Once christened core of engineering, Electrical, Mechanical and Civil Engineering professions have today lost the glitters which were earlier attached with these core professions. Today very rarely students opt for these professions.
Information technology or computer science, we all know today is a buzzword rather it has been the buzzword for last almost a decade and a half. Now a days these erstwhile core professions are selected by students who fail to get Admissions related fields of computers, the institutions that have little known in the country like mushrooms .. There is absolutely no doubt about the way computers have contributed to the growth of our economy or in a larger perspective on our society. Computers have helped us in many ways. It is stored and analyzed all data, information, principles and ideas and decisions more scientifically to assimilate all the variables that may have no humanever taken.
The principles of programming once fed in to processor have enabled it to take decision with unwavering accuracy. Sheer accuracy with which it can keep on taking the decisions where an individual may blink or may take decision which can later be proved otherwise, is we all know. For last 20 years computers science has been the number one branch in Engineering colleges. The dominance has only recently been threatened by new courses which have spurted on horizons like Biotechnology, Nuclear and Aerospace Engineering, etc. But these courses require computers to come. Saga does not end here. In recent years the number of graduates who have completed other branches of engineering, always attached to your computer immediately after the train passes. The percentage of remaining outputs pass, could not get the hook that was the software or the hardware arena derisory.
Such was the dominance ofComputer and information technologies in basic sectors once described that, even with the Indian Institute of Technology in placement, decide if this scene COMPUTER majors, will not this campus for recruitment in specific years involved. Such situations have witnessed in 2002 and 2003, when the mini-multinational had hiccups in its growth forecasts, and decided to go in for rescue and stayed away from the campus recruitment. Today, there arewill rarely find an area which is untouched by computer revolution. We are today in such a transition phase where we can feel and experience the changes which are taking place around us at breakneck speed. Even today you have servers and backup servers which are storing banking information for the entire world. World has come closer, with telecommunication becoming cheaper by the day.
You are now well connected even when you are on the move. With so much dependence in our life on these gizmos, we have started relying on these pieces of hardware much more than our minds. This has resulted in our minds becoming more and rustier. How many in today's world carry out mental calculations. We tend to start looking for calculators of similar devices even for summing up two or three two digit numbers. In our old education system, mental mathematics used to get very high prominence. Now today, we can rarely find personalities like Shakuntala Devi in our midst, who would have blurted out to answer after answer to mathematical problems. Designing a system used in the past to be a big task.
Designers used to slog to get through many days and months to a building on several floors, a super thermal power plant, or air craft. Now this type of complex design has a degree easier, Manning, a terminal located in a business process outsourcing company has been assigned. With the use of design principles and logic of computers, a 12 ° Standard output pastoperator today can run and design very complex building, Boilers, turbines, even a full thermal power plant, roads, transportation network, nuclear plant, transformer, switch-gears etc. One has to simply key in a few parameters for which computers will give prompts and within minutes you will have an optimized design of a super thermal power plant on your table for which otherwise you would have been slogging over months to balance out various parameters. One of the reasons for flourishing of Outsourcing as an option is standardization.
In medicine, an area that was when the computer is not able to do a lot of progress. This has to standardize because of the number of variables and the inability of the human body reacts. But the undaunted efforts go in the medical field to win by experts, but on condition that the difficulties that programmers do not, standardization of inputs for the diagnosis of medical experts can not be translated into algorithms on ato one. However in medical field information technology's involvement has been in compiling and keeping data and in deciphering logic and working of medical instruments. India has progressed leaps and bounds in almost all the domains of INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY field. India who has vastly benefited from IT revolution, himself is a leading outsourcing firm these days. Recent statistics from International Labor Organization puts India at fifth position in outsourcing.
Like other countries Business Process Outsourcing in India itself are mushrooming and their growth rate has been phenomenal. Beauty of outsourcing is that now you can find an arts graduate preparing offers for a standard super thermal power plant or for that matter designing a substation. All this has happened because the variables have been documented and designs standardized. This development has weaned away young sharp minds from core engineering branches. As a matter of fact, these core engineering branches have made the world what we see today. They are in fact core of our existence and therefore have to be nurtured with best brains. Information technology or computer science has developed on basis of inputs or logic provided by these branches. We must make efforts to keep these cores of engineering bubbling with new ideas. This can only happen when young minds are attracted towards these branches. The infrastructure sector is going to be hit very badly. Today In addition, the infrastructure sector in view of acute shortage of quality labor.
It 's a great need to strengthen our network infrastructure, we must also try to stop this trend. Guardians of our industry must ensure that not too much difference between salaries, which are the two areas will be served. Further you need to "Fading Brigade R & D, as developments in technology to ever listen to impress us. India R & D spending as a percentage of GDP thancompared to developed countries is quite less. During last government's regime India has committed to take it up to at least 2% of GDP. United Sates today has spending on R&D near about 3% as percentage of GDP. India today is growing economy and spending on R&D in a growing economy has to reflect a higher percentage. Even China's spending on R&D is quite less as compared to US. If these countries have to sustain their economy's growth, they must spend more on R&D. These core engineering professions then can get a lift. This is I suppose the only way to arrest this alarming trend.
