Internal Quality Assurance Cell.
What we measure, how we measure it, and what we're doing about what the numbers tell us.
About IQAC
The Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) is a body constituted in every higher-education institution, in line with UGC and NAAC guidelines, to develop a system for conscious, consistent and catalytic improvement in the institution's overall performance.
At Gopal ji Mahavidyalaya, the IQAC is responsible for:
- Developing and applying quality benchmarks for the institution's academic and administrative activities
- Facilitating a learner-centric environment conducive to quality education
- Conducting periodic feedback from students, parents and stakeholders
- Documenting various programmes / activities leading to quality improvement
- Acting as a nodal agency for coordinating quality-related activities, including the preparation of the Annual Quality Assurance Report (AQAR) for submission to NAAC

NAAC accreditation
The college's NAAC accreditation status and AQAR reports will be published on this page as they are completed. For the current cycle, the IQAC is in the process of preparing the Self-Study Report (SSR) under the current NAAC framework.
Stakeholders — students, parents, alumni, employers — are invited to share feedback by writing to [email protected] with the subject line "IQAC feedback".
Stakeholder feedback
Anonymous student-feedback forms are circulated each semester. The IQAC publishes a one-page summary of the feedback received and the action taken — these summaries will be linked here as they are produced.
