A session on “The Art of CV Writing” was organized by the Department of English, Al Shifa College of Arts & Science, in collaboration with the Career Training and Placement Cell (CTPC), for the III Semester B.Sc. Nutrition and Dietetics students. The session was conducted on 22 September 2026 at 12:00 PM at Lecture Hall 2, New Block. The programme began with a welcome address by Ashna Haneefa, a III Semester B.Sc. Nutrition and Dietetics student.
The initiative was meticulously spearheaded by the final-year cohort to gain vital field exposure while addressing the unique physiological, nutritional, and emotional needs of elderly residents. The program commenced with a heartwarming ice-breaking session where the students greeted the senior inmates with fresh red roses, establishing an atmosphere of warmth, respect, and mutual joy. Drawing upon their clinical coursework, the final-year students carried out comprehensive one-on-one nutritional assessments, evaluating individual dietary habits, appetite fluctuations, physical difficulties, and chronic health concerns to deliver practical, empathetic guidance on adequate hydration and balanced, easy-to-digest nutrition.
Translating academic learning into meaningful social commitment, the department collected an amount of ₹4,500 through contributions from faculty and students, which was officially handed over to the care home authorities to help support the food and dietary requirements of the residents, making the outreach a fulfilling blend of experiential learning, clinical practice, and compassionate service.
