Orientation Day at NMIT
L. Subramaniam, renowned violinist, inaugurated the Orientation Day for the 2025–2029 batch at Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology (NMIT), Bengaluru, on Wednesday. He emphasised that higher education should support inclusivity, with diverse voices reflected in both the curriculum and co-curricular activities. He drew a parallel to music, where innovation with basic notes prevents monotony, encouraging students to experiment similarly in their careers.
Mr. Subramaniam also highlighted the role of music in reducing stress, improving mood and energy levels, and aiding emotional recovery.
H.C. Nagaraj, principal, outlined the institution's activities and infrastructure. Rohit Punja, administrator, Nitte Education Trust, presided over the event. Sandeep Shastri, vice-president of Nitte (deemed to be university), Bengaluru campus, welcomed around 1,600 new students and their parents. J. Sudheer Reddy, dean (Academics), concluded the programme with a vote of thanks.
