Khallikote Autonomous College Berhampur Faculty

The college boasts a mix of experienced faculty members, including some from prestigious institutions like IITs and NITs, who hold master's and doctorate degrees, particularly in geology. However, there is a notable shortage of permanent faculty, with only 29 faculty members serving 4,000 students, against a requirement of 88, leading to some dependence on contractual lecturers.

The faculty-student ratio is approximately 1:6, and despite infrastructure limitations, faculty members are cooperative and help in academic and extracurricular activities, including internships. Overall, while there are highly qualified and student-friendly teachers, the faculty shortage and management issues are significant challenges.
