About
Us
Since
it began its journey on October 08, 1990, the UGC-Academic Staff College,
University of Calcutta, has persistently engaged itself in organizing increasing
number of Orientation Programs, Refresher Courses, Seminars and Workshops with
the objective of helping the teachers discharge their professional commitments
more effectively. Our functions have got a new dimension in the wake of the
decision to make participation in these programs mandatory for the purpose of
career advancement of teachers.

Infrastructural Facilities
Over the years UGC-ASC, CU, has built up reasonable infra-structural facilities in order to cater to the needs of our participant colleagues in OP’s and RC’s from different colleges and universities. We have a TV, and a VCR, four overhead projectors, three slide projectors, two microphones (including one cordless button microphone), two computers with internet connection and a library having about 2500 volumes.
We have two classrooms and the two office rooms, all air-conditioned. A burning problem is the lack of hostel facilities. With our existing facilities we can accommodate only a few participants at a time.
MAN-MACHINE INTERFACE LABORATORY
Over
the years UGC-ASC, CU, has built up impressive infra-structural facilities in
order to cater to the needs of our participant colleagues from different
colleges and universities. The latest addition to our infra-structural
facilities is the Man-Machine Interface
Laboratory housing state–of-art equipment and software. This will be
available for use of our colleagues very soon.
