Allahabad: Prof RC Tripathi, Dean Resource Generation, Indian Institute of Information Technology said nearly two lakh jobs were available in IT sector where highly skilled persons were required. He was speaking at a finishing School program for engineering graduates at Jhalwa campus.

Prof G C Nandi, Dean Students in the IIIT-A inaugurated the program  said this course would provide an opportunity to graduate students of different engineering colleges to develop soft, managerial and communication skills in addition to technical skills. This would prepare them to face the varied and dynamics needs of the industry and would supplement in understanding of business practices, commitment to quality, and timeliness with the aim to improve leadership quality and team spirit. As per the directives of MHRD, Government of India, the finishing course was being offered to suitable candidates to the IT industry and helping young graduates find jobs through appropriate training.  The purpose of this training is to enhance and sharpen the required skills among engineering graduates and make them employable in the IT & ITES industry.

Dr Shekhar Verma, program coordinator said that the course structure was designed to address the basic requirements of the Indian IT industry. The subjects had been chosen with a view to impart knowledge and training in areas that are of maximum need of the industry and are usually the weakest link in the repertoire of a student. The course curriculum covered the topics like Computer Programming, Data structures, Data Base Management System & Data Mining, Computer Networks, Basics Communication and managerial skills. 

Course on Robotics and Embedded Systems begins

Allahabad: An intensive course on Robotics and Embedded Systems organized by Indian Institute of Information Technology has begun at Jhalwa. Around 52 delegates across the country and as well as from Thailand are taking part in two week work shop.

Speaking at the inaugural function, Students Dean and Co-coordinator Prof. G.C. Nandi said that IIITA had been conceived with the ambitious objective of developing professional expertise and skilled manpower in information technology and related areas. The expertise would enable the country exploit efficiently the emerging opportunities and meet the economic challenges that thrown up by the rapid global IT revolution. He said the robotics and embedded systems were the state of the art technologies with potential for building very high degree of automation. They had a variety of practical application suitable for both the amateurs and professionals.

Course Coordinator Prof. Radhakrishnan said that robotics was one of the fertile areas with many applications and required processors for implementing different aspects of Robotics.” Embedded Systems tell us how to use a processor or the computing element into the above systems to implement desired specific functionality that we seek in the system. The process in the embedded system could be built in many ways using the existing microprocessors/microcontrollers and programming them or build it on an FPGA platform.” The program will conclude on June 2.
