<strong>DOON</strong> <strong>UNIVERSITY</strong>, <strong>DEHRADUN</strong><br />

Weaknesses<br />

The shortage of faculty members.<br />

Infrastructure not up to date.<br />

Library needs to be strengthened.<br />

Opportunities<br />

Being the only German language learning centre in the region, it<br />

has a tremendous potential of emerging as a leading centre of<br />

German language learning in Uttarakhand.<br />

The strategic location of the department in the Himalayan region<br />

will also provide for ample research opportunities.<br />

With the new industries coming up and the State focusing on<br />

developing its tourism industry, the department will have a lot of<br />

opportunities and can play a vital role.<br />

Challenges<br />

The limited number of faculty members and no positions for<br />

recruiting new faculty members is a serious challenge.<br />

Providing exposure to the students<br />

Lack of basic resources and research material for carrying out<br />

research<br />

52. Future plans of the department.<br />

To start more collaborative activities with other centres of German<br />

Studies in India.<br />

To establish collaboration with more Universities from Austria and<br />

Germany.<br />

School of Languages<br />
