How does the curriculum of DD College ensure industrial practice?

“Attract industrialists to campus and implement programs based on industry”

My opinion is that making the course curriculum industry-oriented is a big challenge. The highly experienced industrialist has more knowledge than a pure academician. Academicians are following theory whereas Industrialists are to invent a product. Institutions are sending the students and staff to visit an Industry to gather knowledge. Campus develop the system to attract industrialists to visit colleges to gather knowledge. We would like to see university programs able to keep up with the needs of the industry. It is a challenge at the university level for faculty. Objectives of education in university differ from the industry. The concerns of the industry address the current need. I think that collaboration in curriculum development may be limited. It is always good to provide internship programs that allow students to be aware of current development in the industry. We can encourage students on more industrial internships, in commerce-related fields, computer science, agriculture. Moreover, we send students to related companies for industrial experience. The seminars, workshops, and faculty development programs are periodically conducted. Hence, a curriculum designed as an industry- oriented by the university provides a better platform for the students. 

How do you guide students to survive in a competitive scenario?

“Elevating students' skills and exploring them in the real world”

Students in the classroom need to study hard to settle in life. Each student develops hard work to attain good marks. Creating interest in the subject, engaging them to follow class seriously, asking them questions in between, conducting quizzes, class tests, and giving prizes improve competitive spirit in students. Encourage the students to learn, perform, and compete in their way. Most teachers are role models to students. Teachers can demonstrate to students education seriously. It helps improve their life in the future. A student needs to know goals, objectives, Strengths, Weaknesses, be resourceful and take actual actions to compete in the outside world. The student has to write the tests and attend viva-voce examinations. However, the competitive and intellectual spirits of students can be improved by interaction, individual interests and special abilities and focus attention on interests. I think rather than encouraging competition among students better encourages self-development. We should teach them how to collaborate and complement each other to be able to survive in this fast-paced era.
