Dear Friends,
In accordance with the guidelines provided by the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC), our college established the Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC). Since its inception, Dr. K. J. Jagtap has been serving as the IQAC Coordinator. The IQAC has played a pivotal role in formulating and executing various policies related to quality education and infrastructural development. The IQAC Committee has been constituted in line with the NAAC recommendations and is functioning as a fully operational body.
In pursuit of its action plan for performance evaluation, assessment, accreditation, and overall quality enhancement, the IQAC conducts meetings at regular intervals. The proceedings of these meetings are meticulously documented. In addition, the Action Taken Report (ATR) and the Annual Quality Assurance Report (AQAR) have been systematically prepared and submitted.
Recognizing that quality enhancement is a continuous process, the IQAC has been integrated into the institutional framework and contributes actively toward achieving and sustaining the goals of quality assurance. Its primary objective is to develop a system that ensures conscious, consistent, and catalytic improvements in the institution's overall performance. During the post-accreditation period, the IQAC has effectively channeled all institutional efforts and initiatives toward fostering holistic academic excellence.

• Establishment and Implementation of Quality Standards:
Develop and enforce quality benchmarks for various academic and administrative activities to ensure consistent institutional performance and continuous improvement.
