“Important to understand the industry needs by staying connected to the sector”

I don’t consider myself a leader yet, but I try to act as a bridge between the management and faculty. While I listen and consolidate the suggestions, I bring alignment in the way we want to work and achieve our defined goals.

As an HoD, my responsibility is that the faculty understands the management point of view also. This helps in the smooth functioning of the department. I am also supposed to handle the faculty concerns and involve the management at the right time.

“To incorporate maximum number of practical learning hours in the syllabus”

In my opinion, college should focus more on practical learning and go beyond theoretical knowledge. To retain the interest of students in the degree courses, students must getMr the flexibility and learning opportunities at the same time. Our teaching methodologies should evolve. Additionally, our students should get familiar with future techs like AI, ML, Big Data, BlockChain etc.
