                   2.1.6  Has  the  College  conducted  any  analysis  of  demand  ratio  for  the  various
                   programs offered by the College? If so, indicate significant trends explaining the
                   reasons for increase/decrease.

                    Yes, the College has analyzed the demand for various courses. It was found that for a
                   couple  of  years,  undergraduate  basic  science  courses  had  a  lower  demand  when
                   compared  to  social  sciences.  Commerce  was  introduced  in  2015-16  and  has  seen
                   heavy  rush  for  admissions.  The  reason  behind  this  rush  was  not  hard  to  find.  The
                   College waits for the Common Entrance Test results to be announced before filling
                   the seats for the Science courses. Of late, the situation has improved as the College
                   has begun to get good students even  before the Common Entrance Test results are
                   announced. The demand for B. Sc. Computer Science (PMC) is an exception. There is
                   a good demand for all Social Sciences courses. The high demand for EJP, CPE, B.
                   Com and professional courses such as B.A. Visual Communication, B. Voc. Visual
                   Media  and  Filmmaking  and  B.  Voc.  Digital  Media  and  Animation  is  due  to  the
                   professional nature of courses and also because it targets those students who do not
                   have any interest in other courses. This is presented in Table 2.3 andin Chart 2.1.
