3 PREFACE Chhatrapati Shahu Institute of Business Education and Research(Known as CSIBER), Kolhapur is one of the few institutes in Maharashtra catering to the needs of Quality Higher Education in Southern Maharashtra and part of North Karnataka by providing professional education, training and skill development to the youths of country. The alumni of the Institute have been serving both in India and abroad in the fields of Computer Studies, Management, Commerce, Environment Management, Research, Consultancy, Teaching and entrepreneurship to fulfill Make in India policy. To be an Institute of First Choice of Students is being realized by the stakeholders of this institute. The institute being the first in Maharashtra to venture in Academic Autonomy under UGC and Shivaji University umbrella, has achieved higher levels of excellence reflected in NAAC Accreditation, CPE and reports of the committees which have visited this institute for evaluation of the academic performance. High quality of higher education is the need of the hour to be globally competitive to meet the demands of market economy in the country and abroad. The NAAC has helped us in the two previous cycles to achieve higher levels of excellence by mentioning our strengths and at the same time indicating our weaknesses and the possible areas of improvement. We have no words to thank the two previous NAAC peer teams for guiding us on the path of excellence in higher education. We are very eager and happy to enroll the Institute for the third cycle of NAAC Accreditation by submitting this Self Study Report (SSR) to the NAAC, Bangalore. The institute has made significant contribution and development not only in the physical infrastructure but also in intellectual capital keeping in view the seven criteria of NAAC. The outcome of this development has resulted into the award of College with Potential for Excellence (3 rd Phase) and continuation of Autonomy by the UGC, New Delhi and Shivaji University, Kolhapur (M.S.). In addition to this achievement on an average a dozen Ph.Ds and 40 M.Phil scholars complete their research under the guidance of CSIBER faculty every year. This sustained academic development was possible due to Autonomy, support of the Parent University, contribution by UGC, New Delhi through its CPE grants, encouragement of NAAC, Bangalore and above all support of forward looking visionary leadership of the Institute. The Self Study Report is the result of the guidance and support by the Management of this Institute, team work of faculty, students and staff with the sole objective of reaching higher level of excellence. We are confident that in this third cycle of accreditation we will come out with flying colors. We await the visit of NAAC Peer Committee to the Institute. CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 3

This Self Study Report is the outcome of leadership, team work and passion which permeates into the Institute environment. Dr. M. M. Ali Director CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 4

5 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Chhatrapati Shahu Institute of Business Education and Research, Kolhapur popularly known as CSIBER, was established in 1976, by the renowned Chartered Accountant and the Ex-Dean of Commerce in Shivaji University, Late Prof. (Dr.) A. D. Shinde. He pioneered the management course, MBA, under Shivaji University. In the early seventies when the need for management education was being felt, the students from Southern Maharashtra had to go Pune and Mumbai. Majority of the students from the rural areas were unable to go for higher and professional education in the field of Management, Computers, Environmental Studies and Social Work, due to the high cost in the metros. Realizing this Late Prof. (Dr.) A. D. Shinde started MBA, MCA, MEM, MSW and M.Phil programmes in CSIBER with approval of Shivaji University and State Government. Being the first of its kind institution offering post graduate courses in all the important areas, CSIBER started attracting students from all over the country. The visionary leader gave a boost to the academic standards by recruiting experts in different subjects as faculty members from different states in India. As a result of his vision the Institute has become the first choice of the students. Along with the post-graduate courses the Institute also offers diploma programmes. In order to further improve the academic standards, with the vision of the leader Late Prof. (Dr.) A. D. Shinde and the support of all faculty and staff of CSIBER, the Institute opted for Autonomy in It is a matter of Pride for all CSIBERITES that the Institute is the first Autonomous College in Maharashtra. The autonomous status enabled the institute to upgrade the syllabi of all the courses as per the changing market environment. The different academic bodies such as the Board of Studies, the Academic Council contribute to the academic improvement and innovations. In its first accreditation by NAAC Bangloare, the Institute obtained B++ grade with a score of 80-85, out of 100. In the second reaccreditation process the institute could improve upon its previous score and obtained A grade with CGPA of This was possible due to improvement in the infrastructure of class room, computer labs, library and the student support service user of technology and faculty research work. Many of the faculty members completed UGC-Minor Research Projects. The Institute has been sanctioned Major Research Project recently on Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises and Inclusive Growth during Past Reform Period in Maharashtra. The institute is also the first in India under the post-graduate colleges to be granted the college with Potential for Excellence (CPE Phase-III) by UGC, New Delhi. Due to the continuous support and encouragement of the CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 5

6 regulatory authorities, the Institute is able to undertake student centric academic activities such as Workshops, Seminars, Conferences, Soft Skill programmes, Business English Certification (BEC) and remedial Classes. All the classrooms are fully equipped with latest educational aids such as DLP and Audio system. Seminar hall for video conferencing, Board room for meetings, and nearly 500 seating capacity Hall for conducting extension activities and workshops is also provided for the students. Freedom is given to all the faculty members to invite resource persons from different fields and make use of the excellent educational infrastructure for the benefit of the students. The Institute also has MOUs with Solapur University, Lingraj College, Belgaum, Rotary Club, Kolhapur and Cambridge University. By way of these MoUs the Institute is organizing student visits, faculty collaboration and conducting student skill development activities. With all the upgraded infrastructure facilities and the academic autonomy, the institute will strive to reach new heights in academic excellence. The Institute publishes research journal named South Asian Journal of Management Research. The faculty of the Institute offers consultancy to business and NGOs. The regular extension activities and outreach programmes is the important feature of the Institute. This help us to work for the benefit of the society.

22 C. Criteria-Wise Inputs CRITERION I : CURRICULAR ASPECTS 1.1 Curriculum Design and Development How are the institutional vision / mission reflected in the academic programmes of the College? VISION & MISSION STATEMENTS OF SIBER VISION To Be An Institute of First Choice of The Students MISSION 1. To Provide professional education and training to students in general and particularly those from and around Southern Maharashtra which is predominantly rural. 2. To provide facilities and training to teaching and research community in higher and professional education. 3. To promote confidence and motivate faculty and staff to efficiently address the expectations of the student community and society at large. 4. To equip the student community, through academic autonomy to face future challenges. 5. To inculcate the spirit of dignity of the individual, excellence and service. The institute was established by Late Prof. Dr. A. D. Shinde to provide professional education and training in Commerce and Management, Computer Studies and Environment Management, Environment Science and Safety, Social Work and Sociology etc. in this part of the country especially for the students coming from the Western Maharashtra and North Karnataka. During 1970s most of the students desiring for professional education were migrating to metropolitan cities like Mumbai and Bangalore etc. This number of students, going to metropolitian cities, was miniscule because moving to metropolitan cities was costly. The meritorious deserving students coming from poor and middle class CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 22

23 families found it difficult to migrate to metros for higher education. Late Prof. Dr. A. D. Shinde wanted to impart professional education at an affordable, reasonable cost to the students, hence he started the multidisciplinary programs such as Master of Business Administration (MBA) Master of Computer Application (MCA) Master of Commerce (M.Com.) Master of Social Work (MSW) Master of Environment Management (MEM) Master of Environment and Safety (M.Sc.(Envt. & Safety)) Master of Philosophy (M.Phil) Diploma in Business Management (DBM) Post Graduate Diploma in Computer Application and Diplomas in other areas namely cooperatives, banking etc. These programmes mentioned above and new innovative programmes started subsequently translated the spirit of vision and mission into the reality at the Institute. For this the following steps were initiated at the Institute 1) The fees of the programs were kept reasonably low as compared to the fees of the institutes in the metropolitan cities. 2) The admissions were made on merit bases and to have inclusive education the reservation rules and regulations of the State Government were adhered to by the institute. 3) The curricula of the programmes have been continuously upgraded with the approval of Board of Studies, Academic Council and Governing Council of the Institute wherein experts advice is continuously sought. Our curricula and innovative programmes were an examples for others to follow. 4) The state of the art infrastructure facilities has been made available at the institute to the students, faculty and research scholars. This was possible due to Autonomous Status and CPE granted by UGC, New Delhi. 5) The faculty is being continuously encouraged to organize Seminars / Conferences, Workshops, Training Programmes in the institute to enhance the level of knowledge among the faculty members. The faculty members are encouraged to publish the research papers and CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 23

24 were deputed to the institute of repute for Faculty Development Programmes. 6) Placement activities and Alumni activities have been strengthened over the period of time. 7) The multi-disciplinary programmes were provided at the Institute to widen perspective on Management, Social Work, Environment and Computer Studies etc. with introduction of subjects like Business Ethics. 8) The real life experiences of organizations and professionals were emphasized in teaching in a focused manner through practicals, soft skills, case studies and problem solvings, rural camps and use of technology e.g. MOODLE software. 9) Those already holding responsible positions in the field of management, IT, social work, environment and agriculture and agribusiness were invited for talks and participation in executive development programme / training. The major considerations addressed by the goals and objectives of the Institution are i) Intellectual The students from western Maharashtra were getting traditional education through University structure which was not challenging intellectually. Hence, the courses designed and curricula developed by the Institute s Board of Studies (BOS) and Academic Council (AC) have been made academically dynamic. So that it works as a intellectual challenge to faculty and students. This is done through seminar courses; value added courses, Cambridge University BEC course, multiple choice for specialization, internal credit system and continuous evaluation with CGPA system. ii) Academic Multi-disciplinary approach is adopted in design and development of syllabi of all the programmes. Formal and informal consideration and consultation is done by the faculty while framing the syllabi. In order to provide training, adequate emphasis is provided in syllabi for field work, summer placement and project work and permanent placement. CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 24

25 iii) National Development National Development is a function of human capital. In designing and development of programmes and syllabi, attention is given to the national development priorities. e.g. awareness of environment is introduced in the syllabi of MBA, MSW etc. The paper on Environment Management is compulsory for these courses. Computer application, Management practices, professionalism in Social Work and Rural Development fit into the priorities of National Development. When one studies the syllabi of all our programmes, one finds that multidisciplinary approach is adopted which will enable the students to take holistic view in problem solving. More than 50% of students coming to this Institute are from rural areas, who are weak in communication, technical and science subjects. They are brought on par with the other students by engaging them in foundation and remedial classes. Value orientation like hard working, life-long learning, team work and leadership, moral and motivation etc. are taken care of in syllabi and programmes. While framing the syllabi, the organizations and other stake holders are consulted. This makes the students to get employment in the areas of IT, Management, Environment, Marketing, NGOs and Finance etc Describe the mechanism used in the design and development of the curriculum? Give details on the process. (Need Assessment, Feedback, etc) This institute is the first Autonomous College / Institute in the State of Maharashtra. The Autonomy was granted to the institute by UGC, New Delhi and Shivaji University, Kolhapur in the year As the institute is an Autonomous, it is empowered and has full academic freedom to introduce not only the changes in curricula but also the innovative programs. The institute has formed the bodies like Board of Studies (BOS), Academic Council and Governing Body / Council as per the guidelines of the UGC and statute 457 of the University. These bodies are represented by Industrialist, Academicians and Industry experts. The faculty members interact with stakeholders such as students, business houses, trade, colleagues and take into consideration the syllabus of the reputed institutions and make the proposals in BOS for introduction of changes in the syllabi and innovative programmes. The proceedings of the BOS come for considerations in the meeting of Academic Council, where in the deliberation take place and the changes in the syllabi are accepted or rejected or refereed back. Afterword the proceedings of the Academic CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 25

26 Council come to the Governing Council. After the approval of Governing Council these changes in the syllabi are implemented from the new academic year How does the College involve industry, research bodies, and civil society in the curriculum design and development process? How did the College benefit through the involvement of the stakeholders? Members from Industry, Academia and Society are part of the different statutory bodies / committees in the Institute. The resolutions and suggestions given by the Board of the Studies are discussed in the Academic Council and are accepted or rejected by Academic Council. Salient features of the proceedings of the Academic Council are submitted to the Governing Council for acceptance or otherwise. At the same time for conducting external evaluation for research projects, referees are invited from academic field and industry. Guest speakers from organizations dealing with Management, Environment, Social Work and Computer Studies often visit the Institute and enlighten the students about the recent development and advances in the respective fields. The feedback from these experts about the students during in-plant training of different programmes helps to bring about necessary changes in curricula as per the market requirements. The interactions with various external agencies such as Business Organisations, NGOs etc. have contributed to activate different specialized forums such as Marketing. HR, Finance and Production which help in updating curricula How are the following aspects ensured through curriculum design and development? Employability The Institute has taken many initiatives to improve the employability of the students. Field projects and assignments are a compulsory part of all the programmes in the Institute. Personality Development Courses, Seminar Courses, Soft-Skills Training and Sessions on Interview Techniques are conducted to prepare the students for the placements. The placement cell conducts written aptitude test and mock interviews for improving the confidence levels among the students. To encourage greater specialization in a particular field the Institute has designed new value-added courses such as CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 26

27 1) Stock Market 2) Taxation 3) Logistics and Supply Chain Management 4) Labour Laws and Labour Welfare 5) Spirituality at Work Place 6) Agri Business Management 7) Tourism Management 8) Advanced Data Analysis using M.S. Excel and SPSS A student has to complete minimum one of the above course to complete his programme. Innovation The Institute being located away from the metros, large number of students come from the vernacular medium. To improve their English speaking and communication skills the Institute has started Business English Certification (BEC) course in collaboration with Cambridge University. The value added courses as specified above are added in the curricula. In order to bring innovations in the comprehensive assessment of the students activities such as poster presentation, conducting value added courses are encouraged. In order to improve quality of research and communication skill the researchers have to present their different phases of research. The MBA Environment is an innovative programme and interdisciplinary syllabus of this programme is appreciated by industry as interdisciplinary innovative programme. Street play by social work students on social problems are demanded by industry because they are useful and innovative to them. Our whole examination system is an innovative endeavour. Thus each department has taken efforts to introduce innovation in curricula and academic working. The use of Moodle software by the Institute is an innovative activity. Research This Institute has always encouraged for the research activities. During last five years ( to ) the institute has produced 171 M.Phil. In addition to this our faculty members have successfully guided 85 Ph.D s. till date. The important research CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 27

28 findings which are of practical relevance are being brought to the classroom by the concern teachers and also discussed in the workshop on research methodology. For promoting the research skills the students have to take up field projects, prepare seminar reports, present articles from recent issues of journals and participate in caselet discussions in the regular classroom sessions. The abstract of the M.Phil and Ph.D. students are presented by the concerned students and all are welcome for this presentation. Faculty forum gives an opportunity to the faculty to present their research findings, innovations and advancement in their field of research. In the rural camp the students undertake surveys of a village and data so collected is interpreted and presented by the students under the guidance of teachers. The students are encouraged to use Excel and SPSS software for data analysis. The students of computer department give live demo of the software projects. These demos are available to public at large and the students has to answer the quires raised by the visitors. These activities are linked to syllabi of the programs How does College ensure that the curriculum developed address the needs of the society and have relevance to the regional / national developmental needs? India is a young country and its more than 55% of population is in younger category. These young people need promising career in the different sectors of economy. The prominent need of the society is to provide each member of the society a higher level of standard of living. To satisfy these needs the objective of the government is to enhance the growth rate and follow free trade and open market policy. To serve the different sectors of economy Managers, Entrepreneurs, Social Workers, Accountants and other professionals etc. with state of the art knowledge and technology are required. The Institute has made efforts to provide to the society the young hardworking Managers with interdisciplinary skills and holistic approach. They must be conversant with the latest skills in HR, Finance, Marketing, Social Work, Environment, Computer etc. In the institute syllabi, we have tried to incorporate interdisciplinary approach and at the same time there is a scope in syllabi to develop entrepreneurship, team work and leadership. These highly trained Social Workers, Managers, CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 28

29 Environmentalists, Computer Software Engineers and others will serve the National needs, enhancing productivity, production and growth rate. As per as regional needs are concerned we have incorporated in our syllabi subjects like Agri Business Management, Environment Management, Social Work etc. to meet the local needs of Agri Businesses, Social Problems and Environmental Problems. E.g. the students are encouraged to participate in environment consultancy and research, on the software projects of companies, different summer projects and rural camps wherein they have the feel of real life situation. Our academic rigor, the examination system and pedagogy etc. are synthesized in making a new man from a raw graduate to take care of needs of society, region and nation To what extent does the College use the guidelines of the regulatory bodies for developing or restructuring the curricula? Has the College been instrumental in leading any curricular reform which has created a national impact? The Institute refers to the model curricula given by regulating authorities such as UGC and AICTE. The Autonomous status gives the required freedom to introduce innovation as well as upgrade the curricula as per the regional / national needs. The Institute has also pioneered by designing a first of its kind Post- Graduate programme in MBA (Environment Management). The programme initiated by using the academic freedom provided by the Autonomous status received immediate approval from the regulating authorities and overwhelming response from the student community. The Institute has also introduced M.Sc. (Environment and Safety) course under the faculty of Science. These new programmes address the current Global and National concerns of environment protection and sustainability. By way of these innovative programmes the Institute is fulfilling its responsibility by providing trained environment professionals who are required in International and National agencies dealing with these critical issues.

Six Sigma yellow belt Certification program The fundamental objective of the Six Sigma methodology is the implementation of a measurement-based strategy that focuses on process improvement and variation reduction through the application of Six Sigma improvement projects. This is accomplished through the use of two Six Sigma sub-methodologies: DMAIC and DMADV. The Six Sigma DMAIC process (defines, measure, analyze, improve, control) is an improvement system for existing processes falling below specification and looking for incremental improvement. The Six Sigma DMADV process (define, measure, analyze, design, verify) is an improvement system used to develop new processes or products at Six Sigma quality levels. It can also be employed if a current process requires more than just incremental improvement. Both Six Sigma processes are executed by Six Sigma Green Belts and Six Sigma Black Belts, and are overseen by Six Sigma Master Black Belts. The statistical representation of Six Sigma describes quantitatively how a process is performing. To achieve Six Sigma, a process must not produce more than 3.4 defects per million opportunities. A Six Sigma defect is defined as anything outside of customer specifications. A Six Sigma opportunity is then the total quantity of chances for a defect. Process sigma can easily be calculated using a Six Sigma calculator. CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 150

Generally the Heads of the Department, the Chairman of the Programme and the Coordinators of the classes are rotated after every four to five years. This gives an opportunity for middle level and junior level faculty to assume the responsibility of leadership. In addition to this the faculty also assumes the role of Chairmen and the members of Admission Committees of different programmes. Since the institute is an Autonomous the academic administration and leadership is a challenging job which the faculty has shouldered successfully over for last twenty years.

ShindeSevakanchiSahakari Path Sanstha Ltd., CSIBER, Kolhapur. The society initially was provided financial support by the Institute so that Employee s Society could provide the loans to the members for construction of houses, for buying the vehicles and for emergency needs etc. The society is in profit and distributes the dividend 10% every year. This society is managed by the faculty and staff of the CSIBER. Only the employees of CSIBER are eligible to get elected on its board of directors. Almost all the members including teaching and non teaching have immensely benefited from the welfare schemes initiated by the society. Apart from this the management also extends credit help during times of individual medical emergencies. When any employee plans to purchase / construct his house the management extends interest free credit as per the requirements. Those who do not have their houses in Kolhapur city are preferred to take the quarters on the campus or in the staff quarters. Staff fund is created for the welfare of staff. The wards of faculty and staff are given concessions in the tuitions fees for different programmes of the institute What are the measures taken by the College for attracting and retaining eminent faculties? The faculty is recruited from different states of India. There are some programmes which come under grant in aid and some programs are self financing. The faculty selected on merit by the selection committee. Those who are not in grant in aid, subsequently as per the vacancies available and state government policies, are transferred to the grantable posts. When faculty goes in to grant in aid generally they do not leave the institute because these services are pensionable. The faculty and staff are encouraged to build their own houses. The loan is provided by the cooperative society of the institute and some CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 176

177 advance is granted to the needy faculty and staff to enable them to build their own houses. Most of the faculty and staff are staying in the radius of 2-3 kilometers from the institute. The trust runs an English Medium school where the children of faculty and staff are given preference in the admission. These two facilities make them not to leave Kolhapur. The weather condition of Kolhapur is not extreme and the city is a university town well connected by rail and buses to Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune etc. The national highway NH-4 goes through Kolhapur and Kolhapur is a gateway to Konkan and Goa. Due to these reasons the turnover of faculty is very less. The culture of the institute is such that faculty are reluctant to leave the institute unless they have some personal reasons or problems Has the College conducted a gender audit during the last four years?if yes, mention a few salient findings. Yes, college has conducted the gender audit of students admitted to the college during the last four years. After the completion of admission process for all the programmes, the data about the students is tabulated. The table shows that the number of female students are almost equal to the number of male students. The admissions information is arranged gender wise.

The following practices are identified as the best practices of the institute which have contributed to better academic and administrative functioning of the Institute. a) Democratic Style of functioning b) Environment Sensitization practices a) Democratic Style of Functioning Format for Presentation of Best Practices 1. Title of the Practice Democratic Style of Functioning 2. Objectives of the Practice What are the objectives / intended outcomes of this best practice and what are the underlying principles or concepts of this practice (in about 100 words)? In any educational institution there are qualified faculty and staff working in different positions. Every individual brings with him rich knowledge and experience. All the working staff may not be equally coming forward to contribute to decision CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 190

191 making. In such cases the institute is at loss as it is not able to tap and obtain the benefit of the in-house knowledge and talent. Precisely with this objective the Institute has been following the democratic style of functioning. There are no barricades between Management, Faculty and Staff of the institute. Any decision that pertains to the student, faculty or the institute development is taken after maximum number of consultations. Even though there is a formal committee for any given activity, the other members are also encouraged to contribute their ideas. This has contributed to make the day to day functioning of the Institute very transparent and participatory.many committees are formed for effective functioning of the Institute. 3. The Context What were the contextual features or challenging issues that needed to be addressed in designing and implementing this practice (in about 150 words)? In the recruitment of faculty members the Institute has adopted an approach to select the candidates from all over the country. Due to this young faculty with up-to-date training have been able to start their careers in the Institute. If the institute follows a top-down style of functioning, there will be no room for the young staff to contribute their fresh ideas. Recognizing this, the management does not believe in making a distinction between the junior and senior staff. As and when required the help, suggestions and guidance is sought from faculty from all agegroups. This best practice improved the sense of belongingness of faculty and staff in the institute. These are senior faculty members and staff who may not always encourage the participation of younger staff in the decision making process. But the Institute has gone ahead with the democratic approach in all areas of its functioning. 4. The Practice Describe the practice and its uniqueness in the context of India higher education. What were the constraints / limitations, if any, faced (in about 400 words)? When any task is to be undertaken a formal committee with Chairman and few members is constituted. After the initial consultation the committee generates ideas for undertaking the task. For example during the mid of academic year an admission committee is constituted to prepare the action plan CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 191

192 for the admission process in the next academic year. Though there is a formal committee to coordinate the admission process, it is the responsibility of every faculty member to participate and contribute for making the activity a success. All the members of the institute involve in the preparation of brochures, posters and promotional materials for different courses. As a result the knowledge and experience of all members gets utilised in the admission process. Separate teams are made with the combination of senior and junior faculty for visiting different graduate colleges for career counselling of the student. The only constraint that is observed in following such best practice is the strict academic schedule. All faculty members do not find time to contribute to the activities to their full potential due to the trimester / semester pattern of education for all the post graduate courses in the institute. Inspite of this the faculty and staff have been contributing whole heartedly whenever they are required to stay back for official work even after the regular working hours. In all the subjects there are Board of Studies. The faculty members in the respective subjects are invited to attend the regular meetings of the Board. The junior faculty members are encouraged to contribute their ideas to enrich the curriculum as well as syllabus of the subjects. 5. Evidence of Success Provide evidence of success such as performance against targets and benchmarks, review results. What do these results indicate? Describe in about 200 words. In all the committees of the Institute there are senior and junior faculty as members. A new / junior faculty member also is free to participate in the deliberation and contribute his knowledge as invitee. For instance participation of members in the Boards of Studies shows the evidence of this best practice. In the minutes of the one can find the participation of the regular as well as invited members. The resolutions of the boards show how the deliberations have been rich due to the participatory approach. There are no blocks in equal participation of all the members. CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 192

193 As a result the inclusiveness in the decision making mechanism, all the members in the Institute work with a sense of belongingness and commitment. 6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required Please identify the problems encountered and resources required to implement the practice (in about 150 words). Whenever the practice of democratic style of functioning is to be implemented the biggest constraints are time and cost. All the faculty members will not be able to contribute due to their regular assignments of class work, examination duties, student project guidance etc. In case the discussions are scheduled after the class hours it may not be completed during the office hours. The other constraint is the cost of implementing the democratic style of functioning when more members both in-house and external experts are involved in the deliberation of a committee, the cost poses a big constraint. Inspite of these challenges the management of the Institute continues to support the best practice and believes that there is no other form which will bring the maximum benefit to the institute. 7. Notes Optional. Please add any other information that may be relevant for adopting/ implementing the Best Practice in other institutions (in about 150 words). The best practice of democratic style of management can be implemented in other institutions. The only prerequisite is that the management should have inclusive and open approach. In case of hierarchical system of management it may not be suitable. The democratic style takes into account the strengths of all the individuals working in the organization irrespective of their qualifications and years of experience. As a result every individual in the organization gets an opportunity to be a part of the decision making process. CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 193

194 b) Environment Sensitization practices Format for Presentation of Best Practices 1. Title of the Practice Environment Sensitization practices 2. Objectives of the Practice What are the objectives / intended outcomes of this best practice and what are the underlying principles or concepts of this practice (in about 100 words)? Environment has become a critical issue for all the countries. The objective of environment awareness and conservation can be achieved if individual colleges and universities adopt environment friendly practices. This will make the young generation to become aware of this issue of global concern. With this objective, the management strives to provide good working environment to the faculty, staff and students. The expertise in the Department of Environment is tapped to promote awareness both within and outside the college. This is done by way of organizing guest lectures for different classes on environment issues, street plays and faculty forum presentations. In the institute premises solar lights are installed. The hostels have solar water heating system. Tree plantation are undertaken to promote Green Campus concept. Students are encouraged to participate in all such activities and prepare posters on environment related themes. By way of this best practice, the campus has become green and the students also acquire the knowledge as well as skills of environment management, that is required for the world. 3. The Context What were the contextual features or challenging issues that needed to be addressed in designing and implementing this practice (in about 150 words)? The biggest challenge in implementing the environment sensitization practice is the availability of resources. Installing solar lights and panels in the Institute requires a good amount of financial resources. As the management is committed to the cause of environment, the resources required are being continuously provided. The students and faculty are CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 194

195 continuously engaged in academic activities due to the trimester and semester pattern of the programmes. It becomes difficult for them to spare time for environment extension activities. For instance, in all the local industries, the environment and safety street plays are regularly conducted by the students of the Institute, as part of extension activity. As and when the industry invites the students and for performing the street plays, they are forced to miss their classes. The faculty members too have to make substitute arrangement for classes to accompany the students. Due to this constraint invitation from few companies could not be accepted. 4. The Practice Describe the practice and its uniqueness in the context of India higher education. What were the constraints / limitations, if any, faced (in about 400 words)? The best practice of environment sensitization is need of the hour. In the past in almost all universities and colleges environment was restricted only to the faculty and students who was specializing in this subject. But in the present scenario we need the environmentally sensitise students in all branches of study. Realizing this critical issue, environment awareness and promotion activities are conducted for students in all the programs. The trained faculty and staff as well as the fullfledged environment laboratories make the demonstration of environment problems very scientific. The resources in the Social Work department of the Institute are harnessed to create street plays on environment themes. These street plays are performed in the Institute for students in different programmes as well as in industries as institute s outreach activity. Due to the continuous focus on rich environment training to the students, the Institute has become a knowledge centre for corporate social responsibility activities. The constraint in undertaking the environment sensitization activities is the rigid academic schedule. In the trimester / semester pattern, which is followed for all the programmes in the institute; the faculty and students cannot spare much time for such important extension activities. CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 195

196 5. Evidence of Success Provide evidence of success such as performance against targets and benchmarks, review results. What do these results indicate? Describe in about 200 words. In order to conserve the electricity, it was decided to install solar panels in the institute premises. Accordingly, the street lights in the campus are replaced with solar lights, both boys and girls hostels have been equipped with solar water heating system. To recycle rainwater, the main building of the institute is having rain water harvesting system. Tree plantation is taken up regularly with student participation which has increased the green cover on campus. To have government sanction for environment testing, the Department of Environment has applied for Certification by Central Pollution Control Board, New Delhi. The institute is proud to develop the unique environment testing laboratory with certification of Government, in Western Maharashtra. 6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required Please identify the problems encountered and resources required to implement the practice (in about 150 words). The biggest challenge in implementing the environment sensitization as the best practice of the institute is the heavy cost. Though it involves heavy initial investment, the management has always taken the lead to install environment conserving equipments. At the same time the students as part of environment training as well as social outreach activity are expected to perform street plays in industries and different localities in the city. This involves cost of travelling and financial support to the members involved in the activity. The student s regular classes, assignments, examination and seminars do not allow to spare time for the students. As a result the students cannot take up these environment sensitization activities wholeheartedly designed by the Institute. Publicizing these activities being undertaken by the institute is also a big constraint due to scarce resources. CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 196

197 7. Notes Optional. Please add any other information that may be relevant for adopting/ implementing the Best Practice in other institutions (in about 150 words). Environment has become a global concern, the environment sensitization practice at CSIBER, Kolhapur should be replicated in all educational institutions. Identifying the environment issues and designing programme for environment sensitization requires qualified staff and well equipped laboratory. At CSIBER, since there is a separate environment management programme, qualified staff and laboratory are available. But this may not be the case with other institution. So the qualified staff and laboratory may become a biggest constraint in effective implementation of the best practice. At CSIBER, the environment department collaborates with the Social Work Department to design street plays on environment themes. The skills of trainee social workers are tapped to design and execute the street plays within and outside the campus. This advantage of the institute may not be found in other colleges. Designing and developing the programmes could be difficult for other institutions. Any additional information regarding Innovations and Best Practices, which the College would like to include. Social Work professional education promotes social change, helps in identifying personal and social problems in human relationship and attempts enable people to get liberated and enhance their well being. Training students in utilizing theories of social science and social system, developing social work intervention skills at individual, group and community level to address various social problems etc. is the prominent feature of social work education. Besides collaborating with departments in the institute, the social work department conducts several outreach programme for urban, rural and tribal community welfare. The students are trained and encouraged to learn and impart knowledge with regard to role of NGO s and GOs in human resource development. The specific activities like organizing street plays with different social themes such as industrial safety, child labour de-addiction, adult education, rural health & sanitation, CSIBER SSR NAAC April Page 197

198 save girl child, gender sensitization and zero waste management. In all these activities students are involved in designing the theme and presenting to the communities and Industries. Every year the Dept. as a social responsibility conducts various camps like blood donation, free eye checkup, health checkup for rural and slum dwellers in collaboration with Government hospitals.
