To augment existing infrastructure.

Research centers in different fields have to be developed; the process to seek permissions from the

statutory bodies has been initiated.

Post graduation courses also need to be initiated, in subjects which only offer undergraduate courses.

Suggestion: Huge campus area of college could be used optimally.

Since the college is easily accessible to rail routes; new courses keeping in track with the industry

should be initiated as it is advantageous and would attract students.

Weakness: Power failure, Communication gap, not many research publications

Opportunity: Value based education and opportunities available to girls and students of weaker, rural

sections. The proximity of colleges in the Mumbai region and ours is huge, courses should be designed

and made available which is at par with courses available in the city.

Threats: Regular power cuts take their toll on most laboratory instruments and computers raising the

maintenance costs.
