Institutional preparedness for NEP

1. Multidisciplinary/interdisciplinary: Annamacharya College of Pharmacy has always

strived for a multidisciplinary approach in its
academic as well as co-curricular activities. Students
are encouraged to undergo minor/major projects in
the Multidisciplinary/ Interdisciplinary mode by
formulating teams from different courses. Students
are also encouraged to formulate teams from different
disciplines to participate in various events like
Hackathons etc. Currently, ANCP is in process of
revision of its curriculum for students admitted in the
year 2021-22 and onwards, in which provision will
be made to offer minor degrees in the fields other
than the parent discipline

2. Academic bank of credits (ABC): ANCP is a self financing private institution and it is
yet to register for NAD, through the affiliating
university is a member Of NAD and it stores ABC
related data of all students in NAD. ANCP has
International collaboration with Universities such as
Universitas Telkom, Indonesia and IMU Education
SDN BHD, Malaysia for international exposure and
knowledge exchange. Such international
collaborations will be explored once the Pharmacy
Education is liberalized under the NEP 2020.The
faculties of ANCP are totally at liberty to select their
own teaching pedagogy and all possible facilities
including ICT are made available to explore those
avenues. ANCP has recognized as research centre for
Ph.D scholars to promote R&D activities. The library
caters a wide gamut of text and reference books and
tertiary references for the faculty to choose from.
Online reading materials are provided to students,
DELNET e-content is available to all. There is,
however, less maneuvering options for changing the
curricular aspect being an affiliated college under
approval of the apex body (PCI). Though, it is
envisioned that in near future, as outcome of NEP
2020 this scenario is going to change. ANCP is
offering value added courses like Pharmacovigilance
and Drug Safety & Authentication and Traceability
of Medicinal actives from Naturals for student
knowledge enhancement. The ANCP faculties have
trained through SWAYAM / NPTEL certified
courses to provide quality education to the students.
ANCP has MoU with LSSDC to engage them in
more skill development activities. Already the CBCS
is implemented by the affiliating University; which is
a first step towards ABC system.

3. Skill development: Skill Development Courses help to perform a

particular activity in a very experienced manner.
Annamacharya College of pharmacy has introduced
various levels of courses on Skill Development. Wide
number of students acquires training in the Campus
Recruitment Training Programme, and in
Certification Courses Pharmacovigilance (PV) highly
adds up to the evaluation. Personality development
programs on master your mind -2019 for developing
leadership skills. Established Pharmacovigilence
center at ANCP by Pharmacovigilance Programme of
India (PvPI) - Indian Pharmacopoeia
Commission in Ghaziabad. Online and offline

Page 24/119 03-01-2023 12:25:02

 Self Study Report of ANNAMACHARYA COLLEGE OF PHARMACY

Conferences/Seminars/Workshops/Pharma Expos are

also useful to evaluate the leadership qualities and
organizational skills of students. To strengthen its
skill development capacity, a MoU with Life Science
Sector Skill Development Council (LSSSDC) has
already been signed and will be implemented soon,
initially for the final year UG students under the PCI
framework. Induction programs were conducted with
a special emphasis on UHV. Faculty actively
participated in AICTE UHV training certification
programs to enable them discharge their duties as
mentors in a better way. Programs on ethics, life
skills (such as Yoga and meditation) are regularly
conducted for holistic development of the students.
Faculty evaluates the practical work of students on
regular basis. All the students have gone through
hands on training on various equipments namely
freeze dryer, Probe sonicator, Microwave synthesizer,
Melting point apparatus, Rotary evaporator, BOD
Incubator, Auto Analyzer, Autoclave. Hands on
training has been provided to UG and PG students in
various softwares like swiss dock, X-Cology,
micromedex, Chemdraw, chemspider ,Way2drug. Wi-
fi enabled campus, ICT enabled classrooms, well-
equipped laboratories, rich library, computer lab,
animal house and staff rooms are an asset. The
institute organizes Conferences/
Seminars/Workshops and encourages them to attend
the same when organized by other institutes too.

4. Appropriate integration of Indian Knowledge Knowledge of India” will include knowledge from
system (teaching in Indian Language, culture, using ancient India and modern India, and a clear sense of
online course): India’s future aspirations with regard to education,
health, environment, etc. These elements will be
incorporated in an accurate and scientific and
included in Pharmacy, yoga and meditation. Every
year ANCP conducting International Yoga day and
inculcating the practice of Yoga and Meditation. The
preservation and promotion of India’s cultural wealth
must be considered a high priority for the country, as
it is truly important for the nation’s identity as well
as for its economy. Although the official language of
content delivery is English as per statutory
requirements, but practically, in order to percolate the
desired knowledge to the students coming from rural
and vernacular background, the faculty regularly
resorts to local languages (Telugu) as and when
required in an informal manner. This is useful to

Page 25/119 03-01-2023 12:25:02

 Self Study Report of ANNAMACHARYA COLLEGE OF PHARMACY

bring home the ultimate aim of putting the topics in

perspective. Faculty of ANCP association with JNT
University preparing e- content for the students who
came from rural areas Hopefully, with NEP 2020,
and country-wide impetus to write books in
vernacular languages, in future sufficient terminology
and academic resources will be available to officially
teach in mother tongue of the students. Classroom
delivery in bilingual mode is already being done and
no special training is as such required. However,
there is dearth of quality academic resources and
underdeveloped scientific terminology in the field of
Pharmacy at present. With simultaneous development
of such resources, it will become easier for the
faculty and students to implement bilingual content
delivery. Additionally, there has been a severe
scarcity of skilled language teachers in India, despite
various measures being taken. Language-teaching too
must be improved to be more experiential and to
focus on the ability to converse and interact in the
language and not just on the literature, vocabulary,
and grammar of the language. The staff of ANCP
practicing and teaching in interesting and conceptual
manner. The arts - besides strengthening cultural
identity, awareness, and uplifting societies - are well
known to enhance cognitive and creative abilities in
individuals and increase individual happiness. ANCP
conducting events like painting competitions to the
students to encourage the hidden talents in them.
Library of ANCP contains books of Ramayana,
Pedda Bala siksha and other vedic books and
encourage the students to read and develop Indian
Culture. The Faculty and scholars of ANCP doing
research on plants for understand the potential of
herbs and plants as embedded in our ancient
Ayurvedic system. ANCP college website will be
developed in near future with all the information
about the plants hosted in the Medicinal garden to be
linked to QR-codes. This will help the students
knowledge on herbs and plants We are focused to
develop online courses regarding Indian culture in
field of Pharmacy. This will help the students
knowledge on herbs and plants. We are focused to
develop online courses regarding Indian culture in
field of Pharmacy in future

5. Focus on Outcome based education (OBE): Annamacharya College of Pharmacy has already
adopted OBE as part of its effort to acquire

Page 26/119 03-01-2023 12:25:02

 Self Study Report of ANNAMACHARYA COLLEGE OF PHARMACY

accreditation from NBA and NAAC and to focus on

transformative learning. Using an OBE system, the
program and course outcomes are mapped, and after
each semester / year, the attainment on a scale of 1 to
3 is evaluated. It has enabled us to better understand
the curricular gaps, the need for topics beyond the
syllabus to be covered, and the need for remedial
teaching methods. The college has attempted to
bridge the gap of CO-PO attainments by organizing
talks, lectures, seminars, and conferences outside the
scope of its curriculum but relevant to the field of
Pharmacy. Besides analyzing CO gaps, it plans to
develop online materials for every course beyond
syllabus requirements. Research is integrated into the
curriculum, and students are encouraged to
participate in high-quality research. A good team of
experts at the college is capable of analyzing results
and calculating attainments in their own way. While
others calculate indirect attainments from surveys
among the stakeholders, the college uses concrete
outcomes such as placements, preferring higher
education, and clearing the all-India exams to
calculate its indirect attainments. Students, faculty,
and parents are invited to submit anonymous
feedback through an online mechanism. Employers'
and alumni's feedback is the only information
collected by name. By doing so, we can ascertain the
problem areas at mission/PEO level, PO/CO level or
at the level of daily academic/administrative
activities

6. Distance education/online education: The college management and administration

developed a sound strategic plan during the pandemic
(COVID-19) and began introducing online learning
in April 2020 using unique platforms including MS-
Teams, G-suite enabled classrooms, and Moodle as
the learning management system. The professors and
students were given the chance to enroll in courses
offered by the Coursera and LMS platforms (LMS
system (such as Google classrooms, Zoom platform,
Webinars, etc.) in 2020 and 2021 as a component of
online education. The college was prepared and
equipped to handle online and remote modes of
delivery, as well as online exams and evaluation, as
and when required. Swayam MOOC also helpful for
students to improve their academics strength.

We were able to identify our strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges as a
result of this SSR preparation, and we were able to create an action plan for the
foreseeable future. Each academic service's outcome and growth pace is noticeably
different. Better than the NAAC accreditation cycle's first cycle, improvised and obvious.
After successfully completing the first cycle of NAAC accreditation and continuously
improving, the institute applied for the second cycle with the hopes that the outcomes will
not only uphold the agreements (UGC, NAAC, and NBA) accreditations and moral ideals,
