Motto

ENCOURAGE • EMPOWER • ENLIGHTEN
To raise awareness and give the unheard voices a place to belong.


Aim

The Equal Opportunity Cell stands as a pillar of social justice in the institution. The society works towards its commitment of creating avenues for students with disability to fulfil their potential and create awareness among the members of the institution to the needs of students with disability and under-represented sections of the society.


Scope

The scope lies in creating an atmosphere of equality with special privileges to the least advantaged groups of the educational institution. The society also focuses on the academic discourses to sensitise the college community. Extra-curricular activities are conducted to bring knowledge and awareness among the student community.


Objectives

• To be the torchbearer of creating awareness of the concept of equal opportunities to one and all; irrespective of gender, ability, socio-economic background, caste, religion or language; on the lines of the UGC guidelines.
• To oversee the effective implementation of policies and programmes for disadvantaged groups, to provide guidance and counselling concerning academic, financial, social and other matters and to enhance the diversity within the campus.
