Report on Students’ Feedback
Every year the college arranges for students assessment on different aspects of the college by the
outgoing students (3rd year, Honours and General) of B.A., B.Sc., B.Com., B.Sc Bio Science and
Geography separately with the help of different departments and under supervision of the IQAC.
Students are not required to disclose their identity by putting signatures and roll numbers.
In Format 1 eight questions on “Student Feedback on courses” are assessed by the students with a 1-5
point scale. Where 1 stands for poor and 5 for very good. The feedback from the students are collected
and departmental teachers are supplied with the observations of the students, which our teachers use
in different board of studies meeting, syllabus committee meeting and other relevant areas where they
think it will be useful.
In Format 2 students assess the departmental teachers under ten different areas with the same scale 15 and with same meaning. Departmental teachers take necessary steps as per the feedback of the
students’ assessment.
In Format 3, students assess the college infrastructural facilities provided to them under 10 different
heads. They are required to assess on four scales: Excellent, Good, Satisfactory and needs improvement.
The IQAC analyses the data collected from the students and recommends the management to take
steps as per the students’ requirement.
