Preface
We feel proud to submit herewith the Self Study Report (SSR) of our college for the purpose cycle-
I assessment and accreditation by the NAAC. In this report, we have tried our best, to focus on
the strength, weakness, opportunity and challenges in respect of our college.
Chandrapur College was established in 1985 with the aim of dissemination of higher education in
this socially and economically backward rural area of the district of Burdwan in West Bengal.
This college got its affiliation from the University of Burdwan and started its journey with Arts
Stream and has grown with slow but steady steps to introduce eight Honours subjects including
Accountancy (introduced in1995) and eleven Arts General Course subjects including Commerce
General Course. There are about 2388 students on its roll with seventeen full-time teachers, one
librarian, thirteen part time teachers (with permanent status), 5 guest lecturers and ten
members of non-teaching staff. The whole infrastructural development of the institution
depends on the revenues earned by way of fees and other means, viz. Area Development Fund
of MLA and MP, State Govt.’s Building grant, UGC grant etc. Despite facing a lot of problems in
the way of growth, the college is making effort to impart quality education and helping the
community of this comparatively backward region.
We, on behalf of the IQAC of our college, congratulate all the members of the teaching and non-
teaching staff for their sincere effort for preparing the college for accreditation. We also
congratulate our Governing Body for rendering all sorts of cooperation and encouragement
which have enabled us to face NAAC for accreditation.
We are now waiting for the quality inspection by the NAAC in order to get accreditation status
which will undoubtedly help us to achieve our desired goal in the field of higher education in the
present context.

Principal,
Chandrapur College.

• During the last four years six faculties completed their research. At present five
teachers are pursuing their Ph. D. work.
• The Department of Geography has applied to UGC for sponsorship of a national

these are communicated to the students, teachers, staff and other
stakeholders.
Chandrapur College has a distinct vision mission and objectives as a centre of
higher education in the remote backward locality of Burdwan District under the
jurisdiction of Katwa Sub Division and Police station. People of the locality were
mainly agrarian ; but they gazed also at the world outside, felt an urge for the
succeeding generation that they should be acquainted and equipped with
enlightenment beyond rural complacency. Lack of transport and communication
stood a hindrance to the achievement of that goal. Since the inception in 1985,
the institution has been remaining the main destination of the school leaving
learners for higher education in Humanities. To make provisions for continuing
education after school, to make them competent and eligible for job
opportunities outside the local boundary and to make them good citizens of the
country through value based quality education have remained the objectives of
this institution.
Since the young learners of the locality and of the areas in vicinity come of poor
economic background and from the Minority Community, the college has
cherished a mission of becoming a centre of higher education catering to the
need of poor backward section of the society. At the same time it was noticed
that gender discrimination prevailing so far in rural areas had left a large number
of girls students deprived of the opportunity of higher education restraining
them within domestic boundary. The college in the village proved to be the door
step for them in the journey to the vast boundless world through higher
Chandrapur College, SSR-2015, Cycle-I

education. The increase of the number of girls students year by year remains as
the real and statistical support for this view.
Under these circumstances, the institution has set up its vision of spreading the
light of knowledge among the learners of poor backward and Minority
Community, particularly, emancipating the girls students from the darkness of
ignorance and leading towards the world of knowledge and self reliance.
The mission of the college has remained for long to extend all out support to the
students and maintain a learner friendly atmosphere in it.

the Heads of the departments in affiliated colleges in a workshop organized by
the Board of Studies for respective subject. Whenever invited to attend such
workshops, the teachers of this college actively participated in the programme
by studying the draft syllabus and exchanging/ sharing their views with others
and proposing the changes to finalization of it so that it could be forwarded to
Under Graduate Council and Executive Council for approval. This can be
considered as feedback from the teachers. As for feedback from the students’
end, their results in the final university examinations are indicative of the
difficulty/ manageability of the curriculum. Apart from this, collection of
feedback from the students at the end of the course in the third year through a
questionnaire filled in anonymously is to be done and the result analysis of the
same is to be conveyed to the university.

1.4 Feedback System
1.4.1 What are the contributions of the institution in the design and development of
the curriculum prepared by the University?
The curriculum is primarily drafted by the university through the Board of
Studies for the respective subject; the college has nothing to do with it at that
stage. However, before finalizing the draft syllabi, the university organizes
workshops in different subjects and the departmental Heads from the college
participate in such workshops to put their observations regarding the proposed
syllabi and exchange their views.
1.4.2 Is there a formal mechanism to obtain feedback from students and
stakeholders on Curriculum? If ‘yes’, how is it communicated to the University
and made use internally for curriculum enrichment and introducing
changes/new programmes?
Chandrapur College, SSR-2015, Cycle-I

CRITERION II : TEACHING – LEARNING AND EVALUATION
2.1 Student Enrolment and Profile
2.1.1 How does the college ensure publicity and transparency in the admission
process?
Admission to the college is normally done on the basis of criteria set by the
university and follows the reservation policy of the Government. Students are
admitted strictly on the basis of merit. The college uploads on its own website
(www.chandrapurcollege.ac.in) the details of the courses offered, eligibility
criteria, intake capacity, admission procedure, fee structure, rules and
regulations, prospectus and other information. The college authority ensures
wide publicity and insists on transparency in the admission procedure through
College website, prospectus in print, notice board etc.
2.1.2 Explain in detail the criteria adopted and process of admission (Ex. (i) merit (ii)
common admission test conducted by state agencies and national agencies (iii)
combination of merit and entrance test or merit, entrance test and interview
(iv) any other) to various programmes of the Institution.
Before 2013-14 academic session admission took place in two phases. One phase
was meant for Hons. Course students and the other for General Course students.
For the students seeking admission to Hons. Courses, merit lists were prepared
on the basis of marks obtained in the Higher Secondary Examination, for display
on the college notice board. The candidates featuring in the merit lists were
asked to attend counseling session on the fixed day/ days and get themselves
admitted till the seats were vacant. In case of General Course students the
admission was made on the basis of the marks obtained in the H.S. Examination
till the seats were vacant. In 2013-14 session, the university adopted centrally on-
line system for admission to Honours Courses, leaving the admission to General
Chandrapur College, SSR-2015, Cycle-I
47
Courses to the responsibility of the respective colleges. From 2015-16 session,
again, as per Government directive all admissions were done through its own on-
line system of the college. In all cases, however, admission was purely merit
based. The entire process of admission with the details of eligibility criteria along
with merit lists was uploaded on the college website well in advance. Seats
reserved for the backward classes and physically challenged students were filled
up following the provision of Govt. reservation policy. The college followed the
stipulation of the last date of admission in all cases as fixed by the university.
2.1.3 Give the minimum and maximum percentage of marks for admission at entry
level for each of the programmes offered by the college and provide a
comparison with other colleges of the affiliating university within the
city/district.
The eligibility for admission to the UG Courses, as set by the university, remains
at least 45% marks in the H.S. or its equivalent examination. The college,
however, has set its own eligibility criteria, which vary from subject to subject
and the same have been shown categorically in the college Prospectus.
Furnished below is the comparison with a neighbouring college in respect of
minimum and maximum percentage of marks for admission at entry level for
each of the porogrammes offered by the college.

2.1.4 Is there a mechanism in the institution to review the admission process and
student profiles annually? If yes, what is the outcome of such an effort and how
has it contributed to the improvement of the process?
Yes, there is an Admission Committee which monitors the whole admission
process and reviews it from time to time so that seats do not remain vacant. The
Admission Committee decides on the following:
1. Admission guidelines and schedules
2. Criteria for admission as per university norms
3. Finalization of Merit List
4. Areas of concern during the admission process and their solutions
The IQAC Coordinator and the TCS supervise the whole procedure. All
notifications regarding admission process, eligibility criteria, prospectus, rules
Chandrapur College, SSR-2015, Cycle-I
49
and regulations, choice of subject combinations and fees etc. are displayed in the
college website and also in the Notice Board. The merit lists of all applicants also
are displayed in the College website and the candidates can download admission
forms with unique ID Number. The entire process is transparent and in case of
instant crises the Admission Committee discusses the issues and resolve upon
them. These issues are reviewed in the next year to check the repetition of
diverse crises regarding admission and attempts are made to make the
admission process clear and transparent as far as possible. During the time of
admission one enquiry counter also is opened for ready assistance for the
students.
2.1.5 Reflecting on the strategies adopted to increase/improve access for following
categories of students, enumerate on how the admission policy of the
institution and its student profiles demonstrate/reflect the National
commitment to diversity and inclusion.
The college appreciates the policy framework stated in UGC XI plan which speaks
of access and inclusion of diverse groups in admission. Accordingly, the college
follows the SC,ST,OBC,MC ,PH reservation policy. It also gives special attention to
admission of differently abled students. A great number of students come from
the minority community of the society. The college being situated in a rural
backward area the participation of women in higher education remained very
low for years. But hopefully, the picture has been brightened in the recent years.
There are some departments like Bengali, Sanskrit, History, and Philosophy
where the number of female students runs almost parallel to the number of
male students. Thus the college reflects the national commitment to diversity
and inclusion by giving access to diverse kinds of students to the institution.

2.4.6 Has the institution introduced evaluation of teachers by the students and
external Peers? If yes, how is the evaluation used for improving the quality of
the teaching-learning process?
There is a mechanism to obtain feedback from the students on curriculum and
teaching learning. This is usually done at the end of the course, by obtaining the
students’ views anonymously on the curriculum they underwent, through a
questionnaire. Data are analysis and discuss by the Teachers’ Council and
Governing Body. Teachers are made aware of their performance in the eyes of
the learners and are counseled by the authority to be more careful about their
job.

2.5 Evaluation Process and Reforms
2.5.1 How does the institution ensure that the stakeholders of the institution
especially students and faculty are aware of the evaluation processes?
The stakeholders of the institution especially students and faculties are well in
advance made aware of the evaluation processes through notices circulated
during the class hours. The detailed evaluation method and examination schedule
are informed to the students through prospectus, academic calendar and the
college website. The examination committee is formed in the meeting of the
Teachers’ Council to look after the entire process. The same is also displayed on
the notice board in the Teachers’ Room.
2.5.2 What are the major evaluation reforms of the university that the institution has
adopted and what are the reforms initiated by the institution on its own?
The college runs by the rules and regulation followed by the University of
Burdwan. A major examination pattern was reformed by the University when it
introduced 3tire (1+1+1) Examination. Whenever any reform takes place, the
Principal appraises it in the meeting of the Teachers’ Council. Accordingly the
teachers in their internal evaluation follow the reform and take care that students
also become aware of the reform.
2.5.3 How does the institution ensure effective implementation of the evaluation
reforms of the university and those initiated by the institution on its own?
The teachers are accustomed with new system of examination and new syllabi. All
teachers try their best to cover the syllabi. The college hosts the university
examination of Part-I, Part–II, and Part-III for the students of the adjoining
colleges. The detail evaluation method and examination scheduled are informed

methods are also displayed on the notice board. The examination committee has
been formed to look after the entire process.
2.5.4 Provide details on the formative and summative assessment approaches
adopted to measure student achievement. Cite a few examples which have
positively impacted the system.
To measure student achievement and the effectiveness of teaching, class test are
held. Answer scripts are evaluated and shown to the students. This helps both
teachers and students identifying the rooms for improvement. The follow-up has
ultimately an impact on the results in university examinations. Regular review of
results of students in the university examinations each year by the Teachers’
Council, the Principal and the Governing Body also aims at betterment of the
results.
2.5.5. Detail of the significant improvement made in ensuring rigor and transparency
in the internal assessment during the last four years and weightage assigned for
the overall development of students (weightage for behavioural aspects,
independent learning, communication skills etc.)
In ensuring rigor and transparency in the internal assessment like class tests, the
questions of the test examination are kept very carefully under the custody of the
respective class teacher and examined answer scripts are shown to the students.
The marks obtained for each test are recorded in a separate registrar supplied for
each department. Through these tests students are made aware of the type of
questions on the syllabi taught, in full. They can also be made free of examination
phobia.

2.6.3 How are the teaching learning and assessment strategies of the institution
structured to facilitate the achievement of the intended learning outcomes?
The teaching, learning and assessment strategies of the college are appropriately
structured to facilitate the achievement of the intended learning outcome. The
three aspects of teaching, learning and assessment can be related to three
quarters of stakeholders, namely, faculties, students and Governing Body along
with TC and university. Faculties, on their part, are well qualified, trained, updated
and research oriented; they take classes regularly. Students, on their part, are to
attend classes, tutorials, remedial classes; they are to join also extension activities
through NSS and sports and cultural activities. Governing Body, TC and university,
on their part upholds occurrence of class tests, test examinations, tutorials,
remedial coaching and career counseling. Non teaching staffs’ role of active
assistance remains supportive and contributory to the strategy-structure. The
structure can be shown in the following diagram:

In view of monitoring Career advancement Scheme of the teachers, the College
established its IQAC in 2014. It became regularly operative with its official set up in
2015.
Besides monitoring the Career Advancement Scheme (CAS) and promotion of the
teachers, it is imperative to the institution to get itself accredited through
assessment by NAAC by a certain deadline. IQAC is entrusted with the responsibility
of preparing the Self Study Report (SSR) of the College. In the immediacy of these
two issues, institutional policy of quality assurance is implied, since the faculties
have to attain certain eligibility for their CAS and promotion and the institution also
has to enhance its quality to a certain standard for assessment and accreditation by
NAAC. It is the demand of the time that both the faculties and the institution have to
enhance their quality to a certain standard to reach their goal. Consequently, the
quality assurance processes are bound to be institutionalized. Some of the Quality
policies adopted by the College are as follows:
• Regular class attendance by the students.
• Regular class attendance by the teachers.
• Motivating teachers in undertaking Minor/Major Research projects.
• Flexible attitude of the College authority in providing opportunities to the
faculties in participating in Orientation Programmes, Refresher Courses,
seminars, workshops and conferences.

faculties and staffs of the College. It is not difficult to realize that both
academic and administrative activities of the College are interrelated. None of
the two types can run independently. Academic activities like admission and
examination run on the policies framed by the both quarters of the staff,
teaching and non teaching, in their respective bodies like Teachers’ Council and
Non Teaching Staff Council. Administrative activities also run by the policies
framed in the Governing Body representing stakeholders from all quarters.
Respective sub committees also participate, in their way, in policy making and
execution. Thus the existence of an integrated framework is felt which is

also reviews the academic performance of the students and IQAC reviews and
monitors career advancement of the faculties. In every meeting, the Governing
Body takes cognizance of the academic activities on the basis of Principal’s report.

requirements of these two bodies, from time to time.
6.5.6 What institutional mechanisms are in place to continuously review the teaching
learning process? Give details of its structure, methodologies of operations and
outcome?
The strength and weakness of the teaching learning process are first identified by
the Teachers Council. Performance of the students in the internal evaluation
through Test Examination is put under the scanner. Corrective and remedial
measures are taken for the weak learners. Governing Body also reviews teaching
learning process from time to time.

7.1.2. What are the initiatives taken by the college to make the campus eco-friendly?
The college is situated in rural area. So, the college does not pose any threat to
the environment and the functions of the college are generally eco-friendly. The
teachers, staff, and the students of the college are conscious of their own
environment and they do nothing which endangers the environment.
• Energy Conservation- To save energy, power saving electrical gadgets like CFL
bulbs have been installed within the college campus.

• Rain Water harvesting- The college authority has recently established rain-
water harvesting plant within the campus by holding the rain water and to
create awareness among the students and staff for the consequence of water
scarcity for next generation.
• Plantation- The NSS Units functioning under the supervision of the Programme
Officers often organize tree-plantation in the campus. These planted trees are
also maintained carefully by the college authorities.
• Carbon Neutrality - The college at its own level has taken up certain preventive
measures to neutralize the emission of carbon-dioxide. The college has two
flower gardens and one orchard to make the campus evergreen. The students
are very careful to protect these gardens. The campus is smoke free. The dead
leaves and waste papers are dumped in a pit and are not allowed to be put on
fire.
• Increase of CFL Lamps- The college always tries to use low wattage CFL lamps
and tubes instead of using high wattage bulbs.
• Emphasizing over the use of bicycle as a means to eco-friendly mode of journey.
• Installation and maintenance of Green Generators in the college compound.
• Emphasis over the use of public transportation system instead of using private
cars emitting enormous CFC.
7.2 Innovations
7.2.1 Give details of innovations introduced during the last four years which have
created a positive impact on the functioning of the college.

• The College has already installed CCTV in all important points for proper super
vigilance of valuable resources of the College.
• Faculties can purchase library books.
• Faculties are given study leave to be sanctioned by the Director of Public
Instruction, Government of West Bengal to complete their Ph.D. works.
• Principal delegates’ authority through creating various sub-committees which
reflected de-centralization.
• Two big movable notice boards have been provided to the Student’s Union on
which they can paste posters to remain the College walls clear and environment
friendly.
• A detailed attendance register for the teachers is maintained for recording
arrival, departure, classes allotted, classes taken, reasons for not taking of
classes, leaves taken by the teachers. This is authenticated by the counter
signature of the Principal. It creates a sense of regularity and discipline among
the faculty members. It may be a source of their day to day records which may
be used for their career advancement.
• Observance of Independence day, International language day, Teachers’ day,
World Women’s day, National Youth day etc. creates general awareness among
the students about the relevance of the occasions.
7.3 Best Practices
7.3.1 Elaborate on any two best practices in the given format at page no. 98, which
have contributed to the achievement of the Institutional Objectives and/or
contributed to the Quality improvement of the core activities of the college.
Best Practices-1
1. Title of the Practice: RAIN WATER HARVESTING AND ITS SUSTAINABLE USE
2. Goal: Efficient use of Rain water without depleting the ground water.
Chandrapur College, SSR-2015, Cycle-I
157
3. The Context: In recent time, the practice of using rain water from the Water
Harvesting system has been popular in the urban areas of India. Its sustainable
benefits have been felt in the rural areas also. The low lying areas of lower
Deltaic Bengal often get flooded due to heavy rainfall; but the huge water
resource could not be properly stored and utilized. Consequently, a large area of
Bengal fall prey to drought with the ground water level decreasing in the hot
summer. Under these circumstances, the use of rain water stored through Rain
water harvesting system has now been felt to be the need of the moment even
in the rural Bengal. We all know that Rainwater Harvesting provides an
independent water supply during regional water crisis. On this backdrop,
Chandrapur College has also set up a Rainwater Harvesting System using low-
tech method where the rain water is simply captured from the rooftop and
stored in the reservoir. This stored rain water is being used for watering the
gardens maintained by the College during the winter season.
4. The Practice: The rain water has been using especially in the College garden for
watering the flowers, plants, trees and other herbs and bushes. The Students of
Physical Education Department also use this rain water for washing their muddy
hands and feet while doing physical activities in their practical classes.
5. Evidence of Implementation:
At the winter season when the ground water depletion rate is high in this region
due to excessive use water for Boro crops cultivation. During this crisis phase the
rain water reservoir of our College supplies sufficient water for the nourishment
of the flower and fruit plants.
6. Problems encountered and resources required:
Since the water is stored mainly in the rainy season and maximum amount of
water is utilized during the winter season, very little amount is left for the
summer. Moreover, at the year of scarcity of rainfall it seems to be very difficult
to supply water uninterruptedly.
Chandrapur College, SSR-2015, Cycle-I
158
Best Practices-2
1. Title of the Practice: POWER CONSERVATION
1. Goal: Sustainable use of electrical energy with minimal electricity consumption.
2. The Context: Electrical energy conservation refers to reducing the use of
electrical energy. The idea of conserving electricity means that we should only
use it when necessary and avoid wasting it. This means doing simple things, such
as turning off lights by a single switch when we leave a class room and by
replacing standard light bulbs and appliances with those that use less electricity.
3. The Practice: There is a single switch on the outside of every class room and we
go through the practice that turning off the switch when leaving that room. The
students are also aware of this kind of practice.
4. Evidence of Implementation:
There is a single switch on the outside of every class room.
5. Problems encountered and resources required:
Since a single switch is used to switch off or on all the CFL lamps, tubes and fans
of a class room, the master switch goes soon out of order.

35. SWOC Analysis of the Department:
Strength –
Good academic discipline and continuous monitoring system
Weakness –
Inadequate transport facility for attending classes on regular basis from different parts of the surrounding area as the college
located in a remote village
Opportunity –
Most of students are engaged as professional in the field of Income Tax practice, Advocate and Financial Accounting (Computerized
FA) for purpose of auditing the Sole Proprietorship business in the present scenario, some students are engaged in self business and
it may increased in near future. Our department always inspired the students to pursue professional courses like CA, ICWA, CS, MBA,
LLB etc. for their future prospects.
Constraints –
There is a declining trend in Commerce education in West Bengal because of uncertain employment opportunity in present socio-
economic scenario. Beside, the university syllabus is not up-to-date for practical based accounting practice.
