The field of
electronics and communication includes two vast domains which are complete and
integrate different disciplines like electronics design, Integrated circuit
design, automation, robotics, mobile communication, microwave engineering, RF
engineering etc., such a multiplicity in these domains provides a bunch of
career options to the students pursuing course in this field. With this much
choices and opportunities any one can get a better job and a stable career.
But, the facts are different. A report in a
national daily says,”75 percent engineering
students in India are unemployable”. The reason behind the situation is the
absence of the required skill-set for being employable. Students lack the
skills and knowledge they are expected to acquire during their academic course
even after practical sessions in college labs and non-customized industrial
trainings.
One should think twice before applying for
industrial internship or industrial training course keeping in mind that the
motive behind training is to “impart practical knowledge, know-how of the
industry, work ethics and most importantly the skills required to the
trainees”.
Choosing the right place for internship is
crucial as it is an opportunity to engage with the profession to which the
student aspire in a realistic work
environment they also appreciate and understand the practical application of
their academic program and work with professional mentors and begin to build
networks within their profession.
So, with a proper internship he or she is
trained to be job-ready, even before completion of the course, thus increasing
the student’s employment prospects.00A0
