STUDENT TRAINING

The College places great emphasis on personality development of the students. By the end of the third year every young student is expected to grow into a confident, competent and compassionate individual.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY & CITIZENSHIP

 The aims of the National Service Scheme may be broadly outlined as follows:

  • To be constructively involved in the needs and problems of the community, particularly the poor.
  • To instill in the student social concern for the underprivileged.
  • To create greater respect for dignity of labour through participation in manual work.
  • To train students in leadership by imparting human skills to face societal challenges.

These aims are to be realized by a wide variety of service projects selected and carried out by the students themselves under the guidance and supervision of the Programme Officer of the National Service Scheme in the College.

(ii) National Cadet Corps (NCC)

The NCC plays a vital role in moulding the character of its cadets. It lays great stress on developing qualities of leadership among the cadets and also inculcating in them the spirit of sportsmanship.

 Aims of the NCC
  • To create a force of disciplined and trained human power which provides assistance to the country in case of emergency.
  • To develop leadership, comradeship, character, spirit of sportsmanship and the ideal of service.
(iii)  STARS (Stellites to Awake and Reach out to the Society)

Reach out programmes cater to diverse needs of the underprivileged in society. One of the objectives of the college being empowerment of women and children, these reach out programmes create awareness among students and sensitizes them to stark realities of life. Students also get a first hand knowledge of real-life situations and gain experience in tackling the challenges in whatever little way they can. This exposure enables them to be communicative, empathetic and humanitarian in their outlook.

Various sections of society derive solace and help in different forms from these programmes. They become articulate and confident with the motivation and stimulation given by these programmes.
