It gives me great pleasure to bring this edition of the college newsletter to
you. Academic excellence is what we aim for and we have big plans afoot to
achieve it! All the activities conducted across different domains clearly
indicate that the college is progressing in the right direction.
Creating better human beings is our motto. Education is not the act of
acquiring knowledge through books alone but the act of transforming
students into responsible citizens. Our focus is to empower students with
sound knowledge, wisdom, and experience at the academic level and in the
highly competitive global industrial market. To make the students industry
ready, the institution seeks to impart both soft and professional skills to
them through its unique approach to education.
I can say without a doubt that we have exceeded expectations in each
activity that we embraced and we have stood together in facing the
challenges in realizing quality education. We trust that achievement is
unavoidable with foresightedness, firm assurance, hard work and
discipline.
