Orientation is a much-needed program that when planned correctly can aid all participants–new students, parents, faculty, staff, administration, and current students. Orientation is designed to answer questions before they are asked and to provide solutions before problems occur. By planning appropriately and using all campus resources, orientation should relieve anxieties and prepare the new students for success.

As per the government directives students joined the program through virtual platform. The Day1 session started with the introductory speech of Ms.Shilpi Kavita,Assistant Professor. She through her introductory speech welcomed the new students for their intellectual adventure. Academics as well as extracurricular activities were presented.

The honourable Vice chairman Sir was invited to speak few encouraging words to the new member of ISM family. He by giving a strong overview of academic expectations, students were better prepared to meet the challenges of collegiate academics. Therefore, in order to give the most accurate view of an institution, there was both an academic and social component to the orientation program.

The esteemed Director, Dr. Prasanta Kumar Padhy , then expressed his cultivating ideas. He exhorted students to prefer research, entrepreneurship over on campus placement, education should be knowledge oriented rather than placement oriented. Students should try to attain overall development in sports, extra-curricular activities in addition to academics.

During orientation, students were made aware of opportunities to be socially integrated into the college culture. An academic component to orientation will give the new students the advantage they will need in making the transition from high school to college.
