Functions of IQAC:

• Curriculum Enhancement: Encouraging innovative teaching-learning methodologies, skill-based programs, and industry-academia collaborations.
• Quality Assessment: Developing benchmarks for academic and administrative activities and monitoring their implementation.
• Feedback Mechanism: Collecting and analysing feedback from students, faculty, alumni, and stakeholders for continuous improvement.
• Capacity Building: Organising faculty development programs (FDPs), workshops, and seminars to enhance professional competencies.
• Research & Innovation Promotion: Encouraging interdisciplinary research, collaborations, and publications.
• Accreditation and Compliance: Facilitating NAAC accreditation, NIRF rankings, and other quality assurance initiatives.
• Community Engagement: Strengthening extension activities and social outreach programs for holistic institutional growth.

By integrating quality assurance strategies into the institutional framework, IQAC acts as a catalyst for academic excellence, governance transparency, and sustainable institutional development.
