This document discusses options for electrical engineering graduates after completing their B.E. degree. It notes that there is often a gap between educational curriculum and professional goals. To bridge this gap, it recommends pursuing a post-graduate degree, applying for apprenticeships, or preparing for competitive exams. A post-graduate degree can provide research experience and improve qualifications for jobs that require more applied knowledge. Research experience allows one to contribute solutions, learn from others, and give back to society. The document emphasizes that strong literature research skills, modeling abilities, programming, and validation are essential for any research work.

6. Possible ways to bridge the gap between
your education and professional goals as
an Engineer….
1/20/2016 Shankersinh Vaghela Bapu Institute of Technology 6
• Revision of fundamental subjects
• Correlate technical aspects with field applications
• Apply for some apprenticeship
• Appear for competitive exams
• Join post graduate course in any good institute

7. Why should I join post graduate
course ?
1/20/2016 Shankersinh Vaghela Bapu Institute of Technology 7
• Research aspect is added in education
• Field applicability is involved in syllabus
• There is no instant job opportunity after BE
• Chance of qualification improvement
• Parallel knowledge gaining is possible

8. What is research?
1/20/2016 Shankersinh Vaghela Bapu Institute of Technology 8
• The systematic investigation into and study of materials/source
in order to establish facts and reach new conclusions.

9. Why should I have exposure to
research?
1/20/2016 Shankersinh Vaghela Bapu Institute of Technology 9
• Observations of others’ contribution as engineers
• Indirect learning and self development
• To make the thinking broad
• Application of my own idea for little improvement in existing sy
• Partial payback to society

10. Which are my opportunities after
such efforts?
