‘Punctuality, Credibility shall not be compromised’
Prof Andrabi interacts with departmental heads
During the interaction the Vice Chancellor emphasized on the need to bring a major shift in the existing teaching-learning pedagogy and mode of research so as to take the University to new heights of academic excellence.
Prof Andrabi said “There is a need for bringing innovative changes and the faculty has to rejuvenate its efforts if KU has to match international standards and benchmarks of quality teaching and research.”
He added “I am not making any claims that we will achieve those international standards overnight. But we have to put our heads together and if we provide the right kind of exposure and opportunities to our students and scholars and channelize our energy in proper direction I am sure that we will reach somewhere within next few years.”
Stressing on the need to expand and provide quality education Prof Andrabi said that accountability and punctuality will not be compromised at any cost and student- teacher evaluation mechanism will be strengthened more than ever before.
“As part of an interim arrangement the Directorate of Internal Quality Assurance (DIQA) will make surprise visits/inspections to various departments/centres/institutions and get feedback from the students and scholars about the quality of teaching. This will help in bringing more accountability till some permanent mechanism is put in place interms of student-teacher evaluation,” said Prof Andrabi.
The Vice Chancellor said that a review committee would be constituted in each department and faculty that would review the syllabus and curriculum after seeking the feedback from the students before the students are put to examination.
