TECHNICAL EDUCATION VICTIM OF PSEUDO-INTELLECTUALISM
Technical
Education is the victim of Superiority Complex, Pseudo-Intellectualism, Total
detachability from the Indian Industries requirements, Teaching mostly using
the foreign material, Curriculum designed for continuance of the livelihood
rather than brainstorming to produce employable industry ready engineers.
The
present-day engineering degree holding engineers find it difficult to accept
the challenges of Shop-floor in any industry. Industries are starved of good
productive engineers and are failing to sustain as a result or forced to continue
with lower productivity. It is evident that lower productivity just can’t
ensure respectable salaries or employment.
Narrative
is so developed that blame for unemployability either goes to the Government or
the Industries while the blame 100% belongs to the unrealistic curriculum and its
handlers. I am confident that this will soon be realized by the career conscious
students and things will start changing only after that. The balanced curriculum
is one that ensures a mix of employable and innovative engineers.
The realistic and productive curriculum can be
designed only when custodians keep away the Pseudo-intellectuals and Nepotism.
