In alignment with the National Education Policy (NEP) and the objectives of Atmanirbhar Bharat, the departments at Birsa Munda College, in collaboration with the Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC), are dedicated to the holistic development of students. This commitment focuses on enhancing skill development and increasing the Gross Enrollment Ratio. To achieve these objectives, Birsa Munda College has implemented a variety of skill development activities designed to enrich the knowledge and soft skills of students. These initiatives include Value Added Courses in the form of Grooming for Language Skills, aimed at improving communicative abilities; Inter-College Mock Parliament Competitions to foster critical thinking and public speaking; and Career Counseling to help students effectively integrate these skills into their resumes. Furthermore, life skills courses such as yoga and life-skills workshops are offered to all students, expanding job market opportunities and boosting employability. While remaining rooted to the affiliating university’s curriculum, Birsa Munda College also tries to bring in beyond-class elements that are carefully crafted to meet the practical demands of students’ future careers. Talks have already begun with potential organisations that would offer internship opportunities to our students, and eventual placement on completion of these training programmes. The college also encourages hands-on Experiential Learning through add-on courses and fieldwork, as well as Career Oriented workshops and talks. Under the guidance of IQAC, the Placement Cell has organized skill development programs in collaboration with local organizations, providing students with valuable practical experiences. Crucial to these efforts are partnerships with businesses and organizations in the skill sector, which offer mentoring sessions and guidance on developing various skills to enhance employability. Birsa Munda College also collaborates with reputable academic and health organizations, including Sumita Cancer Centre. These collaborations support a proactive and forward-thinking approach to skill development. Additionally, activities sports and yoga contribute to the mental health, physical fitness, and positive outlook of the students. Through a comprehensive range of skill-building activities, life skills courses, practical experiences, and strategic collaborations, Birsa Munda College is committed to preparing students to face future challenges. Our efforts align with the goals of the NEP and Atmanirbhar Bharat, aiming to enhance students’ employability and overall development.
