Briefly highlight the
contributions of the
department in generating new
knowledge, basic or applied.
A novel process to produce biopesticides based
on fungi and bacteria has been invented and
patented
Low concentrations of SO2, O3, NH3, coal
smoke, acidic rain and heavy metals did not
affect plants, but predisposed them to greater
pathogenic damage.
Elevated levels of CO2 (400-500 ppm) can
promote plant diseases.
Soil application of fly ash can significantly
improve plant productivity and a dose of soil
application of 3-4 q ash/ha has been
recommended for cultivation of pulse and
ornamental crops.

flourescens can control root-knot, root-rot, wilt
and fungus-nematode disease complexes of
vegetables, pulses and ornamentals.
A low-cost process to produce microbial
formulations of biocontrol fungi and bacteria
has been invented and biopesrticides have been
developed.

List the teaching methods adopted by the
faculty for different programmes.
Few years back two new papers were
introduced at PG level, namely:
“TRANSLATION” for M.A. 1
st
semester
and another namely “Terminologies and
Specialized Translation (I.T. terms,
editorials, advertisements, Drafting
application, official letters, Press reports
etc. in Arabic)” for M.A. IVth semester.
The new practice introduced is that the
students are divided in groups of five or
six, each group having one or two
comparatively good at translation, and
others medium and low. A leader in each
group is appointed from amongst the
group members who is responsible for the
performance of the whole group. Task is
given to discuss it among their group
members and try it themselves first. The
teacher concerned keeps taking round
over the groups, discuss their problem
and give them hints and suggestions,
encourage them and finally in the next
round check their attempted translation
sitting among all the group members
pointing to their mistakes if any. This
method has given very good results.
* During the last four years some 60 lectures were delivered by the following subject experts:
* Almost all the staff members of the Department delivered lectures enriching the researchers
and students in the Arabic Society during this period.
* Staff members also acted as resource persons in Refresher/Orientation Programmes of
Academic Staff College, A. M. U., Aligarh
* Apart from that two national seminars fwere also held by the department.

Detail five major Strengths, Weaknesses,
Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) of the
department.

Strength:
Efficient faculty
SAvailability of the latest state of the Art Foreign Language teaching technology
in the Department.
Very rich library
Identification of the Department as CAS by UGC
Access to Internet facility for students and Research scholars
Weakness:
Lack of funds to meet envisaged infra and supra structural initiatives.
Instead of being two separate independent full-fledged UG & PG courses, one in
purely Modern Arabic Language including functional aspects of the language
which is the need of the hour, and another in purely literary stream covering all
major aspects of Literature having a very wide range, the present courses syllabi are
badly amalgamated as it cover all these subjects in one set of courses, making it
really unmanageable.
Shortage of rooms for teachers
Non existence of a Research Division for Research Scholars
Lack of Technical Staff in the Language Lab and the Library
Opportunity:
Ample opportunities to meet the needs of academia and employment worldwide.
Getting the department a permanent status of Centre For Advance Studies
Globalizing the services of the University through Arabic language
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 270 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
Continuation of collective team effort of the staff members
Services of visiting faculties from Al Azhar and other institutions of the Arab
world.
Challenge:
Dealing the crisis of availability of feeders for UG and PG levels.
To enable the Department rank among the top ten globally
Making the department globally attractive for students by making it more and
more job oriented.
Making the department globally attractive for research.
Making Arabic as one of the popular options of higher studies
52
Future plans of the department.
Introducing two separate independent full-fledged UG & PG courses, one in purely
Modern Arabic Language including communicative and functional aspects of the
language which is the need of the hour, and another in purely literary stream
covering all major aspects of Literature having a very wide range.
Introducing latest instructional technology
Increasing the environment of team workability

52
Detail five major Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities
and Challenges (SWOC) of the department.

One of the strengths of the Department is that it is one of the few institutions in the
country which offers English Literature along with ELT at Undergraduate, Post
Graduate and Research Levels.
The Department is one of the oldest in India (established in 1877) and has been able to
sustain with the changing times and trends but now there is a major challenge of
de-colonizing the syllabi.
The Department has no Interdisciplinary Courses or collaboration with other
Department or University.
Lack of Adequate Infrastructure in keeping with the growing needs of technology and
increased number of intake of the students.
Differently-abled students do not have adequate support system (academic as well as
infrastructural) which may facilitate their exposure to the University resources at
par with other students.
53 Future plans of the department.

Smart Classrooms
More equipped labs and high speed internet facility to each and every student.
Separate sitting area for the research scholars.
Facilitating workshops for the students as well for different skills and specializations.
Introducing short term and full term specialized Courses at PG and Doctorate Levels.
Feedback procuring system from students as well as from teachers.

Aligarh Muslim University
Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports Page 299 of 690
adopted by the faculty for
different programmes.
Dr. Zeba Hasan:
Theory: lecture, Power- Point presentation, Class room discussion, test, assignments etc.
Practical: The art practices involve student’s own talent, observation, knowledge etc.
The role of a teacher is to bring out the talent/abilities of students and to guide
them towards producing mature and confident art- works which is achieved
through discussions, demonstrations, guiding students in preparing lay-
outs/sketches and also advising them to consult master’s art- pursuits etc.
The hypothetical approach of the subject is to encourage students for imagination
and creativity.
Dr. Rehana Khusro:
Fine Art’s subjects demand the perfection & skills with different techniques
according to the demand of different streams. The teacher always take those areas
where the student is weak and I always tries to make things easy to understand and
for the knowledge for the students like discussions, tutorials, demonstrations,
preparing lay- outs and let them to imagine about the topic and therefore they can
produce unique piece of art as well as theory of related practical of different art
forms.
Dr. Waseem Mushtaq:
Since Fine Arts is essentially a practice based course (with an approximate ratio of
70% practical and 30% theory) my emphasis as a teacher has been to see theory
(interpretation) as an offshoot of art-practice and usually not the other way round.
The main thrust of my pedagogic approach is to encourage my students to think and
imagine visually.
Dr. Hena Fatima Moinee:
Theory: Lectures, presentation and discussions are given in the class. Slid shows are
taken as help.
Practical: Since it is a practical based subject and classes are taken both outdoor and
indoor, the lectures and demonstrations are planned accordingly. For this help is
taken from multimedia, documentaries, internet support etc. Further teaching aids
are also adopted to make the class interesting for the taught. Besides this the students
are always encouraged to take up projects that help in enhance new and innovative
ideas.
Abdur Rahman:
A course of study based on studio and practice is merely relevant with other courses,
and being as a teacher I follow certain ‘set induction theory’ to motivate and
promote pupils to develop their skills and wild imaginations. I normally organize
classes properly for undergraduate level to maintain the discipline first and then get
introduce the topic little interpretive and analytic perspective adding with visuals,
slides and most recent references ease to understand the approach and quite
provocative to get a healthy feedback. Usually, I do change the method often to
maintain the healthy class environment to make interesting and for better
understanding so, Blooms Taxonomy is not bad.
Dr. Bushra Naseem:
Theory: Lectures, presentation, discussions, and slid show.
Practical: Fine Arts is a practical based subject. We have outdoor and indoor classes.
The nature of every paper demands particular demonstrations, which are given
accordingly. For this help is taken from multimedia, documentary films, short films
etc. All the necessary teaching aids are adopted to make the class interesting.
Students are always encouraged to take up projects that helps in enhancing new
ideas and innovative techniques for better and more productive results.
Mr. Mohammad Danish:
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 300 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
As an Applied art teacher my concern is to develop the vision of students by
introducing them to new media, but not ignoring the traditional mediums and
encourage them to develop their own observation as every student is different in
nature. I emphasize on demonstrating different ideas after setting a project of work
for the students.

Briefly highlight the
contributions of the
department in generating new
knowledge, basic or applied.
The Department is continuously revising the course
structure in order to make it up to date and at
par with some of the promising institutions of
visual arts. Curriculum of PG course is given
considerable attention which has been
effectively running since the last four semesters.
While designing the curriculum we had the
opportunity to introduce some of the most
radically innovative subjects e.g. Installation,
Photo- Collage, Video-art etc. which have
proven quite successful in creating a meaningful
nexus between the confines of a studio practice
and the contemporary world art practice out
there in the metros.
The department has been asserting in updating
syllabus, introducing new courses such as
Advance Diploma in Applied Art, Diploma in
Photography and Textile Designing (Proposals
are submitted to CPC, AMU).
51
Detail five major Strengths,
Weaknesses, Opportunities
and Challenges (SWOC) of
the department.
Strength:
Continuous endeavours for the progress of the
Department.
Weakness:
The Department needs to be transformed as Faculty
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 302 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
of Fine Arts. A wide range of discipline such as
Graphics, Applied art, Sculpture, History of Fine
Arts etc. should be introduced as new departments
to facilitate students with more choice and
extensive studies. It will also provide them new
avenues of collaborative and inter- disciplinary
studies and research. Besides, one post of
Professor, reader and two posts of Assistant
Professor are vacant in the department.
Appointments on the above posts will augment
progress of the department.
Problems related with infrastructure needs to be
resolved.
Opportunity:
Recently Art Gallery has been given to the
Department of Fine Arts which will provide
an opportunity to launch full-fledged art
exhibitions on national and International
levels. Art- workshops, lectures,
demonstrations, seminars etc. can also be
organized for the benefit of students.
New courses in the subject Graphics, Applied Art
and Sculpture should be started in the
Department because these courses have
already been approved by the Academic
Council in its meeting No. 736 and the
Executive Council meeting No. 608 dated
31.07.2000 and the Visitor AMU vide letter
No. F3-31/2000 Desk (u) dated 13.01.2002.
Challenges:
The challenges lie for the Department to uplift the
standard of art education and research at national
and international level.
Future plans of the department.
We have been continuously asserting for the
substantial growth. A detailed plan has been
submitted in the UGC under the XIIth Five year
plan for the financial assistance to start new courses
in Graphics, Applied Art, Sculpture and History of
Fine Arts. We visualize this Department as to
transform into a Faculty of Visual Arts.
The use and performance of Art- Gallery should be
adhering to professional purposes. It can be run like
those professional galleries running in the other
part of the country where artists are selling their
Art-works on 70%and 30% basis (70% goes to the
artist and 30% to the Gallery). National and
International artists can be invited for Art-
exhibition, workshop, Performance–art, video-art,
Installations, Public-art etc. We can also start
online business of Art-works. Monographs,
catalogues and Art-News can be published. Great
Masters or famous artist’s Art- works can be

Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports Page 303 of 690
treasured as permanent Art Collection and their
replica and post cards can be put on sale. Art-
Gallery can be given on rent for Solo and Group
art-exhibition. Hence, the Art Gallery can virtually
prove as good prospect for benefiting students,
faculty members and promoting art - business.

Detail five major Strengths, Weaknesses,
Opportunities and Challenges (SWOC) of
the department:
The department of Hindi, AMU
Aligarh, is one of the biggest
departments among central
universities of the country. The
department has most qualified and
learned Faculties of different fields
with latest approach in their area of
specialisation. The department has
multidisciplinary approach as well as
interdisciplinary approach in the area
of comparative research. The
department has better infrastructure
for higher study as well as for research
study. The department has different
active “forums” for PG and research
students to develop their personality
and communication skill beyond their
latest and new trends of study. The
department is also publishing a
research journal “ABHINAV
BHARTI” with high standard having
ISSN NO regularly.
52
Future plans of the department.
Although the department has more
space and opportunity in the area of
higher learning and research, but more
things are to be done to fulfill the
requirements and needs of present and
modern time. We are going to develop
a modern language lab, a very rich
library and well equipped seminar hall
very soon. Also, the department is
planning to develop an advance study
centre to give better pace in the area of
research. The department is preparing
a proposal for SAP centre which will
create a better environment and
opportunity for research studies. It
Aligarh Muslim University

will also help to develop good
infrastructure for higher learning as
well as for research. The department is
planning to introduce a new PG course
“M.A. In functional Hindi
(Journalism)” to provide better job
opportunities to the students. The
department is also trying to provide
better facilities to the faculty
members, so that, they may prepare
themselves according to the needs of
modern system of education. It is our
future planning to develop this
department as the best Hindi
department of the country.

the programmes the methods
that are used are mostly
deductive methods. These
methods may approximately
be labelled as follows:
Lecture-cum-demonstration method.
Depending upon the topic power point presentation
method.
The field linguistics mostly involves the analysis and
interpretation of the linguistic data. Therefore
the method adopted here can be labeled as do
and understand method.
Depending upon the situation a mixture of all the
methods viz., eclectic method is used.
47
How does the department
ensure that programme
objectives are constantly met
and, earning outcomes are
monitored?
As per the guidelines of the university the department
conducts sessional tests and terminal

Besides the above the students in each programme
are given class tests, orals tests, class room
interactions, home work, assignments, etc.
Sometimes students in a group or individually are
asked to write assignments, brief dissertations
etc on a particular theme and present them in the
seminar.
Students especially at the research level are asked to
write research papers and present them before a
larger audience.
These are some of the ways through which the
department meets the objectives of a programme
and monitors the outcomes of different academic

exercises.
48
Highlight the participation of
students and faculty in
extension activities:

Before the commencement of a semester the University draws the schedule of
admissions and examinations; working days in each semester are fixed; the
department has to follow this schedule; in view of this not much time is left out
for extension activities.
Notwithstanding the tight schedule as given above, the department takes the M.A. III
Semester. Students to some new area and they are exposed to a new dialect; they
are asked work in group there; the faculty too participates in this activity.
Depending upon the available time students are encouraged to participate in various
socio-cultural programmes organized in the Universities; they are also
encouraged to participate in debating competitions, quizzes that are organized on

Briefly highlight the
contributions of the
department in generating new
knowledge, basic or applied:
The Department since its inception has an unwritten
mandate to work on Urdu language and
linguistics.
Therefore the work that got generated in the
department on Urdu language and linguistics is
authentic and innovative.
The research that has generated on Urdu language
and linguistics can be divided into three areas-
one related to the origin and development of
Urdu; second- its structural aspects and third- its
sociolinguistic context.
Apart from this, Urdu language has also been looked
into from stylistic point of view; some work has
been done with regard to translation and a few
monographs have been published from the
viewpoint of contrastive linguistic on Urdu
language.
Some of the seminars workshops, symposia etc that
are organized from time to time also exclusively
focus on Urdu linguistics.
Even though the focus in the department is on Urdu
linguistics other areas are not neglected. Thus
the department undertook projects on tribal
linguistics, sociolinguistics, language teaching
etc.
Some of our doctoral research students hail from
Middle Eastern countries. By way of working
on the Arabic and English language situation in
their respective countries they have generated a
new set of knowledge with respect to Arabic
and English language teaching.
A few of our Indian students have worked on topics
dealing with Hindi language and linguistics; some
have worked on dialects such as Bhojpuri,
Awadhi, Mewati, Braj etc. Thus the department
has strived to bring out research on unexplored
and virgin areas and generate new knowledge in
the subject.
52
Detail five major Strengths,
Weaknesses, Opportunities
and Challenges (SWOC) of
the department:
Five major strengths of the Department:
The Department of Linguistics, AMU, is the only
department in the country which takes up issues
on Urdu language and linguistics.
The Faculty consists of highly qualified, renowned
linguists, who are visible in their respective areas
at national and international levels.
In teaching and research high standards are
maintained and academically our students are
getting into prestigious institutions.
The department has a good smart class room-cum-
laboratory equipped with computers and other
required electronic gadgets which are highly
useful in language/linguistics research.
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 328 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
The scholarly contribution made by the department
was recognized by UGC and the latter awarded
special Assistance Programme (SAP) to the
department.
Weaknesses:
The department is lacking in infra-structural facilities.
We do not have classrooms and sufficient
number of office –rooms for the teaching faculty.
At least two senior level teaching positions have been
lying vacant since many years.
Despite our best efforts a good number of our
students are not getting into research
programmes in prestigious institutions like IITS.
Again despite our best efforts a good number of our
students are not qualifying for national level tests
such as NET, JRF etc.
The department does not have sufficient secretarial
staff. We also do not have a senior level staff in
the office. There is need to strengthen the
department in this direction.
Opportunities:
The department is seeking to make interfaces with
other similar national and international
institution so that interdisciplinary research can
be carried out. One such interface in the form of
an MoU was made with Centre for the
Development of Advance Computing, Noida .
The individual faculty members of the department are
seeking to built academic bridges and interfaces
with other institutions of repute. Thus the multi-
University project viz.,with Prof. S.Imtiaz Hasnain
as principle investigator and National Council for
Promotion of Urdu Language’s Project ‘Urdu ke
Ilaqai rup’ with Prof. A.R.Fatihi as principal
investigator are a case in point.
The department is seeking to be visible nationally and
internationally by way of organizing national and
international seminars, conferences etc. Thus
many national events and at least two
international events (mentioned in point no.30)
are a case in point.
The department is seeking to make forays in applied
areas of linguistics. While doing so the
department also takes into account market-driven
areas. Therefore introducing a Master degree
course in language of Advertising, Media and
Market from session 2013-14 is a case in point.
The department is also seeking to be more visible in
the area of experimental linguistics. Therefore in
the first opportune moment the department
equipped itself with a laboratory-cum-smart class
room. This has facilitated our students working
in this area.

Challenges:
Even through the academic standards of the
department are high,standards-wise the
department is not comparable to institutions like
IITS, IIITS etc. Therefore to elevate the
academic standards at the department is a major
challenge.
Linked with the above point is that the number of
NET, SET and other competitive exams is very
meagre. Therefore to enhance the number of
qualifiers of these tests/exams is also a major
challenge.
Due to onslaught of globalization, explosion in web
technology our lesser known languages- tribal
languages and minority languages are at the
receiving end. The department had proposed the
establishment of a Centre for endangered
languages. Despite our best efforts we have not
succeeded in this. Therefore getting a Centre for
the purpose has been a major challenge for us.
Natural language processing or computational
linguistics is an area with a wide scope. Its
growth has been enormous in the past two
decades. However our department has not been
able to catch up in the area. Therefore our
challenge is to have this area in a big way in our
curriculum and to develop this as a special area
of study in the department.
Similarly experimental linguistics is also a growing
area and hold slot of scope for the future. Except
for a few minor items nothing substantial is
available in the department. To develop this area
in the department is a challenge for us.

Future plans of the
department:
Well, in the current report we have described the
present status of department and also hinted here and
there at the requirements. Taking a cue from this we
may elaborate the lines which we want our
department to grow on.
They are as follows:
Centre for the study of Endangered Languages: We
have already proposed this and our proposal is
with the University authorities. We will strive to
get the proposal accepted and approved by the
AMU and the UGC.
Language Resource Centre: The department currently
does not have any facility for the documentation
of Indian Languages and their changing trends.
Therefore we need a Language Resources Centre
for the purpose.
NLP Lab: As pointed out above the department
currently does not have NLP as a
subject/Specialization due to various reason. We
have proposed to have this subject as part of our
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 330 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
curriculum from session 2013-14. Therefore we
would like have NLP for this purpose.
Lab for experimental Linguistics: The department at
present is not equipped with technology that is
useful in experimental linguistics/phonetics. We
require such a lab and plan to have one.
Now courses: Translation is gradually growing as a
globally important area. Linguistics as a
discipline has a lot to contribute to translation.
Therefore in future the department proposes to
start a full-fledged master degree programme in
translation. Similarly we propose to launch a
master degree programme in Applied Linguistics
too.

and Challenges (SWOC) of
the department

Strengths:
Research Work of the Department has been recognized at National & International level
Weakness:
Timely promotion of the teachers are not done, therefore there is a scarcity of
teachers and many post are lying vacant
No proper space for Seminar and sufficient rooms for teachers for UG & PG Classes
There are no rooms for Computers
No Separate Toilet for Staff
Scarcity of Non-Teaching Staff
Opportunities
Collection of rare books
Challenges
Appointment of deserving teachers so that student can also understand the depth and
importance of Sanskrit literature and language and fare well in future in building
their future.
50 Future plans of the department

It is now a universally accepted fact that Sanskrit Language is the most suitable
language for Computer. It has been acknowledged even by the NASA scientists.
Our Department will take steps in providing a well-equipped Computer Lab to
the teachers and research scholars. It will help them in carrying on further
intensive interdisciplinary research in various fields.
The Department has a plan to introduce manuscriptology as a subject to be taught. It
will also have major research project on the subject, Short term courses will
also be introduced in future.
Sanskrit education is incomplete without the knowledge of Pali and Prakrit.
Therefore the Department will pay emphasis on the teaching of these languages.
A large number of Jain and Buddhist texts in Sanskrit are still lying untouched in
several libraries. These texts are to be traced and studied analytically. The
Department will work in this regard.
‘Dharmarthakamamoksanamarogyammulamuttamam’ For any short of
accomplishment, sound mental and separate it physical health is essential. The
ensure healthy mind and body, Maharshi Patanjali enumerates principles. Our
Department has plan to introduce special classes on yoga which will be based
on Patnajali’s Yogasntra.
Short term courses on simple spoken Sanskrit will be conducted through out the
year. Teachers and students of any discipline can join this course.

The UGC while agreeing to the creation of the
Department of Applied Chemistry by upgradation
the chemistry section has postulated introduction og
P.G. course in the department. In view of the
above, M.Sc. Polymer Science and Technology is
being proposed. The students who pass the B.Sc.
degree examination continue their education at the
postgraduate level as a matter of convention and
routine. However, the proposed course is designed
to impart the fundamental and advanced knowledge
in the field of polymers along with the core concept
in chemistry may get opportunities to work both in
chemical process industries and in academia.

Detail five major Strengths,
Weaknesses, Opportunities
and Challenges (SWOC) of
the department.
Major strengths:
Highly qualified faculty.
Our major strength lies research in the areas of
Nanotechnology, and Materials Science.
Other key area of research is High Energy
Physics. One of the faculty members (Dr. M.
Mohsin Khan) is associated with the
International CERN project.
Department is also funded by DST, DST
(PURSE), CST (UP) and UGC under various
Aligarh Muslim University
Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports Page 415 of 690
research schemes.
Department has four research laboratories of high
standard.
Mostly the faculty is young and dynamic, ready to
take initiatives, accept challenges and work
in harmony.
Weakness: The faculty is very active but there is a
little paucity of research personnel and staff.
Also, there is lack of smart class rooms and lack
of proper seating space in seminar library.
Opportunity:
The department already got hold in the emerging
area of the field of nanotechnology.
Students/researchers have the opportunity to
learn/work on the various state-of-art
research equipments.
Challenge: We have taken up the challenge of finding
some break through on the frontier of the science such
as yet to be confirming the discovery of the god
particle or higgs boson and development of excellent
devices in the area of nanotechnology.
52
Future plans of the
department.
The department is highly engaged in the field of
nanotechnology, and in the processes of
developing patent and devices in the near future.
The Department will provide training facility to the
students and young faculty and also ready to work
in collaboration with other Institution/ department
in this regard.
In order to get benefit from the Institution/ University,
the Department of Applied Physics is wishes to
establish student and teacher exchange programs.
One such MoA has been signed between AMU-
Ohio state University, USA in order to benefit
from their expertise in the field of education and
research.
Attempt has been made to start PhD in
Nanotechnology and same has been approved by
various bodies of the University (BOS, Faculty
meeting and Academic Council).
Organizing workshops and lectures of eminent
scholars.
Organization of the International Conference in the
field of Nanoscience & Nanotechnology in
collaboration with Ohio State University USA
and CEERI Pilani, Rajasthan. The first
International Conference is planned in during
March 8-10, 2014.

Briefly highlight the
contributions of the
department in generating new
knowledge, basic or applied
Department of Architecture had earlier undertaken
Architectural Design/planning/Valuation/consultancy
thereby evolving new design and plans which is akin
to generating new knowledge in applied and utilitarian
area
51
Detail five major Strengths,
Weaknesses, Opportunities
and Challenges (SWOC) of
the department
Strength: Good work and performance in practice,
profession and higher education by the students
because of dedicated teachers guidance in the limited
resources of staff, space, funds is the main strength of
this department.
Weakness: Location of an Architecture institution in
the medium sized town not fully developed city like
Aligarh is the main weakness of this department at
A.M.U. which results in little or virtually no exposure
of students to well designed & developed Architecture
and planned urban situations. The problem is
compounded because of non conduct of frequent case-
study, site-study and educational tours because of
logistic (limited number of teachers allowed on tours
of each batch, lady escort and availability of
University bus etc) and financial constrains.
Opportunities: Being a professional discipline, all the
students graduating from this department either get
absorbed in profession as employee, pursue higher
education and research or start their own practice/
consultancy as an Architect or enterprise.
Challenges: Department lacking in space, staff,
equipments and funds for the maintenance of these
equipments is a major weakness, challenge and thus a
major concern of the department as established
building and equipment is decaying and deteriorating.
52
Future plans of the
department.
To make Architectural education less stringent on
statutory requirement and make it a process of
learning with fun and learning by doing.
To substantially enhance the level of competence and
competitiveness of architecture students, high
enough to be able to compete with the best in the
world.
To augment staff, space, equipment and fund’s
position of the department for the already running

Code of ethics for research
followed by the departments.
The Department ensures that rigorous ethical
standards are maintained in conducting research work
by its inmates. Some of the elements of the code of
ethics followed include:
The work of others is cited or credited, whether
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 458 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
published or unpublished. Originality of the
selected research topic/area is ensured by
conducting class presentations and research
colloquia on the topics selected by PG/Ph.D.
students in which the faculty members scrutinize
the originality and relevance of the topic selected.
Authenticity of the data collection and the written
work is ensured by the supervisors by continuous
monitoring of their students work (regular
attendance of PG, Ph.D. scholars in mandatory for
2 years).
Accuracy of data and other information as well as
validity of methodological procedures are ensured
by regular presentations of students’ work in
research colloquia (for Ph.D. students) and class
presentations (for P.G. dissertations) in which the
Faculty members scrutinize and keep track of the
work of the researchers so that misinterpretation
and suppression of data is avoided.
The researchers are given freedom to explore and
select topics of their choice rather than the topics
being imposed on them by their supervisors.
The overall environment of the Department and
Institute is surcharged with high moral and ethical
values and the students right from their admission
into the Department are motivated to adhere
strictly to ethical norms of the Institute including,
those of research.

(57) Abstract :
The invented system presents a novel scheme to obtain a continuous three-phase
electric supply even with one phase being out from incoming feeder automatically.
This is possible using special connection of windings of a customed designed
transformer. The proposed system automatically detects the faulted phase and
provides necessary correction to output three-phase supply by recreating the outgoing
phase. In case of two phase fault or outages of two phases, the proposed invention
automatically shut down the complete system thus providing safety to the electrical
loads connected to the feeder. In case of two phases carrying same voltage/current
(equal magnitude with same phase angle) then the proposed invention will shut the

(57) Abstract :
A novel approach of obtaining volt per hertz control of a three-phase induction motor
drive is documented in this proposal. The variable frequency transformer (VFT) is a
device which is capable of producing variable voltage and variable frequency
(VVVF) and is used effectively for constant V/f drive. The main component of VFT
is a rotary transformer (slip-ring type three-phase induction motor) with three-phase
windings on both stator and rotor. A dc motor drive system is mechanically coupled
with the VFT, to adjust the rotational speed of the rotor with respect to stator,
therefore controlling the magnitude of rotor winding voltage and frequency.
Simulation and experimental results have been obtained to verify the concept of VFT
based V/f control of a three-phase induction motor drive and reported. The
advantages and shortcomings of the proposed approach are highlighted.

(57) Abstract :
The present invention relates to mobile/cell phones in general and more particularly,
the present invention relates to charging of mobile/cell phones without electric
supply/battery operated chargers. The present invention is about the development of
charger free cellular phones. The basic concept is that there are number of Radio
Frequency (RF) signals in the environment. Most importantly, in mobile context, the
mobile tracking signal is almost available everywhere mobile network exist. When
mobile is in idle state (not in talking state), even then it communicates with the
nearest BTS through some RF signals to keep track of current location of the mobile
set. The present invention (Cell Phone inbuilt Interface circuit) shall convert these RF
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 508 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
signals into equivalent DC signal of requisite value, which shall be fed to the battery
of cell phone to charge it. The RF signal strength is approximately of the order of
2mW. Each cell phone generally receives seven to eight RF signal of different
strength for tracking purpose. In addition, there are plenty of RF signals (mostly
around 900 MHz and 1800 MHz) available most of the time. The present invention is
about utilization of these RF signals to charge batteries of mobiles and other
handheld/portable electronic devices.

Detail five major Strengths,
Weaknesses, Opportunities
and Challenges (SWOC) of
the department.
Strengths: Amongst the first institutes in north
India to start courses on downstream petroleum
processing and petrochemicals.
Dedicated staff: Faculty members are always
willing to learn new methods/technologies and
upgrade their skills
Weakness: Acute shortage of technical and office
staff leading to poor maintenance of laboratories,
library, workshop and office records.
Oppurtunities: The department is well suited to
diversify into areas of upstream oil & gas
engineering, and renewable energy.
Starting short term courses for industry sponsored
people.
Challenges: Acceptance of the undergraduate
degree program by the industry. Feedback by the
alumni prompts students requesting to change/alter
the name. This has also led to the consideration of
the merger of the department to another department.

53
Detail five
majorStrengths,
Weaknesses,
Opportunities and
Challenges (SWOC) of
the department:
Strengths:
1. The Department of Biochemistry offers both
undergraduate (B.Sc.) and graduate (M.Sc.) degree
programs relevant to the core of the basic
biochemistry, biotechnology and biomedical
science.
2. We have an enthusiastic Chair and Faculty with
fairly diverse research interests, which the students
Aligarh Muslim University
Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports Page 601 of 690
are encouraged to explore.
3. The Department with its competent faculty
produces highly sought after undergraduate and
graduate students. The faculty is engaged in doing
research, relevant to international scientific issues,
which is reflected in the research publications in
peer reviewed international journals.
4. Students graduated from our department have gone
on to pursue prestigious doctoral, postdoctoral or
other research programs abroad and within the
country.
5. The student friendly environment of the department
and the availability of the teachers where student
can interact with them at any time without any
inhibitions.
Weaknesses:
1. Frequent power failure is very disturbing for the
researchers as well as for the undergraduate and
graduate students to continue work in the
laboratory. Even the generator back-up would not
have been working all the time.
2. To do quality work we do not have the supportive
infrastructure and instrumentation.
3. Red tapism consumes a lot of productive time and
affects the work/research efficiency.
4. Shortage of supporting staff to manage animal
house facility.
5. Absence of an independent/exclusive seminar
library for the Department, fairly limits the library
usage by undergraduate students.
Opportunities:
1. Updating subject knowledge.
2. Greater use of technology.
3. Developing research competency through various
training programmes.
4. Fostering research collaborations with scientists
working at institutions of advanced learning, both
within the country and abroad.
Challenges:
1. To increase the research output of the Department
in terms of a greater number of high impact
research publications in journals of repute.
2. To put greater emphasis on specialized disciplines
such as neuroscience and cancer biology.
3. To organize meetings that may provide a platform
for interaction between the international/national
scientists and the research scholars on a more
regular basis. This will immensely help students in
their career development and shall be beneficial to
the institution and the community at large.
54
Future plans of the
department.
• Upgrading laboratory to facilitate research
activities.
• Procurement of new instrument and equipment.
Aligarh Muslim University
Page 602 of 690 Volume II A: SSR: Evaluative Reports
