One can choose any course or subject considering one's individual aptitude, interest, institutional infrastructure or facilities and quality of education, relevance of the course or subject, further higher study possibilities, job opportunities, career development possibilities, family income and so on. Before choosing a particular course, you should at least try to understand all aspects of the course and related career opportunities.
Tool and die making
If you have passed the Plus Two examinations with 70 per cent marks with mathematics, physics and chemistry as optional subjects, you can choose mechanical or production engineering branches at the B.Tech. level and opt for a higher study in tool die and mould design or tool Engineering at the postgraduate level, which will lead to a better career in the relevant areas - such as machine and tool manufacturing industries. There will be more demand for postgraduate degree holders in tool, die and design or tool engineering than diploma holders in these branches.
Prominent institutes
The Central Institute of Tool Design (CITD) is a premier institute in Asia providing specialised training in tool engineering. The institute has a well-equipped tool room with sophisticated machines. It has a metrology laboratory and calibration centre to maintain quality control. In addition to the tool room, the CITD has a design department, automated process control unit, computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing centre with the latest hardware and software and a library and documentation centre.
The institute has a Postgraduate course in Tool, Die & Mould Design (PGTD), which is recognised by the Government of India. This one-and-a-half-year course is open to BE/ B.Tech. (Mechanical / Production Engineering) candidates. Age should be below 30 years. A five-year relaxation is allowed for SC/ST students. Students appearing for final qualifying engineering degree examination can also apply.
Of the total 30 seats 16 are filled through an entrance test and 14 seats are reserved for candidates sponsored by the industry. Applicants who have qualified for GATE should clear the entrance test conducted for the PGTD course in Hyderabad. The CITD also conducts a Postgraduate Diploma CAD / CAM course in Tool Engineering of one-year duration. Mechanical /production engineering graduates, below 30 years are eligible for admission. Intake is 40. Selection is through an entrance test. This course focuses on CAD and CAM manufacturing. More details can be collected either from the website www.citdindia.org or from the Training Department, Central Institute of Tool Design, Balanagar, Hyderabad - 500 037
Graduates in Mechanical Engineering can pursue M.Tech. with specialisation in machine design/tool engineering/production design and manufacturing and so on.
The Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, Hauzkhas, New Delhi - 110 016 has an interdisciplinary M.Tech. programme in Tool and Technology.
Career in Photonics
You can choose the five-year integrated M.Sc. in Photonics course conducted by Cusat, (www.photonics.cusat.edu ) (Phone : 0484 - 257 7540). It has good job potential as photonics is an emerging area. Those who have passed Plus Two/ equivalent examination with 50 per cent marks in mathematics, physics, and chemistry put together and minimum 50 per cent marks in mathematics are eligible for admission. Selection is through the Common Admission Test conducted by the Cusat.
As you are eligible, it would be a good idea to join this course. Photonics is a high-tech subject that has evolved as a result of the fusion of optical technology with electronics. Photonics has made its impact in areas such as communication, computing and control as well as in other fields such as medicine, photonics industry, defence and entertainment.
It is a cutting-edge technology area and those who successfully complete this course and go for further qualifications in the relevant field, can land good jobs in the field of fibre optical systems and components.
Recent advances in photonics for communication, imaging, healthcare and medicine defence, optics and electronics have contributed to spectacular new applications in every sphere. For more details visit www.photonicsemployment.com , www.optics.org .
The Cusat is one of the few universities in the country provides facilities for research, development and teaching in photonics and related fields.
The Department of Opto Electronics under the University of Kerala, Kariavattom, Thiruvananthapuram - 695 581, offers opportunities to study M.Tech. Opto Electronics and Laser Technology, M.Phil. and Ph.D. The University of Madras also conducts M.Sc. Photonics and Biophotonics courses. More details can be obtained from the website www.unom.ac.in .
