ONLY FOR COMPUTER SCIENCE

Another Titanic

(Do you know who is sailing?)

                On so many discussions with my friends and colleagues, I  think, very soon computer’s (computer science students, faculty, engineers etc..) ship will be drowned.

           I want to share a few things with all. I am working as a lecturer in an engineering college in computer science Department. Sometimes I may teach non computers(EEE, ECE, BME, MECH etc..) also like OOP through java, Computer Organization, DBMS, Operating Systems etc..  for example if they are in final year 90% of them don’t even know   “what is a variable, how to declare a variable etc..” . For campus recruitment they will prepare well and get jobs in software companies. Because, basically good rankers only join ECE, MECH etc.. After they get the job, company gives training. Anyone can easily do their job after the training. Student’s  parents also want to join their children to join in ECE, MECH,….  And they will mentally prepare them to get a job in a good software company.

           If u people think that its an insult for them, its absolutely wrong. Computers are not their stream. I even don’t blame software companies also. Because,  every one  does business for profit, not for social service. But, think once, if for one year these all companies recruit  students who studied computer’s.  Next year all good rankers will join only in CSE branch.

Who will take the responsibility? I know that ship is going to drown, but I am too far away from the ship. The only thing I can do is, to share  my opinion with you all. But who is already working in software companies in a higher position can discuss with  higher authorities. You people can do something for computers . My opinion is not that recruit only computer students. You can increase the ratio.

       I heard that nowadays B TECH/M TECH Computer Graduates going for School interviews to teach LKG and UKG students, they are going for home tuition. But once think about the student’s skill and  give opportunity to do software job for at least  3 months, if they are not capable fire them.

        Any how i am not generalizing this. it is my opinion, others may have different opinion. If your opinion matches with mine then please think about it. Because students other than Computers have several opportunities. But computer students have only one that is “ SOFTWARE”.

who can do something   for upcoming computer students please encourage them, and who cannot help,  please share this.

Don’t think that all who  got  job and good salary is safe
