Engineering and Projects at Kirloskar Oil
Engines Ltd. He was speaking on this
occasion as Guest of Honor. He shared
his view on how academicians play an
important role in bridging the gap
between teaching and industries. He
said that today's most important
requirement is skill development. He
said that everyone seeks a white collar
job but no one seeks a blue collar job.
He said that it's the blue collar jobs in
fact that enhance the learning curve and
bring out creativity and out of box
thinking. He said that this gap can also
be minimized at the teaching phase if
universities of institutes can depute their
teachers at industries frequently for
exposure to industry and increase 5the
logical interaction and problem solving.
He suggested the students gathering
that instead of starting careers as a small
person in a big pool of MNC, they
should start working with their own
hands at production level. Instead of
taking pride in their job as a person,
they should try to contribute some value
addition to the industry. He concluded
his speech saying that instead of doing
projects or trainings as a part of
academics they should undergo it
thoroughly as a learning curve.
Genre, the annual magazine of
BVUCOE was also inaugurated by the
hands of Chief guest on this occasion.
Newsletter Zero day, which is a
