1. PREFACE

The Biyani Girls College (BGC), an exclusive girls, post graduate and

research institute, is one of the best women colleges in the state of

Rajasthan. It was the dream of a true educationist Late Shri Jugal Kishoreji

Biyani, to establish a women college, who had a vision to provide quality

education with women empowerment through technical education. It was his

strong belief that the educated women can only bring reforms and

improvements in the society. The vision was translated into reality by

establishing the Biyani Girls College by his eldest son, the enthusiastic

educationist-entrepreneur, Mr. Rajeev Biyani FCA. He had established the

college in one of the most progressive and developed locality of the city of

Jaipur where co-ed college would have been much more lucrative and

profitable. But due to his strong conviction about the importance of women

education that forced him to open college exclusively for women. Furthermore,

Rajasthan is still very backward educationally in terms of women literacy.

Despite 60 years after independence Rajasthan has the lowest women literacy

rate (52.66% against All India 65.46% as per 2011 census) even below Bihar

(53.33%) and still very much part of the so-called “BIMARU” states of the

country.

The Institutional vision is to create deep niche in defining the quality element

of higher education in India through an excellence of scholastic achievement

in the pursuit of education at the global level. Our ultimate goal is to recognize

the Institution‟s role as a pro active, innovative and flexible organization in

equipping students with top quality education and human values.

The mission of the Institution is to keep pace with the futuristic growing

civilized world through women empowerment. It intends to develop young

women who possesss knowledge and confidence to adjust to the fast changing

world of the competitive scenario without losing traces of our traditions

humanity, spirituality and propose of existence. The institution wants to

transform the hidden unlimited potentialities of girls into creativity,

empowerment and prosperity of the nation with humanity.

The College is being run very successfully under the collective leadership of the

three its very efficient, energetic, dynamic Executive, viz., Mr. Rajeev Biyani

FCA (Chairman), Prof (Dr) Sanjay Biyani (Director, Academics) and Prof. (Dr.)

Manish Biyani (Director, Research & Development).Thus catering to the needs

of the society in a comparatively educationally backward state of Rajasthan, the

college has proudly completed first decade of existence with students strength

of over 1350 and faculty strength of 71.

The College has the permanent affiliation with the University of Rajasthan,

Jaipur and it offers 07 UG & 10 PG Courses, M.Phil and Ph.D. programs,

besides 16 value added courses. The college is situated on a sprawling and lush

green campus of 1.1 acre or 4451.5 square meters and boarding National

Highway Number 11, the college has a cluster of beautiful and spacious

buildings with state of the art classrooms, science laboratories, computer

laboratory, central library, auditorium, and playgrounds.

The college secured the status of 2(f) of UGC Act in 2010 and 12(B) status is

under progress. A cautious effort is taken to involve all faculty members

including young generation in the preparation of this Self Study Report (SSR) to

ensure quality substances and enhancement to lead the college into the future.

Hathoj villages in Jaipur.

Criterion V: Student Support and Progression

The college has a well equipped campus located in the heart of Jaipur city.

Our results show that on an average above 90 percent of our students are

successful in examinations, out of which 75 percent get first division. Our

college is affiliated to the University of Rajasthan. The college has a website

10% of PG students enrolled into Ph.D programmes. In addition to various

games and sports activities the BGC girls have achieved the distinction of

playing table-soccer championship at national and international levels and

have consistently obtained gold medals last few years.

Criterion VI: Governance, Leadership and Management

The college has a clear vision of empowering women with technical

education. The ultimate goal is to recognize the institutions role as a pro-

active, innovative and flexible organization in equipping students with top

quality education and human values. The main aim behind establishing

exclusively Women College was to bring in necessary reforms and

improvements in the hitherto traditional and old and feudal customs ridden

society. And this change could be brought out only through women education.

Historically Rajasthan has been educationally very backward. Prior to the

merger of Rajasthan (1948) it was constituted by 21 princely states which gave

very little attention to develop educational facilities in their respective princely

state. Even after independce and during the entire period of 60 years of

planned development of the country Rajasthan continues to be most backward

state in terms of literacy and more so with female literacy which is shown

below in the following table.-

Literacy Rates in Selected States of India (Census 2011)

State Total Male Female

Bihar 63.8 73.5 53.3

Madhya Pradesh 70.6 80.5 60.0

Rajasthan 67.1 80.5 52.7

Uttar Pradesh 69.7 79.2 59.3

All India 74.04 82.14 65.46

In terms of socio-economic indicators these above four states were dubbed as

“BIMARU” states owing to their very low ranking in almost all socio-

economic parameters.

Teaching and learning process is controlled by various committees under the

directions of management. Besides the Internal Quality Assurance Cell

(IQAC) there is the number of committees to perform various functions

related to the college.

8

The participatory role of the management encourages the involvement of the

college staff, which is necessary for the efficient and effective running of the

College. The principal as the Head of the institution bears the ultimate

responsibility for the smooth running of the College. The role of the Principal

is multi-dimensional. Principal is responsible for both the academic and

administrative functioning of the College.

The Management actively takes part in the working of the institution. The

management plays the leading role in governance and management of the

institution. The management observes the day to day working of the college

administration, governance, management and academic activities. The

Management conducts meetings periodically and ensures the respective

policies taken for the best success of individual career program. Management

looks after the faculty requirements, infrastructure, financial expenditure and it

provides the funds for different developmental activities taking place in the

campus.

Adequate freedom is given to the Principal, HODs and Mentors to ensure that

they have powers to exercise in decision making at the same time are held

accountable to their decisions. Their participation in decision making is

ensures thereby promoting a culture of Participative Management.

Criterion VII: Innovations and Best Practices

Over the years the college has adopted a number of innovative practices the

particular of which are given in the detailed report. The popularity of the

college is indicated by the number of applicants for different courses that is

going up every year. The Institution has been pioneer in exploring and

developing the capabilities of the students, the research cell is one such

platform for transforming the potentialities of our students.

The best two practices which contribute to the achievement of the institutional

objectives and quality improvement of the core activities of the college are the

following; Personality development and moral education, Research and

Development-International collaboration. Value education is one of the

strongest pillars of the Biyani Group of Colleges. To show our gratitude and

faith in Maa Saraswati (Godess of Wisdom), we, at Biyani dedicate our efforts

in the form of Biyani Gaan, which is sung and music played alongwith every

morning before the start of the college in front of the beautiful Hanuman

Temple constructed within the premises of the college. The Gaan has imbibed

so well in the minds and hearts of every student and the faculty that reminds

our objectives and the responsibilities towards society and huminity.

7.3 Best Practices

7.3.1 Elaborate on any two best practices in the given format at page no. 98,

which have contributed to the achievement of the Institutional

Objectives and/or contributed to the Quality improvement of the core

activities of the college.

The following two best practices are given under the heading

presentation of best practice at Page no.

1. Personality Development and Moral Education

2. Research & Development- International Collaboration

1. Title of the Practice:

Personality Development & Moral Education:

The Institution focuses on value-base education with the aim of

developing holistically health attitude in our students. The Institution

not only believes in empowering youth with technology knowledge but

also developing their personalities in such a fashion that they can face

the challenges of the world. Moral education is as important as

academic education. Our students are enthused with positivity as

enthusiasm and Positive mind set play a vital road in making one

successful.

2. Goal:

The aim of the Institution is a qualitative overall development of the

students to prepare them for the competitive modern world.

3. The Context:

The Institution aims at empowering the youth to discover their

potential who possess knowledge and confidence to keep pace with the

rapidly changing world and increasing competition without losing

traces of our traditions, humanity, spirituality and the purpose of

184

existence. Education is the manifestation of divine perfection already

existence in human being. It is a process by which and individual

learns how to adapt himself to physical, social and spiritual

environment gradually in various ways. In this process, training

enables the individual to enhance their skills in their Endeavour and in

a sympathetic manner. The modern academic curriculum provides for

empowering students with latest technological and literary knowledge

but there is no mechanism or curriculum where a student can seek

guidance and approach towards moral and ethical pursuits. The present

environment of the educational institutions all over the country is not

very conducive to focus on moral based education it is difficult to

enthused students towards the ethical education. However our

institution has blended the academic curriculum with personality

development and moral education. In the holistic personality

development of the student it is not only important to impart him with

a latest technological equipments and instruments such as e-learning

but at the same time it is essential to inculcate moral values in the

students. It is in this endeavor that the BGC is emphasizing on moral

education along with modern academic education.

4. The Practice:

We at the BGC has developed a curriculum which is not only involved

the syllabi of various courses run by the college under the affiliation of

University of Rajasthan but has introduced some of the add-on courses

which are important for a student to have knowledge about such

courses. These add-on courses include Personality Enhancement

Program (PEP) and Industry Oriented Program (IOP). The PEP & IOP

are essential and integral part of the curriculum adopted at BGC. These

are conducted throughout the year for the overall enhancement of the

personality of the students. Eminent professionals and speakers as well

as Celebrities from Bollywood etc are invited to interact with the

students. The emphasis is laid on soft skills to improve the Professional

& Personal Competence of the students. The wide array and

assortments of topics chosen for PEP sessions ranging from developing

a positive attitude, table manners, Business etiquettes, Dressing Sense,

Interview Skills, Group discussions, Life Skills and presentation skills

etc. The Industrial Visits by the Students provide them an opportunity

of direct exposure to the work place, Shop floors and Assembly lines,

along with interactive sessions with industry personnels, helps in

clarification of many concepts, issues and doubts of students from all

streams.

Under the personality development programme the institution offers

certificate programs which is directly useful to the students to enhance

their interactual knowledge to improve soft skills and for effective

185

communication. Keeping pace with the knowledge based e-learning

system; the college provides training & certification in a wide

spectrum of competencies, helping students to acquire skills in various

areas.

The BGC has developed a India‟s #1 Education Web Portal

www.Gurukpo.com, which contains updated study material with expert

videos and universities question papers. It also has nearly 2000 plus

blogs developed by expert educationist and inter actual faculty

members. The college conducts an International level Certification

course in Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) which inculcate basic

computer skills in the students. Tally programme aims to bring

standardization in the pursuit of excellence in education stream. It is

software which develops skills in financial and accounting domain.

The BGC has unique distinction of imparting moral education among

the students. The enchanting of Gayatri Mantra throughout the day

long through the audio music system at the reception of the college

gives an impression of ethnicity to the visitors. The Morning Prayer in

front of Guru Hanuman Temple gives an impression of spirituality

among the students. The student oath also emphasis not only on

acquiring knowledge and skill but also adhere to the Principals of truth

and integrity. Thus it blends modernity with traditional values to

become a successful and devoted citizen, student & Individual. The

Books written by Director, Academics Prof. Sanjay Biyani viz., You

can Succeed (Part 1 & 2), How to Strengthen Mind through Positivity,

Why should I say Thank You and Love Feelings are everything are

some of the motivational books on inspirational and positive notion.

These books are conceptualized to make the student & faculty

members to adopt a positive and confident outlook towards life. The

college has started the concept of mentorship with the aim of

strengthening the inter personal relationship between students and

teachers. The mentor provides support, guidance and education to the

mentee during their difficult period, assistance during and new

experience and guidance for taking important decisions.

5. Evidence of Success:

The Add-on Courses with the regular academic courses are immensely

successful as every student is taking keen interest in these courses such

as PEP, IOP, MOS and Tally. The enrollment of students in these add-

on courses is rising year after year showing successfulness of the

programme. The books written by Prof. Sanjay Biyani on Moral

education and Positivity has been taken by the students and guardians

at hand. The students (mentees) have responded are dentally by

186

showing keen interest through regular participation in mentorship

classes and discussing their objectives, experiences and grievances.

6. Problems encountered and resources required:

In some of the cases the students refrain from attending morning

prayers. Some of the certification courses are need to be updated to

incorporate the latest technological advancement. The GuruKpo has

proved to be immensely successful however it needs huge amount of

financial resources which sometimes becomes a constraint in updating

and revising the courses of study.

7. Notes (Optional):

The BGC offers an extremely conducive atmosphere of learning

academic as well as moral education. The students have shown keen

interest in various value based education activities which can be

adopted by other educational institutions. It is highlighted that the

gurukpo educational web portal, which is available free of cost, should

be encouraged to be used by other educational Institutions of the

country.

1. Title of the Practice:

Research and Development: International Collaboration:

The Institution‟s motto is to foster a vision that makes students aware

of their potential impact on a global society and lead India to become a

leader in the global knowledge economy.

2. Goal:

The Institution aims at National, International tie-ups with prestige

Universities for fostering research work and providing a platform to

students for International learning & exposure.

3. The Context:

Biyani Group of Colleges provides an optimum environment for

students to do not just have academic aspirations, but also a scientific

reason. The world is changing rapidly and the scientist and Engineers

are people who will lead in the years to come. With this awareness, the

BGC has decided to deviate from the traditional education system and

encourage laboratory based practical research. It is that ultimate

objective of the Institution that the Institution together with students

187

can enhance the potential and help India to became a world leader in

science & technology.

We at BGC have thought that what should be done to ensure our future

demands like clean water, good nutrition, better medicine, affordable

health care services to enhance the quality of life on this earth. The

solution is “Technopreneurs” (an entrepreneur involved with high

technology) are critically important and indeed the real source of

power in today‟s knowledge-based economy. But, how engineering the

future of a student is processed? Traditional and conventional

university academic curriculums lack the teaching methods to turn

today‟s students into creative, innovative, visionary global leaders.

Therefore, it becomes essential to design an „interdisciplinary

curriculum‟ with an optimal mix of knowledge and professional skills

to transform the young minds and build a sustainable society.

Aiming at „Structuring of Knowledge‟, Biyani‟s take the initiative in

promoting structural reforms of wide academic areas based on

industry-academia collaborations and helping students to define and

shape their career in an increasingly competitive world. The Institution

aim at to educate and train future generations of scientists, engineers

and technologists through developing collaboration agreements with

leading universities and the private sector around the world.

4. The Practice:

The BGC has recently developed prestigious collaborative relationship

in research and development

With the University of Tokyo (Japan), Saitama University (Japan),

University of Manchester (UK),

Keio Business School (Japan), Akita Prefectural University (Japan),

Japan Advanced Institute of

Science & Technology (Japan); Lincoln University College, Malaysia

etc.

Apart from conducting collaborative research projects we have

student/faculty exchange program with Japan. Every year 5 students

from BGC are sent to various universities in Japan who are enrolled

there for their masters/Ph.D. Program. For last 5 years the institution

organizing Indo-Japan short internship exchange course program in

which students from Japan visit BGC and learn about curriculum ,

language, culture of this country.

The BGC has been organizing the India Japan bilateral conference-

BICON. The 9th

BICON was organized between Oct. 12 & 17, 2014.

188

In collaboration with Japan Advanced Institute of Science &

Technology.

5. Evidence of Success:

Since 2006 the BCG has been involved in organizing an annual

international conference known as BICON. In collaboration with

Japan Advanced Institute of Science & Technology (JAIST).

The 9th Biyani‟s International Conference (BICON-2014) was hosted

by the BGC on October 12-17, 2014, which encompassed of five

annual co-located symposiums, each specialized in their domains,

specific knowledge areas, comprising (i) Science and Engineering, (ii)

Information Technology (iii) Commerce and Management, (iv) Social

Sciences and (vi) Education. This 6-day event, consisted of total 12

plenary presentations (2 daily) by leading figures from their

specialized fields and total 15 technical sessions, containing 30 invited

talks and 30 young researchers talk selected from rigorously refereed

submitted papers. There were poster presentations, panel discussions

and commercial exhibits. As a special feature, this event served as a

platform for young students/scientists to have face-to-face interaction

and grasp future career opportunities for the distinctive institutes in

India (IITs, IIMs) and Japan (JAIST).

The BGC Summer Internship Programme (SIP) and Indo-Japanese

Student Exchange Programme are very popular and students who have

had the opportunity to visit Japan, through the BGC, have learnt a lot

enriched their personalities immensely. Every year the scientific fervor

is getting more intense, and our research scenario is progressing by

leaps and bounds. Under the students and faculty international

exchange programme, more than 40 students and 7 faculty members

from BGC visited Japan so far. Similarly, 5 students and more than 30

faculty members from Japan visited BGC. Under JENESYS

programme 5 students from BGC will visit Japan.

The BGC has recently organized India-Japan short Internship exchange

course program between February 15 & 21, 2015. In which 4 Japanese

students (3 male, 1 Female) and 1 faculty member participated.

The some of the ongoing collaborative research projects are as follows:

Cancer Project (University of Tokyo/University of Rajasthan);

Bioremediation Project (University of Tokyo/ Delhi University); GP-

Fungi Project (Saitama University/University of Rajasthan); Bio-ID

Project (Saitama University/SMS Medical College) etc.

189

6. Problems encountered and resources required:

There are some problems relating to academic curriculum as well as

administrative ones. Financial difficulties are the main hurdles in the

path of international collaborative research efforts. Majority of

intelligent students having research aptitude are not sufficiently

endowed with financial resources. Even the educational loan facility

offered by the commercial banks to such young budding students is not

free from red tapism, delays and corrupt practices. The Curriculum, as

developed and implemented by the affiliating University (i.e.,

University of Rajasthan), is not updated and lack latest syllabi. Such

curriculum only encourages bookish knowledge.

7. Notes (Optional):

The Biyani Girls College, Jaipur is perhaps only the affiliating Private

College in the State of Rajasthan which has an ambitious program of

International Collaboration with large number of Universities and

Research Institutions of Japan, U.K., U.S etc. as well as some of the

premier Institution of India in the field of Research & Development.

The BICON, an annual International Conference is the distinctive

feature of the college. Which needs to be replicated by other

Institutions. The college offers research opportunities to the students

who are willing to persue their research in different parts of the world.

The BGC organizes short internship exchange course program with

some universities of Japan.
