QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM [QIP]

The Government of India launched the quality improvement program in 1970. One of the many objectives of the program is to upgrade the expertise and capabilities of the faculty members of the degree level institutions in the country. In QIP, only sponsored teachers are eligible for admission to both Master’s and Doctoral degree programs, with an aim to enable teachers to acquire Master’s / Doctoral degrees and imbibe in them a culture of research and better teaching educational capabilities by exposing them to the environment of the institutes of study

There are three main activities under QIP serving the faculty of degree level institutions:

  • Providing opportunities to faculty members to improve their qualification by offering admissions to Master’s and PhD degree programs
  • Organizing short term courses for serving teachers
  • Curriculum development [CD] cell activities which help to improve classroom teaching and learning

必威体育betway888 College of Pharmaceutical Sciences is one such QIP nodal cell, among ten pharmacy institutes across the country which started in 2005. A total of six faculty members from various parts of the country have successfully completed their MPharm through QIP. Similarly, with this scheme, twelve of them received their PhD degrees.
