1. PREFACE
The Biyani Girls College (BGC), an exclusive girls, post graduate and
research institute, is one of the best women colleges in the state of
Rajasthan. It was the dream of a true educationist Late Shri Jugal Kishoreji
Biyani, to establish a women college, who had a vision to provide quality
education with women empowerment through technical education. It was his
strong belief that the educated women can only bring reforms and
improvements in the society. The vision was translated into reality by
establishing the Biyani Girls College by his eldest son, the enthusiastic
educationist-entrepreneur, Mr. Rajeev Biyani FCA. He had established the
college in one of the most progressive and developed locality of the city of
Jaipur where co-ed college would have been much more lucrative and
profitable. But due to his strong conviction about the importance of women
education that forced him to open college exclusively for women. Furthermore,
Rajasthan is still very backward educationally in terms of women literacy.
Despite 60 years after independence Rajasthan has the lowest women literacy
rate (52.66% against All India 65.46% as per 2011 census) even below Bihar
(53.33%) and still very much part of the so-called “BIMARU” states of the
country.
The Institutional vision is to create deep niche in defining the quality element
of higher education in India through an excellence of scholastic achievement
in the pursuit of education at the global level. Our ultimate goal is to recognize
the Institution‟s role as a pro active, innovative and flexible organization in
equipping students with top quality education and human values.
The mission of the Institution is to keep pace with the futuristic growing
civilized world through women empowerment. It intends to develop young
women who possesss knowledge and confidence to adjust to the fast changing
world of the competitive scenario without losing traces of our traditions
humanity, spirituality and propose of existence. The institution wants to
transform the hidden unlimited potentialities of girls into creativity,
empowerment and prosperity of the nation with humanity.
The College is being run very successfully under the collective leadership of the
three its very efficient, energetic, dynamic Executive, viz., Mr. Rajeev Biyani
FCA (Chairman), Prof (Dr) Sanjay Biyani (Director, Academics) and Prof. (Dr.)
Manish Biyani (Director, Research & Development).Thus catering to the needs
of the society in a comparatively educationally backward state of Rajasthan, the
college has proudly completed first decade of existence with students strength
of over 1350 and faculty strength of 71.

Jaipur and it offers 07 UG & 10 PG Courses, M.Phil and Ph.D. programs,
besides 16 value added courses. The college is situated on a sprawling and lush
green campus of 1.1 acre or 4451.5 square meters and boarding National
Highway Number 11, the college has a cluster of beautiful and spacious

Criterion V: Student Support and Progression
The college has a well equipped campus located in the heart of Jaipur city.
Our results show that on an average above 90 percent of our students are
successful in examinations, out of which 75 percent get first division. Our
college is affiliated to the University of Rajasthan. The college has a website

10% of PG students enrolled into Ph.D programmes. In addition to various
games and sports activities the BGC girls have achieved the distinction of
playing table-soccer championship at national and international levels and
have consistently obtained gold medals last few years.
Criterion VI: Governance, Leadership and Management
The college has a clear vision of empowering women with technical
education. The ultimate goal is to recognize the institutions role as a pro-
active, innovative and flexible organization in equipping students with top
quality education and human values. The main aim behind establishing
exclusively Women College was to bring in necessary reforms and
improvements in the hitherto traditional and old and feudal customs ridden
society. And this change could be brought out only through women education.
Historically Rajasthan has been educationally very backward. Prior to the
merger of Rajasthan (1948) it was constituted by 21 princely states which gave
very little attention to develop educational facilities in their respective princely
state. Even after independce and during the entire period of 60 years of
planned development of the country Rajasthan continues to be most backward
state in terms of literacy and more so with female literacy which is shown
below in the following table.-
Literacy Rates in Selected States of India (Census 2011)
State Total Male Female
Bihar 63.8 73.5 53.3
Madhya Pradesh 70.6 80.5 60.0
Rajasthan 67.1 80.5 52.7
Uttar Pradesh 69.7 79.2 59.3
All India 74.04 82.14 65.46
In terms of socio-economic indicators these above four states were dubbed as
“BIMARU” states owing to their very low ranking in almost all socio-
economic parameters.
Teaching and learning process is controlled by various committees under the
directions of management. Besides the Internal Quality Assurance Cell
(IQAC) there is the number of committees to perform various functions
related to the college.
8
The participatory role of the management encourages the involvement of the
college staff, which is necessary for the efficient and effective running of the
College. The principal as the Head of the institution bears the ultimate
responsibility for the smooth running of the College. The role of the Principal
is multi-dimensional. Principal is responsible for both the academic and
administrative functioning of the College.
The Management actively takes part in the working of the institution. The
management plays the leading role in governance and management of the
institution. The management observes the day to day working of the college
administration, governance, management and academic activities. The
Management conducts meetings periodically and ensures the respective
policies taken for the best success of individual career program. Management
looks after the faculty requirements, infrastructure, financial expenditure and it
provides the funds for different developmental activities taking place in the
campus.
Adequate freedom is given to the Principal, HODs and Mentors to ensure that
they have powers to exercise in decision making at the same time are held
accountable to their decisions. Their participation in decision making is
ensures thereby promoting a culture of Participative Management.
Criterion VII: Innovations and Best Practices
Over the years the college has adopted a number of innovative practices the
particular of which are given in the detailed report. The popularity of the
college is indicated by the number of applicants for different courses that is
going up every year. The Institution has been pioneer in exploring and
developing the capabilities of the students, the research cell is one such
platform for transforming the potentialities of our students.
The best two practices which contribute to the achievement of the institutional
objectives and quality improvement of the core activities of the college are the
following; Personality development and moral education, Research and
Development-International collaboration. Value education is one of the
strongest pillars of the Biyani Group of Colleges. To show our gratitude and
faith in Maa Saraswati (Godess of Wisdom), we, at Biyani dedicate our efforts
in the form of Biyani Gaan, which is sung and music played alongwith every
morning before the start of the college in front of the beautiful Hanuman
Temple constructed within the premises of the college. The Gaan has imbibed
so well in the minds and hearts of every student and the faculty that reminds
our objectives and the responsibilities towards society and huminity.

7.3 Best Practices
7.3.1 Elaborate on any two best practices in the given format at page no. 98,
which have contributed to the achievement of the Institutional
Objectives and/or contributed to the Quality improvement of the core
activities of the college.
The following two best practices are given under the heading
presentation of best practice at Page no.
1. Personality Development and Moral Education
2. Research & Development- International Collaboration
1. Title of the Practice:
Personality Development & Moral Education:
The Institution focuses on value-base education with the aim of
developing holistically health attitude in our students. The Institution
not only believes in empowering youth with technology knowledge but
also developing their personalities in such a fashion that they can face
the challenges of the world. Moral education is as important as
academic education. Our students are enthused with positivity as
enthusiasm and Positive mind set play a vital road in making one
successful.
2. Goal:
The aim of the Institution is a qualitative overall development of the
students to prepare them for the competitive modern world.
3. The Context:
The Institution aims at empowering the youth to discover their
potential who possess knowledge and confidence to keep pace with the
rapidly changing world and increasing competition without losing
traces of our traditions, humanity, spirituality and the purpose of
184
existence. Education is the manifestation of divine perfection already
existence in human being. It is a process by which and individual
learns how to adapt himself to physical, social and spiritual
environment gradually in various ways. In this process, training
enables the individual to enhance their skills in their Endeavour and in
a sympathetic manner. The modern academic curriculum provides for
empowering students with latest technological and literary knowledge
but there is no mechanism or curriculum where a student can seek
guidance and approach towards moral and ethical pursuits. The present
environment of the educational institutions all over the country is not
very conducive to focus on moral based education it is difficult to
enthused students towards the ethical education. However our
institution has blended the academic curriculum with personality
development and moral education. In the holistic personality
development of the student it is not only important to impart him with
a latest technological equipments and instruments such as e-learning
but at the same time it is essential to inculcate moral values in the
students. It is in this endeavor that the BGC is emphasizing on moral
education along with modern academic education.
4. The Practice:
We at the BGC has developed a curriculum which is not only involved
the syllabi of various courses run by the college under the affiliation of
University of Rajasthan but has introduced some of the add-on courses
which are important for a student to have knowledge about such
courses. These add-on courses include Personality Enhancement
Program (PEP) and Industry Oriented Program (IOP). The PEP & IOP
are essential and integral part of the curriculum adopted at BGC. These
are conducted throughout the year for the overall enhancement of the
personality of the students. Eminent professionals and speakers as well
as Celebrities from Bollywood etc are invited to interact with the
students. The emphasis is laid on soft skills to improve the Professional
& Personal Competence of the students. The wide array and
assortments of topics chosen for PEP sessions ranging from developing
a positive attitude, table manners, Business etiquettes, Dressing Sense,
Interview Skills, Group discussions, Life Skills and presentation skills
etc. The Industrial Visits by the Students provide them an opportunity
of direct exposure to the work place, Shop floors and Assembly lines,
along with interactive sessions with industry personnels, helps in
clarification of many concepts, issues and doubts of students from all
streams.
Under the personality development programme the institution offers
certificate programs which is directly useful to the students to enhance
their interactual knowledge to improve soft skills and for effective
185
communication. Keeping pace with the knowledge based e-learning
system; the college provides training & certification in a wide
spectrum of competencies, helping students to acquire skills in various
areas.
The BGC has developed a India‟s #1 Education Web Portal
www.Gurukpo.com, which contains updated study material with expert
videos and universities question papers. It also has nearly 2000 plus
blogs developed by expert educationist and inter actual faculty
members. The college conducts an International level Certification
course in Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) which inculcate basic
computer skills in the students. Tally programme aims to bring
standardization in the pursuit of excellence in education stream. It is
software which develops skills in financial and accounting domain.
The BGC has unique distinction of imparting moral education among
the students. The enchanting of Gayatri Mantra throughout the day
long through the audio music system at the reception of the college
gives an impression of ethnicity to the visitors. The Morning Prayer in
front of Guru Hanuman Temple gives an impression of spirituality
among the students. The student oath also emphasis not only on
acquiring knowledge and skill but also adhere to the Principals of truth
and integrity. Thus it blends modernity with traditional values to
become a successful and devoted citizen, student & Individual. The
Books written by Director, Academics Prof. Sanjay Biyani viz., You
can Succeed (Part 1 & 2), How to Strengthen Mind through Positivity,
Why should I say Thank You and Love Feelings are everything are
some of the motivational books on inspirational and positive notion.
These books are conceptualized to make the student & faculty
members to adopt a positive and confident outlook towards life. The
college has started the concept of mentorship with the aim of
strengthening the inter personal relationship between students and
teachers. The mentor provides support, guidance and education to the
mentee during their difficult period, assistance during and new
experience and guidance for taking important decisions.
5. Evidence of Success:
The Add-on Courses with the regular academic courses are immensely
successful as every student is taking keen interest in these courses such
as PEP, IOP, MOS and Tally. The enrollment of students in these add-
on courses is rising year after year showing successfulness of the
programme. The books written by Prof. Sanjay Biyani on Moral
education and Positivity has been taken by the students and guardians
at hand. The students (mentees) have responded are dentally by
186
showing keen interest through regular participation in mentorship
classes and discussing their objectives, experiences and grievances.
6. Problems encountered and resources required:
In some of the cases the students refrain from attending morning
prayers. Some of the certification courses are need to be updated to
incorporate the latest technological advancement. The GuruKpo has
proved to be immensely successful however it needs huge amount of
financial resources which sometimes becomes a constraint in updating
and revising the courses of study.
7. Notes (Optional):
The BGC offers an extremely conducive atmosphere of learning
academic as well as moral education. The students have shown keen
interest in various value based education activities which can be
adopted by other educational institutions. It is highlighted that the
gurukpo educational web portal, which is available free of cost, should
be encouraged to be used by other educational Institutions of the
country.
1. Title of the Practice:
Research and Development: International Collaboration:
The Institution‟s motto is to foster a vision that makes students aware
of their potential impact on a global society and lead India to become a
leader in the global knowledge economy.
2. Goal:
The Institution aims at National, International tie-ups with prestige
Universities for fostering research work and providing a platform to
students for International learning & exposure.
3. The Context:
Biyani Group of Colleges provides an optimum environment for
students to do not just have academic aspirations, but also a scientific
reason. The world is changing rapidly and the scientist and Engineers
are people who will lead in the years to come. With this awareness, the
BGC has decided to deviate from the traditional education system and
encourage laboratory based practical research. It is that ultimate
objective of the Institution that the Institution together with students
187
can enhance the potential and help India to became a world leader in
science & technology.
We at BGC have thought that what should be done to ensure our future
demands like clean water, good nutrition, better medicine, affordable
health care services to enhance the quality of life on this earth. The
solution is “Technopreneurs” (an entrepreneur involved with high
technology) are critically important and indeed the real source of
power in today‟s knowledge-based economy. But, how engineering the
future of a student is processed? Traditional and conventional
university academic curriculums lack the teaching methods to turn
today‟s students into creative, innovative, visionary global leaders.
Therefore, it becomes essential to design an „interdisciplinary
curriculum‟ with an optimal mix of knowledge and professional skills
to transform the young minds and build a sustainable society.
Aiming at „Structuring of Knowledge‟, Biyani‟s take the initiative in
promoting structural reforms of wide academic areas based on
industry-academia collaborations and helping students to define and
shape their career in an increasingly competitive world. The Institution
aim at to educate and train future generations of scientists, engineers
and technologists through developing collaboration agreements with
leading universities and the private sector around the world.
4. The Practice:
The BGC has recently developed prestigious collaborative relationship
in research and development
With the University of Tokyo (Japan), Saitama University (Japan),
University of Manchester (UK),
Keio Business School (Japan), Akita Prefectural University (Japan),
Japan Advanced Institute of
Science & Technology (Japan); Lincoln University College, Malaysia
etc.
Apart from conducting collaborative research projects we have
student/faculty exchange program with Japan. Every year 5 students
from BGC are sent to various universities in Japan who are enrolled
there for their masters/Ph.D. Program. For last 5 years the institution
organizing Indo-Japan short internship exchange course program in
which students from Japan visit BGC and learn about curriculum ,
language, culture of this country.
The BGC has been organizing the India Japan bilateral conference-
BICON. The 9th
BICON was organized between Oct. 12 & 17, 2014.
188
In collaboration with Japan Advanced Institute of Science &
Technology.
5. Evidence of Success:
Since 2006 the BCG has been involved in organizing an annual
international conference known as BICON. In collaboration with
Japan Advanced Institute of Science & Technology (JAIST).
The 9th Biyani‟s International Conference (BICON-2014) was hosted
by the BGC on October 12-17, 2014, which encompassed of five
annual co-located symposiums, each specialized in their domains,
specific knowledge areas, comprising (i) Science and Engineering, (ii)
Information Technology (iii) Commerce and Management, (iv) Social
Sciences and (vi) Education. This 6-day event, consisted of total 12
plenary presentations (2 daily) by leading figures from their
specialized fields and total 15 technical sessions, containing 30 invited
talks and 30 young researchers talk selected from rigorously refereed
submitted papers. There were poster presentations, panel discussions
and commercial exhibits. As a special feature, this event served as a
platform for young students/scientists to have face-to-face interaction
and grasp future career opportunities for the distinctive institutes in
India (IITs, IIMs) and Japan (JAIST).
The BGC Summer Internship Programme (SIP) and Indo-Japanese
Student Exchange Programme are very popular and students who have
had the opportunity to visit Japan, through the BGC, have learnt a lot
enriched their personalities immensely. Every year the scientific fervor
is getting more intense, and our research scenario is progressing by
leaps and bounds. Under the students and faculty international
exchange programme, more than 40 students and 7 faculty members
from BGC visited Japan so far. Similarly, 5 students and more than 30
faculty members from Japan visited BGC. Under JENESYS
programme 5 students from BGC will visit Japan.
The BGC has recently organized India-Japan short Internship exchange
course program between February 15 & 21, 2015. In which 4 Japanese
students (3 male, 1 Female) and 1 faculty member participated.
The some of the ongoing collaborative research projects are as follows:
Cancer Project (University of Tokyo/University of Rajasthan);
Bioremediation Project (University of Tokyo/ Delhi University); GP-
Fungi Project (Saitama University/University of Rajasthan); Bio-ID
Project (Saitama University/SMS Medical College) etc.
189
6. Problems encountered and resources required:
There are some problems relating to academic curriculum as well as
administrative ones. Financial difficulties are the main hurdles in the
path of international collaborative research efforts. Majority of
intelligent students having research aptitude are not sufficiently
endowed with financial resources. Even the educational loan facility
offered by the commercial banks to such young budding students is not
free from red tapism, delays and corrupt practices. The Curriculum, as
developed and implemented by the affiliating University (i.e.,
University of Rajasthan), is not updated and lack latest syllabi. Such
curriculum only encourages bookish knowledge.
7. Notes (Optional):
The Biyani Girls College, Jaipur is perhaps only the affiliating Private
College in the State of Rajasthan which has an ambitious program of
International Collaboration with large number of Universities and
Research Institutions of Japan, U.K., U.S etc. as well as some of the
premier Institution of India in the field of Research & Development.
The BICON, an annual International Conference is the distinctive
feature of the college. Which needs to be replicated by other
Institutions. The college offers research opportunities to the students
who are willing to persue their research in different parts of the world.
The BGC organizes short internship exchange course program with
some universities of Japan.
