The Higher Education Review

Unleashing potentials of the upcoming engineers through constructivist pedagogy from 2009, Rohini College of Engineering and Technology (RCET) has filtered itself from the count of numerous engineering institutes through its emphasis on transformational learning. Though, it looks like flattering, that is not the case as the college possesses stories in this regard. K. Neela Marthandan, Chairman, RCET proudly claims, "A word of appreciation is always the right reward for the students and RCET has always been the best in doing this. The first and the foremost thing done in this regard is the provision of relevant platforms for the students to work on. TARCET (Technical Association of Rohini College of Engineering and Technology) helps students to attend national and international level seminars, conferences and to conduct various researches under the guidance of renowned companies and Scientists.

The role of the faculties at most places are restricted to only teaching, but in RCET, the role is expanded to carry out research activities in the college and provide an opportunity for the students to involve in such research activities. This research-informed, practice oriented program explores the students to current issues related to curriculum and pedagogy with a special focus on recent

development in educational technologies. Certification program, conducted on the basis of Technological Development in the industry helps students further in taking up topics to work on. "Though the curriculum is coupled with in-depth exposure to specific academic disciplines, the certificate program builds on the strong academic foundation. Students develop advanced skills in qualitative and quantitative reasoning, gain exposure to real-world corporate scenarios, understand the nuances of solving challenging business problems and receive training from some of the world's most highly regarded academics," states Neela Marthandan. Together, this education produces highly skilled graduates who stand out from their peers in the marketplace.

"Conducts Regular Interaction With Companies Like EMCC, EduCadd Learning Solutions, NDT Institute, Blitz Academy, National Institute of Wind Energy, KST Wind Engineering India"

Located at Palkulam, K.K.Dist,Tamil Nadu, RCET invites guest lecturers to make the student study about the industry and help them to create an impression with the guest lecture about an individual's ability. "We arrange guest lectures, workshops, industrial visits for students as a part of their syllabus. We have regular interaction with companies like EMCC, EduCadd Learning Solutions, NDT Institute, Blitz Academy, National Institute of Wind Energy, KST Wind Engineering India. and many more, which help us in enhancing the students and faculty towards the recent trends in order to compete in the competitive

world," says Neela Marthandan. The institute is also very well known for its industry experienced faculty team. "52 in my team do come from the industry and their experience definitely adds on to upgrade the student learning," explains Neela Marthandan.
