Rewards & Recognition Nothing like being recognized and appreciated in front of your proud teachers, encouraging seniors, cheering peers and adulating juniors at your alma-mater! The Alumni identifies and recognizes the outstanding performers of the year in its annual general meeting. The act of performance may be in your profession, in academics, in contribution to the institute, or in contribution to the society in general. Benefits to the Institute Climbing high in the National Rankings A strong alumni association makes a stronger institute and increases the value of your degree. As President Mote reported to the Maryland Alumni Association Board of Governors, "the strongest universities in the country have strong alumni support". And national ranking organizations agree. In fact, "alumni participation" is included in their evaluations and ultimately, in how they rank an institution. Feedback and Improvement The alumni of an institute are its ambassadors to the world. They move around the world, visit and become part of centers of excellence, and give valuable feedback to the institute in order to improvise, innovate and excel. Benefits to the Students Education support The Association plans to sustain scholarship and legacy programs that make a quality education possible for several deserving DIASians. Membership dues also support a professional development series designed to help students make a successful transition from student life to the professional world. Career Planning Regular interactions between Alumni members and students help the students in identifying the best possible options in the professional world and planning their subsequent educational and professional career accordingly. Training and Placement Assistance The Association has a well-defined communication channel with the institute that takes care of providing placement support to final year students.
