The second seminar was conducted in the month of July 2008 in coordination with Career Launcher on the various techniques necessary for equipping students to face the interview  which included presentation on

1) Resume Writting

Approximately 500 students attended the said program. The speakers Mr. Amit Deshmukh, Mr. D'Souza and Mr. Dipanjan Das were instrumental in giving  an effective lecture added with power point presentation on 'Dos and Dont's' of resume writting which was followed by group discussion sessions. Mock interviews were conducted to make the students aware of the challenges that they would face in actual interview.

This seminar was thoroughly appreciated by one and all. The feedback from the students was taken who reported the seminar to be of immense value to them and they were more confident to face the  future.

A brief introduction was given on various entrance tests like GRE, GMAT, TOEFL, IELTS, ETC. The speaker also informed all about the financial assistance available from the banks to pursue higher education.

The ongoing recession and slowdown in the various industries had an overall impact on our campus placement and no campus placement could be undertaken in the current year.

Much needs to be done to make the students competitive to face the challenges of the world but we are confident to face the same with the guidance of our able Principal who has always been our strength in guiding through the storm water. We would formally like to place on record our sincere thanks to our Principal Dr. Mrs. S.A. Singh, our Vice Principals Dr. Padmini Murti and Prof. Bhat who supported our activities. We take this opportunity to thank them formally for the same. It would not have been possible to carry on various activities of the Placement Cell without active cooperation from Ms. Gayatri Kumar our placement secretary. I would also like to place on record sincere thanks to Ms. Gayatri and other Students Council members who have contributed directly or indirectly to the activities of the Placement Cell.

News Flash (Breaking News!)

Deven Khandekar goes to Japan Through Student Exchange Programme! (in his own words!)

Hi friends! My name is Deven Khandekar studing in our college in S.Y.B.A. ‘C’ division. I just want to share one good news with you. I got 100% scholarship for going to Japan through Student Exchange Programme.

Actually I am a “Priest” by profession. After completing my 5 years course in “Paurohitya” from “Gurukul.” I really wanted to do something different. Then I decided to learn Japanese language. Specifically Japanese because I heard a lot about Japanese script and people and their never to give up attitude.

Japanese language have 3 scripts 1) Hiragana  2) Katakana  3) Kanji

Hiragana is used only for original Japanese words, katakana for Roman words and kanji means picture language.

I truly believe that if we want to learn any language just try to use it from basic level when we start to speak any foreign language, we are not only getting meaning of that but also we can understood their feelings; expression and the beauty of language. Passing the examination and good scores are important but they never improve your speaking skills. For conveying our feelings we have to apply the language.

I learned Japanese from many teachers but specially I want to thank Hamami Sensei means (Madam). Beshyo sensei, Sarita Sensei and Gokhale Sensei without them I would not have improved my self.

In one month duration program I will stay at Kansai University in Osaka . I will visit  many places like Kyoto - the cultural city Toktyo, the capital city of Japan Hiroshima and Nagasaki , the heritage city and many museums library, festivals and ceremonies.

I will learn there how to express language more fluently, their lifestyle and their world class famous caligraphy, Origami, Ikebana and Judo.

I am a representative of India . Maharashtra and specially Mumbai so I will tell them about oun Indian culture, family and education system, the difference between Urban and rural lifestyle.

So friends now time to leave but if you have any kind of queries regarding Japanese or Paurohitya without hesitation contact me. Sayanora.
