Institutional Distinctiveness

The vision and mission of the College includes aims to provide knowledge of the highest standard and

achieve excellence. To foster the spirit of love, compassion, universal brotherhood and patriotism through

the ideal of tolerance of diversities within the society and thus fulfill the institution’s motto. To facilitate

holistic development of the younger generation, which includes physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing

moral values are taught and practiced in the College campus. The students get requisite lessons that keep

their minds ignited for seeking knowledge and are motivated to do well in every sphere of their life. One

distinctive practice of the College is the daily morning assembly which is taken up for 5 minutes before the

classes commence by the respective mentors and in the respective departments.. It is an effective

mechanism for maintaining discipline, nurturing leadership abilities, exposing hidden talents of the

students and punctuality. School of Pharmacy and School of Management, GNITC envision the journey of

the institute towards the development of technical excellence among the students to make them globally

competent graduates. Institute provides conducive environment to facilitate the educational and technical

excellence among students and provide environment inculcate the human and professional values. The

Institute continues to introduce new methodologies and enable the use of ICT in all walks of the institution.

Modes, methods, concepts and contents of classroom behavior is changing, which made the teachers to

adapt the novel tools of teaching methodology involving computer assisted learning tools. Web and mobile

based application for practice test of GPAT/GATE/CAT/GMAT and other competitive examinations. This

will make the students to prepare for examination effectively making most of the use of time. Experiment

and research methodologies involving the use of sophisticated instrument and software help to cope up

with technical advancement in the industry and gain the excellence amongst students.

The institution is keen to bring about changes in the current market trend in

the engineering education, as the receptivity is not quite encouraging, we have the objective of bringing the

current twelfth standard school out goers to instill the scope for engineering courses, to elaborate the

engineering specialization to the aspiring young minds, to conduct the orientation program to discuss with

industry experts. These objectives are achieved through programs like Diploma to Degree (D2D), School to

Degree (S2D) orientation program, Let’s Make Engineering Simple (LMES) orientation, and training

program. One major challenging issue in the current education scenario is the slowdown in the engineering

admission in general. The advances in the particular fields of science and technology are growing and

talented graduates are lacking in the job market. The need for the hour is the engineering graduates with a

mix of strong technical and professional skills to face new age requirements. The program emphasizes on

the congregation of school out goers to take-up their career in the engineering and technology stream. The

potential engineers are given an eye-opener program to interact with the industry stalwarts and the

expertise education counselors to give the orientation about the engineering and technology-related jobs,

advance studies and research opportunities for the engineering aspirants in the national and international

perspective.

student and as a member of the society. And accordingly, the respective mentors try their best to offer their

guidance and if necessary, they are also referred to the College Counselor.
