Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC), Hooghly Mohsin College

 

The Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) of Hooghly Mohsin College was established in 2007, shortly after the College was awarded its first-cycle accreditation with 83% score in the same year by the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC), an autonomous body under the University Grants Commission (UGC). Since then the IQAC has been reconstituted periodically in accordance with the NAAC guidelines with a senior member of the teaching staff as its coordinator.

In conformity with the spirit that NAAC espouses, the IQAC functions not as just another layer in the administrative hierarchy. Though its ambit is all-embracing, the IQAC functions as an advisory and facilitating body rather than as a source of administrative instructions. As a catalyst, the College IQAC strives to synergize activities of the different wings of the College. Its responsibility is to nurture an environment that is congenial to an ideal teaching learning process, research activities, and a transparent and efficient administrative process which is sensitive to stakeholders’ needs. Its responsibility also includes ensuring incentive compatibility for the stakeholders to discharge their respective functions to their full potential.

To this end IQAC gathers required information through regular interactions with stakeholders and periodic feedbacks through questionnaires from them. Important issues are deliberated on in its meetings. The College Principal being the Chairperson of IQAC, the suggestions for improvement put forward by IQAC has an in-built communication route.

IQAC has found that following a few practices can perceptibly enhance the quality of functioning of the College. The salient ones are the following.

The College IQAC is committed to a comprehensive SWOT analysis so that the dynamic potential of the College is never lost sight of.
