• Bad impression in corporate interactions
• Deterioration of quality of students

3. Develops leadership skills
Encourage students to
take part in Inter-college

Innovation
2. Helps to develop analytical,
problem solving and decision

Encourage students to
take up certifications to
increase knowledge base

9. Each student is an ambassador of the Institute to the
outside world, so each student should be exemplary
Students have to be groomed in such a way that they
don’t just satisfy the Industry, but are the most-
sought after students in the Industry
Solutions proposed will go a long way in making
students ready for the corporate world.
These efforts need to be sustained in the long run to
maintain a healthy relationship with the recruiter.
