Any suggestions you would like to give to the current youth?
“Dream big and work hard to achieve your goals”
Those of you who are students or aspiring youth should be more committed and focused on your goals since nothing comes easy. Make your dreams a reality by working hard and bringing big ideas. To be successful, you need both theoretical as well as practical knowledge.
What are some plans that you’re currently designing for the students?
“Exchange of faculty and students, placements with foreign institutes”
The placements we have right now are satisfactory, but we have moved forward with a proposal for foreign institute placements, faculty exchanges, and student exchanges. Our current focus is on training students in the industries. We have tie-ups with many Pharmaceuticals industries, where faculties work for a couple of months and transfer their knowledge to the students. With the international MOUs and tie-ups, we are strengthening our placements and learning skills. Foreign industries also provide us with research projects and consultation.
