Nature and Extent of involvement of faculty and students in academic affairs/ improvements. 

 

At the highest level the college has a division known as Knowledge Management Division (KMD). Apart from its dedicated staff, all the faculties are the members of that division. The Academic Advisory Body gives its advice and suggestion to KMD in which all faculty members of respective specializations are members. One of the major areas of working is the development and up-dation of courseware. It draws its input through a written feedback form. The other channel of improvement of KMD is the Dean’s Club to which students are nominated and selected from both the years which acts as highest body to give its feedback and the finding of Dean’s Club meeting is ultimately passed on to the KMD for its implementation.

 

Each paper has an academic circle consisting of members who are selected for respective terms. Their feedback rotates around the subjective aspect of their faculty, about the progress, about students field visits, seminars, workshops, expert sessions and all the dynamics of the academic papers.

 

There is an examination division for continuous evaluation headed by the Controller of Examinations. Written students feedback is one of its objectives, to conduct all university internal examinations and over and above this lies the responsibility is of conducting other tests examinations and quizzes to help the students understanding and grasp respective subject. To prepare student for the university examination under which the following activities take place.

 

Apart from examination result, 1/3rd students, out of the total, are identified for special attention to be given to them. Suggestions are coming through academic circle and Dean’s Club as far as identification is concerned and other are also to be listed in that category. The test marks of student is also one of the way to identify weak students. Once the list is ready special bridge courses are arranged for the students. Typically those students who comes from the non-commerce background are facing trouble

in math, vernacular students are facing trouble in English, etc. These are the students of slow learners. Special classes are held for the students to understand the points at a much simplifier manner not disturbing the regular class. Towards the end of the term just before the end of the program we have some revision class in which the classes are specially held to reinstate the points. In case some students do not register the points through progress of the class. BRM is unique for the following:

 

E-Pro Support System: The e-Pro student support system with an integrated learning solution approach ensure a student all round academic development. Our students have appreciated and preferred this learning style blended with concept building to application orientation.

 

E-Pro Teaching Methodology: With the adoption of three tier teaching methodology and with the help of LTM, VAT & TPD the institute grooms the students to meet the challenges of present day’s corporate world.

 

Student Induction Programme: A three day students’ induction programme is conducted at the beginning of every fresh batch. Top notch academicians and industry expert familiarize the students with the course curriculum and the business environment.

 

In every term there is an open session held twice with the students by the Chairman for any academical matter they like.

 

Mechanism/Norms & Procedure for democratic / good governance

 

Zero Tolerance Policy: The institute’s policy of ‘zero tolerance’ for improper behaviour and misconducts like sexual harassment makes it a safe haven for girl students. Moreover the policy of equal opportunity and counseling sessions on gender neutrality and equality, ensure that the girl students do not remain as a disadvantaged group.

 

Equal Opportunity Policy: BRMIMIT is proud to follow the policy of Equal Opportunity and is committed to the fundamental principles of academic freedom, equality of opportunity and human dignity. It lays emphasis on the fact that decisions involving students and employees be based on individual merit and free from invidious discrimination in all its forms, whether specifically prohibited by law or not. Complaints of invidious indiscrimination in violation of BRMIMIT’s policy are to be resolved within

the Institute’s existing procedures. As a policy, the Institute is against discrimination and harassment of any kind based on a person’s race, colour, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, age, marital status, physical disability, un-favourable discharge from the military services. The policy of non-discrimination applies to admission, employment and access to and treatment in Institute’s programmes and activities.

 

 

 

 

Student Feedback on institutional governance/faculty permance.

 

The open-door policy of the institute envisages opportunities for students to give guidance and suggestions for overcoming and streamlining areas in institutional governance which would ultimately benefits them in the long run. Furthermore, regular feedback appraisals of the teaching faculties has been found to be beneficial for ultimate maintenance of the teaching standards.

 

Grievance redressal mechanism for faculty, staff and students.

 

The grievance redressal mechanism exists to provide a forum separately to faculty and staff. For students the existence of a complaint register has proved to be a success since the reaction time is only 24 hours for compliance. We also follow the supreme court guidelines for maintenance of a Sex Harassment Cell exclusively for female members.
