The Department of Lifelong Learning and Extension [DLLE] (known earlier as Department of Adult and Continuing Education and Extension) established on October 12, in the Year 1978 and has been recognized as a statutory Department of the University of Mumbai since 1994 to promote a meaningful and sustained rapport between the Universities and the community. The DLLE seeks to facilitate the sensitization of students to socio-cultural realities. Degree College Students take up extension work projects related to social issues, for which they are awarded 10 additional marks in their final examinations on successful completion of 120/240 hours of work, and the submission of the project report in time.
Our College offers five projects of DLLE for learners of degree college, namely Annapurna Yojana (APY), Industry Orientation Project (IOP), Population Education Club ( PEC), Survey of Women’s Status ( SWS) and Career Project (CP). Students who enroll for these extension work projects perform various activities for social awareness based on various issues/problem in the society such as Save Food, Save Water, Save the Girl Child, Pollution Control, Global warming, Dowry deaths, Waste management and many more. Students are creating awareness about these social problems through various activities like Rally, Street Play, Poster Making, Survey, Elocutions, etc.
