The IQAC is striving to bring newer initiatives pertaining to research, campus development, ICT adoption in teaching, providing better focus for the research scholars through workshops, coordinating Academic and Administrative Audit of the University, etc. At the end of every academic year, the University conducts assessment of the curriculum/ course/ academic programme by students.
The assessment focuses on broad areas like
1) reasons for selecting courses,
2) facilities available in the Departments,
3) quality of the syllabus,
4) internal assessment evaluation,
5) quality of the teacher in terms of regularity to classes, command over language, encouragement of students in the classes, completion of syllabus and
6) rating of the programme and the Department. This feedback contributes to the academic radar prepared by the IQAC.
