IQAC
About
The UGC has established the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) as an independent entity under section 12(ccc) of its Act in September 1994, with the purpose of overseeing the standards of Higher Educational Institutions. In a bid to enhance the quality of these institutions, NAAC has formulated guidelines for the establishment of internal Quality Assurance Cells (IQACs) within Higher Educational Institutions, serving as a post-accreditation measure for sustaining quality. Given that the pursuit of quality enhancement is a continuous Endeavour, the IQAC will seamlessly integrate itself into the institution's fabric and diligently work towards fulfilling the goals of elevating and upholding quality standards. The core responsibility of the IQAC entails constructing a mechanism that facilitates purposeful, consistent, and transformative improvements in the overall performance of the institution.
