Students Mentoring and Counseling Services

Students’ counseling is an important regular activity in the college which is aimed at fostering and nurturing students to excel in academics and to help them for their overall development. This activity provides support and guidance for the academic excellence and other issues being faced by the students. Counseling is not about giving advice but offers a space to discuss about their difficulties and thinking about future prospects. Students from one semester are divided into two groups and a faculty member is assigned as a counselor in each group.

Each faculty counselor is allotted 20-25 students and the counselor arranges two counseling sessions in each semester. This helps to develop a coherent student-counselor relationship and students can interact freely with the counselor to discuss about academic excellence and future prospects. Students are encouraged to express their views and suggestions for academic and other infrastructural improvements in the department and college. The Principal and Head of the Departments take necessary actions to implement their valid suggestions.

The counselor collects all the details pertaining to the students and keeps a record of attendance of all the courses of the counseling group. Time to time, the attendance reports are send to the parents via ERP software. The report comprises of theory attendance, practical / tutorial attendance. A counselor of a particular group takes care of the overall development of the students of that group from semester 3 to 8. Parents can contact the counselor at any time. The counselors will arrange meeting with parents whenever they find any need such as the attendance is excessively low and poor performance in the examinations etc.. Principal, Academic Dean and Head of the Departments take necessary actions for the suggestions / issues raised during the counseling sessions.
