'An Education' - 1

I am sure you must have heard these.. Bachelor of Technology or Master of Technology. Well, are they really masters of technology??! The answer can be something like 'may be' or 'may not be'. But nowadays one out of every ten persons we met at a town will be bachelor or ,aster of these so called technology, I assume; may be I am exaggerating. Their reasons to pursue this dream can be anything from dignity in society, security in finance, safety in job or may be simply following the flow. Now I am not into these reasons, but into 'An Education'

You know, it takes a complete four years to prepare some as a bachelor in Engineering. In order to pre-prepare for all these preparations, it will take a minimum of 12 years of Education!! So only after a continuous 16 years of education only someone is becoming an engineer. And what is the real product , that comes out, after these long manufacturing processes??! A good for nothing- who assumed to be knowing everything, but know nothing guy??! [ there are exceptions in everything in this world..  if there are more than 90% of exceptions or so.. I aaam soorrry for making such a statement ..]. I dont want to give you a generalization , but in most of the cases, a young graduate- professional or non-professional- coming directly out from a college is not job ready. He/she may or  may not know all the theories, but... where to apply, when to apply, how to apply..- no clues about all these "w-h" questions. People scoring high or above average marks do not mean that they have a superior knowledge. It just means that they knew the answers and at that moment of examination they clearly remembered it. [ I am not into malpractices, guys. 'coz here i 'd like to mention the casese of straight forward guys only.]

So what is our whole education system about??!!
Is that 'an education'???!!

(contd.. next week...)

It is true that our education system mostly lacks practical side when compared to the US educational system. It would be good if we have incorporated more practical oriented education. But students here should never tell this as an excuse to neglect studies. We should make the best use of it by building a thorough theoretical base and applying it on our own when ever we get an opportunity.
