Social Responsibilities

Every individual has a place to fill in the world and is important in some respect whether he/she chooses to be so or not.

This is often being pointed out that 21st century education is going to be in many waysdifferent from what it used to be in the past. Experts have argued that learners will have to develop an ability to be able to unlearn, relearn and then realign themselves according to needs of the society particularly in a country like India. The idea of students and social responsibility is important to reflect as we have successfully implemented the right to education for over a decade now and created a robust system of education with millions of School level and thousands of higher education institutions.

Community related programs /activities are encouraged in SPW Polytechnic to impart awareness in rural environment.

Industrial Visits

The industrial visit is considered one of the most tactical methods of teaching. It provides students with an opportunity to learn practically through interaction, working methods and employment practices. Visiting a company gives students a practical perspective on the world of work, it gives them exposure to current work practices as opposed to possibly theoretical knowledge being taught at college.

Industrial visits are an essential part of the academic curriculum, with a view of getting insight regarding the internal working environment of a company and how a company functions, as well as useful information related to the practical aspects of the educational course which cannot be visualized in lectures. The objective of the Industrial Visit is to help students gain first hand information regarding functioning of the Industry Which presents the students with opportunities to plan, organize and engage in active learning experiences both inside and outside the classroom.

Being a part of interactive learning, such educational visits give students a major exposure to real working environments along with a practical perspective of a theoretical concept relevant to their domain. In addition to that, industrial visits bridge the widening gap between theoretical learning and practical exposure by giving students the first-hand exposure to identify the inputs and outputs for different business operations and processes performed at the workplace.

Intending to go beyond classroom learning, the industrial tours contribute a lot in holistic student development by letting students learn about the current trends in the market, the future scenario of the industry and the new technologies that are being applied in the industry.
