator and two ministerial staff are

attached to assist him as and when necessary. Two external

academicians Dr. Rama Chandra Dhir and Prof. Durga Charan Biswal

have contributed significantly in the functioning of the IQAC. Besides,

the college has opened a website including IQAC. It is funded from the

college source and the UGC has been moved to extend its support.

of the IQAC?

The college has an Alumni Association which lends to strengthen the

stake-holder relationship. Participates in decision making process and

fosters college development. Alumni Association has come forwarded

to assist both in Career Counseling activities and quality improvement

of students and by bridging the relationship between industries and the

institute.

e. How does the IQAC communicate and engage staff from different

constituents of the institution?

The IQAC acts as a catalyst in undertaking various programmes by

different departments. The staffs are motivated to undertake qualitative

and innovative activities in their respective fields. This has mainly been

achieved by conducting Seminars in the institute at a regular interval.

Sometimes Academicians are invited for special classes.

6.5.2 Does the institution have an integrated framework for Quality

assurance of the academic and administrative activities? If ‘yes’, give

details on its operationalisation.

Yes, the institution has an integrated framework for Quality

Assurance of the academic and administrative activities.The academic

functions and related administrative matters have been vastly streamlined

ever since the functional committees are formed. The feedback on teachers

obtained from students has helped to analyze and evaluate the performance

of the teachers. The evaluation has led to remedial measures to improve the

performance of teachers through SDP and to encourage teachers who have

been efficient and full of initiative. The self-appraisal mechanism started

for teachers, together with the student feedback has been very useful for the

Principal to arrive at an overall performance report of the teacher.

Arrangements of faculty development programmes, skill development

programmes for students and non teaching staff, continuous up-gradation of

laboratory facilities, library and office automation, enhancement of student

support services (Carrier guidance, counseling, mentorship, encouragement

to culture and sports activities) has brought a revolutionary changes in the

adhered to. The academic as well as the administrative working is further

smoothened by conducting time to time training sessions for the teaching

and non-teaching staff of the college. Small workshops over the weekends,

in the form of interactive sessions, have helped the staff of the institution

work in a better and more promising way. Teachers are advised to monitor

the workflow of the competitive colleges and thereby to improve their inter

personnel skills.

6.5.4 Does the institution undertake Academic Audit or other external

review of the academic provisions? If ‘yes’, how are the outcomes used

to improve the institutional activities?

Yes, the institution undertakes Academic Audit and other external

review of the academic provisions by Academic Bursars. Such audits

encourage and, in some cases, force the institution to self-assess their

quality assurance arrangements and identify areas seeking improvements to

avoid public scrutiny with fears of negative public audit report and media

scrutiny. The strategy used in the college has been effective in engaging

academic staff in quality and also contributing in positive changes. Such

changes have resulted in internal self-reviews undertaken in preparation for

the external quality audit.

6.5.5 How are the internal quality assurance mechanisms aligned with the

requirements of the relevant external quality assurance

agencies/regulatory authorities?

The Internal Quality Assurance mechanism is aligned with the

requirements of external quality assurance. In some areas like arrangement

for feedback responses from students, parents and other stakeholders on

quality- related institutional processes, organization of intra institutional

workshops, seminars on quality related themes and promotion of quality

circles, development and application of some quality

benchmarks/parameters for the various academic and administrative

activities of the institute etc are more or less aligned with the requirements

of the relevant external assurance agencies.

However, we need to strive hard to improve upon in some other

areas like development and maintenance of institutional database through

Management Information System (MIS) for the purpose of maintaining

/enhancing the institutional quality, dissemination of information on the

various quality parameters of higher education etc.


6.5.6 What institutional mechanisms are in place to continuously review the

teaching learning process? Give details of its structure, methodologies

the Academic Committee, the ministerial staff facilitating academic

discharges are integrated who are directly responsible and accountable to

the Principal.

The Head of the institution ensures an academic integrity by

keeping an eye on the regular progress of classes, listening to the

grievances of the students and faculty and trying to solve such problems. In

executing these activities, head of the departments take feed back of the

faculty members of their concern department in regular intervals, who, in

turn, communicate the same to the principal.

In need of major changes in the system of management or in

implementation of any innovative measure, the meeting of the Staff

Council is summoned to arrive at workable and efficient results. After

thorough analysis of the feedback forms, principal exercises prerogative

powers and suggests appropriate training to be imparted to the faculty

members.

Strength

Our students are obedient, sincere and hardworking and do well in

Weakness

Non availability of funds for research work. Most of the students

are from poor economic background.

Opportunity

The future of Economics honours graduate is bright. They can opt.

for higher studies or they can seek service in different sector.

Economics graduates can cope with the liberalization and

globalization era. They can be suitably placed anywhere.

Challenges

In the competitive scenario it is a hard task to produce potential human

resources in a rural area with poor economic background. Still then faculty

members try to improve the quality of students so that they can earn their

lively hood and never remain unemployed.
