NSS Unit - College of Applied Science Kottarakkara

The NSS unit of College of Applied Science Kottarakkara was started in 2024. Envisioned with the ideal of inculcating students with values of social and community-living, National Service Scheme (Unit No:96) of our college has been successfully conducting its programmes ever since its inception. The motto of NSS is ‘Not Me; But You’. This reflects the essence of democratic living and upholds the need for selfless service.

With the avowed intention of benefitting the socio-cultural environment of its locale, the NSS programme actively fosters a spirit of social responsibility in the students through activities as varied as social service activities, cleaning initiatives, nature study programmes, personality development programmes, awareness classes, and campaigns against social evils such as drug addiction and AIDS are conducted in college.

Eligibility and Participation

Students enrolled for the NSS programme are required to partake in a minimum of 240 hours of work over a period of two consecutive academic years and attend a seven-day special camp within this period. On completion of these requirements, the students become eligible for a certificate from the University, which will also guarantee them weightage marks as per the University guidelines.

Besides these academic rewards, the other substantial gain that the NSS programme offers to its volunteer students is a space to be social actors contributing to the well-being of their community, society, and environment.
