The following are some the actions of IAA that are planned to reach out to students.

· Career counseling
· Further studies guidance
· Preparation for campus interview
· Helping out with projects

The first step will be a mock test to be conducted.

These are the tasks that need to be carried out.

· Formulation of the question papers.

· Permission from the principal to conduct the same.

· Awareness through posters, word of mouth and departments.

· Meeting to decide on the particulars of the same.

Mock interviews and seminars held by more experienced members/non-members. Thus the need to rope in more alumni from earlier semesters.

Conduction of test along with the placement cell.

Other issues, topics and ideas were:

· Having 2 representatives from each class
· Finance
· e-mentoring
· Melton group
· Spreading IAA awareness

The following is the action plan of IAA. This is taken at a IAA meeting.

Setting the question papers: Aptitude and technical papers.Permission from the principal of BMSCE to conduct the same.
