The participation of faculty and students in various festivals and their involvement in judging roles at events reflect a strong commitment to fostering a vibrant academic and cultural environment within the department. Faculty members not only contribute through mentorship but also represent the department in adjudicating competitions, thereby enhancing their visibility and influence within academic and professional circles. Students, on the other hand, actively engage in festivals, showcasing their talents and skills while gaining valuable exposure and experience. These roles help build a sense of community, promote interdisciplinary collaboration, and enhance the department’s reputation, as both faculty and students display leadership, creativity, and expertise in these extracurricular activities. Such involvement also fosters a well-rounded educational experience, where academic knowledge is complemented by practical, real-world engagement.
