 About IQAC

 

The IQAC will become a part of the institution’s system and work towards the realization of the goals of quality enhancement and sustenance. The prime task of the IQAC is to develop a system for conscious, consistent and catalytic improvement in the overall performance of institutions. For this, during the post-accreditation period, it will channelize all efforts and measures of the institution towards promoting its holistic academic excellence.

According to the guide lines given by NAAC, our college established Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) on 10th August,2018 since then Asst. Prof. Maind V.B. is working as a coordinator of IQAC. Various policies related to quality education and infrastructural development are created and executed through IQAC. The IQAC Committee has been formed as per NAAC recommendations for IQAC Constitution. Our IQAC is a full functioning body.

IQAC Guidelines

  • The guidelines will guide and facilitate the institution in the creation and operation of the Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC). The work of the IQAC is the first step towards internalization and institutionalization of quality enhancement initiatives. Its success depends upon the sense of belongingness and participation it can inculcate in all the constituents of the institution. It will not be yet another hierarchical structure or a record-keeping exercise in the institution. It will be a facilitative and participative voluntary system/unit/organ of the institution. It has the potential to become a vehicle for ushering in quality enhancement by working out planned interventionist strategies to remove deficiencies and enhance quality like the “Quality Circles” in industries.
