COUNSELING DEPARTMENT
College can be an exciting time of life. For many students, this is a time of new challenges as they learn to balance schedule, academics, work, and activities with leisure activities, relationships, and quiet time. But for many students, it can also bring about common emotional challenges. Counseling department organizes awareness programs on various issues of health: mental and physical as well as hygiene. Health education covers the continuum from disease prevention and promotion of optimal health. Medical camps are the initial step in a great scheme of progress which involves the improvement of not only the physical but the mental and moral develop¬ment of the children.
The Counseling Department of DAVIM also focuses to give students comprehensive pieces of advice on career, courses, time management and jobs which enables them to have an informed choice on what to do after the completion of course. The department organizes sessions that involve career guidance where students are advised on which courses to do and which jobs to expect when one does a particular course. Interactive sessions are organized with students to develop problem solving skills which to an extent help them deal with particular issues surrounding their lives. They can channel their skills through guidance given by the counseling department. Counseling and guidance is needed to help organize ones thoughts and ideas on decisions. It can boost the morale and confidence and give new directions to the students which will be beneficial for the whole society.
