Dear Budding Engineers and
Architects,
The new academic year commenced
from the last week of July 2014 in every institute imparting Engineering,
Technology and Architecture programs of study. Keeping this in view, First
& foremost, I convey my heartiest congratulations to you all for
successfully completing your 12th certification examination, JEE
(Main); JEE (Advance), CET (in few states); NATA exam and getting admitted
yourself to the institute of your choice for furthering your studies in the
discipline of Engineering, Technology and Architecture.
The years of toil and
labour in pursuit of intellectual excellence has brought you today to the
institute which you have taken admission will act as the gateway of all your
future dreams and achievements. I also congratulate all the Parents, all the
faculty members, staff members and other employees of the Institute, wherever
you have studied as on date who has directly or indirectly contributed in this
process.
The world is evolving fast and
this time it is the fast growing economies like India which are being looked
upon to create a new economic order, both progressive as well as equitable.
India has been planning many infrastructure development projects in coming
days, few to name 100 smart cities, wherein the Engineers and Architects have a
major role to play.
My dear young aspirants,
I call on you to seek inspiration from the leaders in the domain of
Engineering, Technology and Architecture across the world by reading and
understanding about their contribution in these domains. The course duration
has to be utilized very effectively and efficiently to inculcate and imbibe the
skills, like technical, financial and social, so that you become competent in
every aspect to face the challenges ahead in your career.
My dear students do
remember that every particle of dust has some knowledge to impart, if only there
is someone to ask for it, there are many doors longing to open, if only someone
will knock at them. Hence inculcate the spirit of enquiry while undergoing
course work in class rooms/ laboratories or drawing halls; enable the
interactive mode with the faculty members during learning. The success comes to
those who instill in them the commitment of lifelong learning.
My best wishes go with
you. May you never stop the learning process, acquiring of new skills academic
as well as non academic and over and above, always have the right attitude. I
wish you success in all your future endeavours.
Good Luck to
all of you,
Jagdish H
