Hi again,
Well....today i am doing some brain storming and research in the direction of people mind sets towards careers and secondly, providing employment opportunities to students at the college level.
Goa is one of the well educated states in India . However it is sad that in a place like Goa, the general notion in the community is that Engineering and Medicine are the only two streams considered as professional careers; rest all professions are considered mediocre and useless.
Once we have such a mind set towards other professions, the students who are a part of our society and perusing other professions ( either Hotel Management, BSC, BA and BCOM , Bachelors in Fine arts and architecture) consider their professions as inferior and not worth doing.
Hence it is very important that we should change our thinking towards other professions, because every profession is rewarding and fulfilling if you are interested in it.
Secondly creating opportunities of employment in colleges and working towards bridging the gap between colleges and industries should be the mission critical statement for all the colleges in Goa. Industries should also try and invest time and effort in helping colleges build confident individuals by having programs like work shops, internships seminars and on a larger scale MOUs with colleges. This would be part of the corporate social responsibility of the companies.
There should be Career and employment department in every college that would provide infrastructure and facilities for such programs between college and industries to be implemented.
Are we all ready to start this happening?
please spare a thought.....we need winds of change sooner then later!!!
Thanks ...Ill be back! :)
