The Student Service Directorate, headed by the Director of Student Service, coordinates and administers welfare services to all students. We liaise with the various directorates and other service departments in the institute to help manage student’s activities within and outside the institute. The Directorate also coordinates all extra-curricular activities for students to successfully nurture physiological, mental and spiritual health to pursue their academic programmes. The following facilities are provided by the Office of the Director of Student Services: student accommodations (Hostels), games and sports, worship, and student counselling in various problem and career guidance. The Director of Students Services also assists the Deputy Rector - Administration in student disciplinary matters.
