PREFACE
The Ramanujan College, formerly known as Deshbandhu College (Evening) was

established in 1958 by the Ministry of Rehabilitation, Government of India, in the
memory of Late Lala Deshbandhu Gupta, a patriot who had dedicated his life to
the national freedom struggle. The Deshbandhu College (Evening) operated
from the premises of the Deshbandhu College that functioned in the morning
hours. Originally run by the Ministry of Rehabilitation and Education as a men's
College, Deshbandhu College (Evening) became a co-educational institution in
1994. This College, which is 100% funded by the University Grants Commission
(UGC) has been maintained by the University of Delhi since 1972.
Till the early 90's the College catered to a large number of students who were
gainfully employed in the daytime and pursued their studies in the convenience
provided by an evening College. During its initial years the College used to
function in the late evening hours and developed as a reputed College especially
in the field of Commerce studies. Other than B. Com (Honours) and B.Com, the
College offered B.A. Programme and Honours courses in English, Hindi and
Political Science to its students. The College was also unique because it offered
the study of regional languages: Punjabi, Bengali and Sindhi. Late Dr. M.L.
Jotwani, an eminent scholar of Sindhi literature and language was a member of
the College teaching faculty and did the College proud when he received the
Padma Shri in 2003.
In spite of being an evening College that was sharing space and infrastructure
with another College, Deshbandhu College (Evening) regularly produced good
results in academics and sports. Champion athletes, especially in the fields of
power lifting and weight lifting, won University, state and national level acclaim.
In the year 2010, the College got a new identity when the University of Delhi
along with UGC and the MHRD renamed Deshbandhu College (Evening) as
Ramanujan College, and allocated separate space of seven acres of land within
the existing College campus in Kalkaji, New Delhi. From an evening College it
become a full-fledged morning College in 2012. The College was given a go
ahead to design and construct an independent building and create infrastructure
of its own.
We are proud that our College is named after Srinivasa Aiyangar Ramanujan
(1887-1920) the legendary Indian mathematician, who during his short lifetime
compiled nearly 3900 mathematical results that made him one of the world's
greatest-ever mathematical genius.
Though the plans are ready and all permissions and sanctions have been acquired
for the construction of a new building in the land allocated to our College, the
College is yet to get funds to construct its own building. Nevertheless, in the past
four years, we have been able to immensely develop the space and resources
available to us. We have constructed twenty six spacious, well ventilated, ICT
enabled portable cabins and created additional space, infrastructure and
facilities for more class rooms, auditorium and laboratories. We are in the
process of constructing ten additional portable cabins. Additional staff rooms,
extra washrooms, rooms for different centres of academic excellence and a
Ramanujan College, University of Delhi i

renovated library with air conditioned reading rooms have been constructed for
students and teachers.
We have added generators for uninterrupted power supply and augmented our
water supply system and provided continuous RO filtered drinking water for our
students, teachers and the non-teaching staff. Many air-conditioned spaces have
been created in the office, staffroom, library, auditorium and activity halls for the
comfort of all. We have kept the needs of the physically disabled as a priority in
our developmental schemes. Our dependence on shared infrastructure has
reduced considerably through our own efforts.
Today, the Ramanujan College offers Honours degree courses in Commerce,

Mathematics, Computer Science, Economics, Statistics, Psychology, English,
Hindi and Political Science. It continues to offer B.A. Programme and B.Com
courses as before. It is the third largest College for Commerce education in the
University of Delhi. The College looks forward to a large expansion which is in
tune with contemporary academic and professional requirements of our country.
In the near future we seek to introduce Honours courses in Journalism in English,
History, Bachelor of Business Studies (BBS) and Philosophy. We have also
applied to the UGC for eight proposed programmes under the Deen Dayal
Upadhyay Centres for Knowledge Acuisition and Upgradation of Skilled
Human Abilities and Livelihood (KAUSHAL) scheme. The College has a
highly qualified and experienced faculty some of whom are also engaged in post
graduate teaching at the University. A large number of our teachers have original
published academic and creative work in reputed national and international
journals. Departments of the College regularly organise seminars, workshops
and special lectures to benefit both students and teachers. We endeavour to make
our College a centre for excellence in interdisciplinary studies and research.
The College has a well stocked, information technology enabled and

computerized library, with about 30,000 books including the latest publication
and journals in all the subjects taught in the College. This, together with state-of-
the-art computer labs, offers students access to new horizons of learning.
A number of academic prizes and scholarships are being offered to meritorious

students. Financial assistance in the form of fee-concession is given to deserving
and needy students. Our large playground and good facilities for sports have
helped us to maintain a tradition of excellence in sports. Our sportspersons
continue to win various prizes at the University, Delhi State and national levels.
One of the new innovative initiatives has been the setting up of the Centre for
Ethics and Values in 2010. Keeping in mind the pressing need to mould a socially
concerned and conscientious student with moral and ethical uprightness, this
centre blends its activities with the regular academic and cultural programmes of
the College. Other than organising lectures, debates and discussions, the Centre
encourages introspection and positive thinking and has creatively involved the
students through internship, summer training, poster making, theatre, art and
music, in ideas related to ethics and morality. The Centre has organised two
international and one national level seminars and has published three volumes of
the International Journal of Applied Ethics. The Centre has also published a book
entitled Ethics in Governance (2011).
Ramanujan College, University of Delhi ii

The College campus is a lively hub of both academic and co-curricular activities
which are meant to nurture the all-round development of the students. The
annual cultural festival of the College JOSH, which attracts students from
Colleges across the city, is a popular event where students showcase their talents
in music, dance, theatre, oration and art and craft. The College has a theatre
group Jazba that has been winning acclaim for their socially relevant theatre
presentation. Their evocative street play called Bhook dealing with the issues of
hunger in our country won the 'Sahitya Kala Parishad Award' for the best street
play in their inter-college competition in 2015. They have also produced plays
dealing with consumer awareness for the Ministry of Consumer Affairs. The
film appreciation club of the College First Cut cultivates the talents of future film
makers and has produced a number of well made short films. We believe the
students of the College are its real assets, giving it strength and character.
The Ramanujan College won the 'Good Practices Award' in 2014 at the annual
festival of the University of Delhi – Antardhvani. The College is aspiring for a
future of growth and development. It seeks to make its place as a foremost
academic institution in the country.
This Self Study Report follows the guidelines of the National Assessment and
Accreditation Council's (NAAC) Manual for Self Study Report for Constituent
Colleges. The entire teaching faculty and the non-teaching staff of the College
have worked very hard in the preparation of this report. We have made an
introspective and honest self study of our college and recorded it in the various
sections and units of this report. I am privileged to submit this report to the
National Assessment and Accreditation Council for assessment and accreditation
of the institution.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Ramanujan College, which began as Deshbandhu College (Evening) in

1958, remained for more than five decades a college that functioned only in the
latter half of the day. In spite of the fact that the College had a reputation of being a
good educational institute that catered to the academic needs of the students who
were employed during the day time, the College was never taken as seriously as a
full-time morning college generally is. It was only in 2010, when Deshbandhu
College (Evening) was renamed as Ramanujan College and was elevated to the
status of a full-time morning college with the promise of a building of its own that
a surge of enthusiasm and renewed commitment galvanized the College towards
greater heights.
The approach to develop the College was two pronged. Firstly, the College
sought to provide itself with good infrastructural facilities in terms of more
classrooms, a multipurpose auditorium, seminar and conference halls and an
uninterrupted and adequate electricity and water supply. The overall ambiance of
the college was to be enhanced with an aesthetically pleasing environment
constituting lawns, gardens and pathways. The second initiative was to expand
the academic spectrum of the College through the introduction of new courses,
centers of excellence and providing the students with the opportunity of various
extracurricular activities.
In the past five years, much of the developmental objectives of the College have
been achieved despite the fact that we have not received funds to proceed with the
construction of the new College building, though plans and permission have been
sanctioned and obtained for it.
The College offers courses in Commerce, Humanities and Science. The College
has a faculty of 97 teachers (permanent, ad-hoc and part time), 53 non-teaching
staff and 2 technical staff, and about 2,000 students.
Presented below are the brief summaries of the seven criteria of evaluation used
in the Self Study Report:
Criterion I: Curricular Aspects
Inspired by the name of the great mathematician, Srinivasa Aiyangar Ramanujan,

our College adheres to the core values of dedication, hard work and commitment
as encapsulated in the motto of the University of Delhi. The syllabus and
curriculum followed by the College is set by the University of Delhi. Some of
the members of our Faculty are also members of curriculum framing
committees of the University Departments. The College caters to almost 50%
of the students belonging to the economically weaker sections of the society. It is
a challenge to achieve the curriculum objectives, but the teachers of the College
have evolved innovative and effective ways of delivering curriculum content that
is specifically moulded for the students of our College. The College has
provided laptops to all its teachers and all the classrooms are ICT enabled
and the entire campus is Wi-Fi enabled. This has greatly felicitated the
implementation of the curriculum as important online data bases of research
journals, which the College and the University subscribes to, are available in the
Ramanujan College, University of Delhi 1

classroom as an aid to teaching. The faculty regularly sends feedback to the
University Departments regarding the curriculum with suggestions for
restructuring and improvement. With the dynamics of the employment
market in mind and with the intention of providing skill development courses, the
College has introduced three certificate courses: Certificate Course in Human
Rights, Personality and English Enhancement Course and Certificate Course in
French Language. There are plans to introduce four more Honours courses. Now,
the emphasis is on interdisciplinary and experiential pedagogy that
integrates issues of gender, language, environment, human rights and
information technology. The College organises regular seminars, special
lectures, educational excursions and trips along with faculty development
programmes and training modules for the effective implementation of the
curriculum. To evaluate the curriculum delivery and its effectiveness, the
College Internal Quality Assessment Cell (IQAC) has initiated feedback
systems for both students and the faculty. The College is also planning to
introduce an online feedback system for the students from the next academic
year.
Criterion II: Teaching, Learning and Evaluation
The Ramanujan College considers its smooth and efficient admission process as
one of its best practices. This ensures that the students who are admitted to the
College establish a warm bonding with the Institution. This bonding is reflected
in the cordial relations between the teacher and the student, which goes a long
way to ensure a healthy teaching-learning process. In accordance to the rules of
the University of Delhi regarding admissions, the College have seen a steady rise
in its cut-off percentages in the past five years, which means academically better
students are seeking admissions to the College every year. The College
encourages the women students by giving concessions on cut-off percentage
as a part of its admission policy. A large number of students from the
economically weaker section of the society are admitted to the College along
with students from the North Eastern states of the country. The College also
admits differently-abled students and provides them with all the support. The
College helps students with fee concessions, scholarships from the Student's Aid
Fund and remedial classes are organised to bridge the knowledge gaps and
support the marginalised students. The faculty has evolved innovative
approaches for teaching which includes field visits, film screening,
presentations and project work. The computerised library with about 30,000
books is a support to the teaching-learning process with about 500 users
accessing it every day. The time-table is prepared well in advance in the
beginning of an academic session so that the teaching can begin from the very
first day of the session. The syllabus is available on the College website. The
College has a system of feedback and regular assessment meetings in each
Department to ensure effective delivery of the syllabus and evaluate the learning
levels. The College recruits the best of the academic minds and encourages the
teachers to pursue higher academics, research and knowledge upgradation. The
College IAQC monitors the data regarding the performances of the students in
the exams and internal assessments and suggests ways of improvement in the
teaching-learning process. Policies regarding effective implementation of
time-tables, extra classes, internal assessment are set by the IAQC in

consultation with the Departments. For the past few years the College, for
reasons beyond its control, has not been able to recruit permanent faculty and has
appointed ad-hoc and guest faculty. This has certainly affected the teaching-
learning process and we hope that with more appointments of permanent faculty,
the teaching-learning process will be further strengthened.
CRITERION III: Research and Consultancy
As an undergraduate constituent College of the University of Delhi, research

possibilities in the College are limited. Nevertheless, the College promotes and
encourages research by its faculty and tries to inculcate research-oriented
academics for its students. Various FDPs, workshops and seminars are
organized by the College to encourage faculty research. Regular paper
presentations and original project work by the students is an integral part of the
pedagogic process in the College. The College has been sanctioned three
Innovation Projects, which have research components in it, by the
University of Delhi. With the introduction of the Robotics and Artificial
Intelligence Laboratory and the Ramanujan Centre for Applied
Mathematics and Research, the College is now moving into areas of
advanced research. Individually, the teachers of the College have done
independent research in their fields and have been regularly presenting and
publishing their research works in books and both national and international
journals. The present faculty has 160 research publications and 66 books to
its credit. The faculty is also engaged in providing their scholarship as resource
to other academic institutions. To keep abreast with the latest in the field, the
College has been inviting imminent speakers and experts from across the country
for special lectures in the College. In the past two years more than 40 such
scholars have visited the College. As a part of inter-disciplinary approaches to
research, the College has been having inter-departmental workshops and
Faculty Development Programmes. The Centre for Ethics and Values plays
a crucial role in promoting extension activities of the College by engaging the
faculty and the students in innovative manners. It is done by liasoning the
Institution with the immediate neighbourhood and the society at large. The
Centre for Ethics and Values has published three volumes of the International
Journal of Applied Ethics. Five members of the faculty have also received awards
and recognition for their research work.
CRITERION IV: Infrastructure and Learning Resources
In the last four years, the College has spent more that Rs. 5 crore on
augmenting its infrastructure and learning resources. The College has
invested considerably in constructing 26 porta-cabins for holding classes and
other activities. We intend to construct another 10 porta-cabins and one more
computer lab for the next academic year. Arrangements for adequate water
supply and electricity has also been made. We have spent almost Rs. 18 lacs in
the financial year 2014-15 on just the purchase and maintenance of
computers. We have 120 computers in our labs and we have distributed 800
computers (laptops) to the students that were given to the College by the
University of Delhi. As a resource, we have added the Ramanujan Centre for
Applied Mathematics and Research, the Robotics and Artificial Intelligence

Laboratory, the Centre for Ethics and Values and the Centre for Human
Rights. We have plans ready for the introduction of a Media Lab in the next
academic year. As a part of developing sports facilities we have created a 400
meter long athletic track and a cricket pitch. We also have a gymnasium and a
yoga room. The renovated air-conditioned hall, with a seating capacity for
150 people, is extensively used for special functions, extracurricular and
cultural activities. The plans and sanctions for the new College building have
been obtained and the construction will begin as soon as the funds are released.
In the financial year 2013-14, the library spent almost Rs. 8 lacs for
purchasing books. There are almost 30, 000 books in the library. The library
is equipped with the latest computer technology for issuing of the books and for
accessing the internet. The library is also connected to data bases of the
University of Delhi.
As infrastructural support and resource the College has constructed ramps,

accessible washrooms, Braille-enabled sign boards and Braille books for the
students and faculty with physical disabilities.
Criterion V: Student Support and Progression
The College every year publishes its Prospectus at the time of admissions,
detailing the aims and objectives of the Institution, and uploads it on the website.
The details regarding the courses and rules and regulations are also mentioned in
the Prospectus. There are a number of Staff Council Committees that are
responsible for various activities of the College. The Institution offers a number
of academic prizes and scholarships to the meritorious students. The College has
a Students Aid Fund through which financial assistance is provided to the
economically weak students. The College provides financial assistance to the
students who represent the College in different extracurricular activities.
Academic support to the students is provided on a regular basis with extra classes
and remedial classes. On Sundays and holidays, general computer training
classes are held for all the students. Classes to train Hindi typing on
computers are also regularly held. The Personality and English Enhancement
Course, the Human Rights Course and Certificate Course in French Language are
added learning incentives to the students, keeping the market demands in mind.
The Computer Science Department and the Mathematics Department also
conduct special computer software training classes. The College in association
with the National Institute of Entrepreneurship and Small Business has
trained over 500 students in various aspects of Entrepreneurship.
The College supports the students in their extracurricular activities and has
societies for dance, music, art, films theatre and debating. It also promotes NCC
and NSS programmes. A large number of students are involved in these activities.
The Annual Cultural Festival – JOSH is a platform for the students to
showcase their talents and skills. The students of the Ramanujan have been
consistently winning prizes at inter-college competitions especially in theatre,
music and film making. The Centre for Ethics and Values does outreach
programmes and involve the students with the larger social issues.

The Department of Physical Education and Sports Sciences has provided
facilities for various sports activities in the college. The talented sports persons
are supported through special dietary supplements, uniform and
equipments. The College bears the expenses for their participation in various
competitions both in the city and outside.
The College Placement Cell regularly invites corporate houses for student
counselling and recruitment. The College has been able to successfully place a
number of its students every year in the private sector.
The College Grievance Redressal Cell and the Sexual Harassment Prevention
Committee keep a strict vigil. In case of complaints, immediate decisions and
actions are taken.
For the past five years, the students of the College have shown improvement in
their performance in the University Examinations. The total number of first
divisions has been rising consistently. More than 50% of our students
secured First Division in the last academic year.
The Ramanujan College alumni meet annually in a gala get together. The
College has begun to take feedback from its alumni in order to create a data
bank of information.
Criterion VI: Governance and Leadership
The Ramanujan College is governed by a Governing Body, which is constituted

by the University of Delhi. The Governing Body is headed by the Chairman. The
College is proud to have many distinguished individuals as its Chairman.
The present Governing Body is extremely supportive of the College's present and
future plans. The Principal of the College provides the leadership and executes
the decisions taken by the Governing Body. The Principal is also the Chairperson
of the College Staff Council and its committees. Most of the activities of the
College are managed by the Staff Council-constituted committees. The
College is managed through a democratic process of collective decision-making
and participative management.
The College is 100% financed by the University of Delhi and the UGC. The
accounts of the College are audited internally by the University of Delhi and
by the CAG externally. The College is bound by the Right to Information Act and
has a Public Information Officer to address all queries filed under the RTI. The
College has acquired the ISO 9001:2008 Certification for Office Proceedings.
Performance appraisal of the faculty is done as per the University guidelines.

With the initiatives of the IQAC, the feedback system from the students and the
faculty has been formalised. The IQAC has been able to initiate reformative
processes within the College, particularly in the area of teaching-learning
and evaluation practices.
Criterion VII: Innovations and Best Practices
The Ramanujan College has initiated a number of innovative practises. The focus
has been on the environment and the society. The College showcases some of its

most innovative ideas as best practices. In the absence of a building due to non
availability of funds, the College has built a campus of its own by
constructing 26 porta-cabins and creating a pleasing environment with
pathways, gardens and lawns. This way, the College circumvented the problem
of classroom space and was able to expand by introducing new courses and
creating space for labs, activity rooms and centres for promoting excellence.
The College is proud to present the activities of the Centre for Ethics and
Values as one of the best practices. It is indeed a unique venture. The Centre is
has successfully integrated ethical and moral values in the students through inter-
disciplinary creative and imaginative activities that involve the entire college
community.
The College regards its reformed, extremely efficient and student-friendly

admission process as another of its best practices. The College believes that the
students seeking admission must be given the highest priority and made to feel
comfortable and welcome. The College has evolved a very simple but efficient
admission process with the help of technology and the support of its staff.
The College constantly endeavours to make its campus eco-friendly. Waste

management, rain water harvesting, tree plantation and regular cleanliness
drives are central to the Institution's constant effort towards keeping the
College campus clean and healthy.

SWOC ANAYLYSIS
STRENGTHS
1. We have a very supportive, encouraging, motivating and cooperative Top

Management and Administration.
2. The College has a highly qualified, dedicated and hard-working teaching

faculty, many of whom are also technically competent.
3. It is our strength that we function with enthusiasm and gusto from the
temporary but spaciously built and information technology-enabled porta
cabins for classes and other activities in absence of the new building for
which funds are awaited.
4. We have highly motivated staff who are always eager to experiment and
innovate, resulting in high academic performance.
5. We face challenges with fortitude.
WEAKNESSES
1. The College needs to have a greater interaction with industry to ensure that
the aspirations of the students find fulfilment. This is required to convert the
knowledge gathered in the College through curriculum into practical skills
that can accomplish the developmental needs of the country.
2. The College also feels the need to establish greater contact with
agencies/institutions outside the College and its parent University for
research purposes. This is also necessary to expand the research interest of
the faculty and to provide them adequate resource support.
3. For the past many years, the process of appointment of teachers has not been a
regular and smooth process in the University of Delhi. This has skewed the
ratio of permanent faculty in relation to the ad-hoc, temporary and guest
faculty. There is an urgent need to increase the percentage of permanent
faculty for a balanced overall growth of the Institution.
OPPORTUNITIES
1. The expansion of the College that is on the cards in the near future is the
biggest opportunity for not only a modern-state-of-the-art infrastructural
facility but also for the introduction of new courses that are the need of the
hour.
2. It is an opportunity to put our minds and abilities together to bridge the

existing knowledge gaps between different sections of our society.
3. In a globalizing world, it is an opportunity to empower our students with the

ability to transform their knowledge into skills and transact these skills to
become responsible citizens of the world.

CHALLENGES
1. It is a challenge to secure adequate funds for the new building.
2. It is a challenge to motivate young minds away from cynicism and

helplessness and inspire them into creative, innovative and imaginative
thinking.
3. It is a challenge to make the youth of today ethically and morally strong with
a conscience and compassion for humanity at large.
4. Since two full-fledged colleges share the same space and building
infrastructure there are challenges in the day to day functioning.

25. Dropout rate in Under Graduate degree programs

Under the University of Delhi examination system a student is given multiple
chances to clear his exam and get a degree even after the expiry of the term of
the course. In such a situation many students of the College appear for exams
after a gap and qualify the course. Therefore, to accurately state the
percentage of dropout rate is almost impossible. Nevertheless, in our
experience we could say that less than 10 % of the enrolled students drop out
and do not complete the course.
26. Unit Cost of Education

1.1.2 Action plans for effective implementation of the curriculum

The curriculum for different subjects taught in the College is set by the various
Departments of the University of Delhi. As a constituent college it follows the
syllabus and curriculum set by the University of Delhi.
In addition, the teachers of the College regularly attend meetings held at the
Departments of the University regarding the curriculum setup/ revision. The
curriculum is intimated by the University to the College through regular
circulars and the University website. The College has also put up the entire
syllabus and curriculum on its website. The College has published a handout that

contains details of the curriculum and syllabus of each subject and department
for ready use and reference.
The Time-Table Committee of the College designs a master time-table that

distributes subject classes, contact/tutorial classes and practical classes in a
manner that makes teaching efficient. Special in-house customized software
designed by the students of the Department of Computer Science is being used to
ensure optimal usage of the available classrooms and design the best suited time-
table for each department. For transparency and efficiency teachers' time-tables
and class time-tables are prominently displayed on the notice boards for students
and is also available College website.
The Departments hold monthly meeting to assess the covered curriculum and
discuss the difficulties the students and teachers may be facing in the classes.
Detailed reports of these meetings are sent to the Principal.
Each class has a class representative and it is his or her duty to report to the
Teacher-In-Charge in case of problems and difficulties being faced in the
teaching-learning process.
1.1.3-1.1.4 Facilitation of curriculum implementation- infrastructure and other

support
The Institution encourages and provides support to its faculty for participating in
Refresher Courses, syllabus making and review committees, curriculum related
workshops and lectures and any other skill development program. The support is
that the College provides due leaves and funds. The teachers also regularly avail
funds and grants for attending seminars and conducting research.
The College has provided laptops to all its teachers and all the classrooms are
Information Technology-enabled. The entire College campus is Wi-Fi equipped.
Thus, access to important online databases of research journals which the
University and the College subscribe to and other academic websites is readily
available within the classroom.
Teachers participated in the three day workshop for curriculum teaching at the
Institute of Life Long Learning (ILLL), University of Delhi. The workshop was
about the new curriculum developed for the Four Year Under Graduate Program
(FYUP) of the University of Delhi.
All the teachers of the College attended a training program for skill development
in computer software which was organized in collaboration with University of
Delhi and Microsoft which was organized in the College itself.
The teachers of our college enthusiastically attended various workshops on

computer software organized by the University of Delhi.
Students and teachers have participated in the University of Delhi-sponsored

Antardhvani and Gyanodaya Programs. This has helped the students to co-relate
their academic concerns with the larger society and its demands in an inter-
disciplinary manner. The College also organizes educational tours as a
supplementary to classroom teaching.

As incentive and support the College helps meritorious students by providing
text books and other curriculum related material.
1.1.5 Interaction with industry, research bodies, the affiliating University and
other educational institutions for effective operationalization of the
curriculum

government recognized private schools and help in the curriculum development.
Teachers who are involved in research draw support from various research
bodies like Indian Institute of Advanced Studies (IIAS), Indian Council for
Cultural Relations (ICCR), Indian Council of Historical Research (ICHR) and
also UGC.
The Placement Cell of the College interacts with the industry and showcases the
academic achievements of the students. Over the years there has been an
impressive recruitment of the students in various industrial sectors. The
interaction with the industry helps teachers and students to pedagogically align
their curriculum with the present day needs of the industry.
The students have been regularly participating in summer training programs

being organized by the various industrial houses. A student of the College has
participated in a two-week course of the 47th annual Rudolf Dreikurs summer
schools and institute in Canterbury, United Kingdom.
As an innovative endeavor the College prepares its students for a real life
interaction with the industry and research and academic bodies by selecting (a
group of 35) students for in-house training in library, accounts and
administration.
1.1.6 Role of faculty in curriculum planning and implementation

The faculty of Ramanujan College is a balance between experience and youth.
Many senior faculty members have been actively associated in curriculum
development at the University level. The B.A. Program Application Course on
Film studies was introduced in our College as a first in the University in 2006.

1.1.7 Development of curriculum for courses offered by the Institution.
The Ramanujan College offers Certificate Courses on 'Human Rights' and

'Personality and English Enhancement Course'. The College also offers a
Certificate Course in French language.
The Course on Human Rights is being conducted by the Department of Political

Science of the College. The Course is in response to a growing demand among
students for informed awareness about human rights which is perceived as an
important issue today. For the creation of global citizens it is necessary for a
learning based on judicial systems and its laws on human rights, consumer laws,
human values of ethics and morality.
Many students who get enrolled in our College are first generation learners, or
have graduated from schools where the medium of instruction is Hindi. Such
students feel the need to enhance their English language skills to face the
challenges of contemporary multilingual world. The Certificate Course in
Personality and English Enhancement seeks to address these concerns of the
students. It focuses on the usage of English in professional and general contexts.

1.3 Curriculum Enrichment

1.3.1 Efforts by the Institution to supplement the University's curriculum to
ensure that the academic programs and Institution's goals and objectives
are integrated.
The endeavor at the Ramanujan College has been to encourage a wholesome
education that equips the student not only with knowledge and skills but also
enriches the personality through social awareness and a moral conscience.
The introduction of the concept of Integrated Mind Body Heart as a pedagogic

input by the University of Delhi in 2013 inspired the College to undertake an
innovative exercise in the form on a four day long inter-disciplinary Program
called Antargyan. The Program was organized and conceptualized by the Centre
for Ethics and Values, in collaboration with Gandhi Smriti and Darshan Samiti,
Baha'i House of Worship and Jamia Hamdard. The Program involved students in
a number of creative activities like writing, singing, dancing, recitation,
extempore, theatre, games and community service, all promoting the idea of

internationalism, humanism and the development of an ethically just society.
The College has encouraged each department to organize educational cum

recreational trips. The History Department has organized trips to various
monuments and historical sites and the National Museum for a greater awareness
and experiential learning. The Department of Mathematics, Statistics and
Computer Science went to Rishikesh in mid-March 2015. The Department of
English and Political Science went to Udaipur in the activity week.
The Department of Mathematics has been conducting special classes (with

hands-on-experience) for the students who are interested in learning the
document preparation system “Latex” which is highly recommended for reports,
Ph.D. thesis, publications, papers and books.
The College has a vibrant film appreciation club called First Cut.
The films shown by the society are historically important and socially relevant,
followed by discussions.
Visits to nearby industries, located in the area around Faridabad and Okhla are
undertaken by the students pursuing the paper "Entrepreneurship and Small
Business."
The students pursuing the paper 'Hindi Patrakarita' have visited many printing
press and newspaper offices as a part of training required for the Course. The
students studying the course on environment studies visited the Yamuna River
Bank and the Yamuna Diversity Park. The students of the Department of
Computer Science also visited this Park and developed software for easy access
to the Park by the visitors. In addition, they developed a software to easily design
the time-table of the College.
The students have developed an application for software for mobiles for the
hearing impaired students.
1.3.2 Efforts made by the Institution to enrich and organize the curriculum to
enhance the experiences of the students so as to cope with the needs
of the dynamic employment market
The College has been providing guidance by experts on resume writing,
interview skills, and communication skills through specially organized
workshops. J.P. Banduni (Retd. DGM, BHEL) was the Placement and Career
Development consultant for 2 years. The College has also engaged corporate HR
personnel for lectures to improve employability of our students.
There have also been short-term programs like face-to-face interactions, with
professionals, writers, information technology specialists, academicians and
entrepreneurs to enhance the experiences of the students.
1.3.3 The efforts made by the institution to integrate the cross cutting issues
such as Gender, Climate Change, Environmental Education, Human
Rights, ICT into the curriculum.
The College which began as a boys' college, opened itself to girls in the year

1994 as an effort towards gender equality. The College also offers 5%
concession on cut-off to girl students seeking admissions to encourage them.
The Centre for Ethics and Values, set up by UGC assistance in 2010, has been at
the core of organizing a number of activities, including seminars and lectures,
film shows and cultural activities, highlighting to the students the need for the
creation of a society that is conscious of human rights, ethics and moral values.
As an ICT initiative the College has provided computers (laptops) to the

students. The entire College campus is Wi-Fi enabled and the students are
encouraged to access the latest information on their laptops.
The College has a theatre group named Jazba that works on theatre presentations
about issues concerning environment, gender and human rights and other themes
of social concern. Their street plays have won acclaim in the University and are
in the cultural limelight of the city. Their play Bhookh (Hunger) won the Sahitya
Kala Parishad Award (2015) in the inter-college competition for street theatre.
The film appreciation club, First Cut has been making short films on gender and
human rights. Their 10 minutes film Khudiram that focused on gender rights
won a number of prizes at various competitions including first prize at
Antardhvani- the Annual Festival of the University of Delhi.
The activities of the Eco club are not only to learn about bio-diversity and
sustainable growth models but also to keep the campus clean and ecologically
viable.
Latest books and reading material on these issues and concerns are procured by
the College on a regular basis. Gender studies and Environment Studies are an
integral part of the pedagogical efforts of the Department of English, Hindi and
Political Science.
1.3.4 Value-added courses/enrichment Programs offered to ensure holistic

development of students.
The following value added courses are offered to students for a holistic
development:

different aspects of personality development. The National Service Scheme
members regularly organize blood donation camps, collect relief material for
disaster areas, and carry out cleanliness drives, launch campaign against tobacco
and ragging. They also visit old age home and undertake work in the slums
amongst the poor and the underprivileged.

1.3.5 Enumerate on the extent of use of the feedback from stakeholders in
enriching the curriculum.
The College has student and teacher feedback form. The alumni are also
encouraged to give feedback in a specially designed form. There are regular
meetings of the class representative and the teacher-in-charges of the
Departments for feedback on day-to-day basis. The student and teacher
feedback helps the College to identify the problem areas of the curriculum and
this is officially intimated to the Departments of the University. Members of the
teaching faculty also give their valuable inputs in University Departmental
meetings. Nevertheless, the feedback does have a great impact on the
methodology and approach of teaching curriculum at the classroom level.
1.3.6 Monitoring and evaluation of the quality of enrichment Programs.
All the centers and departments that run quality enrichment Programs like
special classes, lectures and courses submit reports detailing the quality of the
enrichment Program. The reports form the basis of evaluation. The College
reports are written on regular basis. There are also assessment reports that
evaluate the quality of the Programs. The Staff Council and the Departmental
meetings are held to monitor academic quality and suggestions from the
teaching faculty help in initiating required changes.

Many members of our teaching faculty are involved in the process of curriculum
development at the University level. The Principal of the College and a senior
teacher of the Commerce Department were invited by the University to be the
members of the Task Force constituted to design the framework of the Four Year
Undergraduate Program. Many members of our faculty are part of the Board of
Studies/Committee of Courses and Studies of University of Delhi, University
Department Committees for curricular development, planning and syllabi
design. They are also invited as resource persons for refresher courses run by the
University CPDHE. Many teachers are actively engaged in developing
curriculum for courses offered by the universities other than University of Delhi.
1.4.2 Feedback System
The Ramanujan College gathers feedback from teachers in department meetings

and other interactive meetings that the Principal convenes with the faculty
members.
The College has an Alumni Association as a source of valuable feedback. The

College website also allows parents, alumni and every other stake holder,
particularly from the industry to send feedback.
Feedback is gathered from the students on the curriculum, faculty, and

infrastructure through questionnaires, student-teacher interactions. There is also
a grievance box installed in the College. In addition, suggestions regarding the

on-going curriculum are sent from the Department of the College to the
University for a further revision/ modification.
1.4.3 Rationale for introducing new courses/Programs by the Institution during

the last four years.
The following new Courses were introduced by the College in the past four
years:
1. B. Tech in Computer Science

2. Honours in Economics
3. Honours in Mathematics
4. Honours in Psychology
5. Honours in Statistics
These Courses were introduced under the Four Year Undergraduate Program
(FYUP). After the discontinuation of the FYUP these Courses have been
converted into special three year courses except for the B. Tech Computer
Science Course for which the College has applied for AICTE approval. The
College plans to offer the other courses as regular courses in the three year
undergraduate mode from the admission year 2015-16.
The College offers the following skill development Programs:
Certificate Course on Human Rights.

Certificate Course on Personality and English Enhancement Course.
Hindi Language Computer Typing Training Program.
Robotics and Software Designing Program.
The rationale behind the introduction of these new courses is twofold. Firstly,
since the College is now a full-fledged morning College looking forward to a
new building and added infrastructure, its scope of expansion is greatly
enhanced and thus, introducing new courses is imperative for the health and
growth of the institution. Secondly, the College has chosen these Courses as it
seeks to become an important hub and resource center of inter-disciplinary study
of Humanities and Commerce courses along with the study of Mathematics. In
the year 2015, the College also applied to the University for the approval of the
following courses:
1. Honours in Bachelor of Business Studies

2. Honours in History
3. Honours in Journalism (English)
4. Honours in Philosophy

CRITERION II
TEACHING - LEARNING AND EVALUATION
2.1 Student Enrollment and Profile

2.1.1 Publicity and transparency in the admission process.
The Ramanujan College follows an admission process which is within the

guidelines set by the University of Delhi. There are no entrance tests for the
different courses offered by the College. The University offers centralized
registration for admissions. The College constitutes an Admission Committee
through its Staff Council that independently supervises admission process
involving the non-teaching staff. The eligibility criteria and guidelines for all the
courses are printed in the University Prospectus and put up at the University
website (http://www.du.ac.in). All the necessary information regarding the
documents required, cut-off percentages and dates of admissions are displayed
on the College's notice boards and website.
The entire admission process of the College is computerized. The College

Prospectus is available on the website (http://www.ramanujancollege.ac.in) for
the ready reference of the applicants. The College provides counseling and
guidance by the subject teachers available at the admission help-desk before the
date of admission and during the admission process. Publicity of the admission to
the college is done on a large scale by the University through newspapers, the
University Prospectus, Information Bulletin and through Open House Sessions
for prospective students in both the North and the South Campuses of the
University. These Open House Sessions are attended by the representatives of our
College. Admission-related information is duly sent to the University for
verification and the list of admitted students is being displayed on the website.
Cut-off lists of each subject is published on the College and the University
websites, newspapers, as well as posted on the College's notice boards during
admission as per the schedule of the University of Delhi.
The registration of candidates for admission under the minority category and any
other special category, allowed by rules of University of Delhi, e.g. sports,
extracurricular activities, differently-abled, is done separately. To ensure
transparency, the member teachers of the Cultural Committee of the College set
the guidelines for selection under various categories, e.g. dance, music, drama
and oratory skills. The College invites experts from other Colleges or
Departments of the University of Delhi to judge the students as per the guidelines
of the University of Delhi. The list of selected candidates is displayed on the
College's notice boards and its website. Similarly, the members of the Sports
Committee of the College shortlists candidates according to the achievement
certificates provided and call those candidates for selection. The external expert
sent by the University of Delhi for each sport, oversees the entire process to
ensure fairness and transparency.
2.1.2 Criteria adopted and process of admission.
Admission is done strictly on the basis of merit. The University sets up a

criterion of admission for a particular academic year. These criteria change from

year to year. Broadly, the University recognizes the elective and the vocational
subjects that are offered by various boards across the country. In the language
subjects; elective, core and functional are generally accepted by the University.
The average percentage of the best of four subjects of the final school exam,
including one language, is considered for admissions. The cut-off percentage is
decided by the College and announced through the College's and the
University's websites, newspapers and notice boards.
Any other special requirements are also displayed on the notice board and
website. If seats remain vacant, the cut-off percentage is lowered in subsequent
round of admissions. The University allows as many as seven rounds of
admission process to exhaust all available seats. If seats still remain vacant, then
the College advertises seeking fresh admission applications.
The process of admission in our College is specifically described in details in the

section on Best Practices. The parents or guardians, accompanying the students,
acknowledge and appreciate this. We believe that the manner in which we
organize our Admission process is extremely systematic, efficient and student-
friendly. We consider it as one of our Best Practices.
2.1.3 Minimum and maximum percentage of marks for admission at entry level
for each of the programs offered by the College and a comparison with
neighboring Colleges of the affiliating University.
A comparative cut-offs statement with two neighboring colleges.
TABLE 2.1

2.1.4 Reviewing the admission process and student profiles annually.
The Admission Committee reviews the admission process and the students'
profiles (determined mainly through cut-off percentages) and reports to the Staff
Council. The Admission Committee also looks into the grievances, and is
responsible for their mitigation. The Admission Committee ensures fair and
smooth admission for all applicants, including categories like differently-abled,
staff quota, extracurricular activities (ECA), sports and foreign nationals. It is
for the Admission Committee to correctly interpret and implement the
guidelines of the admission policy of the University of Delhi.
2.1.5 Strategies adopted by the institution to demonstrate/reflect the National
commitment to diversity and inclusion.
The location of the Ramanujan College is at the intersection of high profile upper-
middle class colonies of South Delhi and the upcoming suburban rural and urban
colonies located in the South and South East part of the city bordering the state of
Haryana. This provides the College with a catchment area that is economically
and socially diverse with a substantial population of minorities.
The College has as a policy of giving benefit of percentage marks at the point of
admission to women students. Since 1994, when the College became a co-
educational college, the College aligned itself with the national goal of educating
and empowering women in our society. With a very strict and vigilant anti-sexual
harassment and anti-ragging committee, the College reaches out to its women
students, especially the ones from economically weaker sections with moral
support. The change of the College timing from late evening/afternoon to
morning has also helped the woman students, specially the one who commute
from far distances.

The OBC, SC, ST students are given preference as per the University of Delhi
guidelines and directives. Extra effort is put so as to fill up the seats of these
categories. Foreign nationals and students from Jammu and Kashmir and also
armed forces are given preference.
For the past five years we have seen a substantial number of students from the
states of the North East. A teacher has been given the responsibility to address any
problems faced by the students from the North Eastern states of the country. The
College plans to provide an exclusive hostel to the students from the North East as
and when it is able to construct its own building.
The Cultural Committee, the NSS and the Student's Union is especially cautious
and ensures that no discrimination takes place in selection of students for various
cultural and other extracurricular activities on the basis of gender, caste, region,
race and religion.
The College has provided infrastructural facilities for the differently-abled

students by constructing ramps, specially designed toilets. Reading material in
the Braille is available in the Library. Regular remedial classes for academically
weak students are organized. Financial assistance in the form of fee concession is
given to the economically weaker sections.

in 2013. These subjects were discontinued when the FYUP was withdrawn in
2014. The College plans to reintroduce these courses from the 2015-16 academic
year. B.A. Program and B.Com courses were discontinued in 2013 with the
introduction of FYUP but were reinstated when FYUP was withdrawn.

2.2 Catering to Student Diversity
2.2.1 Adherence to government policies with respect to Differently-abled

students
The College has initiated many steps for the benefits of differently-abled students
as per the University of Delhi and the Government of India ordinances. All the
policies delineated by the Equal Opportunities Cell (EOC) of the University of
Delhi are implemented by the College.
The College campus is accessible and movement friendly for the differently-
abled with ramps, signage, and washrooms specially designed for the different

The College has a wheel chair that is available at all times.

2.2.2 Assessment of the students' needs in terms of knowledge and skills
before the commencement of the program.
The College has no provision for such an assessment of the student before the
commencement of a program. Nevertheless, during admissions, help desks are
provided and counseling is done to prospective admission seekers regarding the
salient features of a particular course, its academic demands, the nature of its
syllabus and its career opportunities. The teacher-in-charges of the Departments
along with other members of the Departments help the students to make an
informed choice before taking admission.
2.2.3 Strategies adopted by the Institution to bridge the knowledge gap of the
enrolled students.
The College has been regularly holding Remedial Classes for the academically
weak students. The College has also introduced the Personality and English
Enhancement Course along with the Certificate Course on Human Rights and
French language.
In keeping with the mission and objectives of the College the focus is on reaching
out towards the less privileged sections of the society and addressing the needs of
students from diverse social, economic and religious backgrounds. For the
achievement of this goal the College is committed towards encouraging women
to educate themselves, provide a friendly environment to the differently abled
students and students who come from other parts of the country. The College
consciously pursues a policy of non discrimination.

2.2.4 Sensitization of staff and students on issues such as gender, inclusion,
environment.
The College has a powerful Sexual Harassment Prevention Committee that is
empowered to decide on cases of sexual harassment and recommend necessary
punitive measures. This Committee also organizes gender sensitization lectures
and workshops. The Environment Club O-Zone, is very active in keeping the
College environment clean and eco friendly. Cleanliness campaigns, more so
with the introduction of the Prime Minister inspired Swachh Bharat Movement,
are regular feature of the College. Posters, banners and notices regarding the need
to keep the environment clean are regularly put up.
The College has a special cell, with a teacher-in-charge, to look after the special
needs of the students from the North East. Care is taken that no form of
discrimination is practiced. This also applies to scheduled caste and scheduled
tribe students. The academic interventions in forms of seminars, discussions and
lectures organized by the Centre for Ethics and Values also helps in maintaining a
level of consciousness and conscience regarding these issues. There are members
in the faculty who do research and write on Dalit Literature and Sociology and
actively participate in raising the conscious level of students regarding
discriminations in our society and its ways of prevention.
2.2.5 Identifying and responding to special educational/learning needs of
advanced learners.
The College is proud to acknowledge that there are a large number of bright and
academically proficient students in the College. In the classroom the teachers are
able to identify such students and assess their aptitude and encourage them
through special academic projects and other co-curricular activities to optimize
their potential. The Department of English has initiated a program of writing
research papers which are evaluated and awarded. Identified advanced learners
have been selected for innovation projects of the University of Delhi. One of our
students has been awarded half major scholarship by the International
Committee of Adlerian Summer Schools and Institutes (ICASSI) to attend the
two weeks Course of the 47th annual Rudolf Dreikurs Summer Schools and
Institute in Canterbury, United Kingdom. There is a constant effort to have a close
interaction between the faculty and academically proficient students so that these
students are benefited with added discussion and provided with latest reading
material.
2.2.6 Analysis of academic performance of the marginalised students.
The Institution collects information from teachers and analyses results and
identifies weaker students. The Institution initiates special classes, provides
books and other study material for such students. There is a Fee Concession and
Students' Aid Fund for the economically deprived students.
The teachers of the College Council advise economically weaker students as to

how they could address their economic or personal problems. There are very few
students who dropout of the College due to financial inability. Nevertheless, the
College authorities are always willing to solve such problems.

2.3 Teaching-Learning Process
2.3.1 Planning and organizing the teaching, learning and evaluation schedules.
The Academic Calendar of the University of Delhi provides details regarding the
teaching and examination/evaluation schedule for the academic year beginning
in July every year. The University sends this Calendar to all its constituent
colleges and the colleges are required to comply.
Towards the end of every academic year the Staff Council of Ramanujan College
decides on the College activities it plans to hold in the next academic session and
sets up different committees for its implementation.
The Time-Table Committee coordinates with the teacher-in-charges of each

Department and prepares the class time-table well in advance of the academic
session so that the teachers are aware of the classes from the first day of the
academic session. The class time-table and the individual time-tables are put up
on the College website. The time-tables are also put up in front of every
classroom for the convenience of the students. The Library Committee allocates
funds for purchase of new books and other requirements of the library.
2.3.2 Contribution of IQAC to improve the Teaching – Learning Process
The Internal Quality Assessment Cell (IQAC) reviews research and

specialization work done by the faculty and also the innovative work done by the
Departments and allocates workload accordingly.
The IQAC has suggested ways of implementing of curriculum at the classroom

level. It has initiated a student as well as a teacher feedback system. It has
recommended the setting up of the Robotics Lab and the Mathematics Lab. The
IQAC has deliberated on the issue of academic growth of the College and
recommended the introduction of a number of courses that would help in the
College realizing its vision of an integrated and inter-disciplinary academic
development.
The IQAC Committee has recommended eight proposed programmes under the
Deen Dayal Upadhyay Centres for Knowledge Acquisition and Upgradation of
Skilled Human Abilities and Livelihood (KAUSHAL) scheme for which the
College has sought approval from UGC.
The IQAC has also approved of the College's application for the Star Innovation
Projects of the University of Delhi.
2.3.3 Student-centric learning – support structures
The College strives to make the learning environment student-centric and student
friendly both in terms of infrastructure and human resource. There is
considerable emphasis on interactive class room teaching which is validated in
the departmental meetings. The students are given time and freedom to work on a
wide range of projects and assignments. The College is ICT enabled and all
classrooms are provided with projectors. The campus is Wi-Fi enabled. All
teachers have been provided with laptops. PowerPoint presentations,

demonstration through film clips are extensively used in pedagogic practices
helping the student to learn effectively. The Library has the latest books and book
demands from students are also accommodated. The Department Associations
organise festivals, showcasing academic talents through quizzes, essay writing,
debates and presentations. These Associations also bring out their own
newsletters.
2.3.4 Nurturing critical thinking, creativity and scientific temper among the
students.
Like in all good teaching learning process interactive methods are best suited for
enhancing creative and critical thinking. Other than discussions, talks, seminars
presentations and workshops, the College encourages tours and excursions to
museums, exhibitions, historical places and industries. These trips which are
often accompanied by lectures help the students to evolve a holistic learning
process. The College has participated in all the six Gyanodaya projects of the
University of Delhi and sent batches of students to different parts of the country.
The projects and reports submitted by the students are proof of the integrated
learning process involved in these tours.
Our College students have also been part of the three innovation projects
sanctioned by the University of Delhi to our College.
The enthusiastic involvement of students in various societies of the College also

helps in nurturing creative and rational thinking. Especially the Environment
Club O-Zone, the dramatic society Jazba and the film appreciation club First Cut.
The students are able to creatively express their learning in a socially conscious
manner through the activities of these societies.
2.3.5 Availability of technologies and facilities for faculty for effective

teaching
The teachers of the College have been provided with laptops for use in the Wi-Fi
enabled campus and for presentations in classroom through the available ICT
technology. The computerised Library has well informed staffs that help and
cooperate with teachers and help them in their academic endeavors.
2.3.6 The students and faculty exposed to advanced level of knowledge and
skills.
The College encourages teachers to regularly attend lectures, seminars,
conferences, group discussions, and workshops related to their areas of interest
and expertise organised by various institutes or universities and updates their
advanced level of knowledge and skills. Students have been also attending
summer camps and workshops on specialised learning. One of our students has
been awarded half major scholarship by the International Committee of Adlerian
Summer Schools and Institutes (ICASSI) to attend the two weeks Course of the
47th annual Rudolf Dreikurs Summer Schools and Institute in Canterbury,
United Kingdom.

2.3.7 Benefit of academic, personal and psycho-social support and guidance
services
The College provides and encourages a student-friendly approach right from the
top administrator to the non-teaching staff of the College. This friendly ambiance
helps in creating an atmosphere of cordiality in which the students feels
supported and secure. The teacher-student engagement both in classroom and
outside it in form of the various activities help in benefitting the student with
academic, personal and psycho-social support and guidance.
With the introduction of the Psychology Department, the College now has
qualified and competent teachers who address the larger psycho-social issues
from the point of view of a professional expert.
2.3.8 Innovative teaching approaches/methods adopted by the faculty.
The College administration encourages innovative teaching practices and

methods as it has become imperative in the modern globalizing world to mold
students into well informed knowledgeable individuals who have a wide range of
interests and skills. The College has provided laptops to all the teachers so that
they can use the projector systems in the classroom for presentations and film
screenings. The College also supports field trips and visits to museums and
historical sites for an experiential teaching leaning process. The College has also
encouraged the Departments to engage members of other faculties in their
seminars and workshops.
The Centre for Ethics and Values (Please see in ‘Best Practices’ Section) has
helped in this integrated and inter-disciplinary approach to study by involving all
students and all the Departments in its innovative approach towards inculcating
value based learning.
The students studying issues of gender, race, caste and class as a part of their
academic curriculum are also members of the College dramatic society Jazba and
the film appreciation club First Cut where their classroom learning is expressed
in creative and innovative manner in the theatre and films presented by them.
2.3.9 Use of Library resources to augment the teaching- learning process
The Li brary is the center of academic environment of the College. With around
30,000 books in the Library, and a number of journals, newspapers and
magazines in subscription, the library is much used resource of the College. With
reading room facilities for about 200 students and teachers, the totally
computerized open access system library is also air conditioned. E-resources are
made available to teachers and students. The Library is kept open during the
exam preparatory holidays and the summer vacations. It is also connected to the
University of Delhi Library system.
The Library Committee functioning under the Staff Council allocates funds for
the various Departments and deliberates on the different developmental activities
that need to be taken up in the library. The faculty is allowed to procure books all
around the year. Stock taking of the library books is done annually and the expert
advice of the Department is sought when there is need to weed out books.

2.3.10 Challenges in completing the curriculum within the planned time frame
and calendar
The College seriously endeavors to complete curriculum within time frame and
calendar. Since the implementation of the Semester system in the University of
Delhi, and the introduction of bi-annual examinations the time frame to complete
course is considerably tightened and thus completing course is a challenge.
The challenge is taken up earnestly by the College by adopting the following

measures:
1. The Master Time-Table is prepared well before the commencement of the

academic session and the Departments prepare individual and class time-
tables which are uploaded on the College website before beginning of the
semester. Time-tables are sent to the faculty through e-mail. This ensures
that classes commence on the very first day of the semester.
2. Students from second semester on wards are informed that course work
begins on the first day irrespective of announcement of results of the
previous semester exam.
3. The Departments hold monthly assessment meetings to take cognizance
of course work completed and report it to the College administration. The
Departments also ensure that reading material and texts for various
courses are all available in the Library for the students. Study material
available on internet is downloaded and made available for the students.
4. In case there is any long leave taken by any teacher, the administration
promptly appoints guest faculty so that classes are not wasted for lack of
teacher.
5. The faculty takes extra classes to complete syllabus and the
administration arranges classrooms and other infrastructural support for
extra classes. Sometimes extra classes are taken on Sundays and other
holidays.
6. For the syllabus to be completed in time it is important that slow learners
are given special attention. Remedial classes are organized for them.
2.3.11 Monitoring and evaluating the quality of teaching-learning.
Under the guidance of the Internal Quality Assessment Cell (IQAC) of the
College the monitoring and evaluation of the teaching learning process is done in
the following manner:
1. There is a feedback system for both teachers and students. The feedback
is analyzed and necessary corrective measures are taken to improve the
teaching learning process.
2. Regular test, assignments, paper presentations and viva-voce by students
also help in monitoring the quality of teaching and learning.
3. The IQAC also monitors the internal assessment marks of students.
4. The Principal holds meetings with class representatives and gets
feedback regarding the teaching learning process.

2.4.1 Recruitment / Retention of Faculty
The recruitment of teachers is done according to the University of Delhi and the
UGC norms and guidelines. Vacancies are advertised and then due procedure of
the University is followed for the appointment process. Eligibility criteria of
teachers whether permanent, temporary, ad-hoc or guest is as per UGC norms and
guidelines. The University of Delhi has to formally approve of all appointments.
2.4.2 Coping with the growing demand/ scarcity of qualified senior faculty
The College endeavors to recruit the best talents with brilliant academic records
available amongst applicant teachers in the disciplines that it offers to its
students. It makes special efforts to recruit teachers with specializations in newly
emerging fields of study and also teachers who are willing to adopt modern
methods of interdisciplinary approaches to pedagogy. The College also invites
the best of the teachers and experts for special lectures for both its faculty and
students.
2.4.3 Enhancement of teacher quality.
As per the University of Delhi rules, all senior faculty have to do Orientation and
Refresher courses as a part of promotional requirement. The teachers apply for
leave to do these courses which is duly granted. Since a large number of teachers
are ad-hoc and temporary any long term program to enhance teacher quality is a
challenge.

2.4.4 Policies/systems to recharge teachers.

The College mainly follows the policies and systems of the University of Delhi to
recharge teachers but also takes its own initiatives. Research grants have
provided by the University of Delhi through the Innovation Projects. The UGC
also provides funds for travelling abroad to the scholars attending seminars and
conferences. Three faculty members have availed this facility in the past three
years. The College sanctions study leave to the teachers to pursue their research
work. The College Administration also gives lien to teachers who seek to engage
themselves in teaching outside the University of Delhi system. The policy is one
of total support and facilitation to faculty engaged in recharging themselves
academically.
2.4.5-6 Faculty awards and recognition and evaluation of teachers by the

students and external Peers.
At present there is no one in the Faculty who has received an award or recognition
for teaching. Nevertheless, there are many teachers in the College who are well
known for their scholarship and delivery of lecturers. These teachers are regularly
called by other institution both within the University and outside to deliver
lectures or act as resource persons in seminars and workshops.
The College has introduced a feedback system which has helped in assessment of
the strengths of each teacher. For promotions teachers are evaluated by the Peer
groups appointed by the University of Delhi for assessment, evaluation and
interview.
2.5 Evaluation Process and Reforms

2.5.1- 5 Information regarding Evaluation Process and Reforms
The evaluation process set by the University of Delhi is prominently featured in
the University website (du.ac.in) for each of its papers in different courses and
programs. The College also informs the students and the faculty through its
Handbook and website and through notices on notice boards.
Teachers inform the students about the evaluation system. Since most of the teachers
of the College are engaged in the examination and evaluation process of the
University of Delhi, all crucial information regarding the evaluation process is
intimated to the students. Every Department decides on a uniform mode of evaluation.

The two central features of the evaluation system of the University of Delhi are
the Internal Assessment (IA) and the centralized evaluation of answer scripts. The
Moderation Committee of the College scrutinizes and removes discrepancies if
any, in the Internal Assessment submitted by various Departments before they are
finally sent to the University.
The internal assessment marks of students are put up on the website of the
College. Since attendance is also a part of Internal Assessment, the attendance of
each student is also put up on the website. Internal Assessment marks are
submitted by individual teachers only after students have verified and signed.
This process makes the system error free and transparent.
2.5.6 Graduate attributes College focuses on.

The Ramanujan College strives to inculcate in its students the vision, mission and
objectives as the chief attributes of the graduates of the College. The graduates of
the College are not only academically accomplished but are also endowed with
skills and have a holistic all round development. They are conscientious human
beings with compassion and a commitment towards nation building. The
graduate attributes of the students are defined by the Principal in his address to the
students at the formal Orientation ceremony at the start of the academic year. The
Principal reiterates the values and attributes of the Ramanujan College graduate
during the formal farewell ceremonies also.
2.5.7 Mechanisms for redressal of grievances with reference to evaluation.

The College Grievance Committee is empowered to take decisions regarding
complaints about evaluation. The students are free to consult teachers to voice
their grievances regarding evaluation.
Before submission the final Internal Assessment marks are reviewed by the
Departments and then the College Moderation Committee. As said before the
marks are sent to the University only after each student has signed his/her Internal
Assessment records. If any inadvertent error happens, these are reported to the
University by the College.
2.6 Student performance and learning outcomes.

2.6.1 Learning outcomes focused on by the College.
The College website clearly states the vision, mission and objectives of the
institution. The staff and students are made aware of the aims of the College
through Orientation Programs, Seminars and Talks. The Institution makes all
efforts to provide the students opportunities to deliberate on various alternatives
and make informed choices, so that they become independent, strong yet
sensitive individuals with analytical abilities and innovative thinking. The focus
is also on motivating the students to equip them with skills so that they are able to
face the challenges of the modern world.
2.6.2 Monitoring and communicating the performance and progress of

students
All the Departments individually meet the Head of the Institution to analyze the

annual results every year. Our students have been performing well both in
academics as well as in co-curricular activities. Apart from having merit
positions in the University our students have also made a distinguished mark in
other extra-curricular activities such as sports and cultural activities like theatre ,
music, fine arts and dance.
2.6.3 Teaching, learning and assessment strategies of the Institution.

The College provides good infrastructural facilities to optimize the achievement
of the intended learning outcomes. To promote academic growth the departments
organize seminars, workshops, competitions. To facilitate a holistic development
of the students the College provides them opportunities to develop their talents
through the different discipline associations and cultural societies and in this way
the students are initiated into collaborative learning, teamwork and
organizational skills. The departments organize field trips, tours, and educational
excursions to give the students practical experience to establish a connection
between the classroom understanding and real life situations. The report of the
activities of each Department and Society is discussed and means of
improvement are initiated.
2.6.4 Measures/Initiatives taken up by the institution to enhance the social and

economic relevance.
The College has societies like National Service Scheme, the Eco Club O-Zone,
the Centre for Ethics and Values, and the Centre for Human Rights studies,
Accounting and Finance Lab, career oriented add-on certificate courses and a
Placement Cell which enhance the social and economic relevance of the courses
that the College offers. This is also done through creative writing competitions,
co-curricular activities such as talks and seminars organized by the Departments,
out-reach programs organized by societies to create social awareness, inter-
disciplinary, innovation research projects and internships.
2.6.5 Collection and analysis of data on student performance and learning

outcomes and using it for planning and overcoming barriers of learning
Individual potential of students and their weaknesses are identified at the
classroom level as well as through personal interactions by the faculty. The
analysis of results of tests, tutorials, assignments and projects also helps in
assessing the students' performance and progress. Analysis of these data helps in
identifying individual student weakness and also the problem areas of the
curriculum. Supplementary reading material and alternative teaching strategies
are applied to overcome these issues.
2.6.6-7 Monitoring and ensuring the achievement of learning outcomes and use
of assessment / evaluation outcomes for future planning.
The College IQAC monitors the data and the suggestions of the faculty to ensure
the achievement of learning outcomes. Retests and extra assignments are often
advised to improve learning outcomes of students. Remedial classes are also
held. The College is aware of the fact that a class is not homogenous in ability
level and therefore special attention needs to be given to some students to achieve
uniform levels of performance.

The final exam results of students are markers of the achievement of the student's
learning objective. A good exam result ensures better prospects both for advance
learning opportunities and in getting jobs. The exam result is also indicative of
the students over all academic level in terms of understanding and expression and
is a guideline to the future course that the student should take.

CRITERION III
RESEARCH, CONSULTANCY AND EXTENSION
3.1 Promotion of Research

The Ramanujan College is an undergraduate college of the University of Delhi.
The College promotes and encourages research for its faculty and tries to
inculcate research-oriented academics in its students. The various FDPs,
workshops and seminars are organized by the College to encourage faculty
research. Regular paper presentations and original project work by the students
are an integral part of the pedagogic process in the College.
3.1.1 Recognized research center/s of the affiliating University or any other

agency/organization.
The Ramanujan College offers undergraduate courses. The College does not
have recognized research center but its Departments encourages research-based
academic activities. The College has been sanctioned three research based
innovation projects funded by the University of Delhi in 2013-14. They are:
1. Learning Values through Community Service

2. Awareness of Consumer Rights in Contemporary India: A Comparison of
Backward Area and Metropolitan City
3. Comparison of the Methodology of Dabbawala in Mumbai with Courier
Company
3.1.2 Research Committee to monitor and address the issues of research.

The Research Committee of the Ramanujan College comprises of six members:
the Principal and five senior teachers from different departments. The IQAC of
the College and the Research Committee coordinate and take decisions regarding
improvement of research-related aspects in the College. The Committee has
recommended that some form of primary research should be encouraged in the
form of paper/project presentation at the undergraduate level which should be
supervised by the teachers. This will help to inculcate and encourage an
environment of academic research among the teaching staff and the students. The
Department of English has initiated research oriented activity by selecting five
English (Hons.) students to write papers on various subjects under the
supervision of the teachers during the academic year 2014-15.
The Department of Commerce initiated paper presentations, case studies, role

plays and other methods to encourage research.
3.1.3 Measures taken by the Institution to facilitate smooth progress and

implementation of research schemes/projects.
The institution facilitates smooth progress and implementation of all research-
based activities by providing infrastructural support in terms of comfortable
space and accessibility to the Library. Financial sanctions for research activities
are processed without any undue hindrance. The teachers are given the liberty to
order books related to their individual research activities. The students involved

in projects and research works are also allowed to recommend required books to
the Teacher-in-Charge of the Departments.
3.1.4 Efforts made by the Institution in developing scientific temper, research

culture and aptitude among students.
The Ramanujan College promotes Innovation Projects and tries to meet the
demands of the global market through these projects. There have been several
educational and professional interfaces with the industry, both in form of
interactions and visits, keeping in mind the scope of the subjects and the interest
of the students. Though field work and data collection are primary to these
projects, we have also realized that these projects help us in the expansion of
knowledge-base and availing opportunities beyond the boundaries of the
College. In this context, the experience of our students, as participants in the
Gyanodaya Project of the University of Delhi, needs to be acknowledged. Our
students have participated in all the six Gyanodaya Projects of the University.
These educational tours in special trains aim at broadening the horizons of
learning beyond the classrooms. In the last two excursions, project work was
carried out by the students on 'Mizo youth perspective towards society and
matrimony', 'Relevance of Article 371G' and on the 'Flora and Fauna of Northeast
India'.
The Ramanujan Center for Applied Mathematics and Research in collaboration

with the Departments of Statistics, Mathematics and Computer Science
effectively promotes the internalization of research aptitude among its students
with an aim of higher understanding, which gets reflected in their academic
responses as well. The Department of Computer Science has developed software
that is used for an effective planning of the College Master Time-Table. They
have also developed software that helps physically challenged students. The
Centre for Robotics and Artificial Intelligence has been active in designing
software for robotic science.
SOFTWARE DESIGNED FOR YAMUNA BIODIVERSITY PARK.

This software applies Computer Science knowledge to Environmental
Science. This software will enable the visitors (students, research scholars,
scientists, general public) of the Park to attain all the environmental education
related to it. It will also provide a single platform to the users to get the
information, instead of referring too many resources.
SOFTWARE FOR MASTER TIME TABLE FOR RAMANUJAN COLLEGE
The software generates optimized time table for the college according to the
workload of classes and rooms available. The software efficiently manages the
allocation process to prevent the slot redundancy of a room, teacher and class.
The entire College is ICT-enabled with Wi-Fi facility. The students and the
teachers have been equipped with personal laptops, which have helped the
pedagogy at classroom level to touch higher level of research-based teachings.
With information and knowledge accessibility at one's finger tips, the classroom
interaction breaks conventional boundaries and helps the students in seeking and
expressing deeper research based understandings.

As per the rules of the University of Delhi, not more than ten percent of the total

faculty is allowed to be on leave for research study at the same time. The faculty
members who have completed their research, availing of duly granted study
leave, rejoins the College as an expert in the area of his research with cutting edge
knowledge that certainly helps in encouraging the students and colleagues with
refresh and rigorous ideas. This brings a new dynamism to the on-going
pedagogy in the College. The following teachers have availed of the facility of
study leave to pursue research:

3.1.10 Initiatives taken up by the Institution in creating awareness/advocating/
transfer of relative findings of research of the Institution and elsewhere to
students and community (lab to land).
The teachers transmit research analysis and research interests in the day to day
classroom pedagogic practices. They make the students aware of the ongoing
research level activities in a particular field and discipline. The classroom
interaction is enriched by such inputs and the students get first-hand information.
The fact, that many B.Com (Hons.) students have involved themselves in the
projects and assignments related to global finance is because of the research

interests that many teachers of the Department of Commerce have in the area of
Finance. Similarly, due to the research interests of the teachers in film studies and
media, many humanities students have engaged in project work related to
cinema.
3.2 Resource Mobilization for Research

3.2.1-2 Percentage of the total budget earmarked for research.
Since the Ramanujan College works under the aegis of the University of Delhi, it
does not have any such provision of budget being earmarked and therefore relies
on the University and the UGC funding for research based activities. In the
General Development Assistance Scheme, during the XIIth Plan Period, 11.4%
of total grant sanctioned by the UGC is for Educational Innovation purposes.
Another 9% is sanctioned for Field Work and Study Tours. The College has also
received financial grants from the University of Delhi for research-based
Innovation Projects that were sanctioned to it. We also seek and receive
sponsorships from banks and other institutions for our research-based activities.
3.2.3 Financial provisions made available to support research projects by

students.
Innovative projects involves students' research are funded by the University of
Delhi. Some student research projects are funded directly by the College via
UGC funds (The details are given in 3.2.1)
In the year 2012, the University of Delhi started a scheme to support inter-
disciplinary Innovation Projects for the students. Three projects of the College
got a total grant of Rs.10 lakhs. This grant had a provision not only for equipment
purchase, travel, printing expenses, but also for a stipend of Rs. 1,000 per month
to each student working on the projects.
Mr. Rohan Rawat, a first year student of Psychology (Hons.), was awarded the
half major scholarship from the International Committee for Adlerian Summer
School and Institutes, University of Kent, Canterbury, UK. The College
supported Rohan by funding him the other half of the scholarship money.
The Gyanodaya Program, started by University of Delhi, was another effort

where students were provided with funds for field research.
3.2. Inter-disciplinary research in the Institution.

The College, on a regular basis, engages the Departments in inter-disciplinary
dialogues. The motive is not only to bring the Departments together but also to
focus on providing a comfortable academic environment to the students with
humble academic background. This section of students learn through listening to
debates, discussions and various other interactive sessions claiming themselves
to be the prospective research force.
The interactive sessions and other inter-disciplinary research undertakings are as
follows:
Ÿ Joint workshops between the Department of Commerce and the
Department of Computer Science.

Ÿ FDPs were organized by the Department of Commerce along with the
Department of Economics and Statistics.
Ÿ The Department of Mathematics and the Department of Commerce
jointly organized workshop.
Ÿ The Department of Mathematics organized a festival where all the
students and teachers were invited to participate in interesting
mathematics-related activities.
The teacher representatives from various Departments have participated in the

Gyanodaya Project of the University of Delhi. The ensuing inter-disciplinary
nature of the experience and the analysis has been valuable.
As an inter-disciplinary initiative the Department of English invited faculty from

the Department of History to make a presentation at the UGC-sponsored
National seminar on 'Contemporary Narratives of Subversions' 20-21 March
2015.
3.2.5 The Institution ensures optimal use of various equipment and research
facilities available to its staff and students.
The Ramanujan College ensures that the teachers as well as the students have an
easy access to the equipments needed as teaching aids. The classrooms are well
equipped with the latest audio-video technologies and Wi-Fi.
Ÿ The library and the computer lab are in the same building (first and
ground floor respectively) for easy and quick access, and references,
thereby saving time.
Ÿ The students have access to e-journals like Jstor, EPW and Sage
publications.
Ÿ OPAC helps the students and teachers to quickly go through the list of
books available, thus, saving time.
Ÿ Time-tables are designed for the optimal use of classrooms and also
adjusted according to the specific needs of the Departments, leaving time
for the teachers to pursue research work.
3.2.6 Special grants or finances from the industry or other beneficiary agency
for developing research facility.
The College receives all its grants from the UGC and the University of Delhi. It
has so far not received any financial grants from the industry for its projects.

3.2.7 Support provided to the faculty in securing research funds from various
funding agencies, industry and other organizations.

3.3 Research Facilities

3.3.1 Research facilities available to the students and research scholars within
the Campus.
The College ensures an easy access to technology and provides a comfortable

atmosphere for facilitating research and academic pursuits for its students and
teachers:
Ÿ We have Online Public Access Catalogue (OPAC). An assistant has been
appointed for helping the students and teachers for all library-related
work.
Ÿ As a constituent College of the University of Delhi, we have access to the
facilities of Electronic Resource Management Package for e-Journals
through DULS (Delhi University Library System).
Ÿ The College has two federated search engine facilities provided through
DULS. The first one is UGC INFONET federated search engine, JCCC,
and the second one is the search engine of DULS, KNIMBUS.
Ÿ The College library has a collection of about 30,000 books. The library
also subscribes to twenty eight journals across various disciplines. The
library provides internet access, printing, photocopying facility and
reference service.
Ÿ The library has air conditioned reading-rooms which can accommodate
150 students and faculty members at a time. It also has a comfortable
Reference Section lounge for teachers.

3.3.2 Institutional strategies for planning, upgrading and creating
infrastructural facilities to meet the needs of the researchers.
The Ramanujan College has been taking essential steps towards innovation and
upgradation of the infrastructural facilities keeping in mind the research interests
of the scholars and students.
Ÿ The College Library Committee keeps on upgrading the quality of the
book collection by adding books recommended by the faculty every year.
Ÿ Similarly, the focus is on enhancing library resources like better internet
connectivity and accessibility, more e-journals, a larger reading room
and an updated catalogue.
Ÿ The College is in the process of introducing new courses like Journalism
Honours, Philosophy Honours and History Honours with the intention of
providing an inter-disciplinary faculty that would act as an intellectual
resource bank for giving impetus to the research activity.
Ÿ The Centre for Robotics and Artificial Intelligence, the Mathematic Lab
and the Media Lab also act as infrastructural support for inter-
disciplinary research.
Ÿ The College has provided laptops to all its teachers and given round the
clock W-Fi connectivity with the intension of helping the faculty to
engage in academic pursuits without any hindrance. In future, when the
College will be able to construct its own building, the faculty will have
greater infrastructural support for research.
3.3.3 Special grants or finances from the industry or other beneficiary agency
for developing research facilities.
In 2009, ASSOCHM partly funded a seminar on 'Higher Education' in which

many well-researched academic papers on various aspects of Higher Education
were presented.
With the introduction of new courses in the near future, the College looks
forward to more inter-disciplinary projects and would be approaching the
industry and outside agencies for financial support.
3.3.4-5 The research facilities available to the students and research scholars in
the library
Generally, a representative of the publishers/suppliers contacts the teachers with

the new titles and gets their recommendation for purchase of a particular
publication. The Librarian after inquiring the titles in the holdings of the library
orders for the purchase of the recommended publication. Sometimes, faculties
are invited in book exhibitions. They select the books for purchase and the
Librarian orders the titles for the supply. The Magazines/Journals are selected
and deselected for subscription to the Library every year in the Library
Committee meeting.

The figures purchase of Books and Journals in the library in the last four years is
as follows:

3.5.2-5 Institutional promotion of promote consultancy.
The College is not directly involved in consultancy, but it encourages the faculty
to provide their expertise in consultancy to outside agencies. The College keeps
record of the individual teachers engaged in such activities. These records are
placed at the time of teachers' promotion and other career advancement
opportunities. As an undergraduate College pursuing mainly Commerce and
Humanities courses, the Ramanujan College is not engaged in any income-
generating consultancy.
3.6 Extension Activities and Institutional Social Responsibility (ISR)
3.6.1 Promote institution-neighborhood-community network and student

engagement, contributing to good citizenship, service orientation and
holistic development of the students.
In the year 2010, the Centre for Ethics and Values was set up precisely with the
intension of promoting good citizenship, service orientation and holistic
development of the students. The Centre organizes many inter-disciplinary
programs that help in the objective of promoting the idea of morality and ethics
in public life, which is essential for good citizenship. To promote and instill the
idea of social responsibility among the students, the College engages in a large
number of activities through its different societies, NSS and NCC. This infuses
solidarity among the students to work for each other in groups and also
understand the value of individual responsibilities. Ramanujan College has
developed and maintained cordial relationships with the nearby Colleges and
Universities. Lady Sri Ram College, Acharya Narendra Dev College and
Shaheed Bhagat Singh College, all constituent colleges of the University of
Delhi are neighboring colleges. The University of Jamia Millia Islamia is also in
the neighborhood. These institutions come together during the events like
cultural festival, workshops, seminars and other interactive sessions.
3.6.2 Institutional mechanism to track students' involvement in various social
movements/activities which promotes the role of citizenship.
The College has institutionalized ways to encourage students' involvement in

social movements/activities by constituting the following societies/centres/
committees promoting social and citizenship roles:
1. The Centre for Ethics and Values plays a crucial role in generating moral
awareness amongst students. The Centre has been working on two
innovation projects namely, 'Comparison of Methodology of the
Mumbai Dabbawalas and Courier Company' and 'Awareness of
Consumer Rights in Contemporary India – A Comparative Study of
Backward Areas and Metropolitan Cities.' These projects have helped
the students in understanding the necessity of humanity in the age of
globalization.
2. The National Service Scheme (NSS) handles the task of social mobility
and community service through organising activities like Blood
Donation Camp, Health Checkup Camp, Safai Abhiyaan, Tree
Plantation, Zero Hunger Campaign. The NSS also collected donation for

Kashmiri Relief Camp at Shastri Park. The Reports submitted by the
student members, after every event, helps the NSS analyze the
contemporary needs of the society. The enthusiastic volunteers of the
NSS help the College manage its major functions. They are very active
during the days of admissions, the Annual Day, the Sports Day and the
Foundation Day. They undertake the responsibilities given to them with
dedication and sincerity.
3. The students of the National Cadet Corps (NCC) receive training
regularly and participate in various intra-college and inter-college
activities. They have won many prizes in drill and guard-of-honor
competitions. Students of the College have also represented the NCC in
the march-past on the Republic Day.
4. The College has introduced the UGC-sponsored Course on Human
Rights with the sole objective of introducing undergraduate students,
pursuing studies in various disciplines, to the basic concepts and
practices of human rights and duties. The course familiarizes the students
with the fundamentals of national and international instruments
(treaties/conventions) and mechanisms for the promotion and protection
of human rights. It also introduces them to some of the national and
global debates on human rights.
5. The theatre group, Jazba, reflects awareness about social issues through
their productions and presentations. Their street play Bhookh (Hunger)
won the 'Sahitya Parishad Award' for the best street theatre in an inter-
college competition organized by it.
6. The music group Shivranjani's rendering of bhajans and sufi songs are
based on themes of peace, love and brotherhood among the humanity.
7. The film appreciation society, First Cut, also focuses on making films
with social messages. Their recent film, Khudiram, not only won acclaim
across the University and bagged many prizes, was on the theme of eve
teasing and women rights.
8. The Dance Nucleic Acid (DNA), our dance group, is very active and
choreographs many interesting group dance compositions that have won
many prizes in inter-college competitions.
9. The debating society, Tark, voices the socio-political and economic
concerns of the society and encourages the students to vociferously
argue regarding the various issues surrounding them.
10. The eco-club (O-ZONE) of the College is in the forefront of socially-
relevant activities with their constant focus on environment protection.
They have organized Plantation Drive and Cleanliness Drive in an effort
to inculcate among the students the importance of a clean environment
and the need for its protection. They organize competitions where
colleges across the university are invited. Recently, they organized a
poster making competition of the theme of Global Warming. An inter-
college competition on Environmental issues was organized, which
highlighted the following themes: wastage of resources – water,
electricity, food; pollution; health and hygiene; Yamuna cleaning
programme; innovative ways of waste disposal in Delhi; problem of food

adulteration; global warming and efficient waste management
techniques. The College, in coordination with the eco-club, is planning
to set up water harvesting plant and recycling of bio-waste plant in the
College. The project is in its planning stage and will soon be
implemented.
3.6.3 Stakeholder's perception on the overall performance and quality of the

institution.
The Ramanujan College, while functioning as Deshbandhu College (Evening),
had the objective of catering to the demands of already employed students
desiring higher education. It earned the reputation of a good institution. Today,
as Ramanujan College, the perception about the College by its stake holders and
others in the society has changed into a fast-growing aspiring institution.
Feedback from teachers, both present and retired, students, parents and the
alumni, suggests that the college is being rated high in the quality of its
deliverance of its objectives. There is an overall perception that the College will
soon emerge as a top rated college of the University of Delhi once it is able to
construct its own building and infrastructure. The fact that the College was
awarded prizes in the University of Delhi festival, Antardhvani, for the past two
years, has also helped in raising the perception of the College as a quality
institution.
3.6.4-5 Institutional plan and organization of its extension and outreach

programmes and the participation of students and faculty in extension
activities.
In the past five years, the College has constituted a number societies and centres.
Though the participation in extension activities is voluntary, there is great
enthusiasm among the students and faculty to make the activities of the societies
very successful. Often the initiative and the idea comes from the students
themselves and the faculty then takes the necessary steps to concretize the
programme. Most of the cultural societies are nurtured by the Staff Council and
the Cultural Committee. The sports-related activities and the NCC are the
responsibilities of the Department of Physical Education and Sport Sciences.
Individual teachers are the Conveners of the Societies.
The activities of the Societies range from organising festivals, competitions,

debates, movie screenings, interactive lectures and workshops with experts and
eminent speakers, to name a few.
3.6.6 Work undertaken by the College to ensure social justice and empower
students from under-privileged and vulnerable sections of society.
The College has undertaken various steps to ensure that it contributes to the
society in any possible manner. For instance, it provides financial assistance
under fee concession schemes. All the Departments in the College identify the
names of the students and recommend the same to the College authorities for fee
concession. After scrutinizing, the eligible students are provided with financial
assistance. Besides this, the College also provides remedial classes and has a
scheme of book lending.

Alumni scholarship is another area where the College gives awards to the
meritorious but needy students.
The students are also involved in exploring various aspects of the society. The
aim is to bring sensitization about the under-privileged groups in the society and
look for ways to rehabilitate them by providing the basic amenities like clothes,
food and books.
3.6.7-9 Objectives and expected outcomes of the extension activities

organized by the institution.
The objectives of the extension activities are to provide field experience and
sensitise the students to the harsh realities of society, thereby, inculcating a sense
of social responsibility and justice. A large number of students (about 50%) of the
college belong to the economically weaker sections of the society and, thus,
through its extension activities, the College reaches out to the under-privileged
section and try to make a difference in their lives.
Ramanujan College organised a ten-day International Workshop on Skill

Development – Journalism Education Seminar - for Afghan University
professors in collaboration with the University of Nebraska and financed by the
UNO at the University of Delhi from 29th December to 8th January 2014.
The NSS unit of the College along with the Centre for Ethics and Values handles
the task of social mobility and community service through its various activities.
They have organized community cleanliness programs as well as n unique
programme of 'Joy of Giving Week' – Daan Utsav in 2014. The nobility in the act
of giving was celebrated in this event though Gyan Daan, in which students
taught children from the neighboring areas; Pushtika Daan, in which students
donated books and note books to needy children; and Mudra Daan, where money
and articles were collected for distribution among poor. This was an exceptional
way to instill a conscientious heart and mind for the students and faculty who
participated in the programme.
3.6.10 Give details of the awards received by the Institution for extension
activities and/contributions to the social/community development
during the last four years.
The students involved in the dramatics society, Jazba, and the film appreciation
society, First Cut, contribute to social and community development by raising
issues that are socially relevant in a creative and innovative manner. They have
won acclaim and prizes for their productions. Jazba's play, on the issue of hunger,
and First Cut's film, dealing with women empowerment, have been impactful.
Both the productions have been extensively presented at various forums and
large audiences have appreciated their efforts. The College encourages such
activities that sensitize students to issues of social uplift and empowerment.

Ÿ Three Staffrooms, Girls Common Room, Gymnasium and Sports Room.
Till 2008, the College had been functioning as an evening college. Most of the
facilities/infrastructure was shared with the Deshbandhu College, except the
administrative block which was separate for our College from the beginning.
The library, the classrooms and the laboratories were common for both the
Colleges. After 2008, the College's Governing Body thought of creating a
separate entity and named it Ramanujan College. It started developing its
infrastructural facilities for promoting the academic growth of its students.
The College started by separating its library from that of the Deshbandhu
College's. We created our own library with state-of-the-art air conditioned
reading room, and adding more books and journals in the library. We have also
renovated the space which was allocated to us for the library.

We further renovated the hall-cum-auditorium, which was abandoned by the
Deshbandhu College. Later, the Governing Body approved the installing of air
conditioners in the Auditorium. Two porta-cabins (in the Old Block) were also
constructed for our exclusive use as classrooms in the year 2010. We also got two
rooms which are now used for the Centre for Robotics and Artificial Intelligence
and NAAC room. After 2010, we developed state-of-the-art Computer labs, in
addition to a room for the Centre for Ethics and Values.
In 2010, we were further allocated seven acres of land and we started the process
of getting approvals from the relevant agencies. We also renovated our
Administrative Block, three staff rooms, and created a separate reading room for
teachers in the Library. We have added six washrooms both for boys and girls and
also renovated all the old ones. Adequate arrangements for water availability
have been made and special attention has been paid to drinking water facilities.
Arrangements for rain water harvesting have also been made along with the
setting up of a Compost Plant. There is a canteen for our students and beautiful
lawns and gardens in front of the porta-cabin block. We have also created a 400 m
athletic track in our playground.
We have tied up with a sports academy to train our students in various sports
activities. A Ranji Trophy player has been recruited as the Coach of our cricket
team. We have developed practice pitch for cricket.
As regards to our future expansion, the master plan of our institution includes
Academic Block, student facility centre with provision for a canteen, bank,
indoor games, gym and common room for both boys and girls. There is in the
design, plans for a large Library, Lecture Theatre Block and a Hostel Block for
both boys and girls. We have been promised financial assistance by the
University of Delhi. Funding from the UGC and as well as the MHRD is awaited.
The project work for construction of the new building has already been assigned
to RITES. The tender documents for the Academic Block are ready and we are
hopeful that construction will start in the next academic year. The drawing of the
plans are given in Table 4.3.

College completely acknowledges the fact that co-curricular activities do not
follow academics but both complement each other. Academics, in conjunction

personality. A Cultural Committee of Staff Council takes care of all the cultural
activities. The different societies under this committee are allotted 2 to 3 teachers
to mentor each society. Experts are invited from outside the College for
conducting workshops and augment knowledge. The students are encouraged
and given incentive marks on basis of extracurricular activities and sports in the
internal assessment. They are also encouraged to be a part of these societies. The
College takes care of the requirements of each society by allocating funds for
their efficient functioning. Participation and excellence certificates are given to
the students. Attractive cash and other prizes are also given to the winners of the
various competitions.

CRITERION VI
GOVERNANCE, LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT
6.1 Institutional Vision and Leadership
6.1.1 The vision and mission of the Institution, its traditions and value
orientations in addressing the needs of the society.
The mission of the Ramanujan College is to contribute towards nation building
by providing every opportunity to its students and teachers. It is necessary for an
ethical and moral value-based self-development required to meet the challenges
of the modern world. The leadership and management of the College endeavours
to continuously equip the students with a mature mind and heart, capable of
critical thinking, innovation and experimentation, which will enable them to
become leaders in a transforming society. The Governing Body of the College is
extremely supportive of any infrastructural requirement and proposal for all
academic projects. In the year 2010, the College set up the Centre for Ethics and
Values, which became the core Centre for an integrated approach towards a value
based education system that the College intended to pursue.
6.1.2 The role of the top management, the Principal and faculty in design and
implementation of its quality policy and plans.
As a constituent College of the University of Delhi, the College's Governing
Body members along with the Principal (Member Secretary of the Governing
Body) and the teacher representatives, charts down the following ways to
implement the University's quality plans in conjunction with the College's own
plans for development and expansion:
Ÿ The Principal, as the Chairperson of the Staff Council, leads the various
Staff Council-constituted committees which look after the qualitative and
quantitative aspects of the College. The Principal ensures that the
members of the Staff Council are collectively involved and responsible for
the College.
Ÿ IQAC: An Internal Quality Assurance Cell has been put in place in 2013.
The central task of the IQAC was to structure out the parameters for
evaluation of the academic standards of the College. In the first meeting,
the members decided to deploy a feedback system for both the students
and staff of the College. Subsequently, the IQAC has been monitoring
academic performances and making policy decisions regarding the
formation of more efficient time-tables and effective evaluation systems
for internal assessments. Decisions regarding the admission process,
academic coordination between different departments, conducting the
examinations and promotion of research and extension activities have also
been taken.
Ÿ The Principal and the Governing Body members have been persistent in
their efforts to enhance the quality of the College. The Principal and the
Governing Body members deliberate on the issue of the Placement Cell,
the College building, effective teaching methods, on-going and upcoming
research projects and activities, budgetary allocation and sanctioning of
finance, admissions, implementation of the University guideline.

6.1.3 Involvement of the leadership in ensuring, formulation of action plans
and interaction with the stakeholders to ensure culture of excellence.
Since the College has been renamed Ramanujan College from Deshbandhu
College (Evening) in 2010 and became a full-fledged morning College, the
vision-mission and the policy statement has undergone a major change. The
College has sought to expand itself and avail the new opportunities of a
globalizing world by offering more course and programs which have
contemporary value. At the same time, the College also gives a serious thought to
the socio-cultural dimension of the students and wishes to provide a holistic
educational platform to them. It attempts to provide the teaching faculty with the
best opportunities for self-development. Such a vision and mission could be
transformed into reality with two prompt approaches in the policies that the
College follows. Firstly, huge investments, both in terms of finance and planning,
are being done for the improvement of the infrastructure. Secondly, a focused
analysis of the curriculum is helping to create inter-disciplinary, creative and
innovative approaches to pedagogy. The College keeps in mind its chief
stakeholders: the students, the teaching faculty, the University, the parents, the
public and private sector outside the Institution, and society at large, in its
endeavor to create an educational institute of high academic standards and
excellence.
The Governing Body and the Principal who have provided the leadership for the
introduction of high value courses like Computer Science, Mathematics,
Economics, Psychology and Statistics in 2013 is in response to the informal
feedback taht the College received from the students, their parents and the
institutions in the private and public sectors.
6.1.4 The procedures that have been adopted from time to time by the
Institution to monitor and evaluate its policies and plans for effective
implementation and improvement.
The main procedure followed by the College is to report the implementation of all
the policy decisions by the Principal to the Governing Body. The Governing Body
is empowered to evaluate the performance of the College and take necessary
actions. As the head of the institution, the Principal is the Chairperson of the Staff
Council, which is statutory body under the ordinance of the University of Delhi
and is entrusted to oversee the functioning of the College and the implementation
of the Governing Body policies. The Staff Council makes a number of
committees and sub-committees that are the in-charge of various aspects of the
day-today running of the College. Some of the important committees of the Staff
Council are: the Admission Committee, the Exam Committee, the Time-Table
Committee, the Work Load Committee, the Discipline Committee, the Sports
Committee, the Cultural Committee, the Infrastructure Committee, the
Maintenance and Supervision Committee, the Placement Cell, the Purchase,
Stock Disposal and Stock Verification Committee, and the IT Infrastructure
Committee. The College has recently taken the ISO 9001:2008 for Office
Procedure.

6.1.5 Academic leadership provided to the faculty by the top management.
Since the Governing Body of the Ramanujan College is constituted by the

University of Delhi, the appointed Chairman of the Governing Body have been
an academic of merit and excellence. The members of the Governing Body are
also generally academicians from the University of Delhi. Many of them have
high reputation and are pillars of academic excellence. The College feels proud
and is inspired by the achievements of such members leading the Institution.

(Retired Addition Secretary, Government of India, imminent scholar,
administrator and expert in jurisprudence)
6.1.6 The development of Leadership at different levels in the institution.
The College administration believes that the proper functioning of an institution

can be attained through well-executed and administered hierarchy. The College,
at the levels of teaching, non-teaching (both permanent and contractual) and
students has instituted an efficient management system.
Ÿ The top Management has assigned powers and roles to various

committees of the College constituted in the Staff Council meetings. The
Governing Body, along with the Principal of the College, as its Member
Secretary, promotes democratic work environment helping the Staff
Council members in staging and strengthening their voices.
Ÿ The Governing Body sometimes also exercises exclusive rights on some
important issues like infrastructure and finance in the presence of the
Principal and two teacher representatives.
Ÿ At the level of teaching faculty, the Staff Council plays a very significant
role. It acts as a mediator and catalyst between the Management and the
students to execute various plans decided and assigned to the various Staff
Council committees.
Ÿ The Principal encourages the Staff Council members to take up the
convener-ship of various committees and also be the in-charge of various
functions.
Ÿ Non-teaching faculty are encouraged (library and administration) to take
up various administrative assignments and are encouraged to bring in new

approaches to the functioning of the Committees. They are also given
responsibilities to conduct various programs of the College.
Ÿ The Principal encourages the students, through the Students' Union of the
College which, in turn, supports the College, in its efficient functioning by
directly voicing the requirements of the students.
6.1.6 The delegation of authority and operational autonomy to the Departments

for decentralized governance.
The University of Delhi ordinances regarding the governance of the College
guide the democratic methods of transacting the day-to-day institutional affairs.
At the core of this decentralized process, is the statutory Staff Council in which
the entire teaching faculty, are the members. The constitution of various
committees and the delegation of authority and responsibilities to the members
and Conveners of the various committees ensure a decentralized method of
functioning. The committees are constituted by a democratic process of election.
The Staff Council has a Secretary who coordinates the activities of the
Committees. The Committees are responsible to plan out the annual program and
propose the budget accordingly. This method of College functioning, ensures a
holistic participation of all its members and also allows for multiple and varied
ideas which enrich the growth of the College.
6.1.7 Promoting the culture of participative management.
The College, as a constituent College of the University of Delhi, follows the

statues of the University and ensures the efficient implementation of the rules and
regulations of the University of Delhi. The statutes allow for a participative
management in the College affairs.
Ÿ There are two Teacher Representatives in the Governing Body on
rotational basis; one is from senior faculty and the other from junior
faculty.
Ÿ The Bursar's post is rotational and appointments are made by the
Governing Body on the recommendation of the Principal.
Ÿ The Vice Principal's post is an open post for the teachers of the College and
the appointment is done after a selection process by the Governing Body.
Ÿ The post of the Head of the Department is rotational.
Ÿ The Student representatives of the Students' Union, who are elected by the
students of the College, also help the College Principal in its management.
Ÿ Often, the Administrative Officer of the College, both from the Sections of
Academics and Accounts are made part of important decision making
committees.
6.2 Strategy Development and Deployment

6.2.1 The Institution's stated quality policy.
The formally stated quality policy is determined by the University of Delhi in its
calendar comprising of Ordinances and the governance of the College. The

primary responsibility of the University of Delhi constituted Governing Body of
the College is to ensure that the University stated policy of quality is maintained
in the governance of the College.
Many of the academic quality policies are framed by the Staff Council. The
academic quality policy of the College is implemented through various
committees of the Staff Council which are monitored by the Principal.
Since the inception of the IQAC, the quality policies are not only being framed by
the IQAC but also the implementations are monitored by the same body.
6.2.2 The perspective plan for development.

The College infrastructure and academic expansion has been planned and
approved. The essential sanctions have been obtained for the same. The
perspective is to provide the best of the infrastructure for an academic expansion
towards higher inter-disciplinary research.
With the new building and other infrastructure in place the College will provide
students, a learning environment that will be conducive to creative and innovative
approaches to academics. The College seeks to attract talent and the best of minds
from across the Country and a large hostel for both girls and boys is an important
part of our plans. The hostel will facilitate students seeking admission from remote
parts of the Country, particularly from the states of North East. The College will
also have a larger number of women students to benefit from this expansion.
This perspective also includes a greater interaction with the industries and other
beneficiary agencies. The College wishes to tie up with the industry and research
agencies to work on common projects.
We have already started new courses in science and humanities and have sought
approval for some more new courses with the view of greater interaction with the
industry and the demands of the changing socio-economic scenario. The College
seeks to develop itself into a hub of inter-disciplinary studies where research and
skill development will form the fundamental structure. We have applied to the
UGC for eight proposed programmes under the Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Centres
for Knowledge Acquisition and Upgradation of Skilled Human Abilities and
Livelihood (KAUSHAL) scheme.
The future vision also includes the development of skills of our non-teaching
staff, through training and skill enhancement programmes, for their personal and
professional growth.
6.2.3 The internal organizational structure and decision making processes.

Other than the Governing Body of the College, the decisions regarding the
governance of the College are taken at the level of the Staff Council and its
constituent committees. Decisions are also taken by the Committees that are
constituted by the Principal directly. The implementations of the decisions are
done in coordination with the Principal, the Staff Council Committees and the
non-teaching staff. The activities of the Committees are reported at the Staff
Council meetings and assessments are made.

6.2.4 The quality improvement strategies of the institution:
Ÿ Teaching and Learning: A well-formulated and planned Faculty
Development Program has been put in place as a strategy for quality
improvement. The teachers are encouraged to participate in Refresher
Courses and Orientation Courses that are being conducted by the
Academic Staff College of various universities in India. All classrooms
are IT-enabled for the improvement of teaching and learning. ICT training
programs are arranged for the faculty.
Ÿ Research and Development: As Research incentive, the teachers are
allowed to recommend and purchase books for the library which can also
be used for individual research.
Ÿ The College has collaboration with the Microsoft which provides the
researcher with research-oriented software.
Ÿ Human Resource: The augmentation of human resource and training is
done not only at the College level but also with decentralization of work,
allocation of responsibility to a large number of teachers, providing them
support at professional and career levels. There is also a conscious effort
on the part of the Management to spot specific talents amongst the
teaching faculty and encourage their further growth.
Ÿ Industry Interaction: Our College has started the Centre for
Entrepreneurship in 2008-09 and has tied-up with the National Institute
for Entrepreneurship and Small Business Development (NIESBUD) (An
Autonomous Organization of the Ministry of Micro Small & Medium
Enterprises), Noida since 2011. The Centre for Entrepreneurship in
association with the National Institute for Entrepreneurship and Small
Business Development (NIESBUD), National Small Industries
Corporation (NSIC) and ASSOCHAM has trained more than 500
students.
6.2.5 Adequate information to review the activities of the Institution.
The Principal is responsible for all the important information being reported to
the Governing Body as well as the University. These are in the form of minutes of
meetings, budgets, purchases made, creation of infrastructure, assessment of
result, appointments and profiles of the teachers, and any other information as
required by the University of Delhi. Most of the College activities are also
highlighted in the Annual Report of the College which is reviewed by the
Governing Body. Assessments are done through the self-assessment proforma of
the University of Delhi for the purpose of promotions. The teachers upgrade,
from time to time, their academic profile in the records of the College. The
teachers are encouraged to place their publications in the College Library.
6.2.6 Encouragement, support and involvement of the staff in improving the
effectiveness and efficiency of the institutional processes.
The administration of the College encourages and invites the participation from
the faculty. The Governing Body of the College encourages a democratic
environment which is reflected in the functioning of the Staff Council. The Staff

Council Committees take necessary actions required for the efficient functioning
of the College. The Committees are formed keeping in mind the academic, extra-
and co-curricular activities of the students. Though there are some issues that
come directly under the purview of the Governing Body, it is the Staff Council
and its Committees, under the Chairmanship of the Principal, which is authorized
to take decisions and plan action about most of the matters of the College.
6.2.7 The resolutions made by the Governing Body 2013-2014 and their
implementation.
The following are some of the important resolutions/decisions/approvals of the
Governing Body of the College taken during the year 2013-14 and implemented:
Ÿ Purchase and distribution of laptops to the teaching staff members for
teaching and research work.
Ÿ Approval of signing of Agreement with M/s RITES Ltd. for project
management consultancy services to construct a new College building.
Ÿ Approval of estimates and work of construction of porta-cabins under
OBC Expansion Grant.
Ÿ Constituted a committee for the appointment of the Vice Principal of the
College and approved the appointment after the selection.
Ÿ Approved of the proposed new courses to be introduced in the College.
All these have been implemented punctually and effectively.
6.2.8 The autonomy of an affiliated institution.

The Ramanujan College and its Governing Body has not deliberated on this
matter as the present focus is on the construction of the building and the
expansion of the College as a premier institution of inter-disciplinary academics
and research.
6.2.9 The mechanism to address grievances and complaints.

The Staff Council has constituted the Grievance Committee which looks after the
grievances/complaints of the members/stakeholders of the College. The College
is also bound by the Right to Information Act and has constituted an office of the
Public Information Officer to act promptly on any RTI applications. The names
and phone numbers of the assigned in-charges are displayed on the notice boards.
6.2.10 The court cases filed by and against the Institution.
There are nine matters pending before the Honorable High Court of Delhi
pertaining to the employees of our College. They are mainly regarding the
conversion of CPF to GPF and one case of pay parity.
6.2.11 The mechanism for analyzing student feedback.
Traditionally, to gather and analyze students' feedback, the College emphasizes

on Students' Union which acts as students' representative body. The College takes
into account all the suggestions/grievances/complaints put forth by the Students'

Union. These suggestions are then discussed in the Staff Council meetings.
The College has a feedback system by which the teachers distribute the feedback
forms among the students in the classrooms. The filled-up forms are then
submitted to the College and the matter of serious concern, if any, is put forth as
an agenda in the Staff Council meeting.
Informal feedback from the students regarding internal assessment, attendance,

tutorials and other issues are taken up by the individual teachers and the teacher
in-charge of the Departments.
The Principal and the Vice-Principal meet the class representatives of all classes
for direct feedback and accordingly decisions are taken.
6.3 Faculty Empowerment Strategies

6.3.1-2 Enhancing the professional development of teaching and non-teaching
staff.
The College believes in providing a hassle-free environment to both the teaching
and non-teaching staff by encouraging them to attend seminars and workshops,
and their respective orientation and refresher course programs organized by the
University as well as the College. It has recently acquired the ISO 9001:2008 for
Office Procedure, which makes the office an error-free and qualitatively-
enhanced work place, keeping in mind the interests of all the stakeholders. The
College has organized many Faculty Development Programmes (FDP),
involving experts and eminent academicians to empower teachers with the latest
developments in their fields. The non-teaching Staff, including the Librarian, are
sent to various trainings, seminars and workshops.
6.3.3 The performance appraisal system of the staff to evaluate and ensure that
information about multiple activities is appropriately captured and
considered for better appraisal.
The College follows the University manual for the performance appraisal of the
staff. The College boosts the staff to regularly enhance their experience
qualitatively and then to submit the progress report to the College and upgrade
their profiles. Their progress is then assessed for appraisal after they have filled
the appraisal form of Delhi University. The appraisal system follows the API
system of scoring points. This allows for the assessment of a wide range of
activities that the teachers pursue from academics, administrative
responsibilities. This appraisal system also factors in the individual teacher's
interests and abilities in fields other than academics.
6.3.4 The review of the performance appraisal reports by the Management.

Through letters, the College communicates the reports to the Governing Body.
The Management, after reviewing the reports, decides on promotions and other
sanctions (for example, leave and travel abroad) and communicates the same
through memorandums and letters. If any discrepancy or short comings are found
in the profile of the staff, a warning letter or memo is issued.

6.3.5 The welfare schemes available for the teaching and non-teaching staff.
LTC, health and medical benefits, leave benefits, maternity leave, study leave,
sabbatical leave, duty leave, reimbursement of seminars fees are some of the
welfare schemes available to the teachers. The teachers are also allowed to
withdraw or take loan from the Provident Fund Account as per the University
rules and norms. Most of the teachers and non-teaching staff of the College have
availed some or all of these welfare schemes. Proper records of the relevant
information and their updation ensure smooth and efficient implementation of
these schemes.
6.3.6 The measures taken by the Institution for attracting and retaining eminent
faculty.
There is no provision to retain eminent faculty, but the College has been regularly
inviting scholars and academicians of repute for lecture and workshops.
6.4 Financial Management and Resource Mobilization
6.4.1-2 The institutional mechanism to monitor effective and efficient use of
available financial resources and auditing of accounts.
The internal audit is done by the University of Delhi and the external audit by
CAG. The audit has been completed till 2013-14. Most of the money received for
various activities of the College is spent by the Committees constituted by the
Staff Council or directly by the Principal. There is a collective responsibility in
budgeting and incurring budgeted expenditure. For expenditure related to the
infrastructure (like building and other major projects) the Governing Body takes
decisions in meetings where the teacher representatives also take part. The
College has constituted the Development Fund and Infrastructure Committee,
Purchase, Stock Verification and Stock Disposal Committee, Maintenance and
Supervision of the Building Committee through which decisions regarding major
expenditures are taken. The Principal, as the Chairperson of these committees
can call for urgent meetings for the matters of immediate concern. Finances are
duly reported to and approved by the Governing Body. The Bursar and Accounts
Department deal with financial matters according to the guidelines laid down by
the UGC, University of Delhi and Central Services rules.
6.4.3 The major sources of institutional receipts/funding.
The College is 100% financed by the University of Delhi and the UGC. Budgets
are prepared and approved by the Governing Body and sent to the funding
agency. Funds are received from time to time and are spent on the approved
specified heads. The accounts of the College are audited and the audited
statements are presented to the Governing Body by the Principal.

The College has sought additional financial grants through the XI plan and XII
plan sanctions. The financing of many of the projects, both academic and
extracurricular, like the Innovation Projects and the Gyanodaya project, are
financed by the University of Delhi. We have recently approached the UGC for
obtaining additional funds for sports activities. We have also approached some
private agencies, like publishers and banks, for financial support for programs,
like seminars and workshops.

The College is conscious of the environmental and ecological challenges that a
modern and fast growing city like Delhi faces. As an institution, we try our best to
be environmentally conscious. From installation of LED lights, to the policy of
switching of lights, fans and air-conditioners when not in use, the College makes
every effort to be eco-friendly. We are working towards rain water harvesting
plan and have consulted a leading architect's consortium to execute this project.
The College has filed a tender for the same and work will begin soon.
Environment audit of the existing building has not been done but the approved
new building plans are based on the concept of green building and the design
incorporates all the concepts concerning the protection and nurturing of the
environment and ecology.
The College does not produce hazardous waste, but does take special care of its e-
waste. The College, in collaboration, with Green e-waste Recyclers Pvt. Ltd., has
handling its e-waste in an environmentally sound manner. Approximately, 110
kgs of e-waste that was generated was handled, stored and sent to the authorized
collection center/registered dismantler, where it was safely disposed of and
recycled. The College also organized an 'e-waste recycling campaign' in
collaboration with GIZ Pvt. Ltd. and the Green e-waste recyclers Pvt. Ltd.
The College has supported the environmental initiative of the Hindustan Times
'Read, Recycle, Renew'. Our College has contributed to this project in order to
achieve the objective of minimizing wastage.
7.2 Innovations
Some of the innovative ideas that the College has introduced are as follows:
a. Construction of porta-cabins to augment classroom and activity room
space to accommodate students admitted in newly introduced courses in
the absence of funds to construct new permanent building.
b. The Centre for Ethics and Values.
c. A reformed and student friendly online admission process. The College
has a machine for generation of Identity Cards with barcodes and library
cards for students during Admissions.
d. IT-enabled library and computer Lab.
e. Student designed software for the College Master Time-Table.
7.2 Best practices of the College

Best Practice : One
1. Title of the Practice: The Construction of Porta-Cabins.

2. Goal: To provide within a limited time frame, additional space for
conducting classes and facilitating various activities, in absence of funds

for the construction of the proposed new building.
3. The Context: Though the land has been provided for the construction of
a new building for the College, (within the premises of the existing
campus) and all plans and permissions have been obtained, the actual
construction of the new building has not been possible due to non-
availability of the funds. Since, the College was sharing the building with
Deshbandhu College (Morning), it was not possible for two full-time
colleges to function simultaneously in the same building. The College
found an immediate cost-effective, though temporary, solution to this
pressing problem, by constructing 26 porta-cabins in the land allocated to
the College.
4. The Practice: 26 porta-cabins have been constructed. Built with
minimum cost and with fire resistant material, these cabins are durable
constructions, large and well ventilated. They have glazed tiles floors,
which are easy to clean and equipped with light but sturdy functional
furniture. The porta class rooms are IT-enabled. The surroundings of the
cabins have been landscaped beautifully with aesthetically pleasing
lawns, gardens and pathways. Adequate arrangements for washrooms,
and drinking water, and staff rooms have been made. The porta-cabin area
has been designed with the requirements of the differently-abled in mind.
5. Evidence of Success: The porta-cabins have met the challenge of
introducing new courses and expanding the academic horizons of the
college, providing the students with comfortable class rooms and space
for activities like workshops, debates, presentations, and rehearsals for
music, dance and theatre productions. We are proud of the fact that non-
availability of funds did not deter us to go ahead enthusiastically with the
expansion plans that involved introduction of new courses. During this
summer vacation, we plan to construct more porta-cabins so that our
dependence on shared space with Deshbandhu College is further
minimized. The College plans to continue to use these porta-cabins even
when the new building is in place and slowly phase them out only after
extracting its full usage.
6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required: Though well
ventilated and provided with false ceilings, the porta-cabins become
uncomfortably hot during the summer months. Fortunately, during the
summer months regular classes do not take place in the College as the
semester comes to an end by the third week of April and the next semester
beings only in the third week of July. Only examinations are conducted
for a few days during the summer months. Keeping in view that the
College is seeking the introduction of new courses in the next academic
year, plans are ready for the construction of 10 more porta-cabins.
Best Practice : Two
1. Title of the Practice: The Centre for Ethics and Values

2. Goal: Our endeavor is to infuse the spirit of collectivism, creativity and
humanitarian spirit in our students. The Centre believes that education

should foster values that are oriented towards unity and integrity of
people. Such values should help eliminate obscurantism, religious
fanaticism, violence and superstition. Apart from this reformative role,
ethics and value-education has a profound positive impact on the overall
environment of the College. Anchored in our rich cultural heritage,
humanistic national goals and universal perception of peace and
solidarity have become the guiding path of the college.
3. The Context: In the year 2010, the UGC-supported Centre for Ethics and
Values was initiated in the College. A one of its kind initiative, the Ethics
Centre, as it is popularly known, seeks to synthesize ethical and moral
value systems with academic pursuit, to ensure all-round growth and
development of the students irrespective of the socio-economic and
cultural backgrounds that they belong to.
4. The Practice: Since 2010, the Centre has organized a national seminar,
two international conferences, and a national level workshop on Ethics.
The first was a two-day seminar on 'Ethical dimensions of Governance' at
India International Centre in 2010. This was followed by a three-day
conference on 'Restoring Culture of Ethics and Values: The Holistic
Education Way' at the University of Delhi Conference Centre in 2012. In
2013, the Centre organised a students-teachers workshop on 'Power of
Ethics in Learning', in collaboration with Institute of Life Long
Learning (ILLL), University of Delhi in 2013. In 2014, a two-day
international conference on 'Corporate Transformation: The Ethical Way'
was held at YMCA, New Delhi. Each of these events added fresh impetus
to our efforts in making the subject of ethics and values popular.
Other than organizing these seminars which brought recognition and
acclaim to the College, the Ethics Centre also organized in 2013 an
unique event called 'Antargyaan' or 'Inner Knowledge', in collaboration
with the Baha'i House of Worship (Lotus Temple), Gandhi Smriti and
Darshan Samiti, Rajghat. The Antargyaan festival provided a window of
opportunity to more than 500 students and 50 teachers to learn more about
Indian art and culture, cuisine, language, music, economic, politics,
geography, history and science with a focus on the integrated and
synergetic culture of our country. The four-day celebrations were packed
with activities that included debate, drama-competition, workshops,
music, dance, theatre, yoga and meditation sessions.
In collaboration with the NSS unit of the College, the Ethics Centre
organized a 'Joy of giving week', Daan Utsav from 8-15 October 2014.
The main purpose of this celebration was to experience joy from the core
of heart by way of 'giving' on all the seven days of 'Daan Utsav'. Three
aspects of giving, that is Gyan Daan, in which students taught children
from the neighboring areas; Pushtika Daan, in which students donated
books and note books to needy children; and Mudra daan, where money
and articles were collected for distribution among poor was a unique way
to instill a conscientious heart and mind for the participants.
On 25 March 2015, Dr. Vinit Haksar (Fellow, Edinburgh University,

U.K.) spoke on 'Happiness and Well Being'. The first ever Ethics Fest,
'Virasat' began on 15 April 2015, with the key note address delivered by
the Chief Guest, Prof. H.S. Prasad (Head, Department of Philosophy,
University of Delhi). A special talk was delivered by Philippines-born
and Canada-based B. A. Janardan Swami on 'Ethics, Spirituality and
Personal identity'. This was followed by an interactive session exploring
fundamental questions such as, 'What makes me the person I am? Why
should we be ethical? What makes us unethical?' A special talk was also
given by Dr. Smita Jha (Associate Professor, IIT, Roorkee), on 'Role of
Ethics in meeting life-goals'. The post-lunch session included events like
short-film and documentary screenings and the presentation of a play on
ethical values made by the students of the Centre. The culminating event
was the Mock Parliament on Ethics. The students overwhelmingly
participated in the parliamentary debate to pass a legislation on Ethics.
The Centre has published three volumes of the International Journal of
Applied Ethics. The Centre has also published a book entitled Ethics in
Governance (2011).
5. Evidence of Success: During 2013-14, the researchers from
Transparency International India engaged in a study of ethical values and
peace study, collaborated with the Centre to study the impact of ethics on
the minds the students of our College. A study conducted in two parts on
our 700 students by Ms. Naghma Siddiqui, a research scholar of Jamia
Hamdard, revealed a marked positive impact that the Centre for Ethics
and Values made over the attitude and conduct of our students. The highly
positive findings of the report were published in the International
Journal of Applied Ethics. Both the parts of this report, Part-1 and Part-2
have been published in the successive issues of the Journal.
6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required: The Centre for
Ethics and Values is a unique initiative. It has greatly helped in integrating
different disciplines and bringing together socially and culturally diverse
sections of student community in a harmonious, integrated and creative
platform of self-expression. The Centre has been a timely intervention in
making everyone aware of an ethical and moral sensibility as an essential
requirement for nation building. The challenge is to keep the momentum
on and continuously engage the students in a introspective dialogue that
finds its expression in concrete social interventions.
Best Practice : Three
1. Title of the Practice: The Reformed Admission Process in Ramanujan

College
2. Goal: It is our endeavor to make the experience of the students who seeks
admission in our College be something that they would cherish and feel
proud of once they get admitted.
3. The Context: Getting an admission to any college of the University of
Delhi in a course of one's choice is a challenging task. There is a huge
demand, but the seats are limited. Every year witnesses higher cut-off

percentages. The students and their guardians go about the admission
process in the scorching summer heat of the capital with extreme anxiety,
tension and sometimes even harassment before they finally get a seat in
the University of Delhi. Keeping this in mind, our College has
introduced, in the last three years, a highly reformed and efficient
admission process with the single aim of making the admissions
completely hassle free and smooth. We believe that the process in which
we conduct our admissions is a Best Practice and we are proud to be able
to complete our admission process without any disruptions and
grievances.
4. The Practice: The following measures have been adopted by the College
for its admission process:
I. The College has an integrated admission process.

II. The Staff Council constituted Admission Committee decides on
all the parameters of admission, including fixing of cut-off
percentage according to the guidelines of the University of Delhi.
Where there is provision for the College to make its own rules, the
Admission Committee judiciously and collectively takes those
decisions. For example, the College provides 5% concessions to
women applicants. This is as per the College's policy to promote
education among women. The Admission Committee also sets up
a help-desk, prior to the first date of admission to counsel
admission-seekers about the salient features of the College and
the admission process. The College holds Open Days for parents
and students in which the teachers provide counseling and
guidance to any parent or student who is seeking admission in our
College.
III. The actual admission process begins with the applicant getting his
final year school mark sheet checked by the help-desk outside the
admission building. Only students who qualify in the cut-off
percentage are allowed to enter the building. Accompanying
parents and guardians are also allowed entry. This way we
minimize the number of people entering the building and thus
keep control of crowds.
IV. Next, the student's registration number of the University
admission form and the authenticity of the school documents are
verified. The OBC, SC, ST and PWD certificates are also
checked. Marks are once again scrutinized and cut-off percentage
verification is done. The original documents of the applicant are
also checked. There are two computer stations to do this job. Each
unit has a set of teachers and office staff to help the applicant and,
hence, the step is carried on efficiently and quickly.
V. Post verification the applicant enters an air conditioned central
hall and fills up an online application form with assistance of the
volunteers. The student also fills up undertakings and other
required documents. The filled up e-form is accessed by the

teacher in-charge of each department in the same room. A print
out of the filled in application form is brought to the teacher in-
charge for final signature. Once the application form is signed by
the teacher in-charge and then counter signed by the Admission
Committee Convener, the form is sent to the bank counter which
is placed within this central hall. There are two bank counters and
the applicant then pays the admission fees there and then. The
bank counter stays open till all the admissions done for the day
have been issued receipts against payment of fees. The faculty on
duty also stays back till all admissions for the day have been
completed.
VI. We believe that the student seeking admission should be self
reliant and we do not encourage parents/guardians filling up
forms. There are adequately provided waiting halls for the
parents/guardians accompanying the applicants. Arrangements
for drinking water and washrooms for all the visitors are
provided. There is a separate staff room and pantry for the faculty
and the staff on duty.
VII. Once the admission fee is paid, the applicant is issued a bar-
coded student Identity-Card and library cards. For this, a
machine SMART50 is used by the College. Because of the
machine, a common database for all the students is created and
is used for all the official purposes for the whole length of time
that the students stays in the College.
VIII.With the help of the multiple checks, we have been able to
minimize disputes and grievances and thus reduce the
admission process time which is no more than an hour and half.
The College keeps its admission window open till all seats in all
the courses are filled. Though majority admissions are done
within the first six days of admission (Second List), the process
sometimes lasts for more than 12 days (Fourth List) for some
courses.
IX. The College had counseling sessions both for the students and
the parents. The teachers take up the queries of the parents and
interact with them. The NSS volunteers provide services to the
admission seekers and make sure that they do not face any
problems and make the process hassle free. The College also
constitutes an Admission Committee, Grievance Redressed
Committee, and Anti-Ragging and Disciplinary Committee. All
disputes or problems are addressed immediately and decisions
are taken promptly.
X. The cooperative and helpful ambiance during admission process
helps the admission seekers who are otherwise eager and tense.
As a College we feel proud that we put in a collective effort
during the admission process.
XI. The admission process culminates with a formal orientation

ceremony that is addressed by the Principal. All the students
who are admitted are welcomed to the College collectively and
then separately by each Department.
5. Evidence of Success: For the past three years the College has had dispute
and grievance free admissions.

33. Teaching Methods adopted to improve student learning

Ÿ The teaching pedagogy focuses on developing the thinking ability of the
students.
Ÿ They are given assignments and projects to motivate self and group learning
and research.
Ÿ The well qualified and dedicated faculty of the Department dynamically
engages with the students using both classroom and virtual mediums to go
beyond the course content and employ the learned techniques practically to
build a strong foundation.
Ÿ The students are given complete exposure to the emerging technologies to be
able to adapt to the changing trends adherent to this field.
34. Participation in Institutional social responsibility (ISR) and Extension

activities
Ÿ Many students from the Department work with NGOs and visit slums and
orphanages routinely to teach young students.
Ÿ Some students are actively participating in the activities of the NSS wing of
the college.
Ÿ The department is determined to work on a project to unite people from
different fraternities through an online portal to address issues of social
relevance.
Ÿ Some students are also part of the innovation project: learning through
community service in which they are engaged in helping children from slums.
35. SWOC Analysis of Department and Future Plans

Strength
Ÿ The Department has a young dynamic faculty that actively engages with
students and has a keen interest in research.

Ÿ The students are a great strength to the Department. They offer great
potential and caliber to learn new things and explore arenas outside the
curriculum. As has been stated students are involved in several extra-
curricular activities like organization of fests, working on the E-
Magazine, trainings for other students, placement cell related activities
and many more.
Ÿ The administration and the staff are always supportive of the efforts of the
Department and readily provide all required resources.
Ÿ Rgular lectures by academic experts provide a source of learning and
inspiration to the Department.
Ÿ The faculty along with the counseling cell of the college continuously
interacts with the students to guide them on their personal and
professional issues.
Weakness
Ÿ The lab is shared with other departments which may raise a problem once
the college has all batches of B.Sc. (Hons) Computer Science is running.
Ÿ The department requires better infrastructure for managing and
developing the Center for Robotics and Artificial Intelligence.
Opportunities
Ÿ The college has already applied for initiating a B.Sc. (Hons) course in
Computer Science which will bring in more students from diverse profiles
Ÿ The Department plans to engage in innovation projects sponsored by
agencies like DST, University of Delhi.
Ÿ The department seeks collaboration with industry to improve the career
profile of the students in form of short term courses, trainings, internships
and projects.
Challenges
Ÿ The Department wishes to offer its students with campus placements in
reputed organizations in worthy profiles.
Ÿ The impetus of the department is not on rote learning but going beyond the
curriculum and out of the box thinking which needs to be inculcated in
students. The focus is more on practical knowledge.
Ÿ The department wishes to inculcate entrepreneurial skills in students and
not only give them subject knowledge but also make them better humans.
FUTURE PLANS
The department is dedicated to play a vital role in the overall development of the
students as well as making contribution to the society. Some of the ongoing
projects and proposed ventures in this regard are discussed below:
Ÿ A group of our students are actively engaged in teaching students in orphanage
and slums.
Ÿ A project on “Smart Traffic Management Using Sensor Networks” has
been planned. Some of its features are
Ÿ Sensors for traffic congestion detection and prediction.
Ÿ Vehicle identification based on sensors and ensuring that the vehicles

follow the traffic rules.
Ÿ Automatic detection of traffic rule violation.
Ÿ Algorithms for traffic light switching for better traffic management.
Ÿ Today online social network plays a major role in our daily life. To understand
it in a better way, one project entitled “Sentiment Analysis on Online Social
Network” is being planned.
Ÿ One project on restoration of historical documents is under way entitled
“Image processing for historical documents”.
Ÿ To promote interdisciplinary work for the benefit of the society, the
department has established a society named “The Innovator's Society”. The
goal of the society is to provide a platform to discuss the real world problems
and to find an optimal solution for that.
Ÿ The department is planning to develop a three level website for making the
education
Ÿ Google has counted the total number of books to be more than 200 million
approximately. It is not possible to get access most of the books in hard copy.
So we are planning to make a login based e-book resource for our students.
This will be our first level project for our website.
Ÿ In the second level we are planning to have an online learning management
system which will include online assignment and project submission, online
evaluation and doubt clarifications.
Ÿ In the last phase, we are planning to have an online certificate course for the
students who are not part of our college. In this phase we will have online
lectures and online exams.

The Department of History uses teaching methods like lectures, seminars,

discussions and detailed evaluation of written works. The lectures are
extensive, yet the emphasis is on explaining the concepts and processes as
lucidly as possible in order to imbibe the students with research interest. The
Department encourages the students to think critically and define categories
both heuristically and historically. The Department aims for the regular and
careful evaluation of students' written work as it is extremely important for
forming the crucial component of the learning process. The Department also
attempts to inter-relate or even synthesize various historiographical positions
rather than merely focusing on their contestations and mutual contradictions.

activities
The Department aims to sensitise the students through Heritage protection

programme and through the involvement in community welfare activities.
Strength
History has emerged as one of the most important subject of the College by
appropriating inter-disciplinary approache. The Department has the highest
number books in the library. The collection has considerably large amount of
books in Hindi medium with an aim of inculcating research aptitude among
the students.
Weakness
Shortage of permanent teaching staff
Opportunities
The Department is aware that there is a growing interest in the study of
History among students at the Higher Secondary Level across the country
and the Department believes that in the coming years this subject will have a
high demand.
Challenges
With the introduction of B.A. (Hons) History academic environment with
holistic and meaningful interactions will be established with the other
departments.

The Political Science Department has been attempting to bring in a strategy

that can go beyond the regular method of class room teaching, within the
parameters of the University, for a particular curriculum of a subject. The
syllabus and the teaching modules are more or less fixed in nature. The
Department, while keeping the above lakshman rekha in mind, sets the
following pedagogic methodologies and innovative teaching practices:-
1. Since we have both English and Hindi medium students, therefore, the
most important concern of the department is to deliver the lectures in
both the mediums. Mostly the books and articles are in English language
so all teacher make their individual notes to deliver lectures on various
topics in Hindi.
2. The Department has been equipping the library with the updated reading
list and latest published books to expose the students to the most recent
reading materials in the field.
3. The students are continuously motivated to make use of references from
books, journals, websites etc. while preparing their answers and
projects.
4. Our classrooms have latest projectors, enabling the use of technology in
preparation of lectures and students presenting their paper through
power point presentation.
5. The Department conducts remedial classes for weak/average students.
In fact, the department also provides economic assistance to needy
students.
6. The Contact Periods (CPs) are much valued in the sense that the students

come out with their personal doubts and queries, which otherwise
cannot be addressed in the class. Since it is a small group, the students
get an opportunity to express themselves and engage in interactive
discussions.
7. To inculcate a sense of competitiveness, under Plus Politics
(Departmental Society), the department organizes inter-class and inter
college Debate, Extempore, Quiz Competition, Poster Making, Slogan
writing, Cartoon Making competitions etc.
8. Extensive use of Newspaper reports and articles are made in the
classroom teaching so as to offer the students an understanding of the
concept, followed by discussion among the students' vis-à-vis case
studies in the contemporary period.
9. In order to expose the students to the expertise on various subjects, the
department organizes different lecturers by inviting domain experts.
Students are encouraged to ask question so that a healthy discussion take
place.
10. In addition to classroom teaching, study tours are arranged so that
students not only get an opportunity to visit and study different places
but also get an opportunity to build team spirit which is a vital part of a
study tour. Towards this endeavour, the department had already
organized two study tours in 2014: Gandhi Bhawan [the students of
IMBH from Political Science (H), Statistics (H) and Hindi (H) were
shown around the museum and a documentary on Gandhi, followed by
an interactive session. The students prepared a project and PPT on the
same as a part of their course curriculum] and Orissa (details mentioned
above).
11. Based on experience that when some challenges are thrown to a group of
students to prepare some task then it is observed that responses of the
students and their stimuli act more quickly and in a team spirit of
completing the task. This throwing up of challenge for getting work
done is practiced by the department. Compared to other methods, this
method has proved quite provocative to get the students out of their
shell, to act and react.
12. The address of Mr. Pranab Mukherjee, Hon'ble President of India, was
directly webcast over video conferencing on 19 January 2015 at Ghalib
Auditorium. Political Science (H) students from all the three years
attended the programme followed by discussion with the faculty
members.
33. Participation in international social responsibility (isr) and extension

activities.
The students and faculty members regularly participate in the institutional

and social responsibility and extension activities organized by the college
NSS unit.

34. SWOC analysis of the Department and future plans.
Strengths
Ÿ Cohesively knit department.
Ÿ Excellent teamwork amongst the Faculty.
Ÿ Strong inter-personal communication and mentorship of the students.
Ÿ All faculty members have been proactive in college activities, societies and
events besides their teaching commitments.
Weaknesses
Students prefer courses like commerce over Political Science for immediate
and better placements.
Opportunities
Ÿ Encourage junior teachers to expand their organizational, research and
teaching potentialities.
Ÿ Be more pro-active in counseling students on career goals and placements.
Challenges
The major challenge before the department is to understand the students and to
orient them towards the required curriculum at the same time to give them space.
Time has come, it is not the teacher but the students who evaluates the teacher, so
teacher has to come up with the expectation of the students to be more techno-
savvy than the students on the other hand the course content is so vast that it is a
big challenge to make it inter-disciplinary. A teacher expects his final product-
students, to be more comfortable in the market where he is going to launch his
career whatever the field may be. In the present arena teacher can force the
students into something rather to inculcate a sense of belongingness to very
domain the teacher wants him to enter in.
Future Plans:
Based on the present experience, and looking forward to expanding student-

teacher interphase along with student-outside interphase, the following future
plans are in hand which will be in addition to strengthening our pedagogy already
stated future plans:-
Ÿ The Department has planned to organize a National Conference Changing

Dynamics of Indian Politics: The Challenges of Good Governance.
Ÿ Publication of Departmental Newsletter, Political Xpress, through active

participation of the students, so that they get an opportunity to prepare and
publish their works relating to their subject. This is expected to enhance
their writing skill and use of references as a means of sourcing original
writing.
Ÿ To make Mock Parliament sessions more lively, students will be taken to

witness working Parliament Sessions.
Ÿ To organize Model United Nations sessions in collaboration with New

Delhi office of the UNO, where students role-play delegates to UN and
simulate UN Committees. At the end of the session, Best Delegate will be
adjudicated.
Ÿ In the present day governance, the role of NGOs has increased

substantially. Thus, there is a need to associate with various NGOs to bring
various benefits to the students beyond class room teaching. As NGOs
work in different fields of society (including economic and education), the
department proposes to explore, to avail sources of some NGOs so as to
make students aware about the social remedies.
Ÿ To create a placement consultancy and to make available suitable person

for future career guidance.
Ÿ To organize study tour for fact finding on various issue to enable the
students to get an experience of field work and research methodology.
