T
he Akal College of Arts and Social Sciences was established to promote the ideals enunciated by our founder Saint, Sant Attar Singh Ji. He said,
“Students must engage themselves in right earnest to the task of getting the required knowledge, both spiritual and worldly, so as to become the messengers of peace and spiritual brotherhood.
Imbued with love and compassion, they should serve the downtrodden and the neediest of the needy and thereby help in establishing permanent peace in the world.”
All the four departments under ACA&SS have well-defined and articulated learning objectives, which are important because they provide students with a clear purpose to focus their learning
efforts and direct their choice of instructional activities. The departments offer a dynamic, interactive education environment that engages students in the learning process. The college also
provides constructive feedback to promote student self-assessment and motivation through a student-mentor system.
The college ensures course mastery and student success through clear learning outcomes, detailed instruction, and assessments for all courses, supported by a language lab.
Technology is used effectively to expand access to learning through various modes of instruction.
