Get Off The Beaten Path, Be What You Are
Careers 360|February 2017

When choosing a course, everyone tends to follow others instead of selecting one that suits one’s talent. Here’s how can you be different and reap success well...

Get Off The Beaten Path, Be What You Are

Our endeavour at Careers360 has always been to help the students take informed decisions, which will set them on the path of their true calling, be it a course or a career. It is this commitment that made us come up with a special edition, ‘Creative Courses 2017’.

The idea is to drift from more popular courses such as pure science, commerce, management, engineering et al and dwell upon such courses that will make students aware of their own creativity. It is primarily to highlight the right path and understand the prospects of select creative courses that we discuss threadbare: Fashion, Design, Animation and Masscom.
