1.Pre- Teaching Sessions at the beginning of every semester.
Pre-teaching sessions, conducted at the beginning of every semester, serve as vital preparatory sessions aimed at providing students with foundational knowledge and essential skills necessary for success in their upcoming courses. These sessions typically encompass a variety of activities and discussions designed to orient students, set academic expectations, and foster a conducive learning environment.
Description of what pre-teaching sessions may entail:
2. Course Audit every month
A monthly course audit is a systematic review process conducted to assess the progress and effectiveness of ongoing courses.
3. Academic Advisory Board
Academic Advisory Board consists of Program matter experts who provide guidance, expertise, and innovative pedagogy and continuous improvement within the academic.
4. Students feedback at the end of every semester
Student feedback serves as a valuable tool for assessing and improving the effectiveness of teaching and learning practices, fostering a culture of continuous improvement, and enhancing overall academic quality.
5. Organizing Expert talks and Workshops
6. Industrial visits and Study tours
Mentorship (Mentor- Mentee)
A mentorship program for students is designed to provide invaluable guidance, support, and opportunities for personal and professional development within the field.
Ratio of Mentor: Mentee is 1:35
Academic Advisors (for Electives and Minors)
Academic Advisors play a crucial role in guiding students through the selection, planning, and completion of elective courses and minors within their academic programs.
Our placement process is designed to make recruitment at NUV easy and flexible to optimise your success.
