Nurturing Minds: How the Mentor–Mentee Framework Prioritises Mental Health at BSSS IAS

At BSSS IAS, student well-being is regarded as an essential element of holistic education. We believe that academic growth is most meaningful when students feel emotionally supported and confident in seeking guidance whenever needed. To uphold this commitment, the institute places strong emphasis on mental health and continues to create an environment where students feel safe, valued, and understood.

A major contributor to this supportive culture is the mentor–mentee framework. Each faculty member is assigned a group of students that includes both juniors and seniors, ensuring a balanced and approachable support structure. The essence of this system lies in its consistent engagement. Formal interactions are organised to review academic performance, attendance requirements, and career-related progress, while informal conversations provide space for students to share personal concerns, emotional challenges, and day-to-day difficulties without hesitation.

This blend of formal and informal engagement builds trust, encourages openness, and helps mentors identify areas where students may require additional support. It also reduces emotional isolation and ensures that problems are addressed early, contributing to a positive and reassuring campus environment.

Nationally, the importance of student mental health has been gaining increasing attention. Bodies such as the University Grants Commission have highlighted the need for structured mental-health support in higher education institutions, while the All India Council for Technical Education continues to promote emotional and psychological wellness initiatives. The mentor–mentee system at BSSS IAS aligns well with this broader educational vision and reflects a proactive approach to student well-being.

Through consistent guidance, patient listening, and a culture of care, BSSS IAS strives to nurture individuals who are academically prepared and emotionally resilient. The institute remains committed to ensuring that every student finds the support they need to thrive, both inside and outside the classroom.
