SAS has been formed under the directorate of student welfares to address the needs of the students and academic staff regarding collaborative opportunities at home and abroad. The formation of the cell was triggered by the gap of knowledge regarding the external funding opportunities among the students and the need to revive the existing collaborations. An academic staff is appointed as the contact point for facilitating the activities of the cell and maintaining the liaison between the University and the external institutions.
SAS activities include :
Managing and mobilizing the information flow regarding the opportunities of higher education for students in abroad.
Facilitating the collaborations that have been signed between local/foreign Institutions and UAP to initiate student/faculty exchange and encourage collaborative research endeavors.
SCC is the university’s specialized service for personal counseling, psychotherapy, and psychological outreach and consultation services. The Centre’s mission is to promote the psychological, educational, and social well-being of the student of UAP and to help prepare them to be productive members of society. Although SSS is primarily focused on students, but the services are extended to the faculty, staff and even the parents/spouse of the students, when needed.
This center also offers a number of workshops on different psycho-social issues such as stress and anger management, self- respect and self-confidence, emotional intelligence, forgiveness, meditation, communication, relationship and leadership skills and so on. It also provides training on group dynamics and motivational lectures.
Career Counseling Centre (CCC), established under DSW, provides career advisory services to the students that continues throughout the studentship at the University, and beyond as a member of the UAP Alumni. The CCC evaluates the market need and arranges lectures, seminars, workshops, discussions, mock interviews etc. to hone the inherent management skill of the students so that they are better positioned for the best job opportunities.
