[{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1518932581545","data":"When we talk about engineering we have to exclude the IITs. IITs are t the different level than the engineering students <\/p>There is some significant skill gap in the country as 80% of engineering grads are \u201cUnemployable\u201d.<\/p>India produces 1.5 million engineers every year from 4000 institutes which means we have more engineers then the USA and China combined.(Ewwww)  <\/p>Engineering institutions are generating so many graduates but corporate often complains that they are not getting the skills and talents which is required for the entry-level jobs. <\/p>One of the biggest MNC in India has to first hire engineers from colleges and then they have to provide training to the recruits at Mysore campus. <\/p>The training will try to teach you in six months what four years of engineering in India couldn\u2019t teach (what the hell!). They are known to provide the best training no doubt about that. So if an industry can provide this high level of training then why don\u2019t our institutions adapt this training technique <\/p>But coming back to point why is this training required in first place. This training is required because we are not good engineers( then what am I doing here). We all have theoretical sound knowledge but when it comes to practical knowledge we don\u2019t know shit about it<\/p>Following factors which contribute to making engineers \u2014 Unemployable ( we have to think about that): <\/p> <\/p>Quality of the education : <\/p>Outdated learning curriculum and old teaching techniques. <\/p> <\/p>Theory vs Practice : <\/p>Our curriculum-education system focuses only on theoretical knowledge instead it should be more practical. <\/p> <\/p>Exams : <\/p>Indian education measures the learning on the basis of one final exam instead it should start concentrating on assignments and because of this students lay emphasis on only the exams and not on learning the subject. <\/p> <\/p>Research : <\/p>There are not many scoops of research with our institutions. <\/p> <\/p>Lack of exposure : <\/p>Most institutes don\u2019t provide internship opportunities. They should understand that internship provides exposure to students about work is done in companies.<\/p> <\/p> Professors:<\/p> Majority of the professors don\u2019t know how to teach, they are neither open-minded nor updated with the latest advancements. <\/p> <\/p>More Supply \u2014 less demand :<\/p> As more and more graduates are coming out, The supply and demand cycle is getting affected.<\/p> <\/p> This is not unknown reasons every engineering graduate in the country have first hand experienced them. <\/p>India\u2019s youths are very ambitious. It\u2019s on the mentors, parents, and society to encourage them and help them in becoming more employable. Some drastic changes are required in our educational system. The government should work with priority on this matter as it affects lots of people and indirectly affects the future of INDIA.<\/p> This is India, this thing won\u2019t changes for decades so we have to work on yourself.<\/p> To all the unemployed freshers out there, I know how it feels to be unwanted but this is what will drive you to better opportunities.<\/p> Focus your time and energy only on learning because there are lots of opportunity waiting for the right candidates.<\/p> Don\u2019t go for training institute they will not be good for you instead invest in online courses they will surely help you in improving your technical skills.  <\/p>Their lot of the websites which offer courses in the variety of subjects and they provide world-class faculty.<\/p>"}]
