Teacher Sponsored-Student Aid Fund (TS-SAF)

Goal

1. To provide educational and monetary support to needy
2. To reduce chances of drop-out of students for lack of any institutional support

The concept The basic motive of this scheme is to help students in the form of payment of their exam fees, tuition fees, and required educational material for continuation of their education. As Solapur region falls under drought prone area and students community from our college belong to poor to average background there is need to provide financial support to sustain their education.  The Practice:

• Under this innovative scheme all our teachers unanimously came forward with a genuine motive to help poor and needy students either from the common bank account set up for the same or individually adopting the student and fulfilling his/her educational needs.
• Contributions from staff are collected and deposited in a separate bank account opened in the name of H.N.C.C.Staff Academy with Lokmangal Co-operative Bank Ltd, Main BranchSolapur with the Savings A/c no. 0020011110052149. In the staff meeting held on December 2, 2014, it was unanimously resolved that two staff members,Shri. S. G. Ingale and Shri. D.K. Chilwant/ Mr A G Devsalebe authorized to jointly operate the account. Help through this account is given to the needy students by cheque.

 This initiative works in following steps.

• Applications are invited from students who wish to avail support and help from TS-SAF
• The applications are then scrutinized by college faculty to verify the needs and demands of students
• Individual counseling with the concerned students is conducted
• After proper verification the students are offered necessary support for continuation of their education

IPR cell adopt a sound IP strategy, to secure IPR for a large base of knowledgeable Faculty and highly talented Students in the University.Regular project and research activities of University having innovation potential. So,we are in the process of setting up structured processes to identify, facilitate and develop innovation. In corporate organizations, almost always, there is an exclusive unit dedicated to strategizing on issues of IP. The motivation for this, of course, is to secure optimal commercial returns on the IP. However, the scenario is different in academic institutes such as ours. Here, the returns, in terms of goodwill and portfolio enhancement, are more important than commercial returns. Research is believed in the Institute as practice of profession and not career. IPR cell is here to provide relevant, timely and targeted support to inventors in protecting their IPR and to boost confidence in generating IPR to make our Institute Self-Reliance in Finances Objectives

1. To create  awareness about IPR for faculties and students of the University
2. To conduct workshops, seminars and training course on IPR
