PREFACE

Gopabandhu Science College, Athgarh, a premier non-

government-aided college in Odisha, named after Utkalmani Pandit Gopabandhu

Dash was established in the year 1963,with the initiative of some enlightened

academic enthusiasts of Athgarh, under the patronage of late Padmabhusan Dr.

Radhanath Rath, an illustrious leader and legendary, editor of the popular Odia

daily “The Samaj’, who cherished to develop human resources with a view to

evolving an economically and educationally backward Sub-Division like Athgarh.

The college which saw its infancy with 64 students, 07 faculty

members and 16 non-teaching staff has now grown into a full-fledged adult

degree college imparting teaching facilities up to degree level in Arts, Science and

Commerce stream. At Under Graduate level, the college imparts Honours

teaching in a wide range of subjects like Economics, Education, English, History,

Mathematics, Odia, Philosophy, Political Science, Sanskrit, Botany, Chemistry,

Physics, Management, Accountancy and Zoology. Computer Science and Bio-

and is marching ahead with a vision and mission to consolidate its position as a

premier institution of higher education in the state. In the year 1972, it was

recognized by the UGC under section 2(f) of its Act as an undergraduate college

and also included in the same year under section 12(B) of UGC Act. It was

Apart from academic excellence, various social programmes like

health camps, blood donation camps, relief camps during times of calamities,

awareness campaigns on AIDS, health related, environmental issues etc. are

conducted by the NCC, NSS, Youth Red Cross and Rovers and Rangers wings of

the college. Self-defence training is also imparted to the students .Our NCC

preparation of the Self Study Report, an epitome of the institution, has been

possible due to valuable guidance and supervision of our Hon’ble Principal,

herculean commitment of the faculty members and office associates.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Athgarh a former Princely state, now a major chunk of Athgarh

Sub-division in the District of Cuttack and state of Odisha lies between 20 26’

and 20 41’and 82 32’and 85 52’E. The Sub-Divisional head quarters are at

Athgarh, well connected by rail and road.

Long since 1960 the establishment of a college in this area was

cherished in the minds of the enlightened people of Athgarh. The dream took a

tangible shape in March 1963 in a preparatory meeting of the leading personalities

and the Sarapanchas of Athgarh Block held on the premises of Biswanath

Bidyapitha, Athgarh under the Presidentship of Padmabhusan Dr. Radhanath

Rath, Editor ‘The Samaja’. A resolution was adopted for the establishment of a

Science college from 1963-64 academic session at Athgarh. The College started

functioning in the Town Club from August, 1963 with 64 seats in P.U. Science.

The following year P.U. Arts class with 64 seats was opened.

In the year 1972, the college was shifted from the town hall

building to the abandoned C.T. school campus in Khuntakata village, 5km from

the town. An area measuring Ac. 11.05 with standing permanent structures

belonging to the Education Department was leased out to the management of the

college. The college was shifted to its permanent accommodation in the

erstwhile palace of the King of Athgarh. At present the campus spreads over a

compact area of 25 acres with a tranquil and serene atmosphere congenial for

ideal academic environment.

The institution was raised to the status of a Degree College in the

year 1972.Utkal University accorded permanent affiliation for Arts courses in

1971,and Science courses in 1973.The college was affiliated under 2(f) and 12(B)

of the UGC Act in 1972.The faculty of Commerce was introduced in 1980 with

64 seats. The Utkal University granted affiliation for Honours. Courses in

Political Science and History in 1977, Oriya and Mathematics in 1978, Chemistry

in 1979, Economics and Physics in 1980, Botany since 1988, English in 1992,

Zoology in 1994, Education, Sanskrit and Philosophy in 2004.

New subjects viz. Education, Sanskrit, Logic and Philosophy were

introduced at Under Graduate level between 1980 and 1994. Besides that, +3

commerce stream has opened Accounting and Management Honours with

(16seats) each.

During the last 52 years of its existence the college has undergone

various developmental works in academic infrastructure. It provides-Lecture

Halls, Library, Reading Room, Laboratories, SAMs Lab, NCC Room, NSS

Room, Staff Common Room, Students Common Room, College Office,

Examination Section, Post-Office, Gents’ Hostel, Ladies Hostel, an Auditorium.

The development of the college is attributed to the donations received from the

generous public, eminent personalities, Grants received from the UGC and the

Government of Odisha. The luminaries of Alumnae have brought laurels to their

Alma mater in their respective fields and are very much instrumental in promoting

the glory of the institution at national and international domain.

Apart from academic progression, infrastructural expansion the

college has an excellent record of curricular. The Students’ Union with its office

bearers co-operate in the college developmental work and develop their acumen

in active governance and extra–curricular achievements of the students under the

august and dynamic leadership of the faculty members. As a part of the extension

activities the college organizes the normal and special NSS camps in the adopted

villages giving thrust on major areas like blood donation, Sarbashikshya Abhiyan,

mass programme for functional literacy, health check up camps, awareness

programmes and environmental sanitation and relief operation at the time of

natural calamities. The inclusion of NSS and NCC as part of the extension activity

in the educational curriculum has greater educational value especially in semi-

urban area. Needless to say it goes on to seek and arouse in the students and equip

them with an opportunity to understand themselves in relation to community in

identifying the problems and finding their solution, It undeniably inculcates civic

sense in the minds of our students who gain substantially through skills in

community participation and scientific exposure, The Youth Red Cross, and the

Rovers and Rangers units also render community service through in house and

external programmes. As a part of the process in streamlining administration,

Discipline Committee, the Anti-Ragging Cell, Sexual Harassment-Cell, Students’

Redressal Cell operate with full vigour. The Career Counseling and the Placement

Cell provide avenues of employment. The Alumni Association and the Parent-

Teacher Association of the institution play a vital role in the overall development

of the institution.

The Yoga Classes and the ‘Self-Defence Training” especially for

the women students, helps in moulding their confidence, emotional balance and

uprightness in building a strong personality. The ‘Eco Club’ with the dictum’ Go

green, live green’ enlivens the students for an aesthetic and clean environment

.The ‘Medicinal Herbal Club’ of the Botany department envisages love for plant

kingdom and its utility. The ‘Literary Club’ of the three department-English,

Oriya and Sanskrit develops the creativeness and originality of the artists. The

College despite all odds and adversities has made rapid strides substantially

materializing the cherished ideas and ideals of its founders. It has been possible

for the college to be awarded ‘B+’ grade by the NAAC (National Assessment and

Accreditation Council) of the University Grant Commission. In spite of the

perceptible development of the college over the years, there still remain several

milestones to be achieved. This dream can be materialized with succor from the

UGC, the Education Department of Odisha and all those who champion the cause

of Higher Education. Trust we will march ahead with our mission and vision to be

the centre of excellence.

Self Study Report, G. Sc. College, Athgarh…………………..

NAAC: A step to achieve excellence in Higher Education…………. Page 107

Apart from the college administration, the students participate in disposing

plastic items, polythene, food wrappers, dried leaves, twigs, papers etc

into the dustbins which are further disposed by burning them.

Keep green:- Massive plantation drive is undertaken by the students

during the Bana Mahostav week. A small garden is maintained in front of

the library. Herbal medicinal plants are planted in the herbal garden of the

Botany Department. Conservation of energy is also practiced by switching

off all the electrical gadgets, when not in use.

EVIDENCE OF SUCCESS :

The Campus is kept clean. Students are groomed up to become good and

conscious citizen with proper mannerism.

A good medicinal garden with rare useful & herbs exists in the Science

Block.

Students are conscious of using herbs in food, as medicines, and cosmetics

purpose from different plants.

PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED AND RESOURCES REQUIRED

High temperature and high humidity is a hurdle for all types of plant

cultivation.

Shortage of man power in maintaining the garden.

Non-availability of funds is a great constraint.

NOTES.

This ‘’Environmental Protection’ drive has drawn the media attention and

consciousness in the public. Healthy remarks and appreciations have

poured in from all sections of the society. This external cleanliness has

had its reflection in the inner cleanliness development of the students.

There is continuous learning through sustainable innovations. It develops

value based aesthetic practice.

BEST PRACTICE-2

Self Study Report, G. Sc. College, Athgarh…………………..

NAAC: A step to achieve excellence in Higher Education…………. Page 108

The Context:

Traditional class room teaching and formal seminar are not sufficient

to develop the soft skills of the students. Students coming from this

semi-urban background have various limitations. Interaction with such

learned personalities from different walks of life boost their moral

courage, confidence, knowledge and goes a long way in the overall

development of their personality.

The Practice:-

It helps both the students as well as the faculty to enhance their

knowledge on that particular area with utmost care and attention.

Various experts like Scientists, Doctors, Social Workers, defense

Personnel, Forest Officers, Business Experts, Bank Managers,

Psychologists, Police Officials are invited.

The deliberations have a great impact on the students.

Evidence of Success:

Value based knowledge is infused in the students.

Performance levels of the students have increased in different

competitive examination.

Students have developed the thirst for knowledge.

PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED AND RESOURCES REQUIRED:

Requirement of more funds to meet the challenges of the

programme.

With heavy work load due to shortage of staff, time management

poses a problem in conducting frequent interactive programmes.

Heavy syllabus and Examinations poses another threat to conduct

such programmes.

NOTES:

Programmes are organized occasionally which do not suffice the queries

of the students coming from semi-urban background. So efforts are being

taken to organize these programmes regularly to enable the students to

heighten their confidence and act as eye-opener on various subjects.
