National Service Scheme, DTU

NSS DTU has a volunteer base of around 250 students belonging to various disciplines of engineering at DTU. We work on a diverse range of social and environmental issues viz. literacy and health awareness. The overall aim of NSS-DTU is to give an extended dimension to the higher education system and orient the students towards community service while they are studying in the institution, more precisely, to establish a meaningful linkage between the campus and the community so that their interaction with the common villagers and slum dwellers will expose the students to the harsh realities of poverty-stricken life and bring about a change in their social perception.
