BTP Analysis

Let me bring to you most hilarious analysis of B Tech project ever read by me on Internet. This is a piece of adaption from a post of a great blogger who is also alumnus of my college. I am huge admirer of her writings. A tale of B.T.P. analysis in the season of end semester is mandatory for me.Here we go ------------------- Let me first of all clarify to the readers that the above title is read as "BTP A-null-(th)esis". For the advantage of all non engineering readers BTP as understood or made understood by any technological institute is expanded as "B.Tech Project". As you all know, B.Tech is the degree for which we toil and survive the 4 years assigned to the course. BTP, however, expanded by technological students would conform to any of the following terms but the one given before : Badly Timed Project Breath Taking Project Brain Twisting Project Bulk Torture Project Boring Technology Project Big Tragedy Project Bravely Tackled Project Bas Topic Project Or so...

Saga of Mechanical Engineer from ITBHU

Image
As stated before , I was great fan of opening scene of RHTDM . A firing dialogue was delivered - “ Mechanical Engineer mein fire hone chahiye ”. Then in next scene of the movie, R. Madhavan ignites a lighter for smoking cigarette. That snap makes mechanical engineering as a coolest and macho field of engineering. Mechanical department is more cussed fore lesser grades and strict professors than any other department irrespective of engineering college. Really handy research predicts the stronger aptitude – between verbal and numerical – in children by the relative lengths of their fingers. Now, how cool is that? Apparently, if your index finger is shorter than your ring finger, then your numerical aptitude is expected to be stronger. And if the index is longer, then your verbal ability is stronger. Of course, my longer index finger explains – in hindsight – why I scraped through four years of Mechanical Engineering. And do not miss the use of middle finger used for sign language.... I...

Software Industry and Engineers

Engineers have always had to endure the "nerd" label, but some catchy phrase might change that image. RHDTM was such incident to me. A dialogue was delivered-“ Mechanical Engineer mein fire hone chahiye ”. Then in next scene,  R. Madhavan ignites a lighter for smoking cigarettes. That snap makes engineering a cool career to me in school days. I decided in 1s year two things: To get a software job and to excel in any field except academics. I completed this resolution successfully. Apart from my story, the creation of over 250,000 white collar jobs is something to celebrate. For the first time in recent Indian history, the 'ordinary' graduate is in demand. If it took outsourcing to create this demand - so be it. But remember software industry is not about creating new things. Its all about client giving you work. Work that their IT team is NOT interested in doing. Well, here’s the deal. Practically every engineer – and not just from IIT but the top 200 colleges in In...

Engineering Education in India

Who are Engineers? '' Engineers ... are not superhuman. They make mistakes in their assumptions, in their calculations, in their conclusions. That they make mistakes is forgivable; that they catch them is imperative. Thus it is the essence of modern engineering not only to be able to check one's own work but also to have one's work checked and to be able to check the work of others '' - Henry Petroski (From: To Engineer Is Human. Engineers Creed) Derived from the Latin world"ingeniare" engineering means ''to design'' or ''to create''. Hardly any engineer knows this definition,understanding is distant dream. Theoretically engineers apply the theories and principle of science and mathematics to research and develop economical solution to technical problem. We, Indians are producing hardly these kind of engineers in practical. My statement is not indirect insult to the system, but a down to earth filthy slang on engineerin...
