Feedback to the Vice-Chancellor, NBU
The Vice-Chancellor,
NBU.
Sub.: Seminar organized by the NBU Alumni Association on 21.8.11 in commemoration of the Goden Jubilee Year of NBU.
Sir,
With reference to the above, I am to inform you of the following observations were made by the alumni of NBU who were present in the Seminar entitled "Performance of NBU during the past 50 years : A Review”.
1. The participants were unanimous that NBU has made outstanding progress in the areas of academic, research, extension and social outreach activities since its inception in May, 1962 in spite of acute constraints of resources and the disadvantages of location in a remote backward region. The contribution of NBU is not limited to its territorial jurisdiction only but is distributed all across the country and abroad depending on presence of its alumni. In respect of North Bengal, NBU has contributed immensely to grooming the youth to skilled resources who have been the largest factor in realizing economic growth in North Bengal in primary/secondary/tertiary education, service sectors, agriculture, small scale industry, trade, business etc. and its over-all socio-cultural strength. The vision and leadership of the present Vice-Chancellor for rapid development of NBU and weed out instances of corruption were also deeply appreciated by all.
2. Observations :
(i) Training Centre for Administrative Services ( IAS, IFS, IRS, IPS etc. and WBCS ) should be established.
(ii) Need- based courses like M.Ed., M.A. in Education, M.A. in Sanskrit/Tourism/Museology, M.Sc. in Forestry& Wild Life/Sericulture/Environmental Science should be introduced.
(iii) Short-term courses in Disaster Management, Earthquake Studies, Local Languages & Folk Culture, Studies in Regional History and Studies in Regional Development should be introduced.
(iv) Honours Courses should be introduced in selected affiliated colleges in Anthropology, Hindi and Environmental Science.
(v) M.Tech. courses should be introduced in NBU Campus.
3. NBU Alumni Association proposes to hold one more Seminar to draft a VISION DOCUMENT for NBU for next 20 years.
4. NBU Alumni Association proposes to prepare an e- repository of Alumni Database since 1962.
Yours faithfully,
Dr.T.K.Chatterjee
Secretary
