Hyderabad: The Hindu E-Plus Engineering Counseling session was organised on Monday at the Srinagar Colony in the city. The event was co-hosted by ICFAI University. Professors from various engineering colleges were invited to guide the students. All aspects of engineering study and admission were discussed at the event along with the prospects of higher education, employment in India and aboard. Students were given an insight into what each stream of engineering involves.
Expert guidance on engineering courses like EEE, ECE, IT, CSE, mechanical, civil, chemical, architecture and biotechnical streams was also offered. The main focus was to ensure that students choose the right course which will help them in shaping their future. The academicians also advised the students on how they should select a college before they exercise their choices when counselling starts.
“Engineering is not about memorizing a particular chapter; it involves a lot of hard work. The student should have a clear ambition, a clear vision of what he wants to pursue in engineering, whether it is civil, mechanical or something in IT field. Students’ should have the right attitude and desire; they should be aware of the future the branch of engineering holds.
See the college but don’t blindly seek an admission with the appearance of the college building, infrastructure is must but quality of education is also important. It is important to see the ultimate objectives of the college,” said Nagabhushana Rao, Chairman, Institution of Engineers.
The students were advised to opt for conventional engineering courses like mechanical, civil, electronics or computers at graduation level and then pursue specialised courses at master’s level as some of the specialised courses offered at the entry level by a few colleges are simply aimed at increasing the seat count in that institution highlighted the academicians.
“Most of the students take engineering for granted; they feel they are ‘engineers’ once they step into engineering. Many of the students skip classes, their focus shifts into other activities, it is parents’ responsibility to monitor their childrens activity and ensure the child is on the right track. Engineering requires a lot of practice, so it’s important students spend study time wisely,” highlighted Srinivas Reddy, a Professor at an engineering college.
