Graduated

Graduating from a university, a true feeling comes when you attend the Convocation. Hanging robe and with batch-mates gathering, it becomes memorable for all those who turn up as recipients and are awarded degrees.

It was a great feeling for me too, to be there at RKGIT, Ghaziabad and being awarded the Degree.

One thing that will remain memorable other than the ceremony was the speech by Prof. Prem Vrat, Vice Chancellor, UPTU.

He talked about the imbalanced technological development due to imbalanced intake/streams in technical colleges. You can merely find private colleges with intake for streams like Leather, Civil, Plastic, Paper, Paint but every other college has high intake of Computer Science, Electronics and Communication, Information Technology.
In my words “It’s more of a business, than imparting education”.

Next, he simply pointed out the teaching and studying trend in private colleges. There is no advantage in just reading books and getting marks in the examinations, though it’s good but without implementation, it’s a full waste. In addition to this, the required professional, technical as well as the communication/soft skills are the areas where the students struggle as they don’t get the required level of  teachers/training/environment in college. More to add was that teachers are also struggling for the same skills.

I had a different perception for the University, but it changed to some extent after hearing those very meaningful words from Prof. Prem Vrat.

Other than all this, had a good time with some old chaps, which revived college days.
Ending this, i missed some of my friends who couldn’t attend it due to different reasons.

Rest Cheers to all!!!
