The research study shows some suggestions of the students of constituent colleges for making more effective RAWE programme about “Stationary facilities should be provided to the students during RAWE” (65.00%) and “Proper lunch should be provided during orientation programme” (63.33%) and in case of affiliated colleges students gave suggestions about “Stipend should be provided” (100.00%) and “Proper laboratory should be established for practical experiments” (88.33%).
