It is time to share the strength, worth of state Technical Education with the passing out school students and aim should be to connect students, especially government school & other institutions students with the existing technical education opportunities in Punjab. With this goal, I.K.Gujral Punjab Technical University (IKGPTU) has started Student Career Counselling Campaigns on the directions of the State Technical Education Department. University started dissemination of Information about Technical Education Opportunities of Punjab in the month of April 2022 & now crossed the reach of 15 thousand students. This information was shared by Rahul Bhandari, IAS, Principal Secretary, Department of Technical Education and Industrial Training, Government of Punjab during his recent meeting with NAAC preparation monitoring teams.

Going through the statistics of the admission cell IKGPTU, Bhandari shared that the university has taken initiative to educate the Punjab Students first in this admission session. This time admission notification was also issued by the government two months before the start of admission sesion. University has started counselling sessions at Govt schools for +1 & +2 students. The task behind this campaign is to educate students and their parents about the strength of Punjab Technical Education. By addressing various issues related to admission procedures, teams are convincing students to get admissions in various technical education institutions of Punjab including state Technical Universities like IKGPTU Jalandhar-Kapurthala, MRSPTU, SBSS University Ferozpur, Sardar Beant Singh University Gurdaspur & others. Teams are guiding students to join the opportunities of technical education.
