STUDENT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
PERSONALITY AND PSYCHOLGICAL WELL-BEING

As a part of student development, we have been conducting sessions for students that focus on enhancing the psychological well-being of students since that is the pre-cursor for academic or any other development. For example, If students are taught about the impact of ‘being proactive’ on their lives, they will spend their student years making the most of their skills and time and will be able to reach closer to their potential.

Instead of waiting for students to get stressed and experience negative thoughts and feelings, students are armed with techniques and knowledge that will help them in living a healthy lifestyle. Students are encouraged to exercise by showing them the research about how physical activity enhances our overall life and helps us become successful. The focus of all the sessions is to enhance well-being and positive feelings among students.

Students who are struggling with academics or personal life and need assistance, are encouraged to sign up for counseling sessions as needed. The typical problems that are seen range from relationship issues to adjustment and academic pressure. Students are guided and counseled in a supportive manner with the goal that they can become independent in facing struggles and stress with resilience in the future.

Students are also helped to identify areas that they need to work on with the goal of starting their professional life, and they are encouraged to look out for resources to become proficient at that skill.
