2.6.2: Attainment of POs and COs are evaluated.

The attainment of program outcomes and course outcome is systematically evaluated to ensure the institution's continuous quality improvement. The Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) of the institute has established a comprehensive and meticulous approach to assess these outcomes. This mechanism, developed after extensive deliberation, is designed to be transparent, scalable, robust, and objective, combining both subjective observations and objective evaluations of students' performance.

The institute employs various methods to evaluate program outcomes, program-specific outcomes, and course outcomes. These methods ensure a thorough and multifaceted assessment process, aligning with the institution’s goals for academic excellence and student development.

1. Formative Evaluation: As part of continuous assessment, formative evaluation focuses on the ongoing performance of students. This includes homework, unit tests, surprise tests, seminars, projects, group discussions, and other activities. These evaluations provide immediate feedback to students and help in identifying areas for improvement throughout the academic year. By engaging students in diverse activities, the institute ensures a comprehensive understanding and application of the subject matter.
2. Summative Evaluation: Summative assessments judge students based on their performance in university examinations. This includes both theory and practical examinations, particularly important for science faculty. Teachers also assess students' growth and performance through classroom interactions, question and answer sessions, and individual counseling. These sessions help in recording and understanding students' academic progress. Additionally, students' participation in departmental events, study tours, and industrial visits are also considered in evaluating their development, offering a broader perspective on their learning experiences and practical application of knowledge.
3. Pass-Out Percentage: The college maintains a high pass-out percentage, which is a strong indicator of the success of its programs. Graduates reflect the college's quality through their acquired knowledge, skills, and ethics. This high pass-out rate signifies that students are well-prepared to face future challenges and contribute positively to their respective fields.
4. Admission to Higher Education: Many students from the college secure admission to central universities, demonstrating the effectiveness of the undergraduate programs in preparing students for advanced studies. Additionally, some students achieve success in competitive exams such as those for the army, indicating the robustness of the training and education provided.
5. Performance in Qualifying Exams: The performance of students in qualifying exams like UGC-NET and MP-SET is another critical measure of program-specific outcomes. Success in these exams reflects the depth of knowledge and competence students gain during their studies.
6. Progression from UG to PG Level: The institute also tracks the progression of students from undergraduate to postgraduate levels. A significant number of students continue their education, indicating satisfaction with their academic preparation and a desire to further specialize in their fields.
7. Employment after Graduation: The employability of graduates is a key indicator of the success of the programs. The institute monitors the job placements of students after completing their UG or PG degrees, assessing the relevance and applicability of the education provided in the job market.
8. Overall, the institute’s evaluation process is thorough and multifaceted, ensuring that program outcomes and course outcomes are effectively measured and aligned with the institution's quality improvement goals.
