Welfare Scheme

The objectives of the scheme are:

  1. To implement earn and learn scheme for economical support and value education to our students.
  2. To implement various programs such as disaster management, gender equality, nirbhay kanya abhiyan for awareness and training of our students.
  3. To aware and guide our students for applying to various scholarships.
  4. To encourage our students for social contribution.
  5. To try to resolve various issues raised by our students.

For fulfilling the first objectives, we select the needy and sincere students to work under the earn and learn scheme. The selected students work under the guidance of the Head of Departments of various Engineering branches. Some students work in various research projects, in Library, in making circuits or drawings etc. by which they earn some amount as honorarium as well as they learn new things.

We implement this scheme under the guidance of the Board of Students’ Development, Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU). Following is the data regarding this scheme and against which our College received around 90% grant out of the total expenditure every year from SPPU.

Sr. No. Academic Year Number of Participants Honorarium per Hour Total Expenditure
1 2015-16 23 Rs.30 Rs.57,660
2 2016-17 12 Rs.45 (February 2017) Rs.49,665
3 2017-18 42 Rs.45 Rs.1,64,880
4 2018-19 67 Rs.45 Rs.2,76,130
5 2019-20 31 Rs.45 Rs.1,78,560
6 2020-21 NIL Rs.45 No approval due to COVID19
7 2021-22 17 Rs.45 Rs. 1665
8 2022-23 42 Rs.45 Rs.12,330

 

This data and the student’s feedback clearly show that the scheme is really helpful for the needy and economically poor students. But due to COVID-19 pandemic the scheme was not functioning effectively during last two to three years.
