Feedback Mechanism @ VPSM
Vijay Patil School of Management (VPSM) has instituted a comprehensive online student feedback mechanism as a key component of its continuous quality assurance and enhancement process. The system is designed to actively involve students in the evaluation and improvement of academic and administrative practices.
Feedback is collected twice during each semester — the first round is conducted after 6–8 weeks from the commencement of the semester, allowing the institute to take timely corrective actions where required, and the second round is held at the end of the semester to assess the overall effectiveness of teaching–learning processes and support systems.
Students from all academic programs are encouraged to provide their honest and constructive feedback on various dimensions, including:
• Faculty performance (subject expertise, clarity of instruction, engagement, fairness in
assessment, etc.)
• Administrative processes (responsiveness,
communication, and student support services)
• Infrastructure and facilities (classrooms,
laboratories, library, IT resources, and other
learning environments)
The feedback received is systematically compiled, analysed, and reviewed by the Dean. Key findings and actionable insights are communicated to individual faculty members and relevant administrative units. Where necessary, mentoring or developmental support is provided to faculty to enhance their pedagogical and professional competencies.
This structured and transparent feedback mechanism has enabled VPSM to maintain a student-centric culture of continuous improvement. It has resulted in tangible outcomes such as improved teaching effectiveness and greater accountability among staff.
