CPTC
Career Counseling, Placement & Tracing Cell (CPTC)
Message from CPTC coordinator
Career advancement is an ongoing process. It’s about changing one’s life, changing one’s surroundings, and making continual decisions regarding one’s career and life. The CPTC imparts information and skills to help students make better professional and life decisions in the future, rather than only to aid with immediate ones. As the unit coordinator, I will assist students in understanding themselves and the world of work so that they may make appropriate professional, educational and life decisions.
