15. SWOC
analysis of the Department:
Strength: The strength of the department of Botany are the high
qualified faculty members and the students itself. The other strengths are the
facilities that are present in the department of Botany as instruments and
necessary equipments to perform both theory and practical classes.
Weakness: Department is lacking advanced instruments to perform
quality research of recent time.
Oppurtunity: The opportunity that the
department gets to provide the best knowledge and quality education in the
subject botany to the students and also to make the students enable to pursue
higher study and engage them to become self- sufficient in their lives.
Challenge: The challenge of the
department is to uplift the students from background community of this locality
of Amjonga and its nearby places and also economically poor students to make
them employed and skillfull.
