PREFACE

The Government First Grade College, Pandavapura, established in the academic year

2007-08, has been an important contributor to education and empowerment of rural students

in and around Pandavapurataluk. The College, with its focus on its Vision, Mission and

Goal, is emerging as a premier institution since its establishment. To begin with, the College

introduced Arts,Science, Commerce and Management programmes.

At present, the College is in its own building with two satellite campuses. A few of the Arts

and Commerce classes are held in the satellite campuses. The College has an active website

and IQAC. An efficient, well-qualified and dedicated staff along with the best administrative

faculty has been the institution‘s strength and this, in turn, has contributed to a good

teaching-learning environment. Although the College is in the developing stage, it has

excelled in many ways, in terms of quality as also admissions. The students too, have

brought laurels to the College.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Pandavapura is a town in Mandya District in Karnataka. It is the administrative (Taluk)

centre of Pandavapurataluk. Mythologically this town used to be called ―Pandavapura‖

meaning ‗a place which gave shelter to Pandavas and their mother. It is 28 kilometers away

from Mysuru. It is located on the State Highway of Mysore to Bidar. The college is

established in 2007 to cater to the educational needs of rural students. It helped rural girls to

seek higher education at their door-step. It is a remarkable thing because if not for this

college, higher education would have been a mirage to these rural girls. It has grown from

year to year and now it offers undergraduate courses in Arts and Humanities, Pure Sciences

and Commerce and Management. This college which started with a humble strength of 157

students in 2007 has risen to 736 in 2013-14. The Institute has to its credit well qualified,

dedicated staff who not only teach the concerned subjects, but also act as mentors to students.

Prof. Siddaramu, who has a good teaching experience, is currently leading the college with

his able administration.

As the present campus of 50/200 yards is insufficient to cater to the growing needs of

the students, attempts are made to acquire a spacious site of 10 acres that can answer

theneeds.

The strength of the Institution is its qualified and committed faculty members,

industrious administrative staff, the various Programmes and Cells funded by State

Government, good academic ambience and the enthusiastic students. The College has always

been in the frontline in fulfilling its social objectives in terms of educational attainments and

producing quality individuals. The strength of the students at present is 662 and the strength

of the faculty is 46 (14 PermanentStaff+ 32 Guest Faculty) with 4 non-teaching staff. 04

among the teaching staff members are Doctorate holders, 03 of them are pursuing PhD,12 of

them have M.Phil degree and 12 of them have qualified in the NET/SLET examinations.

The College has prepared Self Study Report with relevant information on its notable

programmes under each criterion.

The highlights of the criteria-wise analysis is as follows:

Having completed 7 years of valuable educational service, the college now offers

degree programmes in Arts, Commerce, Management and Science at the Under graduate

level to meet the needs of the rural youth. The college is affiliated to the Mysore University

and follows the Semester Scheme pattern. The university updates the syllabus as and when

required and our Institution follows its curriculum strictly. The admission to various courses

is made in accordance with the regulations specified by Government of Karnataka and

Mysore University. The primary objective of the Institution is to enable the students to cope

with the demands of the contemporary global scenario through effective transaction of the

curricular and co-curricular aspects. Academic excellence, personality development and

social orientation are our guiding principles.

Our objective is to provide quality education to the rural youth, hailing mostly from

the farming class who belong to marginalized and weaker sections of the society and

transform them into better individuals so that they contribute constructively towards national

goals by upholding the values of secularism, national integration and social commitment. The

objectives of the College are made known to the stakeholders through the College website

and College prospectus. To implement the curriculum effectively enrichment programmes

such as Workshops, special lectures, group discussions, seminars, village camps, industrial

visits, etc., are organized.

According to the rules and regulations of the University and the State Government,

the College maintains transparency in the admission process as the process of admission is

fully computerized. There is an Admission Committee in the College. It scrutinizes all the

admission forms of aspiring student and takes due care of the norms prescribed by the State

Government and the affiliating university regarding the eligibility of candidates. The

admission committee members conduct counseling and help the students in the admission

process. The students are admitted on first come first served basis.

IQAC contributes to improve the teaching–learning process by planning for new

courses at UG level, introducing more teaching aids to improve the teaching–learning process

and encourage innovative practices. It facilitates support for interdisciplinary programme and

faculty development programme. Teachers are evaluated by students once a year. Feedback is

processed and analyzed by the Principal; later, the results are intimated personally to the

teachers. Suggestions are given by the Principal, if necessary.

The College consists of a good number of PhD scholars contributing to establishing a

research culture among the staff and the students. Special lecture, student seminar and

workshops are conducted frequently by the concerned departments. The Institution has been

recognized under 2(f) of the UGC Act and is processing the inclusion of this Institution under

12(b) of UGC act. With the inclusion, many of the faculty members who are very enthusiastic

to undertake research activities in their respective areas will be provided opportunities to

pursue their zeal for research.

Our College is well equipped with library, laboratories, furniture and equipments and

sports ground. The College is providing an ample opportunity to the students to participate in

various extracurricular activities, sports, NSS, Red ribbon club, etc. Computers are freely

accessible to the students to enhance their job skills. Library with huge quantum of books is

kept open access to borrow books. The partially automated library is to be shortly switched

over to completely automated one with maximum access to the library collection. Current

information, placements and career development programme will be immediately displayed

on the notice board.

Counseling cell takes active part in resolving the problems of the students through

counseling and guidance. A good number of students attending job mela organized by

Corporate Sectors and other financial institutions have succeeded in getting job. The College

has a Alumni Association and its activities have been a major contribution for academic

growth. The percentage of students‘ progress from UG to PG is gradually increasing. Faculty

members of the College personally counsel and encourage the students as Class mentors and

facilitate them for progression towards higher level of education and employment.

The College has its own vision and mission. The Principal in consultation with the

staff formulates plans and executes timely policies for the uplift of academic curriculum. He

establishes a cordial relationship among the staff and brings harmony which is utmost

important for the effective implementation of quality plans and policies. Every department in

the college prepares its own SWOC analysis. Accordingly each department is functioning at

its best efforts. Decentralized administration and effective communication has helped the

Institution to grow in a short span of time. Intimacy between teachers and students has also

been a contributing factor to a greater extent of quality education. The College is planning to

extend its advanced courses in the days to come.

The Institution has planted trees to have greenery in the campus. Uniform as a dress

code has been introduced from the year 2013-14 to inculcate discipline among the students

and cultivate an impression of equality among them irrespective of their socio-economic

background.

Methodology:

SWOC analysis is made on the basis of feedback from stakeholders such as CDC members, parents, Alumni and the community at large, through feedback, group discussions and interactions with faculty members.

Strength:

Well experienced, highly qualified, duty-conscious, efficient faculty members.

Around 30% of the faculty members in our college are PhD holders.

Teachers are encouraged to pursue research. About 33% of the faculty members are already involved in research activities.

Collective leadership and teamwork is the cornerstone for the growth of our College.

Teacher-Student ratio is 1:30 and this has culminated in academic excellence due to the individual attention that is given by the teacher.

A functional hostel building for students is run by the social welfare department.

The College has active cell of NSS unit with the motive to serve the society and contribute to the economy.

The technical, administrative and support staff are computer literates and professionally qualified.

Adopting latest methodology for nurturing weaker students through remedial and

spoken English classes.

Our College has facilities such as—good computer lab, library with good number of books and well-equipped laboratory to run the UG Program.

Supportive and encouraging College Development Council.

Good network with Institutes of importance and Industries.

Mixed ability students are admitted to our College and while going out as output, they

bring laurels to our Institution with good marks and distinction.

Existence of placement cell to support the students pursuing higher education and help them in getting employment.

Existence of registered alumni and its support for academic activities.

Weakness:

Basic infrastructure such as adequate number of class rooms, an auditorium, science

labs, medical care unit, smart classrooms, round the clock reading facility, waiting

rooms, counseling room and NSS room, are, no doubt, the need of the hour for our

Institution.

Lack of academic autonomy makes the college dependent on university.

Insufficient LAN, Wi-Fi and Internet facilities pose problems to staff and students.

Lack of language lab to impart soft skills training is a major drawback.

Need for qualified and technical assistance and support staff for the laboratories and

departments is acute.

Lack of playground, full-fledged gymnasium and indoor games is felt by the sports

lovers.

Likewise, the automation of library and office is also a dire requirement.

As the Courses are conducted in three different buildings, lack of coordination among

students as well as faculty is another setback to the teaching-learning process.

There is a need for adequate faculty in the department of Commerce and

Management, Geography, Economics and Computer Science.

Planned faculty development, technical and support staff development and also

training have to be implemented.

Opportunities:

Post-Graduation Center/ Course/Programs are proposed in the near future.

Research Center, too, needs to be established.

The College has the advantage of having a few Industries in the vicinity.

Disadvantage, if any, is hoped to be turned into strength/Opportunities so as to make

this College a Knowledge Center and a temple of learning.

Student‘s and teacher‘s Exchange Program with other Colleges are proposed.

It is hoped to increase the strength of the students.

Institute also proposes to start faculty/Staff Development Center.

Challenges/Threats:

Availability of competent faculty is a basic requirement for the Success of the

teaching-learning process.

Attractive terms and conditions offered by Industries to meritorious students are

resulting in the reduction of availability of students for higher studies.

Global recession has also had its impact on higher education.

Limited land area is an impediment to the growth of our Institution.

Our College is located in a rural area. However, the basic amenities are yet to be

provided.

Frequent transfer of teachers is a challenge to the interest of students.

It is a challenge to build a network with parents for the holistic development of

students.

It is challenge to teach students coming from poverty ridden agricultural background.

Our Future Plans

The Institution is looking forward to acquiring a specious land of 10 acres to make

possible future development of the college, after which the following resolutions have

been chalked out for immediate implementation:

To have a full-fledged building.

To have high-tech classrooms with smart boards.

To have Audio-Visual room.

To have a Conference hall for conducting Special lectures, Seminars, Power Point

Presentations, Workshops, etc.

To provide a Health Centre for the convenience of rural youth as also to address their

health problems

To have a Counseling Centre.

To introduce new selected global-oriented streams of Post Graduate Courses

To provide women students with hostel facilities

In short, since the College is in a rural area, with all the facilities listed above, the

Institution is hopeful of getting still better strength in future.

Inferences:

Our College can, certainly, become one of the best Institutions sought after by the

student community, in the days to come.

Proper funding facilities, at the earliest, can help the Institution overcome the

prevailing disadvantages.

Introduction of P.G. Courses can help elevate the level of learning.

6.1.2 What is the role of top management, Principal and Faculty in design and

implementation of its quality policy and plans?

The role of the Department of Collegiate Education (DCE) in Karnataka, as the top

management, is to communicate the information and instruct the Principal regarding his

responsibilities & roles through circulars, e-mail, SMS as well as personal meetings held at

the office of the DCE. The information thus communicated is, in turn, brought to the notice

of the teaching and non-teaching staff members through meetings & circulars.

* The Principal forms various committees in the college for the smooth functioning of the

college.

* The college functions as per the directions given by the DCE either directly or through Joint

Director of Collegiate Education, Mysore Region.

* The rules and regulations as prescribed in the Karnataka State Civil Services Rules (KCSR)

are strictly followed.

* The DCE in Karnataka gets regular feedbacks from the Colleges through emails, letters

about the status and the activities of the College. The DCE situated at Bangalore reviews the

activities of the institution through these feedbacks.

6.1.3 What is the involvement of the leadership in ensuring?

The policy statements and action plans for fulfillment of the stated mission

Formulation of action plans for all operations and incorporating the same into the

institutional strategic plan

Interaction with stakeholders

Proper support for policy and planning through need analysis, research inputs and

consultations with the stakeholders

Reinforcing the culture of excellence

Champion organizational change

The College ensures the policy statements and action plans given in the stated vision

and mission in the following manner:

Ensuring all eligible candidates seeking admission are given admission

Providing Library books



Providing appropriate educational environment

Interacting with students about their difficulties in learning, if any, and taking

necessary actions to overcome them

Assessing and Reviewing the students‘ performances

Teachers‘ evaluation by students on a regular basis

Monitoring the slow learners and assigning special tasks to fast learners

Our goal is to prepare the students in such a way that they learn to turn challenges into

opportunities by exploring all the possibilities. In fact, our programmes are planned after

many staff meetings in a pro-productive manner, bearing the ground reality in mind.

According to the guidelines of higher authorities, different committees are formed to take

care of different activities in the College. With the introduction of semester scheme, the

students have to be assessed continuously. The Institution organizes orientation programme

to the new-comers soon after admissions, to enlighten the students on different aspects of the

college, its rules and regulations. The Principal is available to the students during the working

hours, in person and also over the phone.

* The affiliated University has always been initiating new programmes in order to maintain

quality. It has introduced internal assessment scheme. All the departments assess the students

based on their performances in periodical tests, assignment and skill development activities.

* In recent years, there have been many organizational changes in the educational set up.

Hence, the faculty is not only accountable to the DCE but also to the affiliating University,

College Development Council (CDC) and ultimately to its stakeholders.

In short, the process of teaching and learning is not only limited to making the

students get through the examination and become graduates but also in making them

employable and socially responsive citizens having equipped them with all the required

qualities expected for building a healthy society and these, no doubt ensuresthe achievement

of the institution‘s mission and vision.



6.1.4 What are the procedures adopted by the institution to monitor and evaluate

policies and plans of the institution for effective implementation and

improvement from time to time?

Various committees are constituted under the leadership of the principal at the

beginning of the academic year. From time to time meetings of the concerned committees are

held to discuss and monitor the plans and policies of the institution for the effective

implementation. The IQAC collects the required information in the form of feedback from

the final year students and alumni and acts on the feedback given by them. Staff and

departmental meetings are held on a regular basis to monitor the progress of the activities in

the respective departments.

6.1.5 Give details of the academic leadership provided to the faculty by the top

management.

The top management provides academic leadership to the faculty in the following

ways:

The Heads of the Departments monitor the academic activities of their respective

departments and they are managed very efficiently and effectively;

All the faculty members have the free hand to decide on the selection of

books/equipment required for the development of their departments;

Faculty are encouraged to adopt different pedagogical methods for facilitating

learning in students;

The IQAC and the Head of the Institution take care to see that all the activities are

done effectively.



6.1.6 How does the college groom leadership at various levels?

The Institution is a learning ground where the students acquire many qualities during

their stay in the College. The students learn to convert challenges into opportunities in the

course of their learning. Meritorious students are nominated as leaders with different posts to

various committees such as Cultural Association, NSS and Sports.

Each class has a Class Representative (CR). The CRs take the responsibility of

conveying the problems of their classmates and shoulder the responsibility of

organizing all the activities in the college with the help of their classmates. In sports

activities too, they learn leadership qualities by being the captain of different teams.

The students play a key role while conducting NSS activities. Added to this they do

play a major role during educational tours.

They themselves organize Teachers‘ day, Women‘s day, public awareness

programmes like Environment day, Aids Awareness, Blood Grouping & Health

Checkup, Eye Checkup, etc.

Every faculty member mandatorily serves in an assignment related to academic/extra-

curricular activity. This also follows the rotation system, thereby, every staff is made

responsible.

Each of the faculty members gets the chance to work as the convener of one or several

committees formed in the college. He/She is expected to plan and execute the

activities of committee with the assistance from other members of the committee.

The administrative staff of the college too is given various responsibilities. They too

are deputed to undergo various training programmes that help them acquire leadership

skills.

6.1.7 How does the college delegate authority and provide operational autonomy to the

departments / units of the institution and work towards decentralized

governance system?

Although the Principal works as the captain of the college, he understands that

delegation of authority is more effective in governance. Various departments of the college

are given fair amount of autonomy in their functioning. The principal doesn‘t interfere in the



day to day working of the departments. Every staff member clearly understands his/her role

and responsibilities in the college and works towards the overall development of the college.

Coordinators of various committees are given autonomy for the implementation of the

action plan of their respective committees.

Seminars/programmes



CHALLENGES

(1) Students‘ drop-out may increase owing to failing in the 1st

semester.

bright students.

converting them to fit the needs of the present generation. The texts

presently prescribed are not catering to today‘s needs of the students.

FUTURE PLANS

To increase intake of students for Optional English

To set up language lab

To take community oriented activities involving secondary school teachers.

To organize national level conference and workshops.

To introduce students to Dhwanya Lokha in Mysore.

Mr. Karthik


The Teaching method adopted in the class room is very effective. It involves the

students in seminars, group discussions and other activities. It is a student centric approach,

which makes the students enjoy the class room activities.

The department inaugurated the commerce and management forum for the students

with the objective of providing practical orientation to student while not only focusing on the

theoretical aspects of the syllabus but also linking it with the practicalities and procedures

involved with the subject. This forum serves as a platform to develop competencies in the

students. Apart from theoretical learning in the classroom the students of these courses are

expected to improve their communication and other soft skills.


The department has co- operated with institution in all it`s out reaching activities




Strength:

Eminent and good teaching faculty

Has a good number of reference books related to Commerce and Management.

Increase in the intake of students

The total student strength of college is 662 out of the total strength 341

students are of Commerce and Management.

Good results with distinctions

Weakness:

Most of the students come from rural area so they are very weak in English language.


Financial support is an impediment for arranging academic activities to students

Lack of permanent Teachers


No Department Library

Opportunities:

companies have started absorbing a good number of Commerce Students is a good sign.

Challenges:

extra effort to bring them on par with the advanced students.
