Dentist in Uncharted waters – Meet an IAS after Dentistry


How big a dream is too big?? We dentists often feel that many constraints are curtailing us from pursuing our passion and dreams. But a few trailblazing men and women have charted their pathways by breaking these glass ceilings. Becoming an IAS officer is a dream for many Indians though only a few can make this dream a reality. Out of them, only a handful have begun their race towards civil services after a BDS course. In SocioDent’s third webinar titled ‘Dentists in Uncharted waters’, you will be meeting one such individual and listening to his inspiring journey. Dr Giri Shankar, IAS, is currently serving as the Assistant Collector in the union territory of Puducherry after finishing his course in Bachelors in Dentistry (BDS) nearly eight years back. Apart from his motivational talk, there is also a portion where some direct question from the audience are taken and answered. This session is sure to give you some fuel and propel you forward in your journey towards your dream destinations.
