IQAC
Internal Quality Assurance Cell
In pursuance of the National Action Plan of the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC), Bangalore, for performance evaluation, assessment and accreditation and quality up-graduation of institutions of higher education, NAAC proposes that every accredited institution establish an Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) as a post-accreditation quality sustenance measure. Since quality enhancement is a continuous process, the IQAC will become a part of an institution’s system and work towards realising the goals of quality enhancement and sustenance.
The prime task of the IQAC is to develop a system for conscious, consistent and catalytic improvement in the performance of institutions. The IQAC will make a significant and meaningful contribution in the post-accreditation phase of institutions. During the post-accreditation period, the IQAC will channelise the efforts and measures of an institution towards academic excellence.
IQAC - Goals & Composition
- Development and application of Quality benchmarks / parameters for the various academic and administrative activities of the institution
- Dissemination of information on the various quality parameters of higher education
- Organisation of workshops, seminars on quality related themes and promotion of quality circles
- Documentation of the various programmes / activities leading to quality improvement
- Preparation of the Annual Quality / Assurance Report(AQAR) to be submitted to NAAC based on the quality parameters.
IQAC will facilitate / contribute:
- To develop heightened level of clarity and focus in institutional functioning towards quality enhancement and facilitate internalization of the quality culture
- To enhance and bring integration among the various activities of the institution and institutionalize many best practices
- To provide a sound basis for decision-making to improve institutional functioning in betterway
- To act as a change agent in the institution
- To betterment the internal communication
IQAC shall evolve mechanisms and procedures for:
- Ensuring timely, efficient and progressive performance of academic and administrative operations
