(1) Contributor Personality Development Program (3150004):

 

 

Rationale:

 The Contributor Program aims to accomplish the following outcomes in the lives of students–

• Improve the employability of students by giving them the right work ethic and thinking that employers are looking for.

• Build their confidence with which they can go into any job and contribute meaningfully.

• Improve their ability to engage better in the workplace and to be able to handle the challenges that come up there.

• Build their career-worthiness and help them develop into future-ready contributors with ability to navigate a career in a volatile, changing world.

• Widen their choices of career and success, so that they are able to open up more opportunities for themselves and take up unconventional career pathways.

• Enable them to recognize how they, as technical professionals, can participate and make a positive contribution to their communities and to their state.

Towards this goal, the Contributor Program has been designed to awaken and strengthen students from within, in terms of building positive self-esteem, increasing their confidence level and I-can attitude, improving their aspirations, giving them new methods of thinking, building their cognitive capacities, exposing them to the skills and practices associated with being contributors in the workplace (not mere employees).

The Program content is also designed to expose students to real-world workplace scenarios and sensitize them to some of the challenges faced in society around them, especially in the local communities around them and in their own state of Gujarat.

The Contributor Program syllabus has been evolved and fine-tuned over several years,

(a) to address the changing need and contemporary challenges being faced by industry and what employers of today are looking for in the people they hire and

(b) by working extensively with universities and students building an appreciation of their challenges and concerns. At the core, the program is guided by the higher ideas and principles of practical Vedanta in work.
