It has always been challenging for a university to play its role in bridging the gap between thetwo inevitable constraints vis-à-vis labor supply and demand. A well thought and plannedstream of placement efforts is a panacea which has proven viable and feasible to bridge thisgap.

BUITEMS undertakes to keep itself at par with an emerging trend of campus drive as anecessary tool for better placements of their fresh graduates, interns, and young alumni inregional and intra-provincial network of corporate companies. These efforts reduce the gapbetween academics and regional and local industries. Accordingly, the University also hopesthat these bridging efforts will lead to minimization of unemployment percentage in the localand regional economy. It strategically directs itself for laying out the platform via campus drivefor placements to consistently support the attitude and passion towards acquisition of dreamjobs for its students.

On another dimension of this drive, the University is getting more knowledgeable andabsorbing, by closely monitoring the hiring strategies and tactics of corporate employers tostreamline their teaching methodologies congruent and conjunctive to have better share injob placements.

BUITEMS imbibes its strength from its academia and this fact serves as an academic legacyfor the University. This manifestation is vividly evident when one of the pillars of academe isrecognized for lifetime dedication and commitment to outstanding teaching.

The richly deserved honor of Lifetime Achievement Award to our senior faculty and mentoris definitely a momentous rectitude and pride for BUITEMS. The Lifetime Achievement Awardrecognizes individuals who have demonstrated outstanding achievements in leadership,teaching and service over a period of 25 years or more. These distinctions are made basedon job performance, service at the regional, national or international levels, and throughservice to the society, in general.
