What are the different opportunities for the students?

If one has to study hard, we have a lot of positions and opportunities for them, we have different fields & sectors for students, it depends on the student which subjects he or she is interested in or wants to have in the future. A student should always be ready for his future.

When you reflect on your time in the educational industry, what’s the significant difference?

If I notice the difference between my time & today's time, the first difference is the number of institutes, in my time there were a smaller number of institutes, & limited opportunities in admissions, and field & challenges were more & facilities were very limited these days there are a lot of technology for students such as labs, mobile phones, different methods of educations which were not in our time.
