45 List the teaching methods adopted by the faculty for different programmes.
Few years back two new papers were introduced at PG level, namely: “TRANSLATION” for M.A. 1 st semester and another namely “Terminologies and Specialized Translation (I.T. terms, editorials, advertisements, Drafting application, official letters, Press reports etc. in Arabic)” for M.A. IVth semester. The new practice introduced is that the students are divided in groups of five or six, each group having one or two comparatively good at translation, and others medium and low. A leader in each group is appointed from amongst the group members who is responsible for the performance of the whole group. Task is given to discuss it among their group members and try it themselves first. The teacher concerned keeps taking round over the groups, discuss their problem and give them hints and suggestions, encourage them and finally in the next round check their attempted translation sitting among all the group members pointing to their mistakes if any. This method has given very good results.
* During the last four years some 60 lectures were delivered by the following subject experts: * Almost all the staff members of the Department delivered lectures enriching the researchers and students in the Arabic Society during this period. * Staff members also acted as resource persons in Refresher/Orientation Programmes of Academic Staff College, A.

Detail five major Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) of the department.
Strength: Efficient faculty SAvailability of the latest state of the Art Foreign Language teaching technology
in the Department. Very rich library Identification of the Department as CAS by UGC Access to Internet facility for students and Research scholars
Weakness: Lack of funds to meet envisaged infra and supra structural initiatives. Instead of being two separate independent full-fledged UG & PG courses, one in
purely Modern Arabic Language including functional aspects of the language which is the need of the hour, and another in purely literary stream covering all major aspects of Literature having a very wide range, the present courses syllabi are badly amalgamated as it cover all these subjects in one set of courses, making it really unmanageable.
Shortage of rooms for teachers Non existence of a Research Division for Research Scholars Lack of Technical Staff in the Language Lab and the Library
Opportunity: Ample opportunities to meet the needs of academia and employment worldwide. Getting the department a permanent status of Centre For Advance Studies Globalizing the services of the University through Arabic language
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 270 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
Continuation of collective team effort of the staff members Services of visiting faculties from Al Azhar and other institutions of the Arab
world. Challenge:
Dealing the crisis of availability of feeders for UG and PG levels. To enable the Department rank among the top ten globally Making the department globally attractive for students by making it more and
more job oriented. Making the department globally attractive for research. Making Arabic as one of the popular options of higher studies
52
Future plans of the department. Introducing two separate independent full-fledged UG & PG courses, one in purely
Modern Arabic Language including communicative and functional aspects of the language which is the need of the hour, and another in purely literary stream covering all major aspects of Literature having a very wide range.
Introducing latest instructional technology Increasing the environment of team workability Bringing new major/minor projects from UGC and urging the colleagues for the same Organizing National/International Seminars and Conferences, with sizable
participation from Universities and Research institutes in Arab countries, besides those in Europe and America.

Detail five major Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) of the department.
One of the strengths of the Department is that it is one of the few institutions in the country which offers English Literature along with ELT at Undergraduate, Post Graduate and Research Levels.
The Department is one of the oldest in India (established in 1877) and has been able to sustain with the changing times and trends but now there is a major challenge of de-colonizing the syllabi.
The Department has no Interdisciplinary Courses or collaboration with other Department or University.
Lack of Adequate Infrastructure in keeping with the growing needs of technology and increased number of intake of the students.
Differently-abled students do not have adequate support system (academic as well as infrastructural) which may facilitate their exposure to the University resources at par with other students.
53 Future plans of the department.
Smart Classrooms More equipped labs and high speed internet facility to each and every student. Separate sitting area for the research scholars. Facilitating workshops for the students as well for different skills and specializations. Introducing short term and full term specialized Courses at PG and Doctorate Levels. Feedback procuring system from students as well as from teachers.

Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports Page 299 of 690
adopted by the faculty for different programmes. Dr. Zeba Hasan: Theory: lecture, Power- Point presentation, Class room discussion, test, assignments etc. Practical: The art practices involve student’s own talent, observation, knowledge etc.
The role of a teacher is to bring out the talent/abilities of students and to guide them towards producing mature and confident art- works which is achieved through discussions, demonstrations, guiding students in preparing lay-outs/sketches and also advising them to consult master’s art- pursuits etc.
The hypothetical approach of the subject is to encourage students for imagination and creativity.
Dr. Rehana Khusro: Fine Art’s subjects demand the perfection & skills with different techniques according to the demand of different streams. The teacher always take those areas where the student is weak and I always tries to make things easy to understand and for the knowledge for the students like discussions, tutorials, demonstrations, preparing lay- outs and let them to imagine about the topic and therefore they can produce unique piece of art as well as theory of related practical of different art forms. Dr. Waseem Mushtaq: Since Fine Arts is essentially a practice based course (with an approximate ratio of 70% practical and 30% theory) my emphasis as a teacher has been to see theory (interpretation) as an offshoot of art-practice and usually not the other way round. The main thrust of my pedagogic approach is to encourage my students to think and imagine visually. Dr. Hena Fatima Moinee: Theory: Lectures, presentation and discussions are given in the class. Slid shows are taken as help. Practical: Since it is a practical based subject and classes are taken both outdoor and indoor, the lectures and demonstrations are planned accordingly. For this help is taken from multimedia, documentaries, internet support etc. Further teaching aids are also adopted to make the class interesting for the taught. Besides this the students are always encouraged to take up projects that help in enhance new and innovative ideas. Abdur Rahman: A course of study based on studio and practice is merely relevant with other courses, and being as a teacher I follow certain ‘set induction theory’ to motivate and promote pupils to develop their skills and wild imaginations. I normally organize classes properly for undergraduate level to maintain the discipline first and then get introduce the topic little interpretive and analytic perspective adding with visuals, slides and most recent references ease to understand the approach and quite provocative to get a healthy feedback. Usually, I do change the method often to maintain the healthy class environment to make interesting and for better understanding so, Blooms Taxonomy is not bad. Dr. Bushra Naseem: Theory: Lectures, presentation, discussions, and slid show. Practical: Fine Arts is a practical based subject. We have outdoor and indoor classes. The nature of every paper demands particular demonstrations, which are given accordingly. For this help is taken from multimedia, documentary films, short films etc. All the necessary teaching aids are adopted to make the class interesting. Students are always encouraged to take up projects that helps in enhancing new ideas and innovative techniques for better and more productive results. Mr. Mohammad Danish:
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 300 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
As an Applied art teacher my concern is to develop the vision of students by introducing them to new media, but not ignoring the traditional mediums and encourage them to develop their own observation as every student is different in nature. I emphasize on demonstrating different ideas after setting a project of work for the students.

Briefly highlight the contributions of the department in generating new knowledge, basic or applied.
The Department is continuously revising the course structure in order to make it up to date and at par with some of the promising institutions of visual arts. Curriculum of PG course is given considerable attention which has been effectively running since the last four semesters. While designing the curriculum we had the opportunity to introduce some of the most radically innovative subjects e.g. Installation, Photo- Collage, Video-art etc. which have proven quite successful in creating a meaningful nexus between the confines of a studio practice and the contemporary world art practice out there in the metros.
The department has been asserting in updating syllabus, introducing new courses such as Advance Diploma in Applied Art, Diploma in Photography and Textile Designing (Proposals are submitted to CPC, AMU).
51
Detail five major Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) of the department.
Strength: Continuous endeavours for the progress of the Department. Weakness: The Department needs to be transformed as Faculty
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 302 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
of Fine Arts. A wide range of discipline such as Graphics, Applied art, Sculpture, History of Fine Arts etc. should be introduced as new departments to facilitate students with more choice and extensive studies. It will also provide them new avenues of collaborative and inter- disciplinary studies and research. Besides, one post of Professor, reader and two posts of Assistant Professor are vacant in the department. Appointments on the above posts will augment progress of the department. Problems related with infrastructure needs to be resolved. Opportunity: Recently Art Gallery has been given to the
Department of Fine Arts which will provide an opportunity to launch full-fledged art exhibitions on national and International levels. Art- workshops, lectures, demonstrations, seminars etc. can also be organized for the benefit of students.
New courses in the subject Graphics, Applied Art and Sculpture should be started in the Department because these courses have already been approved by the Academic Council in its meeting No. 736 and the Executive Council meeting No. 608 dated 31.07.2000 and the Visitor AMU vide letter No. F3-31/2000 Desk (u) dated 13.01.2002.
Challenges: The challenges lie for the Department to uplift the standard of art education and research at national and international level. Future plans of the department. We have been continuously asserting for the substantial growth. A detailed plan has been submitted in the UGC under the XIIth Five year plan for the financial assistance to start new courses in Graphics, Applied Art, Sculpture and History of Fine Arts. We visualize this Department as to transform into a Faculty of Visual Arts. The use and performance of Art- Gallery should be adhering to professional purposes. It can be run like those professional galleries running in the other part of the country where artists are selling their Art-works on 70%and 30% basis (70% goes to the artist and 30% to the Gallery). National and International artists can be invited for Art- exhibition, workshop, Performance–art, video-art, Installations, Public-art etc. We can also start online business of Art-works. Monographs, catalogues and Art-News can be published. Great Masters or famous artist’s Art- works can be

treasured as permanent Art Collection and their replica and post cards can be put on sale. Art-Gallery can be given on rent for Solo and Group art-exhibition. Hence, the Art Gallery can virtually prove as good prospect for benefiting students, faculty members and promoting art - business.

List the teaching methods adopted by the faculty for different programmes: For all the programmes the methods that are used are mostly deductive methods. These methods may approximately be labelled as follows:
Lecture-cum-demonstration method. Depending upon the topic power point presentation
method. The field linguistics mostly involves the analysis and
interpretation of the linguistic data. Therefore the method adopted here can be labeled as do and understand method.
Depending upon the situation a mixture of all the methods viz., eclectic method is used.
47
How does the department ensure that programme objectives are constantly met and, earning outcomes are monitored?
As per the guidelines of the university the department conducts sessional tests and terminal examinations.
Besides the above the students in each programme are given class tests, orals tests, class room interactions, home work, assignments, etc.
Sometimes students in a group or individually are asked to write assignments, brief dissertations etc on a particular theme and present them in the seminar.
Students especially at the research level are asked to write research papers and present them before a larger audience.
These are some of the ways through which the department meets the objectives of a programme and monitors the outcomes of different academic
Aligarh Muslim University

exercises.
48
Highlight the participation of students and faculty in extension activities:
Before the commencement of a semester the University draws the schedule of admissions and examinations; working days in each semester are fixed; the department has to follow this schedule; in view of this not much time is left out for extension activities.
Notwithstanding the tight schedule as given above, the department takes the M.A. III Semester. Students to some new area and they are exposed to a new dialect; they are asked work in group there; the faculty too participates in this activity.
Depending upon the available time students are encouraged to participate in various socio-cultural programmes organized in the Universities; they are also encouraged to participate in debating competitions, quizzes that are organized on the campus and outside campus.

Briefly highlight the contributions of the department in generating new knowledge, basic or applied:
The Department since its inception has an unwritten mandate to work on Urdu language and linguistics.
Therefore the work that got generated in the department on Urdu language and linguistics is authentic and innovative.
The research that has generated on Urdu language and linguistics can be divided into three areas- one related to the origin and development of Urdu; second- its structural aspects and third- its sociolinguistic context.
Apart from this, Urdu language has also been looked into from stylistic point of view; some work has been done with regard to translation and a few monographs have been published from the viewpoint of contrastive linguistic on Urdu language.
Some of the seminars workshops, symposia etc that are organized from time to time also exclusively focus on Urdu linguistics.
Even though the focus in the department is on Urdu linguistics other areas are not neglected. Thus the department undertook projects on tribal linguistics, sociolinguistics, language teaching etc.
Some of our doctoral research students hail from Middle Eastern countries. By way of working on the Arabic and English language situation in their respective countries they have generated a new set of knowledge with respect to Arabic and English language teaching.
A few of our Indian students have worked on topics dealing with Hindi language and linguistics; some have worked on dialects such as Bhojpuri, Awadhi, Mewati, Braj etc. Thus the department has strived to bring out research on unexplored and virgin areas and generate new knowledge in the subject.
52
Detail five major Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) of the department:
Five major strengths of the Department: The Department of Linguistics, AMU, is the only
department in the country which takes up issues on Urdu language and linguistics.
The Faculty consists of highly qualified, renowned linguists, who are visible in their respective areas at national and international levels.
In teaching and research high standards are maintained and academically our students are getting into prestigious institutions.
The department has a good smart class room-cum-laboratory equipped with computers and other required electronic gadgets which are highly useful in language/linguistics research.
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 328 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
The scholarly contribution made by the department was recognized by UGC and the latter awarded special Assistance Programme (SAP) to the department.
Weaknesses: The department is lacking in infra-structural facilities.
We do not have classrooms and sufficient number of office –rooms for the teaching faculty.
At least two senior level teaching positions have been lying vacant since many years.
Despite our best efforts a good number of our students are not getting into research programmes in prestigious institutions like IITS.
Again despite our best efforts a good number of our students are not qualifying for national level tests such as NET, JRF etc.
The department does not have sufficient secretarial staff. We also do not have a senior level staff in the office. There is need to strengthen the department in this direction.
Opportunities: The department is seeking to make interfaces with
other similar national and international institution so that interdisciplinary research can be carried out. One such interface in the form of an MoU was made with Centre for the Development of Advance Computing, Noida .
The individual faculty members of the department are seeking to built academic bridges and interfaces with other institutions of repute. Thus the multi-University project viz.,with Prof. S.Imtiaz Hasnain as principle investigator and National Council for Promotion of Urdu Language’s Project ‘Urdu ke Ilaqai rup’ with Prof. A.R.Fatihi as principal investigator are a case in point.
The department is seeking to be visible nationally and internationally by way of organizing national and international seminars, conferences etc. Thus many national events and at least two international events (mentioned in point no.30) are a case in point.
The department is seeking to make forays in applied areas of linguistics. While doing so the department also takes into account market-driven areas. Therefore introducing a Master degree course in language of Advertising, Media and Market from session 2013-14 is a case in point.
The department is also seeking to be more visible in the area of experimental linguistics. Therefore in the first opportune moment the department equipped itself with a laboratory-cum-smart class room. This has facilitated our students working in this area.
Aligarh Muslim University
Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports Page 329 of 690
Challenges: Even through the academic standards of the
department are high,standards-wise the department is not comparable to institutions like IITS, IIITS etc. Therefore to elevate the academic standards at the department is a major challenge.
Linked with the above point is that the number of NET, SET and other competitive exams is very meagre. Therefore to enhance the number of qualifiers of these tests/exams is also a major challenge.
Due to onslaught of globalization, explosion in web technology our lesser known languages- tribal languages and minority languages are at the receiving end. The department had proposed the establishment of a Centre for endangered languages. Despite our best efforts we have not succeeded in this. Therefore getting a Centre for the purpose has been a major challenge for us.
Natural language processing or computational linguistics is an area with a wide scope. Its growth has been enormous in the past two decades. However our department has not been able to catch up in the area. Therefore our challenge is to have this area in a big way in our curriculum and to develop this as a special area of study in the department.
Similarly experimental linguistics is also a growing area and hold slot of scope for the future. Except for a few minor items nothing substantial is available in the department. To develop this area in the department is a challenge for us.
53 Future plans of the department:
Well, in the current report we have described the present status of department and also hinted here and there at the requirements. Taking a cue from this we may elaborate the lines which we want our department to grow on. They are as follows: Centre for the study of Endangered Languages: We
have already proposed this and our proposal is with the University authorities. We will strive to get the proposal accepted and approved by the AMU and the UGC.
Language Resource Centre: The department currently does not have any facility for the documentation of Indian Languages and their changing trends. Therefore we need a Language Resources Centre for the purpose.
NLP Lab: As pointed out above the department currently does not have NLP as a subject/Specialization due to various reason. We have proposed to have this subject as part of our
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 330 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
curriculum from session 2013-14. Therefore we would like have NLP for this purpose.
Lab for experimental Linguistics: The department at present is not equipped with technology that is useful in experimental linguistics/phonetics. We require such a lab and plan to have one.
Now courses: Translation is gradually growing as a globally important area. Linguistics as a discipline has a lot to contribute to translation. Therefore in future the department proposes to start a full-fledged master degree programme in translation. Similarly we propose to launch a master degree programme in Applied Linguistics too.

Aligarh Muslim University
Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports Page 359 of 690
and Challenges (SWOC) of the department
Strengths: Research Work of the Department has been recognized at National & International level Weakness: Timely promotion of the teachers are not done, therefore there is a scarcity of
teachers and many post are lying vacant No proper space for Seminar and sufficient rooms for teachers for UG & PG Classes There are no rooms for Computers No Separate Toilet for Staff Scarcity of Non-Teaching Staff Opportunities Collection of rare books Challenges Appointment of deserving teachers so that student can also understand the depth and importance of Sanskrit literature and language and fare well in future in building their future.
50 Future plans of the department
It is now a universally accepted fact that Sanskrit Language is the most suitable language for Computer. It has been acknowledged even by the NASA scientists. Our Department will take steps in providing a well-equipped Computer Lab to the teachers and research scholars. It will help them in carrying on further intensive interdisciplinary research in various fields.
The Department has a plan to introduce manuscriptology as a subject to be taught. It will also have major research project on the subject, Short term courses will also be introduced in future.
Sanskrit education is incomplete without the knowledge of Pali and Prakrit. Therefore the Department will pay emphasis on the teaching of these languages.
A large number of Jain and Buddhist texts in Sanskrit are still lying untouched in several libraries. These texts are to be traced and studied analytically. The Department will work in this regard.
‘Dharmarthakamamoksanamarogyammulamuttamam’ For any short of accomplishment, sound mental and separate it physical health is essential. The ensure healthy mind and body, Maharshi Patanjali enumerates principles. Our Department has plan to introduce special classes on yoga which will be based on Patnajali’s Yogasntra.
Short term courses on simple spoken Sanskrit will be conducted through out the year. Teachers and students of any discipline can join this course.

Physics. One of the faculty members (Dr. M. Mohsin Khan) is associated with the International CERN project.
Department is also funded by DST, DST (PURSE), CST (UP) and UGC under various
Aligarh Muslim University
Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports Page 415 of 690
research schemes. Department has four research laboratories of high
standard. Mostly the faculty is young and dynamic, ready to
take initiatives, accept challenges and work in harmony.
Weakness: The faculty is very active but there is a little paucity of research personnel and staff. Also, there is lack of smart class rooms and lack of proper seating space in seminar library.
Opportunity: The department already got hold in the emerging

State whether the programme/ department is accredited/graded by other agencies? If yes, give details
Yes, admission to B.Arch programme is made on the recommendations by Council of Architecture, New Delhi-A-Statutory body that governs education and profession of Architecture in the country. All faculty members are registered as Architect with this body. Ar. Sanjeev Maheshwari, Ar. Nawab Ahmad, Ar. T.R. Warsi three associate professors of the department are fellow members of IIA, Mumbai and Ms. Sharmin Kahn, Mr. M.Khalid Hasan, Mr. Farhan Fazli, Mr. Khan Amadur Rehman, Assistant Professors in this department are Associate members of this body

Briefly highlight the contributions of the department in generating new knowledge, basic or applied
Department of Architecture had earlier undertaken Architectural Design/planning/Valuation/consultancy thereby evolving new design and plans which is akin to generating new knowledge in applied and utilitarian area
51
Detail five major Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) of the department
Strength: Good work and performance in practice, profession and higher education by the students because of dedicated teachers guidance in the limited resources of staff, space, funds is the main strength of this department. Weakness: Location of an Architecture institution in the medium sized town not fully developed city like Aligarh is the main weakness of this department at A.M.U. which results in little or virtually no exposure of students to well designed & developed Architecture and planned urban situations. The problem is compounded because of non conduct of frequent case-study, site-study and educational tours because of logistic (limited number of teachers allowed on tours of each batch, lady escort and availability of University bus etc) and financial constrains. Opportunities: Being a professional discipline, all the students graduating from this department either get absorbed in profession as employee, pursue higher education and research or start their own practice/ consultancy as an Architect or enterprise. Challenges: Department lacking in space, staff, equipments and funds for the maintenance of these equipments is a major weakness, challenge and thus a major concern of the department as established building and equipment is decaying and deteriorating.
52 Future plans of the department.
To make Architectural education less stringent on statutory requirement and make it a process of learning with fun and learning by doing.
To substantially enhance the level of competence and competitiveness of architecture students, high enough to be able to compete with the best in the world.
To augment staff, space, equipment and fund’s position of the department for the already running

Aligarh Muslim University
Page 458 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
published or unpublished. Originality of the selected research topic/area is ensured by conducting class presentations and research colloquia on the topics selected by PG/Ph.D. students in which the faculty members scrutinize the originality and relevance of the topic selected.
Authenticity of the data collection and the written work is ensured by the supervisors by continuous monitoring of their students work (regular attendance of PG, Ph.D. scholars in mandatory for 2 years).
Accuracy of data and other information as well as validity of methodological procedures are ensured by regular presentations of students’ work in research colloquia (for Ph.D. students) and class presentations (for P.G. dissertations) in which the Faculty members scrutinize and keep track of the work of the researchers so that misinterpretation and suppression of data is avoided.
The researchers are given freedom to explore and select topics of their choice rather than the topics being imposed on them by their supervisors.
The overall environment of the Department and Institute is surcharged with high moral and ethical values and the students right from their admission into the Department are motivated to adhere strictly to ethical norms of the Institute including, those of research.

This is possible using special connection of windings of a customed designed transformer. The proposed system automatically detects the faulted phase and provides necessary correction to output three-phase supply by recreating the outgoing phase. In case of two phase fault or outages of two phases, the proposed invention automatically shut down the complete system thus providing safety to the electrical loads connected to the feeder. In case of two phases carrying same voltage/current (equal magnitude with same phase angle) then the proposed invention will shut the complete supply and inherent protection to the load will be provided F**MJ No. of Pages : 15 No. of Claims : 5 The Patent Office Journal 02/10/2009 7095

RIZWAN KHAN - Address of Applicant: Assistant Professor, Department of Electrical Engineering, Zakir Husain College of Engineering & Technology, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh (UP) – 202 002 INDIA (2) Dr. Atif Iqbal (3) Dr. Shaikh Moinuddin (72) Name of Inventor: (1) Dr. Mohd. Rizwan Khan (2) Dr. Atif Iqbal (3) Dr. Shaikh Moinuddin (57) Abstract : A novel approach of obtaining volt per hertz control of a three-phase induction motor drive is documented in this proposal. The variable frequency transformer (VFT) is a device which is capable of producing variable voltage and variable frequency (VVVF) and is used effectively for constant V/f drive. The main component of VFT is a rotary transformer (slip-ring type three-phase induction motor) with three-phase windings on both stator and rotor. A dc motor drive system is mechanically coupled with the VFT, to adjust the rotational speed of the rotor with respect to stator, therefore controlling the magnitude of rotor winding voltage and frequency. Simulation and experimental results have been obtained to verify the concept of VFT based V/f control of a three-phase induction motor drive and reported. The advantages and shortcomings of the proposed approach are highlighted.

The present invention is about the development of charger free cellular phones. The basic concept is that there are number of Radio Frequency (RF) signals in the environment. Most importantly, in mobile context, the mobile tracking signal is almost available everywhere mobile network exist. When mobile is in idle state (not in talking state), even then it communicates with the nearest BTS through some RF signals to keep track of current location of the mobile set. The present invention (Cell Phone inbuilt Interface circuit) shall convert these RF
Aligarh Muslim University

signals into equivalent DC signal of requisite value, which shall be fed to the battery of cell phone to charge it. The RF signal strength is approximately of the order of 2mW. Each cell phone generally receives seven to eight RF signal of different strength for tracking purpose. In addition, there are plenty of RF signals (mostly around 900 MHz and 1800 MHz) available most of the time. The present invention is about utilization of these RF signals to charge batteries of mobiles and other handheld/portable electronic devices.

Detail five major Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) of the department.
Strengths: Amongst the first institutes in north India to start courses on downstream petroleum processing and petrochemicals. Dedicated staff: Faculty members are always willing to learn new methods/technologies and upgrade their skills Weakness: Acute shortage of technical and office staff leading to poor maintenance of laboratories, library, workshop and office records. Oppurtunities: The department is well suited to diversify into areas of upstream oil & gas engineering, and renewable energy. Starting short term courses for industry sponsored people. Challenges: Acceptance of the undergraduate degree program by the industry. Feedback by the alumni prompts students requesting to change/alter the name. This has also led to the consideration of the merger of the department to another department.
52 Future plans of the department
Starting new courses in the area of Oil & Gas Engineering, Polymer Science and Enginnering, etc. Also reserach activities in the area of Surface science and engineering, Shear thickening fluids, neural network modeling, biofuels and other

Detail five majorStrengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) of the department:
Strengths: 1. The Department of Biochemistry offers both
undergraduate (B.Sc.) and graduate (M.Sc.) degree programs relevant to the core of the basic biochemistry, biotechnology and biomedical science.
2. We have an enthusiastic Chair and Faculty with fairly diverse research interests, which the students
Aligarh Muslim University
Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports Page 601 of 690
are encouraged to explore. 3. The Department with its competent faculty
produces highly sought after undergraduate and graduate students. The faculty is engaged in doing research, relevant to international scientific issues, which is reflected in the research publications in peer reviewed international journals.
4. Students graduated from our department have gone on to pursue prestigious doctoral, postdoctoral or other research programs abroad and within the country.
5. The student friendly environment of the department and the availability of the teachers where student can interact with them at any time without any inhibitions.
Weaknesses: 1. Frequent power failure is very disturbing for the
researchers as well as for the undergraduate and graduate students to continue work in the laboratory. Even the generator back-up would not have been working all the time.
2. To do quality work we do not have the supportive infrastructure and instrumentation.
3. Red tapism consumes a lot of productive time and affects the work/research efficiency.
4. Shortage of supporting staff to manage animal house facility.
5. Absence of an independent/exclusive seminar library for the Department, fairly limits the library usage by undergraduate students.
Opportunities: 1. Updating subject knowledge. 2. Greater use of technology. 3. Developing research competency through various
training programmes. 4. Fostering research collaborations with scientists
working at institutions of advanced learning, both within the country and abroad.
Challenges: 1. To increase the research output of the Department
in terms of a greater number of high impact research publications in journals of repute.
2. To put greater emphasis on specialized disciplines such as neuroscience and cancer biology.
3. To organize meetings that may provide a platform for interaction between the international/national scientists and the research scholars on a more regular basis. This will immensely help students in their career development and shall be beneficial to the institution and the community at large.
54 Future plans of the department.
• Upgrading laboratory to facilitate research activities.
• Procurement of new instrument and equipment.

Opportunities (i) The Department is conducting
collaborative research with organisations such as Indian Institute of Remote Sensing and opening avenues for PG and research students
(ii) Opening new courses Challenges (i) To maintain high academic standards on
continuous basis (ii) Discipline is relatively young with vast
potential of work (iii) Job opportunities especially in teaching
profession are meager in the discipline since it is highly specialized
The faculty members have to put in extra efforts for students coming from rural areas and poor schooling background
