Download Mentor Mentee Scheme

“My mentor said, ‘Let’s go do it,’ not ‘You go do it.’ How powerful when someone says, ‘Let’s!’”

— Jim Rohn

Mentoring is an innovative approach to assisting students in enhancing their learning and leadership skills, so pushing them to pursue future career advancement. In light of this, the college offers a mentorship scheme in which faculty members receive training on the mentor system and meet with students on a daily basis to listen to their concerns and offer advice on their general personality development. The Student mentoring system is implemented in the College, with the Teachers participating in the mentoring process. Depending on the programme and division, each mentor is assigned responsibility for more than thirty students. Each mentor maintains a mentor diary in which challenges and solutions of mentees are recorded. The mentor has outlined responsibilities to care for all mentees, including providing them with career counselling, personal counselling, academic help, remedial coaching, and on-demand support. Under the mentor mentee scheme, the institution allots mentoring work to the alumni along with faculties. This helps in effective working of the mentor mentee scheme.
