Department of Physical Education started teaching Application course in Physical Education for B.A.P 3rd year, from the year 2009. The name of the paper then was ‘Fitness, Aerobics and Gym Operations’. This has now transitioned into the Generic Elective Paper* in Physical Education for Honours courses in Semester-I, II, III and IV respectively.
*Since a syllabus change is currently in the process, we are teaching the earlier version of the same.
Student Sports Council
A Student Sports Council has been an integral part of the Department since the last two decades. It was envisaged that this would serve four purposes.
The council comprises a Sports President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, Joint Secretaries, Creative Team, and Editors for Ablaze-the departmental magazine. The President is elected by all the sportspersons. The person who loses the Presidential fight becomes the Vice-President generally (not mandatory) and the other members are selected through self-nominations and a rigorous interview process by a panel of Physical Education teachers and former Student council members. The duly-formed council helps administer various responsibilities related to sports events. They are instrumental in the department organizing any event and shoulder important duties during the event. The council functions under the guidance of the teachers of the department.
The following responsibilities are looked after by the Council in consonance with the teachers:
