ATTENTION TO WEAK STUDENTS :

Generally, most of the students, admitted in our college are weak in merits. Students of better results in H.S.L.C. & AHSEC exams go outside for studying science, commerce and other professional courses. Exceptionally sometimes in some academic session, we get some meritorious students. We, therefore, pay sincere attention to the weaker students of the department. The areas in which we pay attentions are-

1. Supplyall the necessary booksto them for the whole of the session from the departmental library.
2. Regular personal connection outside class room is also made.
3. Special coaching is also provided to the subject as when needed.

SWOC :

Strength	Good faculty
Weakness	Financially poor students
Opportunities	To open PG Course
Constraints	Lack of well-equipped library
Future Plan	Toorganize Lecture Programme, National level Seminar & Workshop etc.

To increase the no. of books of departmental library.

To Serve at Feeder schools by taking classes so that brilliant students are enrolled in Economics department of the college.
