Introduction
Department of Entomology was started in 1980 with the establishment of Agriculture College. In the beginning, department used to offer minor courses of Entomology for the students of B.Sc. (Hons). agriculture specializing in disciplines other than Entomology. During the year 1986, the department started B.Sc. Hons. Degree Program in Entomology. With the up gradation of College to the status of University in 1994, the department made tremendous efforts to upgrade B.Sc. Hons. Program. Consequently, M.Sc. Hons. degree program was started in 1997 and Ph.D. program was introduced during 1998. The department is committed to quality teaching and research in the area of Entomology. Mission of the department is to produce professionally skilled and academically sound entomologists to resolve the challenges relating to the insect pests infesting field crop, stored commodities, functioning as vector of plant/ animal diseases and producing useful products directly and to improve quality of the human life and economy of the country indirectly. Keeping in view its mission and objectives, the department of Entomology recurrently reviews its curriculum to meet the challenges in the field. The department is always committed to enhance students professional training and career opportunities. It arranges field visits and holds national and international seminars on current issues relating to the protection and quality of post-harvest etc. The faculty is actively engaged in a number of research projects some of which are funded by the Higher Education Commission, Pakistan Science Foundation etc.
The department never compromises on quality. Since the faculty has been inducted purely on merit basis, so it is committed to promote merit and improve quality of education, teaching and research. The department is always willing to cooperate with the Quality Enhancement Cell of the University as well as to incorporate their recommendations for improving standard of teaching, quality of learning and achievement of its objectives. This report reflects efforts of the department to evaluate its performance for future improvement in collaboration with the QEC. This Self Assessment Report (SAR) contains eight sections. The first section outlines the programme mission and objectives. Section 2 provides information about the curriculum development. Section 3 enlists the laboratories and other relevant information followed by student support and guidance. The last four sections provide information about student support, process control, faculty characteristics and institutional facilities and support provided by the university.
resistance against the pesticides are the burning issues of today which warrant continuous processes of education and research.

Future Need More spacious and well equipped laboratories to fulfill the contemporary level of research/education are necessitated for better output. Standard-3.1: Laboratory manuals/documentation/instructions for experiments must be available and edaily accessible to faculty and students Laboratory manuals are not available. The department library has not all the relevant books. However, individual teachers have their books. The laboratories are not specious and inadequate. The equipments are out date and out of order. Equipments regards molecular approaches are lacking e.g. Stereoscope, centrifuge (slow and ultr), PAG-Electrophoresis apparition, PCR Spectrophotometer, NPLC, relevant software, chemicals and biochemicals. Standard-3.2: There must be support personal for instruction and maintaining the laboratories. Laboratories are maintained by only one laboratory assistant (equipment, glassware, chemicals, material etc). Three laboratories attendant assist the students in practicals, cleaning and washing. 61
Standard-3.3: The University computing infrastructure and facilities must be adequate to support programs objectives. To upgrade the prevailing education facilities, separate class rooms are needed as presently classes (lectures) are taken in laboratories. Space limitation is a major constraint as department could not initiated some of the major subjects like apiculture, sericulture, host plant resistance and biological control research activities. o Computing facilities support: Not available to all faculty members and the post graduate students. o Shortcoming in computing infrastructure: Computers with internet facilities should be available to all faculty members and postgraduate students. o Safety Arrangements: There is no proper safety arrangements and no security plan are in place in case of emergency. The department is located on the 2nd floor, there is no emergency exits for the labs. No fire extinguishers have been installed in any laboratory. No first aid kits/facilities provided in the laboratories/department.
62
Standard-4.2: Courses in the major area of study must be structured to ensure effective interaction between students, faculty and teaching assistants.
All of the courses are designed / tailored to address the teaching needs in an effective way. In this regard teaching staff and students are consulted periodically to get the feedback for further improvement. Along with theoretical aspects of the courses, practical work is also done in field/laboratories while students are also oriented to tackle their professional needs through different assignments and submission of reports. They are coupled with various institutions/organization to get updated knowledge and insight addressing their future needs. In this regard
Keeping in view the feedback from students and teachers, courses are structured and updated in the board of study meeting.
63
It is common and general practice to maintain an effective interaction between students and faculty and inter and intra classes of the students.
Standard-4.3: Guidance on how to complete the program must be available to all students and access to qualified advising must be available to make course decisions and career choices. Students are guided properly in relation to their on-going educational programs at university and also focusing their future needs.

Students are informed about the program requirement through the office of the head of the department.
Their information records related to their studies are regularly updated through teacher student interaction.
- Directorate of Placement Bureau also helps in communicating and exploring jobs for
the university students.
64
Standard-5.2: The process by which students are registered in the program and monitoring of students progress to ensure timely completion of the program must be documented. This process must be periodically evaluated to ensure that it is meeting its objectives Registration of students is done once in a degree course but evaluation is done a number of times through different examination stages. Successful completion of one semester ensures the promotion to the next semester. Recommendations regarding admission process for different departments are forwarded to the Registrar office for their formal registration as university student. On successful completion of 4th semester, graduate students are allotted major courses by the Dean Faculty of FC & FS. Admission merit based upon marks percentages of previous and entry test exams etc.
65
Standard-5.3: The process of recruiting and retaining highly qualified faculty members must be in place and clearly documented. Also processes and procedures for faculty evaluation, promotion must be consistent with institution mission statement. These processes must be periodically evaluated to ensure that it is meeting with its objectives University follows recruitment policy given by the HEC. Induction of all positions at Faculty level is done as per rule: Different faculty positions are advertised in different newspapers of national circulation; Applications are received by the Registrar office, call letters are issued to the shortlisted candidates on the basis of experience, qualification, publications and other qualities/activities as fixed by the University. The candidates are interviewed by the University Selection Board and Principal and alternate candidates are selected. Selection of candidates is approved by the Syndicate for issuing orders to join within a specified period. Induction of new candidates depends upon the number of approved vacancies. At present, no procedure exists for retaining highly qualified faculty members, however, the revised pay scales of structure is quite attractive. HEC also supports appointment of highly qualified members as foreign faculty Professor, National Professors and deputes them in various departments of the University.
Standard 5-4: The process and procedures used to ensure that teaching and delivery of course material to the students emphasizes active learning and that course learning outcomes are met. The process must be periodically evaluated to ensure that it is meting its objectives To impart the most recent advances and techniques in entomology, course curriculum are regularly revised / updated time to time. With the emergence of new fields, new courses are set and included in the curriculum. Students usually buy relatively cheaper books of Asian Editions. These editions are also available in university library where computers, electronic journals and internet facility are made available to all faculty members and students. All sorts of audio visual aids are utilized in educational process. 66
All efforts are made that the courses and knowledge imparted meet the objectives and outcome. The progress is regularly reviewed in the staff meetings.
Standard 5-5: The process that ensures that graduates have completed the requirements of the program must be based on standards, effective and clearly documented procedures. This process must be periodically evaluated to ensure that it is meeting its objectives. The Controller of Examinations announces the date of commencement of examination. After 10-20 days of the examinations, the controller office notifies the results of the students. The evaluation procedure involves quizzes, mid and final examinations, practicals, assignments and reports, oral and technical presentations. Candidates who secure 80% or above marks are awarded grade A; grade Gold medals are awarded to the students who secure highest marks in various fields. Degrees are awarded to the students on the annual convocation that is held annually.

Standard- 7.2: The library must possess an up-to-date technical collection relevant to the program and must be adequately staffed with professional personnel The University Central Library has very limited number of books, journals and periodicals. Its a small library in term of space and facilities with no catalogue systems. It does not meet the standards of a University Library. Department itself does not have a library. It needs funds allocation to establish a well equipped library at departmental level. Standard- 7.3: Class-rooms must be adequately equipped and offices must be adequate to enable faculty to carry out their responsibilities Currently the class rooms are not enough and the space is not only limited but some basic facilities are lacking. Multimedia are not available for the lecture halls. Practical lab space is also not meeting the needs which affects the quality of teaching. Although at present offices for
121
the faculty are sufficient, yet on the return of the remaining faculty, we will face severe problem regarding shortages of offices for the staff.
122
Standard 8-1: There must be sufficient support and financial resources to attract and retain high quality faculty and provide the means for them to maintain competence as teachers and scholars At present department is having inadequate financial resource to meet the present needs for a better education system. Individual research grants for students and faculty are mainly supporting the departmental research activities. Keeping in view the awful need for increasing the financial resources to establish a library, laboratories and computer facilities, tThe HEC has approved a project for strengthening the department. This project will prove beneficial in improving the quality of education and research. Standard 8-2: There must be an adequate number of high quality graduate students, research assistants and Ph.D. students. The department offers admission annually to graduate and M.Sc. Hons students. However Ph.D. admission are usually offered in each semester.
Most of the students were satisfied with the level of supervision. The students had access to the available sophisticated equipments. The students have access to scientific literature through central laboratory. Some students requested provision of computers.
123
Some students argued that equipments relating molecular and biochemical techniques should be made available in the department to carry out biochemical analysis of cereals, toxicological study of insecticides and biosystematics study of insects.
Standard- 8.3: Financial resources must be provided to acquire and maintain Library holdings, laboratories and computing facilities. Although administration provides adequate financial resources, yet there is need to increase budget to carry out advance level research.
124
Department also rendered its technical input in designing and development of courses curriculum. Observing the required terms and conditions all pre-requisites were made available. Periodic examinations were conducted as per schedules given by the Controller Exams and all 125
of the academic schemes were prepared strictly keeping the given timeline. The number of courses along with their titles and credit hours for each semester, their course contents for different degree programs were fully planned and finalized. The level of their efficacy also falls between satisfactory and highly satisfactory rank. This report also indicates the available facilities and bottlenecks both in the field research and education. Presently, through an HEC funded project, facilities both for quality research and education are being developed at department level. This development will help both students and faculty members in attaining stipulated targets in an efficient manner. Proper measures have been adopted to train students in effective communication and motivation skill, organizing meetings and tutorials, conducting field visits, hunting employment and effective interaction with professionals and farming community.
In addition to that procedures and practices set forth by the HEC and the university are fully observed during different processes involved in admission, registration, recruitment policy, delivery of material, academic requirement and performance evaluation etc. To update the knowledge of the faculty members and improve their skills, training institutions at national and international level must be getting in touch with. In this regard a varied level of information was gathered but within satisfactory level (> 50%). Bottlenecks incase of availability of infrastructure, library facility, and class room/laboratory equipment were also identified; thus institutional support in this regard can play a pivotal role in streamlining the sustained development of the institution.
