How
to choose the right Engineering College?
Every year, after 12th final examination, millions of
students in India have a hard time selecting the right engineering college and
engineering program or branch that will open doors to an exciting career. Since
long, engineering has been the most preferred & “rest assured” choice for a
professional career.
The ordeal sometimes it seems is not clear the examinations
but later on making a decision about the correct college to choose from the
many options that are available. The question then arises of 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 factors one should keep his/her
mind while deciding a college for admission:
Infrastructure:
This is the most important factor while choosing a college.
Infrastructure does not only mean a good looking building. It means that
whether a college has sufficient amount of infrastructure according to its intake
capacity. It includes 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.
Faculty:
The infrastructure cannot be the only choosing factor when
deciding a college. After having a sufficient infrastructure it is the faculty
that makes it useful, otherwise it will be a school without a teacher. Always
have a look on college faculty which includes professors, reader, lecturer,
teacher-student ratio, visiting faculty, teaching experience etc.
Facilities:
This is another important factor that you have to keep in
your mind. Facilities provided by college assist you during your college
period. This includes library, internet, intranet, hostels, seminar halls,
dispensary, student clubs, gym etc.
Placements:
This is the most important factor while deciding a college.
It does not mean that it is the first and last criteria to choose a college. Placements
of a college depend upon many factors like its infrastructure, faculty,
facilities provided by college to its students, 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.
Extracurricular activities:
This is also one of the factors
that should be taken into account because "all work and no play makes jack
a dull boy" indeed. This stands true because not only do you have to study
but you also have to survive in a competitive environment and for that you have
to be a develop an all rounder personality. Extracurricular 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.
Location:
This factor does not play a very important role but if it is
nearby any industrial or software hub then it may be slightly useful to you as
far as your industrial training and placement is concerned but keep this factor
at last.
