Late Shree Fakirbhai Pansare Education Foundation's
College of Physiotherapy Pune

The Placement Cell at LSFPEF’s College of Physiotherapy plays an integral part in shaping the future of our students by bridging the gap between academic learning and the professional physiotherapy landscape. Our core mission is to ensure that students transition smoothly from college to career, securing positions that align with their goals, strengths, and aspirations.

Mission and Vision

The Placement Cell envisions a career-ready graduate who is not only clinically competent but also professionally confident. Our goal is to equip students with the tools, resources, and opportunities needed to embark on meaningful and rewarding professional journeys—whether in clinical practice, research, higher education, or allied health sectors.

Industry Engagement and Opportunities

A key function of the Placement Cell is to develop and sustain strong linkages with healthcare organizations, hospitals, rehabilitation centers, fitness and sports institutes, academic institutions, and research organizations. Through ongoing engagement, we:

• Identify employment trends and emerging roles within the physiotherapy field
• Facilitate collaborations with top-tier healthcare employers
• Create pathways for internships, placements, and pre-placement training programs

The Cell organizes on-campus and off-campus recruitment drives, enabling students to interact directly with potential employers and explore a wide array of career opportunities.

Career Development and Student Preparedness

Recognizing that technical expertise alone does not guarantee career success, the Placement Cell places a strong emphasis on holistic professional development. To that end, we conduct:

• Career counselling sessions by industry professionals and alumni
• Workshops and seminars on professional ethics, workplace expectations, and industry-specific developments
• Soft skills and communication training to enhance interpersonal and patient-interaction skills
• Mock interviews and resume-building sessions to prepare students for real recruitment scenarios

These initiatives ensure that our students are well-prepared, confident, and adaptable in diverse professional environments.

Student Profiling and Employer Matching

The Placement Cell maintains a comprehensive digital repository of student profiles, which includes academic performance, clinical experience, areas of interest, certifications, and long- term career goals. This data-driven approach allows us to:

• Share relevant profiles with organizations seeking specific skill sets
• Customize recruitment drives based on employer requirements
• Ensure better alignment between job roles and candidate capabilities

Alumni Network and Mentorship Initiatives

Alumni are one of our most valuable resources. The Placement Cell functions as a hub for alumni engagement, fostering a mutually beneficial relationship between past and current students. Our alumni initiatives include:

• Mentorship programs to provide career guidance and clinical insights
• Networking events and panel discussions to connect students with professionals in diverse fields
• Alumni talks and guest lectures to share real-world experiences and success stories

These interactions play a crucial role in motivating students, clarifying career options, and creating a strong professional network.

Our Commitment

At LSFPEF’s College of Physiotherapy, the Placement Cell is deeply committed to the overall success and well-being of our students. We strive to build a dynamic and supportive environment where students can:

• Discover their unique strengths
• Make informed career decisions
• Seamlessly transition into the workforce or higher studies

By nurturing talent and facilitating access to real-world opportunities, we aspire to empower our graduates to make significant, lasting contributions to the field of physiotherapy and the broader healthcare community.
