Industrial visits are an integral part of   Education and it is this experience that help students gain first hand information regarding functioning of various industries. Global Industry Visits enables international exposure to countries emerging as economic powerhouses that adds tremendously to the understanding of business practices among students and helps them in shaping their careers.

Global Industry Visits aim  to provide exposure to students who will gain knowledge and first-hand opportunity to visit industries, universities, manufacturing units

The main objective of the global industry visit  is to provide a unique experience to the students and exchange and share good practices which could be replicated to improve the efficiency, production and competency in their respective field of study.

This presents the student with opportunities to plan, organize and engage in active learning experiences outside the classroom.

"Excursions" are mostly in the form of industrial visits organized to help students understand the manufacturing aspects of jewellery trade. They also get first hand information from the industry stalwarts about the functioning of the large scale units.


Fun excursions like picnics are also organized to encourage social bonding and provide opportunities for the students to interact with each other outside the classrooms
