He advised the young entrants to engineering courses to go after three things which he called the 3Cs, which are core competencies; strong academic fundamentals of engineering; read voraciously for information, study for understanding, apply these fundamentals in various projects and keep practicing to get better competencies, secondly, he said what engineering students have to imbibe in their four years of study are communication skills and articulation capabilities and thirdly a culture of respect, and a culture of team work; setting targets and going after it. He also stressed that technology should be used along with innovation. Mr. Chakravarthy further requested the students to take their final year projects seriously to gain a competitive edge and to always keep abreast of what is happening in the domain that one has opted for. He cautioned the students to never lose character and the value systems and to enjoy every second of engineering education and to never lose purpose.
Thanking the institution for giving him this wonderful opportunity, Mr. Chakravarthy said that it was always a pleasure to share his views with engineering institutions and that he and his team would do everything possible for the overall growth of Sahyadri.
