CAREER PLANNING
NEED OF
THE HOUR
Students'
Needs
Choosing a career is the
most crucial decision of anyone's life as it determines how he will spend
your life, what you will be known as, what your lifestyle will be like, how
much you will earn and will be doing what. Career planning is the main route
which leads a person to the right path of success and honor to secure
his/her future.
The most
difficult part of life with respect to career planning comes when a student
has to decide about the subjects at Matriculation/O’ Level and FSc/A’ Level.
At this stage, a number of questions comes to his mind, and merely finds
some one who can guide him properly. Students ask
-
Which field suits me best?
-
What type of jobs one has to do in a particular profession?
-
What is the scope of any field or discipline?
-
In which discipline/field and institution the admission can be
sought?
-
Which institution is better and why?
-
What sorts of reserve seats are available?
-
What is the course duration, admission process, cost structure and
how to cut it short?
-
Is there any
organization that guide and helps throughout the process?
National
Needs
Higher
Education plays a vitally important role in increasing the prosperity of a
country. In today’s world, no nation can make advances without engaging a
large number of its human capital in research and development. The success
of a country in future can be determined by number of students enrolled in
its institutions of higher learning at present.
In Pakistan,
percentage of school going children is alarmingly very low and this number
keeps on decreasing as we move on to the higher classes. Only 26% of
students make their way to the higher education. So, 74% of the students
drop out due to many reasons. Lack of timely guidance is a major reason in
this regard. In addition to this, out of those who pursue their higher
learning, a large number of students make wrong choices.
Due to
lack of guidance and information
250, 000+ students are suffering annually
