Self Study Report for Re-Accreditation Principal‟s Message It is with great and immense pleasure that I present the Self Study Report (SSR) of our college to the National Assessment & Accreditation Council (NAAC), Bangalore for Re-accreditation. In 1961, under the umbrella of Dayanand Education Society Dayanand Arts, Commerce & Science College started and in 1967 Arts, Commerce and Science streams were bifurcated in three separate wings with a separate Dayanand Science College established. Recently our Institute celebrated its golden jubilee year by organizing series of functions and events with closing ceremony in the auspicious presence of President of India, his Excellency Hon. Mr. Pranab Mukharjee. After the first accreditation of our college, our Internal Quality Assurance Cell implemented diversified activities to address the various quality related issues during the post Accreditation years. We have implemented multi - dimensional activities to enhance and enrich our academic practices. The college has completed with almost every recommendations made by the Peer Team at the time of first cycle of accreditation in 2004. In the year 2012 College has received the prestigious DST-FIST recognition. We are trying sincerely to reach the world of excellence by improvising our innate qualities, adopting innovative ideas, acquiring new skills, implementing new techniques and better understanding of our strengths and weaknesses. We keep on searching, renewing, expanding and attempting to be ever relevant as per the changing situations of the times. We hope to conceive and start with new initiatives to take this Institute to its next level in the next decade and will help to join the league of the truly great institutions. Integrated efforts and positive approach will lead us towards the ‘Total Quality’, our ultimate destination. This report is the synergic outcome of all the organs of our College. It is rather difficult to quote the contribution of each and every organ of the college. The NAAC Coordinator Dr. S. S. Bellale along with steering committee members worked hard and taken lot of efforts to prepare this SSR. I appreciate the cooperation put in by the management and other members of the staff for this collaborative and collective venture with an open heart. I hope this report will find criteria wise worthy and believe to justify our sincere endeavor. Dr. Jaiprakash S. Dargad Principal Cycle2 Page 9 Dayanand Science College, Latur (M.S.) Self Study Report for Re-Accreditation Executive Summary: 1. The few words about the trust and the Institution: It was fifty two years ago, when the leading citizens from the different fields of life of Latur area, namely: Shri. Manikraoji Sonavane, Shri Chandrashekharji Bajpai, Shri. Keshavraoji Sonavane, Shri. Ramgopalji Rathi, Shri. Nathmalji Inani, Shri. Shantilalji Shah and Shri. Madanlalji Biyani, recognized the importance of higher education in order to achieve the overall progress and prosperity of the region. These dignitaries came together and decided to start a college in Latur. As many of them were followers of “Arya Samaj‟, they proposed the name of Swami Dayanand for the education society. Hence, the name“Dayanand Education Society”. The modest beginning was the foundation of Dayanand College of Arts, Science and Commerce Latur, in the year 1961. In 1964, the inclusion of Late Shri Raja Narayanlalji Lahoti in the society, gave enormous moral support to the development of the society. The society has now made such a rapid progress with the establishment of three separate single faculty colleges by the society. It was felt by the Society to offer quality education in science to the students of this rural area. Therefore Science College was separated with an independent status as “Dayanand Science College, Latur” in the year 1967.
