Student Support Cell

Overview

Student Support Centre, an integral part of the University, is a student support service intended to help students adapt and make the best of their learning environment. It is common knowledge that when students have problems that are unresolved, it reflects in their attendance, academic performance and ultimately in their personality development. The Centre therefore attempts to provide a nurturing environment wherein each student is empowered to face life challenges and move ahead to achieve their academic goals.

The Centre aims at helping students to make proper adjustments in academic pursuit and improved quality of life. The counselors motivate and support the students to regularly attend classes and to prepare for the exams systematically.

Goals

  • To establish the University campus as a student-friendly safe space.
  • To identify specific needs of the student’s community. (Academic, Personal and Career related)

  • To offer support to students in adjusting to a new environment as well as social or personal challenges that are specific to their age group and circumstances. (socialization)
  • To spread awareness about ways to cope with academic pressures that often lead to mental health difficulties, and to assist students with the academic concerns that emerge from dealing with health condition.
