Students Activities

SELECT Proctor Day

All the students of School of Electrical Engineering have proctors. As per the proctor

scheme each faculty takes 12-15 students to monitor and help them in their academic and

all other activities. Proctors keep contact with parents of the students and keep informing

them about the students regularly. School of Electrical Engineering organizes

SELECT Proctor Day in every month.This is one of the successful events of the

school where the faculty members, students and parents interact with each other. They

discuss and identify students problems and work for the possible solutions. Our

Professors provide valuable suggestions and guidance to the students regarding

placement, examinations and extracurricular activities during the SELECT proctor day.

Finally, all the reports of SELECT proctor day go to the Director of the School and the

Director convenes a meeting of Faculty members to work on the issues identified from

the reports. SELECT proctor day has become very popular among the students.

Professional Societies

School of Electrical Engineering students are actively involved with professional society

activities and frequently organize technical events round the year. Here is the list of

professional societies where our students are involved.
