IQAC ( Internal Quality Assurance Cell )

The basic purpose of establishment of IQAC as a post accreditation quality measure is to develop a system for conscious, consistent and catalytic action to improve the academic and administrative performance of the institution and to assure all the stake holders about the quality and capacity building programs provided in the institution. Every HEI should have an internal quality assurance system, with appropriate structures and processes. The IQAC is meant for planning, guiding and monitoring Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Enhancement (QE) activities of HEIs. Quality enhancement is a continuous process to channelize the efforts and the initiations of the institution towards academic excellence. It can inculcate all the constituents of the institution. It is a facilitative and participative unit of institution. It should be seen as a vehicle for ushering in quality and excellence by working out intervention strategies to remove deficiencies and enhance quality. The publication of IQAC NEWS helps disseminating the information about the information about the activities, programs, interaction carried out by an institution for sharing the same with the stake holders , other higher education institutions and teacher education institutions to be emulated and improved for achieving best results or for getting accredited and assessed by the NAAC

Challenges of IQAC
  • The primary challenge encountered is that of resistance—to change. A lot convincing and persistence measures to alter strategies wherever needed has resulted in a lot of time being lost.

  • The management have not provided any technical support to the IQAC Coordinator yet.
