Our dedicated team of career counselors has been actively providing guidance and support to students seeking career advice. Whether you are a fresh student trying to decide on a suitable career path or a graduating student planning your next steps, our counselors are here to assist you in making informed choices and creating personalized career plans.

Industry Partnerships and Job Placements

We have been working tirelessly to establish and strengthen partnerships with various industries and companies. These collaborations are aimed at creating internship and job placement opportunities for our students. Our efforts have resulted in a significant increase in the number of students securing internships and employment in their desired fields.

Workshops and Seminars

To equip our students with essential skills and knowledge for career development, we have been organizing workshops and seminars on a regular basis. Topics covered include resume writing, interview preparation, networking skills, personal branding, and entrepreneurship, among others.

Graduate tracker services

Students’ progression and achievements after graduation are tracked to help the institution to understand the impact of student-centred modularized study programs and their relevance for the labour market. Consequently, information supporting systematic improvement of courses and support services at institutional level are also tracked and archived.

Alumni Engagement

We strongly believe in the power of alumni connections and the valuable insights they can provide to current students. Through alumni engagement programs, we encourage graduates to come back and share their experiences, success stories, and advice with the next generation of students.

Career Resources

We have expanded our resources by providing access to career-related articles, job search portals, and self-assessment tools. Students can access these resources at any time to enhance their career planning and development
