SWOT Grid
Strength Weaknesses
The institution is Grant-in-Aid form Govt. of Maharashtra under ‘Grant-in-Aid Policy for Tribal Areas’ and also accredited by NAAC at ‘B’ Grade.
The institution is imparting qualitative higher education exclusively to ST, SC and OBC students in Co-education mode. (96% college students are ST, 2% OBC and 1% SC.
The Intuition has its own Building. Sufficient land for further enhancement and development. All the sanctioned posts have been filled as per reservation
roaster. Highly qualified Young teaching staff and skilled Non
teaching staff, which is doing at its best in bringing rural and downtrodden youth into the main stream of the higher education.
Two Hindi spoken teachers (one from H.P. and one from M.P.) is also available in institution which strengthening the National language and also enhancing the Hindi communication skill in such Non Hindi spoken areas.
Uniformity in Curriculum , the curriculum is prescribed by the affiliating University.
Supervisors for research oriented courses (Ph.D. &M.Phil). Financial assistance to all the students i.e. Scholarships,
Poor students fund, student insurance, Cash prizes) . Ragging free, well disciplined, Hygienic, safe and eco friendly
environment. The institution is well connected with both Asian highway,
National Highway , and State roads. Basic facilities such as Post Office, Banks, ATM, Hospitals
etc. are available within 200 mt. Surrounding. Progression towards IT and e-campus development and
digitisation of library . Student’s favourable response towards extracurricular and
community services. Healthy MIS and active involvement of the stakeholders
including local community and staff towards the advancement of the institution.
Soft skill cum personality development & employability skill development programme and competitive exam preparation centre is at glance.
All round Development of the students through student support programme such as NSS, Sports, Cultural programmes, Disaster Management Programme and National/State/university level workshop and seminar etc.
Malpractices in examination is strictly prohibited and under control.
Distance Education Study Centre at UG and P.G. level.
The institution is located in Tribal Area where Living standard of the people is very low which affects the moral level of the students. (The highest tribal populated district in Maharashtra)
No income sources, 99% population of the Visarwadi region is Tribal (Aadivaasi) Majority of the families of this region is Below Poverty Line (BPL). So, the local community and stakeholders are unable to donate or contribute a single rupee for the institutional development
The college does not recognise under Sec. 12(B) of UGC ACT. 1956, thus ineligible for UGC Grants.
Hostel facility for Boys and Girls students is not available. So, the students of remote areas always dropped their higher education.
Inadequate infrastructure and building to compete the modern and latest requirements of the UGC and affiliating university.
inadequate modern IT materials and e- facility, which affecting the bridging & learning and students progression.
Unavailability of P.G. courses in regular mode.
AQAR 2015-2016 Track ID – 13107 (Maharashtra) Saravjanik Arts & Commerce College, Visarwadi, Page 37
Opportunities Threats
Expansion of U.G. unit : presently the institution is offering
only one UG Course i.e. Arts (B.A.). If, the infrastructural and building capacity is increased or provided under RUSA then it would not only be quite possible to upgrade and expand the U.G. Unit to P.G. Unit, but it could also be the platform for opening of new multi disciplinary education such as Commerce and Science stream.
Legibility for UGC Grants : proposal for inclusion of institution under Sec. 2 (f) & 12(B) of UGC ACT, 1956 is under consideration at UGC, New Delhi.
Community Awareness and Welfare Programme : The tribal
people of this area is still believes in superstitions, apart this Malnutrition and Siècle Cell disease is another major problem of this tribal region. So, HRD sponsored awareness programmes on the said issues can be organised in collaboration with institution at villages level.
Student Centric : if the space or new building provided for the organisation and conduct competitive exam coaching classes, NET/SET coaching classes etc. then these classes can be regularly organised, which definitely raise the employment avenues the student’s employment chart.
Faculty Advancement : The faculty can undertake UGC Minor
and Major Research Projects and can also participate in seminar and conferences at Abroad on UGC funding. Now with increased infrastructure, the teacher can spent more time in the institution and can emphasize more on research activities and student advancement.
Development of IT skill: e-learning, IT skill and wi-fi access can be easily strengthened and promoted among the students.
Inadequate infrastructure and
building is a biggest hurdle in shaping the all-round personality of the students and making the teaching learning process more effective.
P.G. or further education enrolment ratio is much less due to unavailability of P.G. courses in this tribal area.
High dropout ratio in remote
areas due to non availability of Boys and Girls Hostel.
Malpractices habit at School level making the faculty job more typical and challenging.
New comers preferring
distance education instead of regular education.
A low living standard and introverts trait is the biggest threat found in student at large of this tribal area.
Higher Illiteracy rate.
