5.4.1. There is a registered Alumni Association that contributes significantly to the development of the institution through financial and/or other support services.

The major objective of the Alumni Association is to foster, maintain and enhance the relationship between the Institution and Alumni. The feedback of the Alumni is important in shaping the cocurricular and placement activities of the college thereby helping in the overall development of the college.

At present the Institutional Alumni Association is engaging the Alumni in the conduct of guest lectures, Technical talks and interaction with juniors. This is achieved through the Alumni cell and the Training and the Placement cell the interactions provide a clear picture to the junior students of what is expected out of them in various Industries. The Alumni further guide the juniors in preparation for competitive exams and higher education in Indian and Foreign Universities. A majority of the Alumni are in contact with the Students, Faculty, Administration through the online Professional platform notably LinkedIn. Their advices/ suggestions/ opinions are useful in shaping the co circular and placement activities. Some of the activities carried out by the Alumni include:

  1. A significant number of our Alumni are in Foreign countries particularly the USA and they guide the juniors in applying and registering for higher education in US Universities.
  2. Few of our Alumni are entrepreneurs and they help the juniors in placement/ Entrepreneurship activities. The notable entrepreneurs is Shalini Narella of Easystepin.
  3. Some of our Alumni are in lead positions in top MNCs of the country notably TCS, Infosys, Wipro etc. They guide the junior students in placement training / interviews.

The Alumni get togethers are places where the Institute gets first-hand information and support form the Alumni. These are to be conducted regularly but the college has conducted them only occasionally. However, it is happy to note that some Alumni (in small groups) visit the college and give beneficial suggestions/ opinions. At present the Association is not seeking any monetary assistance from the Alumni as it has not been registered as a society with the Government.

The Institute plans to conduct one Alumni meet every year to ensure the wider participation of Alumni in different activities of college for the benefit of students.
