Orissa Governer stresses on ethics in professional education

There is a need to include ethics and morals in the curriculum of engineering and management education, M C Bhandare, the Orissa governor said here at the Fifth Annual Convocation of KIIT University.

Addressing the students, he said, “You are the future growth managers and the ambassadors of change. Your plans, policies and strategies should not exclude ethics and morals.”

“The finest example of a young man clinging to ethics, morals and values and thereby transforming the lives of thousands is KIIT founder A Samanta whose deeds have brought the marginalized into the mainstream. He should be the role model for the students of KIIT University”, Bhandare added.
