“Our goal is to provide a nurturing environment that promotes both academic success and personal growth. The Freshman Orientation is an essential part of this process, ensuring that our students feel supported and ready to make the most of their educational journey.”
Echoing this sentiment, Dr B B Nath, director of MIE-SPPU Institute of Higher Education, stressed the importance of fostering a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere. “Our orientation programme is a wonderful opportunity for new students to connect with their peers, meet faculty members, and get a sense of the vibrant campus life at MIE-SPPU.
