Profile of Centre for  Skill Development:

             The modern world poses numerous challenges to students in the wake of globalization. Traditional graduation in Arts and Commerce has offered limited employment opportunities to students. This bitter truth must be accepted. Women are moreover the marginalized section in our male-dominated society. Women’s education has to play multiple roles of developing hard skills, soft skills and employability among women in order to make them capable of not just surviving but succeeding in the modern world. Our college, established with the precise aim of developing empowered women, therefore, feels it imperative to introduce skill development as an attempt at value addition of the girl students.

             We have set up a centre for Skill Development in our college to enable the development of all round personality of our girl students. This involves introduction of Skill Development courses of short duration which will aim at developing various aspects of their personality like language proficiency, employment generation skills, soft skills, skills that will develop their social awareness, skills that will enable them to have a healthy body and mind etc.

             The Professor-in-Charge, Centre for Skill Development will monitor the functioning of the centre. The Centre shall organize various courses and activities throughout the year catering to the needs of the students according to the calendar.

             The significance of the initiative is evident when we realize that the government of India too has underlined the need for skill development. This is a humble attempt on our part towards women empowerment.
