A student’s life after 12th standard is full of choices when it comes to building a career, thus stranded in a crossroad they are full of dilemma. Which course or which college to choose is one of the toughest decisions one had to take. Again, lucrativeness of the career and job prospects also plays an important role in decision making. This crucial phase affects their life many years down the line. Therefore, with the vast increase in the number of career options available nowadays, students need to figure out what all are the courses available, which colleges provide which courses, which field suits them the best among all the fields they are good at, how much it all cost, what about the future prospects, etc. Students need to evaluate their interests, skills, strengths, potentials, advantages and weaknesses. Some students already decide their careers even before they enter class 10 which might not be the best career for them as they are not exposed to and are unaware of the other opportunities out there, thus missing out what would actually have been best suited for them. Many follow the herd mentality influenced by their peers and simply follow trends. Just because someone else took the course or their parents want them to take up a course, students should not go for it. Choosing the right career is very important for an individual. An individual spends a considerable amount of time doing his job, so loving one’s work becomes important for personal and professional satisfaction and happiness. Some follows their line of interest even though they came from a different academic career.
At such a turning point, education fair comes as a help and rescue from all such dilemmas. Education fair represents one of the most efficient ways of meeting large numbers of renowned Institutions and Universities which assists students through their representatives in choosing the right field. Delegates from Top Universities will be present, for ON –THE – SPOT Offers, interactions, counseling and admission. Student queries about courses, facilities, placements, activities, hostel, scholarships, loans etc., will be fully acknowledged. Reference materials regarding programs, admission procedures, etc would be displayed. Basically, the purpose of such education fair is to,
-
