“Interactions with domain-specific professionals, internships and field trips”

We provide additional possibilities for our students to gain industry experience and training. We motivate them to participate in industrial training in form of internships. This helps them gain industry-relevant skills. We strive to arrange as many industrial trips as possible in the surrounding area for the students so that they can get a broad range of knowledge. We also invite industry professionals to conduct guest lectures and seminars so that students may learn about current events in the domain.

What valuable advice would you like to give the students for a prosperous career?

“Positivity and self-dependency are essential to building a good career” 

In this competitive era, it is very important for a student to self introspect. And identify their areas of interest. Students should then work to develop expertise in the area. Students should always hold on to hope in the face of life's challenges and avoid negative thinking.
