In order to do this, the CVRU-IQAC first established its procedures and modalities to collect data and information on various aspects of University’s functioning. Since, quality assurance is a by-product of ongoing efforts to define the objectives of the University, thus, the CVRU-IQAC has a work plan to achieve them and to specify the checks and balances to evaluate the degree to which each of the tasks is fulfilled. Hence, the devotion and commitment of CVRU-IQAC is to the improvement rather than mere organizational control which is the basis for devising procedures and instruments for assuring quality in Dr. C.V.
