Best Colleges for Vocational Courses in India
Mother tongue advantage
There is good news for students who want to read engineering courses in their mother tongue. Some colleges in the prestigious Anna University, Tamil Nadu, are offering Bachelor of Engineering Degree courses (Mechanical and Civil engineering) in Tamil language.
The courses have been a huge hit as some 99 students have chosen BE in Tamil. Mannar Jawahar, vice-chancellor of Anna university, told TSI: 'Civil engineering can be studied in Tamil in 11 colleges of Anna University and mechanical engineering in 12 colleges. In the next year we will expand this to other disciplines also.''
Mohanraj of Kavundanur in Namakkal district is the first student to take admission is such a course. 'I have no hesitation in studying engineering in Tamil. I may need to know English while seeking job. I can hone my language skills later on,'' he told TSI. Despite high score, Mohanraj opted for the course in Tamil because of his love for the language. Besides, he feels that it will be easy for him to master the subject.
But there are many who are not impressed. Dr. Kalanidhi, former vice-chancellor of Anna University, said: 'When a student studies technical courses in Tamil, he can understand the subject easily, but he cannot get jobs outside the state, not even in Bangalore. In some way he is handicapped. In Japan those who studied in Japanese are struggling. Are private companies in Tamil Nadu ready to give jobs to students who take Tamil as a language to study B.E?''
P.R.Subramaniam, a lexicographer from Mozhi trust, said: 'Imparting education in the mother tongue is good. But before that there are certain steps that each university should take. They should rope in subject experts who could easily translate books into Tamil. Besides, from time to time it should also be upgraded so that new changes are incorporated in the books.'' Also, he suggests students studying in Tamil to improve their knowledge of English so that it could help them get a job.
But Mannar is not worried. He said: 'Nothing to worry about. There are many job opportunities in civil and mechanical fields in the state. That is why we started teaching these courses in Tamil. We will make sure that books are updated every four years. Students who are taking the course in Tamil will also be guided in English language skills.''
