Engineering in India is still theoretical level. The courses in various engineering programmes are totally theoretical basis. The applied knowledge is not at all taught in many
engineering colleges. If you g to engineering colleges, you will find the laboratories
are in locked condition throughout the years. This is a common sight in many
colleges. Moreover, students also lack inquisitiveness to learn the things
practically. After 13 years of experience in the engineering education field ,
I have hardly seen students’ enthusiasm regarding laboratories and any kind of
project work. The projects are just redundant copy paste from youtube videos. The lack to enthusiasm is not only evident in
students, it has sipped into the minds of teaching fraternity also due to the surrounding
culture. The problem has magnified over the years. As a result, we are lagging
in innovation and innovation led entrepreneurship. The developed countries
always innovate and manufacture goods. For the goods, they find the overseas
markets and get rich. Indian engineers have to be more practical oriented
rather than theoretical based. In coming
years, students have to be more skillful practically. Especially, the engineers
have to adapt aggressively.
