Strength
The Post Graduate Department of Commerce has highly qualified faculty members with rich experience of research to their credit. Out of the 12 sanctioned posts 5 faculty members are PhD holders and the 2 faculty members are pursuing PhD. The department has submitted 1 major project and 2 minor projects to the UGC. Many faculty members have written text books in the field of their subject.
Weakness
Although many students use to approach the faculty members for pursuing PhD/MPhil but due to lack of permission from the Panjab University the department is unable to involve in the research activities.
Opportunities
The Department is planning to pursue the following job oriented courses so that the students will be absorbed in the job market well in time.
Diploma in Computer Based Accounting and Auditing.
Diploma in Office Automation and Practices.
PG Diploma in Event Management.
PG Diploma in Retail Management.
PG Diploma in Tourism Management.
Challenges
The Government colleges in Chandigarh affiliated to Panjab University are suppose to run traditional courses only like B.Com, whereas some Universities are providing specialization in B.Com like in Taxation, Applied Economics, Foreign Trade Practice & Sales Management, Tourism & Travel Management, Banking & Finance. Therefore many students interested in other job oriented courses don’t join our college and in future this ratio may increase.
Future Plan of the Department
The Post Graduate Department of Commerce, P.G. Govt. College Sector 46 Chandigarh is a pioneering department in the field of Post Graduate course. It is the only Govt. College in the Chandigarh offering Master of Commerce since 2000.The major focus area of department of commerce is the development of entrepreneurial, managerial, communication, finance and accounts skills of the students to prepare them as per industry requirements.
The Department has planning to establish Research Centre of the commerce department. Presently there are five PhD faculty members. The process for establishment of Research Centre with Panjab University has already been initiated. This will provide a vast scope for research related courses like M.phil, Ph.D, Faculty Development Programme etc in the department. It will help to promote research activities in the department which will add value to both the graduate and post graduate students and faculties as well.
The Post Graduate Department of Commerce wishes to start MBA under Twinning Program. Twinning educational programme is a unique and creative concept in education. It provides an opportunity and access to students for studies abroad. The students can complete a part of the course in the college in India and complete the remaining semesters of their studies at the designated foreign university. The department is working on the viability of the MBA program by which the students can specialize in areas of Management in an international environment as part of an international community without incurring very high costs. This international exposure will help the students to get well placed in the highly competitive global economy.
We are already motivating the students to join professional courses and many students have already completed professional courses like CA/ICWAI/CS and are well placed in the market. The department has plan to establish collaboration with some professional bodies offering courses in the field of finance and accounts so that students can join these course in college itself.
