SRM VC advises student to accept failures

Students must learn to take failure in their stride, Sandeep Sancheti, Vice Chancellor of SRM Institute of Science and Technology, said here on Wednesday.

While speaking at the valedictory of the decennial year summer programme of research in science organised by the Research Science Initiative — founded by Padma Seshadri Bala Bhavan group of schools and Centre for Excellence in Education, U.S. — he said, students should stop worrying about marks in life.

The six-week science enrichment programme saw applications sent out to 300 schools and after rounds of shortlisting and final interview, 35 students were chosen. Bhaskar Ramamurthi, Director of IIT Madras, said the programme will expose students to lectures and give them a chance to work with faculty on projects.

Sydney Skov, Vice Consul, U.S. Consulate, Chennai and Mrs. Y.G. Parthasarathy, Dean and Director of PSBB group of schools, spoke at the event.
