Institutional preparedness for NEP

1. Multidisciplinary/interdisciplinary: The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020

highlights on imparting 21st century education skills
to individuals in order to support their holistic
development. The social, physical, emotional and
moral improvement of the occupied individual shall
be promoted in a multidisciplinary education. All of
the professional, vocational, and technical
programmes will systematically execute this type of
comprehensive education. The Gokhale Education
Society was established on February 19, 1918, on the
third death anniversary of Namdar Gopal Krishna
Gokhale, by his distinguished student, late Principal
T. A. Kulkarni, a notable social worker. Society
recently celebrated 100 years of meaningful existence

and currently has more than 140 units distributed
across three zones: Mumbai, Nashik, and Thane-
Palghar, offering various professional and non-
professional programme viz. (Engineering,
Management, Arts, commerce and Science, Hotel
Management, Law, Nursing and physiotherapy etc.)
serving 1.25 lakh students. Our institute is affiliated
to Savitribai Phule Pune University, is unable to
provide flexible and innovative curriculum that
involve credit-based courses and projects in the areas
of community engagement and service, ecological
education and value-based learning in order to meet
NEP expectations for a holistic and multidisciplinary
education. We nevertheless employ an
interdisciplinary approach to teaching and learning
without this. The four main departments of
Pharmaceutics, Pharmaceutical Chemistry,
Pharmacology, and Pharmacognosy are encouraged
to collaborate on research projects that cross many
disciplines, and interdisciplinary work is now a
normal practice at the institute. We are engaged in
interdisciplinary research projects in the areas of
pharmaceutical technology, nanotechnology,
synthetic and natural compounds, computer-aided
drug design (CADD), pharmaceutical analysis,
pharmacological studies using stem cell-based
sources, and regenerative healthcare. Integrate social
responsibility, local community participation, and
services given by staff and students through work,
environmental education, and value-based education
through NSS. This will provide us with many
opportunities and a great opportunity to put the
multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary components of
NEP 2020 into action. Furthermore, a task force has
been formed to investigate the administrative, legal,
and regulatory facets of the proposal. This is the first
step towards putting it into practise. Additionally, the
provision for multiple entry and exit will be put into
effect as soon as the ministry of education and the
UGC give the relevant regulations and rules. We are
confident that, with the support of management and
other related institutes, we will be able to contribute
to the implementation of NEP 2020's

students' respective class professors will both offer
support to the students in this regard. The institute
must follow any further important instructions or
directives that are communicated to it by appropriate
authorities. Our programmes are regulated by PCI
and AICTE, therefore credit transfers and dual
degree/twinning programmes are not permitted.
However, the institution is willing to start such
programmes with Statutory Regulatory Authorities

formation where faculty members who are members
of the BOS and Academic Council modify the
curriculum, add new courses and even produce
books.

industry during interviews. Before each interview,

system (teaching in Indian Language, culture, using education, health and the environment, the institute is

Page 19/86 31-07-2023 12:35:17

 Self Study Report of GOKHALE EDUCATION SOCIETY'S SIR DR. M. S. GOSAVI COLLEGE OF
PHARMACEUTICAL EDUCATION AND RESEARCH, NASHIK
online course): adhering to Indian culture and tradition while
imparting advanced technological education and
integrating knowledge from ancient to advanced
India. Since the institute is governed by
PCI/AICTE/SPPU regulations and their curriculum,
all pharmacy programmes must abide by the use of
the English language as a communication and course-
conducting medium. Therefore, even though classes
are taught in English, teachers sometimes request by
students to clarify course material in their regional or
national language. Therefore, teachers do their best to
explain course material in national, regional, and
native languages. On the other hand, the college
celebrates significant days like Marathi Bhasha Divas
to promote understanding of the national and regional
languages of India as well as the cultures associated
with each of those languages. The college's annual
cultural event known as "Spectrum" includes a
variety of Indian dance, plays, and musical
performances. Our institute encourages and supports
research and study in the domains of Ayurveda,
Herbal Medicines, and Nutraceuticals because
pharmacy strives to discover new chemical entities,
molecules from the natural resources and are in great
demand. The institute therefore makes every effort to
disseminate this information and integrate the Indian
information system into its operational culture. The
institute accelerated its teaching and learning efforts
online utilising a variety of platforms during the
COVID-19 epidemic. The institute is dedicated to
producing competent pharmacists and excellent,
responsible Indian citizens.

5. Focus on Outcome based education (OBE): The institution offers one UG and two PG
programmes. All of these programmes activities and
curriculum focus around outcome-based learning.
After completing their programme of study, students
will possess particular knowledge and skills that will
lead to specific outcomes. The outcome-based
education a paradigm established by
SPPU/AICTE/PCI has been adopted by our institute.
The POs, COs, PSOS, and their accomplishment
have been determined in accordance with the
standards set out by the All India Council for
Technical Education and the National Board of
Accreditation. The MSGCOPER places a strong
emphasis on three things: a) theoretical
understanding that integrates the reasons why actions

Page 20/86 31-07-2023 12:35:17

 Self Study Report of GOKHALE EDUCATION SOCIETY'S SIR DR. M. S. GOSAVI COLLEGE OF
PHARMACEUTICAL EDUCATION AND RESEARCH, NASHIK
are taken or decisions are made; b) practicality to
highlight how to do things and c) self-reflection to
promote the how to effectively utilise knowledge. All
of these programmes are made to support students in
depicting their learning and achievements in terms of
understanding, skills, perspectives, and values. The
effectiveness of a student's educational experience is
largely determined through exams and other methods
of student evaluation. In addition to assessing the
students' accomplishments (and grades), they must
also judge whether the set goals for learning have
been achieved. To prove that the goals and outcomes
of the work have been attained, it is essential to
demonstrate that reliable and accurate evaluations
were carried out. The following evaluation reforms
were implemented: a) Designing a question paper
that incorporates the revised Bloom's six levels of
cognitive domain abilities b) Measuring the
achievement of course and programme outcomes and
mapping them. Overall, the institute's teaching-
learning methodology was developed with the goals
and philosophy of outcome-based education in
consideration. MSGCOPER offers a variety of
opportunities for hands-on learning, such as
practicals, internships, projects, industry visits, etc.,
that motivate students to focus on research,
innovation, and integrating ideas for the benefit of
society. Apart from domain-specific knowledge,
learning outcomes at all levels highlight social
responsibility, ethics, and entrepreneurship so that
students can actively contribute to the country's or
society's economic, environmental and social well-
being.

6. Distance education/online education: Since its beginning, MSGCOPER has promoted for
the use of ICT-enabled tools in the teaching and
learning process, as NEP also recommends. As a
result, the majority of the classrooms are equipped
with ICT, including wireless networking and
overhead projectors. Physical classes were not
offered during COVID-19, therefore positive
adjustments were made by our professors and
students during the lockdown and they continued
their academic work through online classes. The
following programs/approaches were used to deliver
online education. For academic and practical classes,
multiple ZOOM PRO systems were subscribed,
allowing for uninterrupted sessions. Faculty members

frequently shared various learning resources,
including articles, pre-recorded videos, YouTube
links, assignments, etc. in the relevant Google
Classroom and students are responding very well to
these online tools. The teachers and students used
platforms like MOOCs, SWAYAM, NPTEL, etc. to
complete online courses and enhance their knowledge
on a variety of subjects and scientific topics of
interest. Student communication and comprehension
were improved with WhatsApp groups. By planning
Webinars/Workshops with experts from both
academia and business using the ZOOM and Google
Meet platforms, additional content beyond the course
material and recent advances were provided. The
institute has all the tools necessary for providing
online teaching and learning opportunities. These
resources include digital tools, LAN and Wi-Fi
internet connectivity, desktops, laptops, projectors
and a learning management system of the institution.
The faculty members regularly and effectively use a
variety of digital tools and apps for online and
blended learning. Due to the aforementioned
resources and methods, our institution is prepared to
adopt NEP2020's Digital Education Policy.

2.5 Evaluation Process and Reforms

2.5.1 Mechanism of internal/ external assessment is transparent and the grievance redressal system
is time- bound and efficient

Response:

The assessment is an important step in calculating learning outcome of students. Assessment is

done in two ways i.e., internal, and external examination. The revaluation and/or rechecking is done
by the University efficiently and within the stipulated time to redress the student’s grievances.

Various tools are adopted for assessment as mentioned below:

External Assessment: The examination cell is involved in dealing with examination related
grievances. End semester examination is conducted by the university. If the students indulge in any
kind of malpractices during exams severe action is taken against them by the exam cell after
discussing the matter with the External Senior Supervisor, Chief Exam Officer; Principal.

To maintain transparency External senior supervisor; External Squad appointed by university and
exam cell help them to perform their duty. During, the conduct of examinations, if questions appear
from “out of syllabus” or if any error in the question paper is detected, students inform their
grievance to the subject teacher and it is communicated to the Controller of Examinations through
QPD online mode. University has developed grievance redressal system in the examination section
for timely and efficient resolution of grievances and it is administered by College Examination
Officer (CEO) at institute level. After the declaration of university results, if students have
grievances, then students can apply for photocopy and revaluation and/or rechecking of the answer
book through examination section of the institute. The University schedule of application for
photocopy and revaluation is informed by examination section to the students after the declaration
of university examination results. Subject teachers assist the students in evaluating the photocopy
of answer books received from SPPU.

PHARMACEUTICAL EDUCATION AND RESEARCH, NASHIK

Internal Assessment: The internal assessment process is carried out transparently for that the Chief
Examination Officer (CEO) and Internal Exam in-charge have been assigned to coordinate and
communicate the examination activities. The Examination process is well defined and communicated to
students well in advance during orientation program by exam department and respective faculty also. The
schedule of session exams is included in academic calendar and communicated to student at the time of
commencement of semester. It is mandatory for faculty to set two- 02 different question papers for every
individual subject, based on CO/PO/PSO/PEO’s using Bloom’s taxonomy. Out of the two, one is
randomly selected by the exam department. The whole process is confidential. For maintaining
transparency Block supervisors, Internal Squads, and rotating seating arrangement is implemented. After
evaluation, the answer sheets are shown to the students and marks are confirmed with their signature.

If any grievances in evaluation or totaling are raised by the students, they are resolved by the subject
teacher. Students who fail in external SPPU examination get a chance to appear for an improvement exam
to enhance their internal score. The final marks scored by students in the internal sessional examination;
continuous assessment is entered in mother register; confirmed by students with their signature. The same
marks are uploaded on SPPU online portal. Thus, making the evaluation process robust and transparent.

2.6 Student Performance and Learning Outcomes

2.6.1 Programme Outcomes (POs) and Course Outcomes (COs) for all Programmes offered by the

Page 36/86 31-07-2023 12:35:18

 Self Study Report of GOKHALE EDUCATION SOCIETY'S SIR DR. M. S. GOSAVI COLLEGE OF

institution are stated and displayed on website

Response:

Based on the course objectives specified in University Syllabus (which is been adapted from Pharmacy
Council of India w.e.f. academic year 2018-19 and 2019-20 as 2018 Pattern and 2019 Pattern), the course
outcomes of all courses are drawn by course in-charge for B. Pharm and M. Pharm Program.

The course outcomes are prepared for each course (each subject) after giving due consideration to the
syllabus prescribed by the SPPU, Pune. The syllabus prescribes learning objectives; from this each course
in-charge attempts to formulate the course outcomes. These are drafted in the light of the Mission
Statement of the college. PSOs/PEOs are decided and finalized in 1st Academic Advisory Committee
Meeting of every academic year or may be cross-checked by the head of the department or senior faculty
member of the department. The department offering the respective programme develops the Programme
Outcomes (POs), Programme Specific Outcomes (PSOs), and Course Outcomes (COs) in strict accordance
with the goals of Outcome Based Education (OBE) following extensive efforts by faculty considering
current aspects in pharmaceutical industry.

After reaching a consensus, the ideas are extensively disseminated and made public via the numerous
channels of presentation and/or communication listed below:

Website,
Notice boards,
Induction program,
Laboratory manuals,
Question papers,
Official e-mail communication.

Program-Specific Outcomes (PSOs): PSOs are the precise competencies and achievements that students
are expected to have attained at the program conclusion. In collaboration with the course coordinators, the
program coordinators create the PSOs, which are typically two to four in number. After receiving approval
from the Principal, a panel of experts including heads of the department and subject matter experts from
each department, discuss and decide on the matter.

Programme Outcomes (POs): POs are general statements that explain the professional achievements that
the programme wants to achieve and that the students are expected to have reached by the time the
programme is over. POs include a variety of interlinked knowledge, skills, and personality attributes that
students must develop in order to graduate.

Course outcomes (COs): COs are simple declarations of the fundamental and enduring discipline
knowledge, the skills that students should be able to perform, and the level of learning that is anticipated
upon course completion. They are communicated and specified explicitly. The course coordinator creates
the course outcomes after consulting with concerned instructors who teach the same course.

The POs, PSOs and COs are made available online at the institutional webpage, which may be found at
https://msgpharma.org. The promotion of awareness of POs, PSOs, and COs is deliberate in all interactions
with the students.

2.6.2 Attainment of POs and COs are evaluated. Explain with evidence in a maximum of 500 words

Response:

Course outcomes are prepared after considering the syllabus and verified by the Head of Department and
approved by the Head of the Institute. Internal continuous assessment questions are mapped to COs,
PEOs/PSOs and POs. The course in-charge drafts CO-PO matrices, which are verified by the Head of
Department and approved by the Head of the Institute. Theoretical values for a theory and practical course
are obtained by specifying the course outcomes separately. PO 1 has high attainable value.

Correlation between external and internal exam scores is used to determine course outcome attainment.

Course outcomes and evaluation criteria are mapped to program outcomes to measure how well the
program outcomes are achieved. CO-PO; PSO mapping is done by the Course in-charge and evaluated by
head of the department. This is usually done in consultation with other senior faculty members who taught
the same course earlier.

Methods of measuring the level of CO attainment:

The students are evaluated through Internal and External examinations.

The level of attainment of COs for both Internal and External examination is set for all courses on the scale
of 1 to 3.

The questions asked in the internal/ continuous assessments are mapped with COs and POs of a particular
subject.

The marks obtained by each student in CIE and sessional examination, of every course is mapped on the
scale of 0 to 03 and Report is prepared and submitted to exam section by the faculty members.

The final course outcome attainment is calculated by making correlation between attainment through
External exam and internal examination based on their respective weightage as per pattern.

Methods of measuring the level of PO attainment: The attainment of POs is measured by

Assessment process:

The assessment tools are direct and indirect methods for evaluating the attainment of POs.

Direct methods: Session examinations and internal assessment are conducted to focus on POs. Question
papers are framed based on POs, and assignments are given for extension of syllabus. POs are categorized
as professional core, basic subjects, and course outcomes are translated to POs. Data is gathered and POs

are highlighted.

Indirect methods: Surveys are conducted at two levels: alumni and exit survey. Frequency of carrying out
the process: Once in year The POs are obtained from course outcomes, which comprise several tools,
semester end examination practical, MCQs, assignments, seminars etc., each one is uniquely suited to
determine POs. The evaluation is summative as well as formative (experience and appreciation, MCQs).
