Career Guidance

[damnthenet]

I have done my Comp engg this year and cleared out with 1st class.
But according to me Engg is JUST and degree and it in no way can help in job feild...the syllabus sucks..which stresses more on theory....and irrelevant subjects.....every enng has to get additional knowledge ...say programming language, h/w knowledge, MBA etc.
The Companies aslo do not trust Engg degrees so tehy get in to training 6months to the candiates they have recruited.....they only to have to find QUICK learners through marks.....
Only few r capable of applying knowledge of engg feild in job env....
So what all enng ghave to say abt this

It's absolutely true. But the guys now (including me) have more exposure to many stuff (of course, bcoz of the flourishing IT industry) which makes things easier. So, it's left in the hands of students (no pun intended) to get equipped with the necessary know' and skills and get going. But anyway, it's only the "SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST"

After getting out of college......i am learning that only until we get 1st job the marks matters..after that the experience u get and according to ur expertise u get the future jobs..so y the hell poeple stress so much on theory and marks......professional studies should be pratical (industrial) based........
So selecting a career what u enjoy the most shoudl be picked...or u can say what u can MASTER is BEST path....

There are multiple ways and I'll write about one of them.
You can take up engineering (Obviously a branch heavy in electronics) in your U.G and do M.E. in your preferred field (like VLSI design).
You can also master electronics taking a U.G. in the field and then go for advanced topics of your interest in P.G.

this is to all who have completed their engg ..

i am a 3rd year engg student { branch comp.sci } staying in bangalore.

i havent yet studied anything other than what comes under our university syllabus ie i have only studied the prog languages like c n c++ .thats it.
i know only these languages but i am not perfect in either of these. i now want to improve upon my knowledge.so please tell me what other things do i have to learn to atleast stand some outside chance of getting a job.
{ i say outside coz i feel i have not a lot of chances }

it would be very kind of you if you help

thanx in advance,

Depends on ur grasping power....... MECH is one subject dreaded by all....
I still dunno y the hell this subject is there for IT, comp, elex branch.

The answer that I gave FIRST in post 17 in this thread is not appropriate... there was an error in the units and an equtaion...
I didn't read the question properly first... Now, I have edited it and given the correct answer. Sorry for the mistake

No engg ..atleast IT - COMP ..should have high hopes ..thinking that he/she will learn everything in this course and will be master at it....in short the SYLLABUS SUCKS....its outdated...very 3 years evaluation must be done..for latest hot subjects..but ist is not so..so having other knowledge other than degree is must.....now days its just other way round
JACK OF ALL TRADE MASTER OF NONE holds good to get good job...as companies looks for multi tasker...than specialisation..as then they do have to higher 2 emp for 2 jobs...

I really agree with what u say.........but it's also this way.........They look for multi-talented people so that they can train them as a specialist in the field they choose.....
What? Am I right???
