Holkar Science College hosts seminar on Career Opportunities in Social Sector

Indore (Team Newsbuddy). The Department of Botany at Holkar Science College, Indore in collaboration with Azim Premji University, organized a one-day seminar on career opportunities in the social sector.

There is a lack of awareness among students regarding employment opportunities in the social sector, despite their inclination toward social service.

The keynote speakers for the seminar were Rahul Mukhopadhyay and Chandrakant Jayashree Arun Kumar from Azim Premji University. They emphasized the role of a good social worker in society, and their contribution to national development, education, and social awareness. They also provided valuable insights into social sector courses, employment opportunities, and research prospects. Additionally, they informed students about various fellowship programs available for economically weaker students to support their education.

The session concluded with an interactive Q&A session, where the speakers addressed all student queries. Dr. Sanjeeda Iqbal also shared key insights on education and career opportunities in the social sector.
The event commenced with Saraswati Vandana, followed by the traditional presentation of plants to the esteemed guests as a token of respect. Dr. Anamika Jain, Principal of the College, extended her best wishes to the students and emphasized the importance of such seminars to ensure continued expert guidance for the students’ bright future.

The faculty members of the Botany Department played a crucial role in organizing and executing the seminar successfully, making it an enriching experience for all participants.
