Institutional Strength:
- The College provides free education to all the students of Sikkim, under the initiative of the Higher Education Department, Government of Sikkim, which supports students of rural areas to pursue education.
- The College is located in a pollution-free environment and covers a large area with a greater potential to make it the most beautiful green campus in our state.
- The teacher-student ratio is balanced by which students get individual attention from the faculties. An added benefit is that the faculties are young, energetic and committed to their profession.
- It is the only College in Sikkim which provides various subjects like psychology and statistics in combination with mathematics and computer science.
- The College organises different co-curricular activities at a regular interval and also organises different study tour for the students along with the governmental provision of a yearly tour to students scoring high percentages.
- The College has a NIELIT hub, which provides free computer courses to SC/ST students and very nominal fees for other students every year.
- The College has a well-equipped CCTV monitoring system for the safety and security of the students and the college.
- The College has a Wi-Fi enabled campus and the institution keeps on updating it as per the requirements.
- The College has formed different committees and cells like Literary, Eco Club, Culture, Yoga, Sports, Mountaineering, and Photography etc., to encourage and involve the students in various activities outside the academic space and to cater to their abilities.
Institutional Weakness:
- The College offers 15 different subjects but the number of classrooms is a major constraint to accommodate the students.
- The enrollment in the College is increasing year after year however, the enrollment is still less as per the allotted numbers, because of the rural set-up.
- The library has a very small number of reputed journals, reference books and updated software, which has constrained the maximum utilization of e-resources.
- Since the infrastructure is not completed as per the layout, it lacks some of the basic infrastructure like an auditorium, cafeteria, hostels for boys etc, which is a hindrance to the development of the College.
Institutional Opportunity:
- Since the College is under the RUSA scheme, vocational subjects can be introduced for career opportunities in Tourism, Hospitality Management, Horticulture, and Floriculture as the rural set-up of the College keeps these avenues open.
- The College can introduce pure science subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, Botany, and Zoology, along with Cultural Studies, Area Studies, Physical Education as well as Art and Music.
- PG courses can be introduced in some subjects which have higher enrollment as most of the faculties are eligible.
- Since the College has a large area, different innovative practices can be initiated with the help of the Skill India initiative involving the students, which can generate revenue for the College and students may take it up as a career option.
Institutional Challenge:
- The College should be given greater autonomy for the utilization of resources for the development of the College under RUSA.
- Due to the centralized admission system, the College is compelled to enroll students having low percentages, which is a major challenge for the faculties to motivate the students to excel in their studies.
- Due to the rural set-up of the College, the faculties as well as students get fewer opportunities to participate in mainstream programs outside the state.
- The College requires a greater autonomy to send the teaching fraternity to attend various courses.
