details of the events to be undertaken during the year. The College has Admission Committee, which looks into the admission process. The admissions are made through the admission committee, which includes a convener and other staff members. Thus, transparency is ensured from the stage of notification till the completion of admission process. Hence, access, equity and social justice are ensured through transparency and adherence of rules. Admission to every course is conducted under the supervision of admission committee of respective courses constituted for the purpose. The Career Counseling and Guidance Cell is always there to help the students. There are ‘help desks’ set up for helping students during the admission process.

The College practices a fair means of admissions and does not deprive any student from getting admission to the course based on religion, caste, community, gender etc. There are no seats reserved for management quota. Since admissions are given first come first serve basis, the college does not offer seats to any programme on the basis of donations/ recommendations.

We have added wheel chair access (ramp) to the main academic building and, an elevator for easy access to the classrooms. We also have railings for all the staircases and on demand access to wheel-chairs too.

It is clear from the above tabulated data that the students securing high percentage of marks prefer our college for admission at UG as well as PG courses for all the faculties. Note: The management has decided to establish a separate centre for PG courses in memory of our founder late Dr. Rafiq Zakaria. Accordingly the Dr. Rafiq Zakaria Centre for Higher Learning and Advanced Research has come up on the campus where a majority of PG courses have been shifted.
2.1.4 Is there a mechanism in the institution to review the admission process and student profiles annually? If ‘yes’ what is the outcome of such an effort and how has it contributed to the improvement of the process? Yes, the institution has a mechanism to review the admission process and student profile annually. The college has constituted admission committee which looks into the admission processes associated with the undergraduate and post graduate programmes. After going through admission process, an analytical study on students’ academic background, family background, demographic background, the overall profile such as caste, gender, financial background, medium etc. and level of disability is made by the Admission Committee. The findings are discussed with the members of Career Counseling and Guidance Cell and the Principal, and strategy is developed with required modifications for the next academic year’s admissions. Class toppers and subject toppers are given special library facilities from the central and departmental library. Academically brilliant students are motivated to participate in various intercollegiate competitions. Students who excel in academics, sports, cultural activities and also those who possess leadership qualities are nominated as members of the Student’s Council, to represent Academic, Sports, Cultural and NSS. Students are given opportunities to exhibit their talents and develop their potentialities.

They are also sensitized with recpect to the social problems and issues affecting the society. Slow learners are additionally tutored through remedial classes. Students who are coming from lower economical families are helped, through Post Matric scholarship schemes, Students’ Aid Fund, Fee waiver, Book bank scheme and Installment facilities for paying of the fees. The outcomes of such efforts are academic progress of the students, personality development and skill enhancement. The counselor takes into account the breadth of knowledge, interest in a special subject and accordingly suggests possible elective subject combination which fills further his/ her progress. Another outcome of the admission process review is to make the process lucid, transparent and accessible. Information regarding the admission process is presented in the prospectus. Prospectus of college is made available from start of admission to the final admission day. All information is also published on the college website. The above processes have made it easier for potential students and parents to gain access to programme related knowledge, have face-to-face interactions with departments and finally, take an informed decision.

Problem-based learning is becoming increasingly popular in educational institutions as a tool to address the inadequacies of traditional teaching. Modern teaching aids like ICT, LCD projectors are used for making power point presentations by the faculties to explain the subject. Faculties are motivated by the Management of the college to give more and more knowledge of concepts practically with the help of Audio-Visual aids. The advantage of mini projects in the classroom settings is that when students create them, they do the same in a group environment. By working in a group, the students would have to learn to work cooperatively and collaboratively, using their group skills and a variety of activities to accomplish the project's overall objectives. In the shifting paradigm of learning, the role of student is more important than teachers. The concepts of classrooms with modern teaching aids are emerging as a support system for the old teaching learning methods.

CRITERION VII: INNOVATIONS AND BEST PRACTICES
7.1 ENVIRONMENT CONSCIOUSNESS 7.1.1 Does the Institute conduct a Green Audit of its campus and facilities? Yes, the college has a rich tradition of nurturing a green cover. The conservation of the habitat leads to the sustainable use and management of natural resources. The college has gardens, lawns, green house and a very fine collection of different trees, medicinal and rare plants, herbs etc. The college takes special care to preserve the biodiversity on the campus through regular tree plantations and assessment of area under green cover. A green audit measuring the area under green cover, the total number of trees, plants and the fauna along with the chemical and microbiological soil analysis is undertaken every year.
7.1.2 What are the initiatives taken by the college to make the campus eco-friendly?
Energy conservation: The college is concerned about energy shortage and is forthright in stopping wastage. Tube lights , fans and other electrical appliances are switched off, when not in use. Some of the refrigerators used in departments are regularly defrosted. Instruments such as autoclaves and ovens are operated only when full to its capacity. Switches are labeled so that only the required appliance is switched on. In addition to these energy efficient LCD monitors, inkjet or laser printers are being used. Lifts are conveniently dispensed with and user friendly staircases are used by one and all. Use of renewable energy : A project was undertaken to produce Biogas from Parthenium plant species on a pilot scale. The college is working out the details of other lignocellulosic wastes that can also be used for biogas formation in association with “Green Boot Energy services”.
Water harvesting: The College receives water from two wells on the campus that are regularly desilted and cleaned. Thus the college does not have to depend on the municipal supply or tankers that is both scarce and erratic particularly in summer season. The college also has a well planned rain water collection system facilitated through adequate sloping and presence of storm sewers at strategic points for maximum collection of rain water. The ground water table is thus sufficiently enriched and the
Maulana Azad College of Arts, Science & Commerce, Aurangabad. 213 Re-Accreditation Report: Cycle 2 CriterionVII: Innovation and Best Practives
system of water collection also contributes to the increase in the water table of the two wells in the campus.
Check dam construction: There is expertise in the college with respect to construction of checkdams, Bandharas etc, however the college is presently not in need of these as there are two deep wells in the campus and demand is met effectively. The college has partnered with G-SEED and is working out the details with respect to the construction of a Bandhara in a village called ‘Rasoolpura” which has been adopted by our college for develental activitiesopm.
Efforts for Carbon neutrality: There is a centralized car parking facility in the campus which reduces gaseous emissions and is a step towards carbon neutrality along with a reduction in noise level. The parking is in synchrony with the campus precincts that is adorned with an exhaustive green cover and a noteworthy collection of flora and fauna. The native plants such as Bougainvillea, Syzygium spp, Nerium indicum, known to reduce greenhouse emissions through absorption are sizably found in the campus. Staff and students opt for car pooling, and pillion riding so as to reduce the use of conventional fuels and thus lessen the burden of greenhouse gasses. The students have taken up a project for estimating reduction in gaseous emissions due to centralized car parking.
Plantation: The campus is adorned with floral biodiversity that attracts a variety of insects, earthworms ,moths, butterflies and birds. The ecological food chain is left undisturbed assisting a natural recourse to the use of fertilizers etc. NSS and NCC students participate actively in tree plantation programs on and off campus, ably encouraged and participated by staff and students of the college.
Hazardous waste management: The practicals are such that use of hazardous solvents is minimized or stopped altogether. Nanoscale practicals have been standardized and followed routinely that further reduce the burden of hazardous waste. If it cannot be avoided, then it is suitably treated and buried in pits. Pathogenic microorganisms used in experiments are killed by autoclaving before disposal.
Maulana Azad College of Arts, Science & Commerce, Aurangabad. 214 Re-Accreditation Report: Cycle 2 CriterionVII: Innovation and Best Practives
E-waste Management: The old and redundant computers that are in working condition are given to sister schools and in some cases vendor is asked to buy back before the purchase of new computers. The obsolete computers are used for hardware practical.
7.2 INNOVATIONS 7.2.1 Give details of innovations introduced during the last four years which have created a positive impact on the functioning of the college. The departments are augmenting theoretical concepts with practical applications through conduct of lab visits, industry visits, etc. Study tours and material collections have been undertaken by various departments.
Interdisciplinary research work is a well thought-out research work that integrates several fields of study. Some of the teachers collaborate in research work and provide expertise in analysis of data, process modifications, designing of experiments, computational know-how, bioinformatics etc. Some innovative aids/ tools have been prepared, standardized and used in the research work.
The Geology department has a polishing machine that is being commissioned for commercial polishing as polished stones are used as centre pieces in homes or can be kept in gardens, lawns etc. In addition to this the students take up the work of geological mapping to demarcate rock types suitable for water percolation and collection of semiprecious stones on their field trips.
The departments have departmental libraries that are enriched with books, periodicals, newspapers and journals. Innovative teaching tools have been developed by faculty members of some departments. Career counseling and guidance cell is actively involved in conducting workshops on development of effective communication skills, Personality development and also organizing placement drives etc. The different departments have their own wall paper/magazines such as the View- Point@DCMS (Commerce) , Zoo-Vision (Zoology), Botanica (Botany) and Probe (Microbiology) through which the expansion in respective fields is
Maulana Azad College of Arts, Science & Commerce, Aurangabad. 215 Re-Accreditation Report: Cycle 2 CriterionVII: Innovation and Best Practives
disseminated, precise writing skills are honed and avid reading habits are inculcated. Institutional social concentiousness: The societal responsibilities shouldered by the college are varied. The college has a huge sports complex where local schools are allowed to carry out sports day programmes, free of cost.

Maulana Azad College of Arts, Science & Commerce, Aurangabad. 217 Re-Accreditation Report: Cycle 2 CriterionVII: Innovation and Best Practives
Two of the best practices followed are being elaborated and are as follows:
Title of the practice followed:
“Inclusive education for all, particularly the female students, socially marginalized, economically weak and differently abled students”:
Goal: Nelson Mandela once remarked that “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” Taking this further we consider education to be an all purpose tool that can be used to groom , nurture and empower the students with knowledge ,determination, sympathy and patience so that they tide through every crisis and achieve the best in life. All students are provided a campus free of caste, creed and other social evils. The college has a sizeable number of foreign students who come to our college and are treated at par with others on the campus. They talk of their traditions and customs and are given back our inputs. Such healthy exchanges enable them to take back home some good memories of their stay and study in the campus.
It is said that when you educate a woman, you educate a generation. Female students are provided a gender friendly, equal opportunities safe campus. The college has put up several suggestions and grievances box for them to address their requirements or share their experiences. This is evident from the fact that the number of girls students enrolled show a rising trend.
Our key concern is that the student who comes to our college to study should be given every opportunity to do so and should not be deprived of an enrollment particularly because of monetary shortfalls. All students who come with an address to the Principal are either given an installment facility, or the fees may be waived off or he/she may be directed towards scholarship facilities (EBC, Minority Scholarship, GOI). Thus no student departs from the campus for his /her inability in payment of college fees. Several needy students are also given waivers in exam fees and the resultant shortfall is taken care of by the college.
Students who are differently abled are also given priority in education and also employment opportunities on the campus. Socially marginalized students are offered scholarships, books from the departmental library, competitive edge such that they
Maulana Azad College of Arts, Science & Commerce, Aurangabad. 218 Re-Accreditation Report: Cycle 2 CriterionVII: Innovation and Best Practives
educate themselves and become torch bearers for others to follow the chosen path of enlightenment.
The relevance: The practice followed by us is of relevance considering the fact that the social strata from where some of the students come, have not taken education to be a viable option. Working hands are directly translated into extra income. Under such conditions, time spent on educating oneself becomes a luxury. Thus there arises an immediate need of justifying the purpose of education and reducing their burden by way of providing relief from paying fees and also offer them some placement opportunities or job work to augment the livelihood. Female students and their parents are assured of safety during admissions through effective student counseling and continuous vigilance through out the year.
The Practice: The practice of taking along students from all walks of life irrespective of their social status and financial backing is a responsibility on our shoulders that we carry with pride. We have facilitated the process of students joining the mainstream through simple efforts of enabling them to appear for exams even though the exam fees have not been paid. We have also taken care that there would be no break in education due to paucity of funds.
Evidence of Success: The process has yielded results as there is a heavy rush for the admission due to preference of students for this college. The process of admission gets completed within short period and college is compelled to request the university to grant additional seats every year. Since the environment is conducive for education, students also perform well in exams and have secured good jobs.
Problems encountered and resources required: The facility offered is limited and many more students can be included provided there are new schemes, additional grants, inputs from social and charitable organizations from where their college and exam fees can be paid.
Maulana Azad College of Arts, Science & Commerce, Aurangabad. 219 Re-Accreditation Report: Cycle 2 CriterionVII: Innovation and Best Practives
II) Title of the practice followed: “Single Umbrella Admission Process”
Goal: Admission is a time consuming and elaborate process. However, it can be speeded up if all the concerned services are housed under one umbrella. Thus, right from obtaining the college prospectus to the submission of forms, the student has to go through a number of procedures such as counseling for choice of subject, filling and verification of forms, online submission, scholarship guidance, help desk for problem solving and final submission after payment of fees. We thus thought of minimizing the time spent in the process through the positioning of all the facilitation units under one umbrella.
Maulana Azad College of Arts, Science & Commerce, Aurangabad. 220 Re-Accreditation Report: Cycle 2 CriterionVII: Innovation and Best Practives
Maulana Azad College of Arts, Science & Commerce, Aurangabad. 221 Re-Accreditation Report: Cycle 2 CriterionVII: Innovation and Best Practives
The Relevance: The practice followed is of relevance as many of the students or their parents are not aware of the procedures involved and if they have to move around the campus for doing so, it can be quite time consuming. Often the students have to be guided time and gain and thus the proximity of the admission committee near the office premises as well as the online submission centre was a much needed requirement. The Practice: The college constitutes an efficient admission committee every year whose members are rotated so that all the teachers are aware of the norms and different subject options available. The college provided counseling for the first timers and those in dilemma based on their interests and marks scored in the qualifying exams. The general notice boards have the subject options and form filling instructions displayed on them. The admissions to Arts, Science and Commerce sections are handled separately by members of the respective teaching staff. The spacious seminar hall and the computer department (online submissions) are in the same building in the ground floor and can be easily accessed through large corridors that prevent cluttering. The facilitation centres/windows have clear sign boards and instructions displayed on them. The committee approves the admission followed by an online submission. The NCC cadets also help in maintaining discipline and direct the aspirants to the different facilitation centres. The Principal’s chamber is also located under the same umbrella and all application concerning the problems of the students are urgently (minimum turn around time) and sympathetically dealt with.
Evidence of success: The process is successful as a large number of admissions can be handled every day. The college has conducted 1335 admissions for B.A, B.Sc. and B.Com within a span of around 20 days. Therefore the gamut of admission procedures have to be conducted smoothly as well as at a fast pace. We are able to complete the process before the stipulated time and have also ensured that the process is error free.
Problems encountered and resources required: Presently the process has been streamlined and is found to be suitable for us. However , from the next academic year the college contemplates to provide computer terminals to the admission committee so that it can further speedup the process.
