This institution development plan
aims to develop a new quality-driven academic environment in the lines of
National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. It is designed for creating a strong
academic culture by adopting student-centric pedagogy, fostering outcome-based
learning environment, and maintaining high-quality faculty. The actions of this
plan would be directed to train the faculty members to adapt with these new
terms of multi-disciplinary academic environment, flexible entry/exit system,
and easy credit transfer options envisaged in NEP 2020.
Proposed Action 1:
Harnessing the key competencies
of students such as Leadership, Teamwork, Communication Skill, Social
Sensitivity etc. This institution believes that these skills are developed in
students by encouraging them to participate in various extra-curricular events
and inter-collegiate competitions. The emphasis will be given to give the
students ample opportunities to nurture these competencies.
Proposed Action 2:
Mentor-Mentee program will be
implemented effectively to increase the faculty engagement with students.
Faculty members will be trained to become excellent mentors so that they could
develop the abilities, skills, and competencies of mentee students.

the technology enabled teaching-learning process. The effective use of
educational technologies like ERP Portal, Smart Class Rooms, Shiksha-Setu

environment for internationalisation of education.

of accreditation and assessment through NAAC would be completed up to 2026. We
also intend to improve the Prayaas ranking and participate in the NIRF ranking
framework.

Every Department would develop a
short-term certificate course for students and get it approved from the parent
university. Encouragement would be given to the faculty members to create and
communicate these courses among the students.
Proposed Action 9:
The institution strives to expand the
existing outreach programs to more surrounding villages and create more
outreach activities in the next five years. These programs would be designed
and developed to inculcate the values of gender equality, human rights and
ecology in the students, thus shaping them into efficient, empathetic and
responsible individuals.
