SWOT Analysis:

Strength:

The entire Students worked as a team. The work was done on time and under the guidance of faculty in-charges

Weakness:

As the senior college has celebrated these events 1 st time in the college so some ideas implementation remains incomplete.

Opportunities:

Provide the students different types of platforms for personality development.

Threats:

It was seen that there was fear of students to perform on stage due to lack of confidence.

FUTURE PLANS:

Don Bosco College has always provided its students with opportunities to prove their mettle in different fields. The students and the in-charge are responsible for all the events which are organized by the principal and the management of Don Bosco College. Activities under the college are well supported by the team of faculty members. The committee is responsible to organize events that provide a platform to students to nurture and show their talent in various fields. The cultural and sports and other committees of college are looking forward to start new activities and give students an opportunity to develop themselves from the knowledge and experience of Principal and Director of college and from the staff.
