How to select right Engineering college??


The Right Engineering College for you .......
The question arises that how to decide a college when there are thousands of engineering colleges in India. In this article we will discuss some of the features of colleges which will help you choose the right college. There are various factor while deciding a college for admission but always keep in mind the following factors while choosing a college:


Infrastructure: 
This is the most important factor while choosing a college Infrastructuredoes not means good looking building only. It means that whether a college has sufficient amount of infrastructure according to it's intake capacity. It include classroom, administrative building, workshop, computer labs, various laboratories etc. Because during your four year of graduation you need all these things, so keep it your first preference while choosing a college.


AICTE approval

The second one we have to check whether the college has got AICTE (All India Council for Technical Education) approval. After approving by AICTE, the members from AICTE use to visit the college for inspection every year. They will check all lab facilities for each department and other aspects of college.

Accreditation by NBA:

Accreditation is very important criteria when choosing a college. We have to check whether the college is accredited. NBA - National Board of Accreditation which is an extention of AICTE, will inspect the college by each department in the college in all aspects by means of lab, student – teacher ratio, Qualification and experience of Teaching professionals, etc. So this will help us to know about the college in a better way. Each department is accredited by NBA separately. One department may accredited for five years whereas other department for three years. So it is our duty to know which department we are going to choose and how many years that NBA accredited that particular department


Faculty:
Having a good infrastructure is not enough only. After having a sufficient infrastructure it is the faculty that make it useful, otherwise it will be a school without a teacher. Always have a look on college faculty which include Professors, reader, lecturer, teacher-student ratio, visiting faculty, teaching experience etc.

Facilities: 
This is another important factor that you have to keep in mind.Facilities provided by college assist you during your college period.It include Library, Internet, intranet, hostels, seminar halls, dispensary, student clubs, gym etc.

Training & Placements:
This is the most important factor while deciding a college. It not mean that it is the first and last criteria to choose a college. Placements of a college depend upon many factor like it's infrastructure,faculty,facilities provided by college to it's student,college rank, past performance of the students in company, and last but not the least individual talent and personality and many more factors. Have a look on past placement record of college branch wise as well as company wise.So keep all the things in mind while deciding a college.

Softskills, communication skills, Value added courses, Guest lectures from various industries, Industrial visit, Workshops are all coming under training part. This will help the students to get ready for the employment and also creates awareness of the current trend in the industry. Some colleges gives training by the internal faculties whereas some colleges using external source for the training. Whatever it is, we should check the quality of the training by asking the senior students or from the graduated students from that college.

Extra curricular activities: 
This is also one of the factor that should be taken into account because "all work and no play make jack a dull boy" this is true beacuse you have not to study only but have to survive in a competitive environment and for that u have to be a good personality.Extra curricular activities play a very important role in your personality development.So have a look about extra activities provided by college like, annual function, sport function, students club, seminars and workshops, industrial training, social activities, NCC, NSS etc.

So now question arises that how you can get so much of information about each and every college there are some tips for you

1.Visit the college web site on Internet

2.consult your seniors

3.visit the college personally if possible

4.Take the help of counsellor

Mokshagundam Visvesvarayya


Mokshagundam Visvesvaraya, popularly and affectionately known as Sir M.V., was born on September 15, 1860 in a village known as Muddenahalli in Chikballapur Taluk, Kolar District. His father died in Kurnool when Visvesvaraya was just 15 years old.


He lead a very simple life. He was a strict vegetarian and a teetotaler. He was known for his honesty and integrity. Before accepting the position of Dewan of Mysore, he invited all his relatives for dinner. He told them very clearly that he would accept the prestigious office on the condition that none of them would approach him for favours. Such things are unheard of these days.



Some of the job positions he held were
  1. Assistant Engineer, Bombay Government Service (in 1884)
  2. Chief Engineer, Hyderabad State (he served only for 7 months starting April 15, 1909)
  3. Chief Engineer in Mysore State (Nov 15, 1909). He was also Secretary to the Railways.
  4. President of Education and Industrial Development committees in Mysore State
  5. Dewan of Mysore. [for six years starting 1912]
  6. Chairman, Bhadravati Iron Works
  7. Member of the Governing Council of the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore
  8. Member of the Governing Council of Tata Iron and Steel Company [TISCO]
  9. Member of Back Bay enquiry committee, London
  10. Member of a committee constituted in 1917 to make recommendations regarding the future of Indian States.


Sir M.V. retired in 1908 and Sri Krishnarajendra Wodeyar, Maharaja of Mysore, was eager to secure the services of Visvesvaraya to serve Mysore.  He joined as Chief Engineer in Mysore because he wanted challenging opportunities. Sir M.V. had earned a reputation for his honesty, integrity, ability and intelligence. He had introduced compulsory education in the State which later was embodied as a fundamental right in the Constitution of independent India.
To name few of the many things he was responsible for:
  1. Architect of the Krishnarajasagara dam - or KRS or Brindavan gardens .  One of the biggest dams in India which irrigates a hundred and twenty thousand acres of land.
  2. Bhadravati Iron and Steel Works - as its Chairman he rescued it from becoming extinct.
  3. Mysore Sandal Oil Factory and the Mysore soap factory
  4. Mysore University - Sir M.V.'s question was "If Australia and Canada could have universities of their own for less than a million population, cannot Mysore with a population of not less that 60 lakhs have a University of its own?"
  5. State Bank of Mysore (it was first named The Bank Of Mysore)
  6. Public libraries in Mysore and Bangalore
  7. Encouraging girls to attend school.
  8. Mysore Chamber of Commerce
  9. Kannada Sahitya Parishad or the Kannada Literary Academy
  10. Sri Jayachamarajendra Occupational Institute, Bangalore - funded by the ENTIRE money [Rs 2 lacs] he earned from rescuing Bhadravati Iron Works

In India Sept 15 is celebrated as Engineer's Day in memory of our beloved Sir MV.
