What are the best practices in the program you are doing?

As the HOD of EEE at Sri Sivani College of Engineering, I’ll focus on the student's career. Along with my team members, I make sure the students are industry-ready. Additionally, we prepare students and teach them how to crack placements by giving training in communication and practical knowledge rather than theoretical knowledge. In our college, we focus not on results but on what the student gains.

How do you tend to build an industry connection with the program?

Nowadays, the industry requires people or employees who are experienced rather than freshers who do not have any work experience. So, we focus on giving our graduating students work experience. We send them for industry visits and make them observe how the industries work and what they do in the industries. We also make students attend seminars, conferences and workshops to interact with professionals and experts, which will be helpful for their careers.
