Placement season for engineering colleges to change

2010-08-02T03:43:50Z

If you’re an engineering student eagerly waiting to be picked up by top companies in the IT industry, you may have to hold on a little longer. The placement season for engineering colleges is set to change this year and it will probably become standard practice if suggestions by the National Association of Software and Service Companies (NASSCOM) are taken seriously. Earlier, students of engineering colleges would get offer letters almost a year before they passed out, but as NASSCOM — the premier trade body and the chamber of commerce of the IT industry in India — directed that campus recruitments be conducted only in the last semester.

No. of Indian students going to US falls, rises for UK

2010-08-02T03:46:24Z

Europe, after ages, has upstaged the US as the preferred campus destination for Indians. More than twice the number of desi students who applied to fly abroad for entry into colleges this year chose the UK over America. Data on the fresh visas for entry into colleges in 2010 reveals that the US issued 32,000 student visas, a little more than half the number issued by the UK (57,500). In 2009, the number of new student-entrants stood at 34,000 and 27,000 for the US and the UK, respectively. The number of people going to Australia has dropped following the recent spate of race attacks, say education consultants, explaining that a majority of

Nothing black & white about copying & pasting

2010-08-02T03:34:50Z

When 12-year-old Gunjan Malik, a class VII student, did a copy-paste job on junk food for a class assignment on lifestyle diseases, she didn’t think much of it. That was until her teacher pulled her up for internet plagiarism — lifting chunks of text off the internet and passing it off as her own. She was asked to redo her assignment. While Malik is cursing the plagiarism detection software that did her in, for many teachers, programs like Turnitin and Viper have been a godsend when it comes to checking the growing trend of internet

Australia creating 1,100 jobs every day

2010-05-14T12:42:59Z

Registering a record growth in its employment rate, Australia is creating 1,100 full-time jobs each day in various sectors, according to latest data. The country piled on an extra 37,500 full-time jobs in April, following on from 37,400 in March which was revised up from an earlier estimate of 30,100, said the employment figures released Thursday. But, at the same time it lost 3800 and 9700 part-time jobs as employers made positions full-time, The Age reported. Since December, Australia has put an extra 110,000 people into work creating jobs at an annualised pace of 3 percent, well in excess of the 2.5 per cent forecast in this week's budget. Though many extra jobs were created in industries such as administrative services, warehousing and accommodation, Australia's biggest and fastest-growing employer was the health and aged care industry, propelled by population ageing.

Indian education is steering online

2010-05-14T12:33:02Z

The advent of the Internet has definitely helped the Indian education sector redefine its platforms and strategies for imparting knowledge. This was an imperative for India considering the sheer size of the country and the fact that our educational institutions have to cater to millions of students and offer them some degree of uniformity when it comes to quality of education. Now, with the Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) taking strides to migrate the Common Admission Test (CAT) from the traditional paper-pencil basis to an online platform, it clearly shows how education and examination in India is gradually steering towards the online route. However, it must be noted that the glitches in conducting CAT online for the first time marred the show.

Hard work, high goals led her to the dream

2010-05-14T12:36:29Z

“Aim high. There is no end to what you can achieve.” The words of T.V. Anupama, who won the fourth rank in the Civil Services Examination, are loaded with emotion and earnestness. Years of hard work to achieve her goal reflect. Ms. Anupama had set her goals when she was in school. Even when she joined BITS, Pilani's Goa campus, one of the premier engineering institutions in the country, her mind was fixed on the Indian Administrative Service (IAS). Anything less would have left her dissatisfied. “I certainly would have written the examinations again if I did not get IAS,” she says during an interview interrupted by the continual inflow of relatives, friends and local people to congratulate her.

Although she was sure to crack the Civil Services Examinations, she did not expect a rank so high. In that, Ms. Anupama did the entire State proud. With a well-defined strategy to reach her high-set goals, this electronics engineering graduate
