Career Orientation Day: “Taking a step forward”

On 16th November 2009, Sikkim University through Establishment of Career Counselling Cell organized “Career Orientation Day” for students. Sikkim University has a very well defined vision of attaining academic excellence and building complete individuals. Keeping this vision in mind “Career Orientation Day” was organized. This day was intended to mark a new beginning in bringing professional prospective to education at Sikkim University. There is a massive hue and cry about unemployment today when the major factor is lack of employability. The major challenge before us is extending this talent pool. How can we contribute towards this initiative? How can we make our University the epi centre of this sought after talent pool not just at a very local level but at a much larger National and Global level? read more +

Express Yourself

I feel proud to be a part of youngest university of the country. Even being the first batch of the department, I learned lot of things on microbiology. I had to attend all the lectures and really work hard. Though we could not get the all the facilities in the first two semesters, Sikkim University came up with new ideas to make up those deficiencies like arrangement with other laboratory for practicals, opportunity to interact with scientists, the professors and research scholars. It is really a new experience to me and I know this university will produce excellent students in future.

Being parent, I am glad to be part of Sikkm University and this new university is doing a great job. In fact, I had never seen a institution developing so much in a short span of time. I wish best of luck for “Sikkim University”.

On a lighter side

Two college seniors had a week of e xams coming up. They decided to party instead. Their biggest exam was on Wednesday and they showed up telling the professor that their car had broken down the night before due to a very flat tire and they needed a bit more time to study.

The professor told them that they could have another day to study. That evening, both of the boys crammed all night until they were sure that they knew just about everything.

Arriving to class the next morning, each boy was told to go to two separate classrooms to take the exam. Each boy just shrugged and went to two different parts of the building.

As each sat down, they read the first question.

"For 5 points, explain the contents of an atom."

At this point, they both thought that this was going to be a piece of cake, and answered the question with ease. Then, the test continued.

"For 95 points, tell me which tire it was."
