Career Guidance Cell (CGC) - Overview


About:
The Career Counselling and Guidance Cell in the college has been formulated to address the diverse socio-economic challenges and geographic backgrounds of the heterogeneous population of students coming to the College vis-à-vis equity of access and placement opportunities through availability of appropriate institutional support information.
In each College, curricular inputs are important to provide relevant information on courses and combinations. The conventional information system is now to be supplemented with active guidance and information technology. Now it is important to institutionalize this support to enhance the reach and scope of available opportunities for the students and prepare them for the future challenges.
To implement the above, Counselling Services are to be formalized which will enable the students to get over their social institutions, attributed to their socio-economic and cultural diversities and linguistic barriers. The career and counselling cell support to make the students confident to perform better. Counselling thus addresses both the academic and the career concerns and opportunities. Campus based interviews have become a common practice. These could be taken care of through the active liaison of the Career and Counselling Cell with the recruiting agencies and HR personnel of reputed firms.
