Dressing Neatly
Let’s say you are going for an interview tomorrow. You have prepared yourself well for the occasion – anticipating the questions and getting ready the answers – but have you given a thought to what you will wear? If you have not peeped into your wardrobe yet, it’s time to take a real hard look now.
Your application’s fate depends not just on how well you answer the interview questions, but also on how well you project yourself physically. The first impression your interviewer makes about you is based on the way you look, and you know what they say about first impressions. “The way a person dresses is the single biggest non-verbal communication you make about yourself.”
“Although proper dressing by itself will not get you the job, a poor dress sense may exclude you from further consideration”. Besides, given two equally good applications, the company may choose to hire the person who is dressed more professionally. Here are some tips to give you a head start.
Along with dress code a sense of colour and style combination is also explained. Hair styles and use of accesaries is another area which needs good attention. During the MOCK sessions, before first placement drive, students are made to follow the professional dress code and the checking of it will be done by the seniors, who are already selected in top companies.
MEN
Long-sleeved shirt and dark slacks. White is still the safest and the best color for shirts. The colour is also appropriate for our tropical weather. Also acceptable: pale shades such as beige, blue, and other pastels.
Tuck in the shirt and do not roll up the sleeves. Never wear a short-sleeved shirt to an interview or any business purpose. Wearing a short-sleeve shirt will destroy your executive image.
Ties: Optional. But if you do wear one, choose a conservative pattern. Solids, small polka dots, diagonal stripes, small repeating shapes, subtle plaids and paisleys are all acceptable.
Belts: Belts should match your shoes. Those with smaller buckles with squared lines look more professional.
Socks: Black socks are the best, followed by blue or gray, depending on your attire. Never wear white socks! Check your sock length, too- -no skin should show when you sit down or cross your legs. Shoes. Black or burgundy leather shoes with laces on them, because tassel loafers are very casual. Other suitable colors are brown, cordovan and navy. Hair. Keep neat, short and preferably parted on the side. And shave off all those facial hair.
Accessories: As much as possible, use folders to hold copies of your resume. Make sure that all your certificates (original & at least 3 copies Xerox) are with you.
WOMEN
Light colour Punjabi suits, with the chunni preferably pinned, (trying to fix the chunni is a distraction in the interview process).
Hair: Hair longer than shoulder length should be worn up or pulled back. Don’t let it fall in front of your face and don’t keep trying to fix it during the interview. Avoid large hair ornaments and trendy hairstyles.
Make-up: Be subtle; natural is the key word. Light shades of lip coloring and nail polish are recommended.
Jewellery: Be conservative. Studs of gold, silver or pearls are best. Do away with gaudy fashion jewelers, and those that clank and make noise when one moves.
Accessories: Folders and bags should blend well with the total professional look.

The Second Ever Green Branch
Civil engineers are members of one of the oldest engineering disciplines and can specialize in many things , including water management, construction, transportation and geo-technical, structural, or environmental engineering. Civil engineering projects can focus on the design and supervision of the construction of roads, buildings, dams, bridges, airports, tunnels, or water treatment and sewage systems. This specialized profession can easily be turned into a lucrative career with predictable hours, making it easy for civil engineers to provide time for their families. Here are the top five reasons for one to become a civil engineer to help him/her decide this as right career for him/her.
Start Work with Just a Bachelor's Degree
A civil engineer can start career with just a bachelor’s degree from an accredited university and no additional education. New graduates will work with more experienced engineers to receive the job training in their specialized field allowing one to better relate the theory learned in the class room to more real and tangible world situations..
Great Pay
Most civil engineers work 9 to 5 hours at a firm or government agency for 40 hours a week, though some jobs require more time from their employers depending on the phase of the project. The basic pay, even for a fresher who pursued civil engineering is more compared to other branches. Benefits will vary from one employer to other, but most will receive basic benefits such as paid vacation, sick leave, and health
insurance. Many government agencies also offer retirement packages to their employees.
Growing job Market
The need for additional civil engineers on public works and private projects will create many new job opportunities in these rocky economic times. In a recent poll, the demand for civil engineers is projected to grow from 278,000 employees in 2009 to 3, 45,000 employees in 2019. That is a 24 percent increase in the demand for civil engineers in ten years!
Exciting Work
Civil Engineers must take on many responsibilities that can make them work, exciting, engaging, and never tedious. Many civil engineers do such tasks as calculating construction costs, designing infrastructure, forecasting opportunities how long a project will take from start to finish, monitoring potential natural disasters and their effect on the project, and checking the city and state regulations.
Enlightens on leadership qualities
Civil Engineers are the only professionals who work hand in hand with both the extreme classes namely uneducated labor class .
The highly educated professionals which will enlighten them on the leadership qualities vested in an individual.
Civil Engineering is the key to many of the issues
affecting our lives today. They solve problems, design, build and
maintain our living and working spaces. You might design a new stadium,
work on a local by-pass or railway line, assess a damaged structure,
provide immediate and safe drinking water to a refugee camp, or manage a
multi-million pound construction project.
In fact, the entire infrastructural framework of a modern nation is the creation of civil engineers. The credit of building mighty power plants, dams, airports, sea ports, highways, inland waterways and industrial plants goes to civil engineers. These professionals are also engaged in building an unending array of urban structures such as commercial complexes, skyscrapers, tunnels, bridges, roads, urban rapid transport systems, sports stadium, aerodromes, water works, harbours.
A good Civil engineer must have a strong engineering knowledge combined with excellent supervisory and administrative skills. The planning part of their work involves site investigation, feasibility studies, creating solutions to complications that may occur and the actual designing of structures.
Opportunities are aplenty for higher studies also, which also has many takers. One could go for M.Tech. or MS abroad after B.Tech. Students who have passed both B.Tech. and M.Tech. are appointed as consultants in construction industry. A structural consultant should have higher qualifications. Entrepreneurship is another area where civil engineers could try their hand.
Working domain
Most of the times, civil engineers work in teams or in coordination with many other engineers. They can find work as a supervisor of a construction site or a managerial position or in design, research as well as teaching in government services or private concerns. They can also work as independent consultants.
Eligibility
The minimum eligibility for doing undergraduate program i.e. BE/B.Tech in Civil Engineering is + 2 Science with Physics, Chemistry and Math’s. The selection is generally made on the basis of entrance tests (e.g. IITJEE, AIEEE, BITSAT etc.) conducted at both national and state level. One can also continue his/her study further by joining ME/M.Tech programs offered by various engineering colleges/ universities including the IITs and NITs.
Job Opportunity
Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including works such as bridges, roads, canals, dams and buildings. Civil engineering is the oldest engineering discipline after military engineering, and it was defined to distinguish it from military engineering. It is traditionally broken into several sub-disciplines including environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, transportation engineering, water resources engineering, materials engineering, coastal engineering, surveying, and construction engineering. Civil engineering takes place on all levels: in the public sector from municipal through to federal levels, and in the private sector from individual homeowners through to international companies.

Higher Studies
Civil
Engineering is one of the primitive engineering fields which involves
projecting, scheming and implementing structural bodies. Amongst all
branches of engineering, the range and application of civil engineering
is the broadest and the most visible. From being a less fancied branch
of study some years ago, civil engineering is back in the spotlight |
In fact, the entire infrastructural framework of a modern nation is the creation of civil engineers. The credit of building mighty power plants, dams, airports, sea ports, highways, inland waterways and industrial plants goes to civil engineers. These professionals are also engaged in building an unending array of urban structures such as commercial complexes, skyscrapers, tunnels, bridges, roads, urban rapid transport systems, sports stadium, aerodromes, water works, harbours.
A good Civil engineer must have a strong engineering knowledge combined with excellent supervisory and administrative skills. The planning part of their work involves site investigation, feasibility studies, creating solutions to complications that may occur and the actual designing of structures.
Opportunities are aplenty for higher studies also, which also has many takers. One could go for M.Tech. or MS abroad after B.Tech. Students who have passed both B.Tech. and M.Tech. are appointed as consultants in construction industry. A structural consultant should have higher qualifications. Entrepreneurship is another area where civil engineers could try their hand.
Working domain
Most of the times, civil engineers work in teams or in coordination with many other engineers. They can find work as a supervisor of a construction site or a managerial position or in design, research as well as teaching in government services or private concerns. They can also work as independent consultants.
Eligibility
The minimum eligibility for doing undergraduate program i.e. BE/B.Tech in Civil Engineering is + 2 Science with Physics, Chemistry and Math’s. The selection is generally made on the basis of entrance tests (e.g. IITJEE, AIEEE, BITSAT etc.) conducted at both national and state level. One can also continue his/her study further by joining ME/M.Tech programs offered by various engineering colleges/ universities including the IITs and NITs.
Job Opportunity
Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including works such as bridges, roads, canals, dams and buildings. Civil engineering is the oldest engineering discipline after military engineering, and it was defined to distinguish it from military engineering. It is traditionally broken into several sub-disciplines including environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, transportation engineering, water resources engineering, materials engineering, coastal engineering, surveying, and construction engineering. Civil engineering takes place on all levels: in the public sector from municipal through to federal levels, and in the private sector from individual homeowners through to international companies.
The First Ever Green Branch Mechanical
The research areas and their key subjects of focus are:
Mechanics
Modelling, experimentation, and computation (MMEC) – Advances the formulation of physical and mathematical theories for representing the thermo-mechanical response of natural and engineering materials (solids and fluids) at the Nano, micro, and macro-scales using modelling, experimentation, and computational methodologies. Develop novel computational tools for the robust design and optimization of the variety of thermo-mechanically coupled processes used to manufacture components and devices from these materials.
Advances the designs and methods used to manufacture products, to precision consumer products.
Develop automated systems and the robotic technologies which might be used in medicine and in space and sea exploration.
Fundamental and applied research in thermodynamics, reactive flows and combustion, heat and mass transport, micro and nanotechnologies, photovoltaic, off-shore wind energy, engines and transportation, cryogenics, and efficient buildings. Focus on high efficiency low emission systems, CO2 capture and renewable energy.
Mechanical engineering varies from Industrial engineering and Production Engineering
Mechanical engineering aims to technical or machine-oriented aspects such as design, operation and maintenance. Industrial Engineering aims at human resources in companies in areas such as planning, production, organization, methods.
Industrial engineering is a branch of engineering dealing with the optimization of complexprocesses or systems It is concerned with the development, improvement, implementation and evaluation of integrated systems of people, money, knowledge, information, equipment, energy, materials, analysis and synthesis, as well as the mathematical, physical and social sciences together with the principles and methods of engineering design to specify, predict, and evaluate the results to be obtained from such systems or processes. Its underlying concepts overlap considerably with certain business-oriented disciplines such as operations management, but the engineering side tends to emphasize extensive mathematical proficiency and usage of quantitative methods.
Depending on the sub specialties involved, industrial engineering may also be known as, or overlap with, operations management, management science, operations research, systems engineering, manufacturing engineering, ergonomics or human factors engineering, safety engineering, or others, depending on the viewpoint or motives of the user. For example, in health care, the engineers known as health management engineers or health systems engineers are, in essence, industrial engineers by another name.
Production engineering is a combination of manufacturing technology with management science. A production engineer typically has a wide knowledge of engineering practices and is aware of the management challenges related to production. The goal is to accomplish the production process in the smoothest, most-judicious and most-economic way.
Production engineering encompasses the application of castings, machining processing, joining processes, metal cutting & tool design, metrology, machine tools, machining systems, automation, jigs and fixtures, and die and mould design and material science and design of automobile parts and machine designing and manufacturing. Production engineering also overlaps substantially with manufacturing engineering and industrial engineering.
In industry, once the design is realized, production engineering concepts regarding work study, ergonomics, operation research, manufacturing management, materials management, production planning, etc., play important roles in efficient production processes. These deal with integrated design and efficient planning of the entire manufacturing system, which is becoming increasingly complex with the emergence of sophisticated production methods and control systems.
Every branch of engineering has its own specific importance in industry and to the development of it.

Electronics Engineering ECE
Opportunity in this highly sophisticated and advanced branch of engineering is just immense.Electronics is now a part of our everyday life, from your pocket FM radio to televisions, computers, mobile phones and even the high-end satellites that process and sends images.
Electronics and Communication Engineering is a field that deals with the design, manufacture, maintenance and operation of various electronic devices and communications equipment. As we are living in the age of advancements in electronics, plenty of career opportunities are available in this field for aspiring engineers.
In the field of electronic engineering, engineers design and test circuits that use the electromagnetic properties of electrical components such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes and transistors to achieve a particular functionality. The tuner circuit, which allows the user of a radio to filter out all but a single station, is just one example of such a circuit.
In designing an integrated circuit, electronics engineers first construct circuit schematics that specify the electrical components and describe the interconnections between them. When completed, VLSI engineers convert the schematics into actual layouts, which map the layers of various conductor and semiconductor materials needed to construct the circuit. The conversion from schematics to layouts can be done by software (see electronic design automation) but very often requires human fine-tuning to decrease space and power consumption. Once the layout is complete, it can be sent to a fabrication plant for manufacturing.
Integrated circuits and other electrical components can then be assembled on printed circuit boards to form more complicated circuits. Today, printed circuit boards are found in most electronic devices including televisions, computers and audio players.
Electronic engineering has many subfields. This section describes some of the most popular subfields in electronic engineering although there are engineers who focus exclusively on one subfield, there are also many who focus on a combination of subfields.
Signal processing deals with the analysis and manipulation of signals. Signals can be either analog, in which case the signal varies continuously according to the information, or digital, in which case the signal varies according to a series of discrete values representing the information.
For analog signals, signal processing may involve the amplification and filtering of audio signals for audio equipment or the modulation and demodulation of signals for telecommunications. For digital signals, signal processing may involve the compression, error checking and error detection of digital signals.
Telecommunications engineering deals with the transmission of information across a channel such as a co-axial cable, optical fiber or free space.
Transmissions across free space require information to be encoded in a carrier wave in order to shift the information to a carrier frequency suitable for transmission, this is known as modulation. Popular analog modulation techniques include amplitude modulation and frequency modulation. The choice of modulation affects the cost and performance of a system and these two factors must be balanced carefully by the engineer.
Once the transmission characteristics of a system are determined, telecommunication engineers design the transmitters and receivers needed for such systems. These two are sometimes combined to form a two-way communication device known as a transceiver. A key consideration in the design of transmitters is their power consumption as this is closely related to their signal strength. If the signal strength of a transmitter is insufficient the signal's information will be corrupted by noise.
Control engineering has a wide range of applications from the flight and propulsion systems of commercial airplanes to the cruise control present in many modern cars. It also plays an important role in industrial automation.
Control engineers often utilize feedback when designing control systems. For example, in a car with cruise control the vehicle's speed is continuously monitored and fed back to the system which adjusts the engine's power output accordingly. Where there is regular feedback, control theory can be used to determine how the system responds to such feedback.
Instrumentation engineering deals with the design of devices to measure physical quantities such as pressure, flow and temperature. These devices are known as instrumentation.
The design of such instrumentation requires a good understanding of physics that often extends beyond electromagnetic theory. For example, radar guns use the Doppler effect to measure the speed of oncoming vehicles. Similarly, thermocouples use the Peltier-Seebeck effect to measure the temperature difference between two points.
Often instrumentation is not used by itself, but instead as the sensors of larger electrical systems. For example, a thermocouple might be used to help ensure a furnace's temperature remains constant. For this reason, instrumentation engineering is often viewed as the counterpart of control engineering.
Computer engineering deals with the design of computers and computer systems. This may involve the design of new computer hardware, the design of PDAs or the use of computers to control an industrial plant. Development of embedded systems—systems made for specific tasks (e.g., mobile phones)—are also included in this field. This field includes the micro controller and its applications. Computer engineers may also work on a system's software. However, the design of complex software systems is often the domain of software engineering, which is usually considered a separate discipline.
VLSI Design Engineering VLSI stands for very large scale integration. It deals with fabrication of ICs and various electronics components.
Career Prospects

The tuner circuit, which allows the user of a radio to filter out all but a single station, is just one example of such a circuit.
In designing an integrated circuit, electronics engineers first construct circuit schematics that specify the electrical components and describe the interconnections between them. When completed, VLSI engineers convert the schematics into actual layouts, which map the layers of various conductor and semiconductor materials needed to construct the circuit. The conversion from schematics to layouts can be done by software (see electronic design automation) but very often requires human fine-tuning to decrease space and power consumption. Once the layout is complete, it can be sent to a fabrication plant for manufacturing.
Integrated circuits and other electrical components can then be assembled on printed circuit boards to form more complicated circuits. Today, printed circuit boards are found in most electronic devices including televisions, computers and audio players.
Electronic engineering has many subfields. This section describes some of the most popular subfields in electronic engineering although there are engineers who focus exclusively on one subfield, there are also many who focus on a combination of subfields.
Signal processing deals with the analysis and manipulation of signals. Signals can be either analog, in which case the signal varies continuously according to the information, or digital, in which case the signal varies according to a series of discrete values representing the information.
For analog signals, signal processing may involve the amplification and filtering of audio signals for audio equipment or the modulation and demodulation of signals for telecommunications. For digital signals, signal processing may involve the compression, error checking and error detection of digital signals.
Telecommunications engineering deals with the transmission of information across a channel such as a co-axial cable, optical fiber or free space.
Transmissions across free space require information to be encoded in a carrier wave in order to shift the information to a carrier frequency suitable for transmission, this is known as modulation. Popular analog modulation techniques include amplitude modulation and frequency modulation. The choice of modulation affects the cost and performance of a system and these two factors must be balanced carefully by the engineer.
Once the transmission characteristics of a system are determined, telecommunication engineers design the transmitters and receivers needed for such systems. These two are sometimes combined to form a two-way communication device known as a transceiver. A key consideration in the design of transmitters is their power consumption as this is closely related to their signal strength. If the signal strength of a transmitter is insufficient the signal's information will be corrupted by noise.
Control engineering has a wide range of applications from the flight and propulsion systems of commercial airplanes to the cruise control present in many modern cars. It also plays an important role in industrial automation.
Control engineers often utilize feedback when designing control systems. For example, in a car with cruise control the vehicle's speed is continuously monitored and fed back to the system which adjusts the engine's power output accordingly. Where there is regular feedback, control theory can be used to determine how the system responds to such feedback.
Instrumentation engineering deals with the design of devices to measure physical quantities such as pressure, flow and temperature. These devices are known as instrumentation.
The design of such instrumentation requires a good understanding of physics that often extends beyond electromagnetic theory. For example, radar guns use the Doppler effect to measure the speed of oncoming vehicles. Similarly, thermocouples use the Peltier-Seebeck effect to measure the temperature difference between two points.
Often instrumentation is not used by itself, but instead as the sensors of larger electrical systems. For example, a thermocouple might be used to help ensure a furnace's temperature remains constant. For this reason, instrumentation engineering is often viewed as the counterpart of control engineering.
Computer engineering deals with the design of computers and computer systems. This may involve the design of new computer hardware, the design of PDAs or the use of computers to control an industrial plant. Development of embedded systems—systems made for specific tasks (e.g., mobile phones)—are also included in this field. This field includes the micro controller and its applications. Computer engineers may also work on a system's software. However, the design of complex software systems is often the domain of software engineering, which is usually considered a separate discipline.
VLSI Design Engineering VLSI stands for very large scale integration. It deals with fabrication of ICs and various electronics components.
