Dean Academics,
DYP Salokhenagar.
Dear Students and Colleagues,
I extend my warm greetings to you all as I take charge as the new Academic Dean of DYPCOE, Salokhenagar, Kolhapur. It gives me immense pride to be a part of this esteemed institution and to continue our collective journey of teaching and learning.
Education today is rapidly transforming, becoming more student-centric and outcome-based. At DYPCOE, we remain committed to adopting innovative teaching methodologies such as experiential learning, participative learning, and problem-solving approaches. These methods ensure active student participation and meaningful learning experiences.
Alongside quality academics, our institute places strong emphasis on discipline. Discipline is the backbone of professional growth, and we expect our students to maintain the highest standards of conduct both inside and outside the classroom. Regular attendance in theory classes as well as laboratory sessions is mandatory and every student is expected to follow the academic calendar diligently. Punctuality, active participation, and consistent performance will be closely monitored throughout the semester.
We also recognize the importance of holistic student development. To bridge the gap between academics and industry, we conduct industrial visits, expert lectures, training programs, internships, and collaborative projects with industries. At the same time, students are encouraged to participate in co-curricular activities, clubs, and competitions that build confidence, teamwork, and leadership qualities.
As an affiliated institute of Shivaji University, Kolhapur, we follow the Choice-Based Credit System (CBCS) and are implementing the National Education Policy (NEP) from September 2024. A strong mentoring system, combined with the use of ICT tools, ensures that our teaching-learning process remains effective, transparent, and student-centric.
At DYPCOE, our goal is not only to provide education but also to nurture discipline, skills, and values that prepare students to become responsible professionals and citizens. With commitment, hard work, and discipline, I am confident that our students will achieve great success and bring pride to the institute.
Let us work together to build a culture of excellence, responsibility, and integrity at DYPCOE.
