Dear Karthik,
… lotsa “firsts” last sem on campus. The start of a campus
placement programme like the one in Pilani, mock
interviews were
conducted by the Campus Placement Cell and 21
companies came and recruited most of the final
year students. Also had Techofest 2004 akin to
APOGEE. Some cool gizmos like a “Smart Home”
(automation of a home using the internet!) and a
lie detector were on display.
54 students graduated and we had an elaborate ceremony for them
– you guys really should consider starting
these.
The institute has also started a Practice School Programme with
the first batch of students doing quite well
with many receiving offers
from their companies. Let’s hope the scenario
remains equally promising when I do my PS.
That’s it for now! Take care,
M. (BITS, Dubai)
