The research cell conducts several activities annually for the benefit of students and

One of our teachers has also written 2 e-books available with Baker & Taylor who are

indexed with Scopus.

The college has taken several steps to promote research culture among the faculty. They

include enhancement of infrastructure facilities, improvement in library facilities, provision

of NRC (Network Resource Centre), subscription to more research journals, provision of N-

List facility etc. The college provides facilities to teachers for their quality up-gradation

and the management also provides seed money for research in case there is no research

funding from UGC or other bodies. Owing to this encouragement, as many as 22 teachers

of all departments, on the college’s rolls, have Ph.D. qualifications and 7 of them are also

research supervisors.
