Students arriving for the workshop. –

WARANGAL: Hundreds of young students and their anxious parents who attended The Hindu Education Plus career guidance programme got more than what they had expected and asked for.

The venue National Institute of Technology (NIT) auditorium was inspiring and provided a perfect ambience for the programme. The auditorium was filled with curious students who came to solve their dilemma. Renowned academics in various branches of engineering, medicine, pharmacy and biotechnology were roped in to share their experience and guide the students and parents.

The pre-counselling career workshop, eighth in the series in Andhra Pradesh was sponsored by TIME.

The senior professors from NIT , Kakatiya University and Kakatiya Medical College were all there answering the questions posed by students who got through EAMCET.

NIT director Prof. Y. V. Rao lauding the efforts of The Hindu, said the students and parents who were of the view that there is no future for any course except engineering and medicine really needed proper guidance and awareness about other avenues and emerging fields. He said biomedical engineering, nano technology, instrumentation and biotechnology were some of the fields which would rule society in days to come.

“A mosquito which appears tiny does 1,100 functions. Scientists around the world are thinking of building a motor of that size. We need more such people who can think that way and for them there is plethora of opportunities around the globe,” he said.

‘Think different’

The director hoped that the world would witness lot of revolutionary changes in science and technology. “Think differently,” Prof Y. V. Rao summed up inaugurating the session.

Renowned in the field of mathematics, Prof. T. K.V. Iyengar said usually most of the students stop improving their skills in mathematics after joining the professional course. But, it is their mathematical ability that keeps one at the top in any organisation or field.

“Unexpected developments are taking place in every field of study. Now, the mathematical modelling is the emerging subject which offers splendid opportunities,” he explained.

Focus on maths

The students and parents listened to Prof. Iyengar in rapt attention as he went on sharing his ideas on importance of mathematics and opportunities it offered world-wide. “The fashion technology, modelling and study of plants – everything involves mathematics,” he said emphasising the importance of mathematics.

About KITS Warangal::
The Government of Andhra Pradesh, in the late seventies, realizing the popular demand for enhancement of facilities for engineering education, adopted a far reaching and progressive policy of encouraging philanthropic organizations to establish and manage technical institutions without straining the already meager financial resources of the state. As a consequence of such a policy decision, Kakatiya Institute of Technology and Science, popularly known as KITS, was established at Warangal in the academic year 1980-81. The institute over a period of two and half decades and more, had substantially improved its infrastructural facilities, attracted academicians of proven competence onto its faculty and gained recognition amongst academic circles.
