Career Guidance, Training and Placement Cell

The pivotal hub of any esteemed higher educational institution, the Career Guidance, Training, and Placement (CGTP) Cell plays a crucial role in shaping the professional trajectory of students. Offering comprehensive guidance and counselling, the cell empowers individuals to acquire the requisite knowledge, skills, and experiences, enabling them to identify career options, explore alternatives, and thrive in society. The CGTP Cell was initiated in the academic year 2013-14, at our college, and is committed to providing career-oriented support to students from their first year of admission to the college. The cell is committed to tailoring its efforts to address their specific needs and preparing them for successful placements in their chosen career paths.

Key Initiatives and Support Services

The CGTP Cell extends its support to UG and PG final-year students, as well as collaborating with companies at every stage of the placement process. The comprehensive approach includes pre-placement talks, written tests, interviews, and group discussions, tailored to meet the requirements of visiting companies. The cell actively creates a platform for renowned companies to identify and select talented individuals from the campus, whom they can further train for specific positions within their organizations. Mock interviews are a regular feature, helping students analyze their strengths and weaknesses through online/offline tests, group discussions/debates, and course and HR interviews.

The primary objectives of the CGTP Cell are:

• Provide career counselling and career development sessions for graduates.
• Conduct training sessions, workshops, lectures, presentations, and other events to develop career planning and employability skills for students.
• Maintain regular contact with potential employers for new job opportunities.
