I. CAREER PROJECT (CP)

1. Rationale of the project


It is seen that students who do not gain admission to degree program in medicine,
management, engineering or architecture which are more popular, feel directionless
when they enter the undergraduate degree program. The Career Project aims at students
gaining information about the alternative careers that can be pursued after graduation. It
is expected that the information about various career options are presented in the form
of the charts, brochures and short talk and become the resource material of a CAREER
GUIDANCE CLUB.

2. Purpose
1. To help a student to find out information about a career before undertaking it.
2. To enable a student to learn the interview technique and method of collecting
information.
3. To teach a student how to prepare materials for the dissemination of information
collected.
