Student
activity
Community and club activities define an educational
institute of this nature, and the first few batches at Praxis have the
unique opportunity to fashion the culture and fabric of 'life at
Praxis.' The members of the core faculty at Praxis bring to the table
their experiences as students of quality institutes and then as
teachers but the onus of creating an identity remains with the student
community.
The students of Praxis have participated in
building the Praxis commune with vigor and enthusiasm. Emphasis is
placed not only on the development of the key skills but also on extra
curricular activities that contribute significantly to one's
development. They have formed clubs in the areas of marketing, human
resources, information technology, finance, strategy, operations,
entrepreneurship with a view to providing platforms to the students to
interact, experiment and discover...
These clubs facilitate the development, both
personal and professional, of all its members and prepare them to
contribute meaningfully to any field they choose to be a part of. The
clubs organize various paper presentations, panel discussions,
debates, book reviews and aid active student-industry interface by
virtue of workshops and lectures by industry experts. These activities
provide the students with opportunities for self expression that help
them emerge as well rounded individuals.
Social
perspective
Concern for the environment and the society to which one belongs is an
important part of education. Inculcating this in a student is the responsibility of any
academic institute and Praxis is no exception.
In keeping with the philosophy of the institute, the
students have formed a social activities club - Abhipraya - empowering
people to empower others.
Organizing literacy drives and environmental
awareness programs are some of the initiatives undertaken by Abhipraya.
Working with NGOs give students an insight into the reality faced by the
economically and the socially disadvantaged sections of the society.
The experiences offer learning that is beyond the
curriculum and is essential for their holistic development. Nothing can
give Praxis more satisfaction than the students giving back to the
society more than what they got from it.
