Mangaluru: St. Joseph Engineering College hosted a career fair on higher education and training avenues under the title ‘Suvidha-19’, which is a one-day career fair, exclusively for the students and alumni of the college, here on Saturday, February 9.

Addressing the gathering Principal Dr. Rio D’Souza said, “We at SJEC have taken collaboration very seriously, to make sure that the staff and students get exposure to the outer world. One of the definitions of success is doing the right thing at the right place and at a right time. But many a time a wrong opportunity comes at the right time and right opportunity comes at a wrong time”.
Meanwhile, he gave instances of his academic period and said, “If I would put more efforts I would get around 93-94 percent in PUC and probably would have got an admission in NITK. I regret that all though I’m happy here. My message to the students here is don’t let off the opportunities”.
