What are the key factors that keep you connected with the education sector?

“The ability to interact with the younger generation and exchange knowledge”

I am very interested in moving with the youngsters and their community. We can make many changes with those people. If the attitude of a youngster is very good, he or she becomes a very good part of society. The role of an academician has been fruitful and very positive.

What is your philosophy of leadership? 

“To lead from the front and be a passionate colleague”

Leadership for me is not just exercising power and authority. It is about accomplishing the objectives and goals of the institute by playing a responsible role in the organization. Also, by emphasizing more on team spirit so that the members of the team could handle their responsibility. I believe in a democratic leadership style in which all the team members are equally involved in all the decisions and activities. 

What do you think should be the institute’s top priority over the next five or ten years?

“Imparting quality education to the students has been my utmost priority”

What are the unique factors of the program that you are offering in your institute?

“Educational programs need to be multidisciplinary to align with modern needs”

The industries, nowadays, look for candidates having 360-degree exposure. The outside world evaluates the students by their creativity, innovative ideas, skills and attitude, as well as the ability to communicate with openness and tolerance. To foster this, the students are trained with a focus on their technical development, soft skills, IT, life skills and communication. We help students to learn through their strengths and interests. Students are engaged even beyond the classroom for their holistic development.
