Publicity:-

Admission process is carried out as per university norms and schedule of time. Faculty

members take the initiative to publicize and counsel the student about the existing courses

and combinations in the college at nearby pre university colleges. The students are also

counseled by the members of the admission committee.

other) to various programmes of the Institution.

There is no cut off percentage as such for the UG courses as the government orders that

every student is given whoever applies. However the meritorious students are given first

preference.

Since the student’s strength who applies for commerce is high, the admission committee

scrutinizes the applications and gives admission to meritorious students on first come first

serve basis as the seats for commerce are limited according to university orders.

out by the university.

for each of the programmers offered by the college and provide a comparison with

to evaluate the students. The slow learners are taken care of by mentors and counseling cell.

Remedial classes are arranged for the needy. The faculty members are encouraged to conduct

tests, quizzes, completion to monitor the academic progress of each student. Department wise

result analysis is done for every semester.

Advisory committee the librarian has to collect the feedback from all its users. Usually the

feedback will be obtained formally and informally from all internal stakeholders of the

institution. Normally some students give feedback about library services orally to the

principal, teachers and even the CDC members. At the end of the semester the feedback will

be collected formally from all users. The feedback so collected will be analyzed critically and

used for further improvement of library services. The suggestions given by users of library

services will be implemented by the library staff to improve the services further. With the

help of feedback the quality of library services has improved. The services which are

Context

In case of any staff member or a student face serious illness. They are not in a

political science met with an accident on his way to college. Unfortunately he got seriously

injured, the collar bone and spinal cord got damaged. For his treatment he needed lakhs of

rupees. At that time also students and staff members of the college donated money for his

34 SWOC analysis of the department

Strength

The teaching faculties are willing to help the students and that they are willing to put extra effort in

helping them to succeed.

In the future we are planning to do some research projects with students & to create some research

oriented knowledge in them.

Teaching faculties are very happy to engage the students & they are willing to put the time into build

good relationships with students.

Weakness

Students do not have the fundamentals necessary for the more advanced classes. WI-FI facilities are not available.

Transfer of Permanent teachers in Govt. College is inevitable.

Students are very weak in language as they come from villages.

Opportunities Students wanted the remealial classes after the class hours to clear their doubts

Students want to give more exposure to experimental techniques which they could not able to convince

in the class room.

Students wish to visit research institutes to get more knowledge about the ongoing projects.

Challenges Teaching faculty see the threats for success from multiple sources.

Some students lack self confidence in academics & have behavioral issues that stem from the students

not caring enough about the subject matter.
