At present India is facing shortage of Civil Engineeres. And Goverment should also think to raise the intake of Civil Engineers. Now a question arise in my mind that if Govenment raise the seats Intake capacity will resolve the problem?. I think it is not a solution for resolving the shortcomings of engineers.
Why Shortage?. It is true that the demand of Civil branch has been increased in due course in comparision to decade during 1991-2000. At the time of early ninetyies civil branch was considered to be dull in JOB point of view. Only good employer was PWD and some other government sector. But there was stagnation in Govt sector.
Present Boom in the branch is due to arrival of Private sector builders, and NHAI etc. Still number of seats are same as usual, But the main factor is......
Education of CIVIL Engineering needs very good infrastructure and well equiped laboratory, which could be afforeded by only good Government Institutes only. And Government Institutes gives the addmission only to Creamy layer of students. And these good students gets good glamorious job in IT sector irrespective to there branch.
as per AICTE 97% of total applications for new Engineering colleges are for only five branch of engineering i.e. Computer Science, Electronics. IT, Electronics and Communication, Electrical. Because these requires least infrastructure to run a good business.
It is very amazing to listen that more that 70% of civil Engineers from reputeted Engineering College engaged in Non civil engineering job. This is the actual shortage. If Givernment increase the seats in these collages, Increased volume will again moved to IT sector due huge payments.
SOLUTION- AICTE should make a condition for new Institute to Introduce CIVIL Engineering.
Govenrment should instruct to Engineering college to allow the campus for only those Companies who provide job only as per qualification. This will utilise the efforts made by the Institute for preparing a CIVIL Engineer.
