Insights into the transformation happening in the realm of higher education and opportunities in store were provided in substantial measures to students by experts during The Hindu Education Plus Career Counselling Fair 2024 in Coimbatore on Friday.
The first of the two-day event titled ‘Chart your path to success’ encompassed four sessions on subjects ranging from the enlarged ambit of aeronautical engineering and the dynamics of Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions to the pathway to Indian Institutes of Technology and National Institutes of Technology.
The sessions were handled by Anusha Ravi, Chief Executive Officer, Park Institutions; T. Purushothaman, Secretary, Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions, 2024; Raja Atmamayan, Chief Transformation Enabler, Ascent Transformation Ventures; and S.T. Ramesh, Dean (Academic) and Chairman, Centralised Admission Committee, National Institute of Technology - Tiruchi.
Space tourism, launch of numerous satellites for multifarious applications, increase in number of airports, and presence of multinational companies in aeronautical domain have enlarged career opportunities for students interested in this field, Dr. Anusha Ravi said, in her presentation on ‘Careers in Aerospace and Trending Engineering Courses’. Aeronautical applications were also well suited for wind energy and drone technologies, she said.
Speaking on TNEA 2024 Online Counselling Guidelines, T. Purushothaman, explained how seat matrix was arrived at based on ranking, factoring in reservation.
Prof. Ramesh dwelt on preparation for Joint Entrance Examination and admission to IITs, NITs, and Indian Institutes of Information Technology. Students could straddle preparation for both Plus Two and Joint Entrance Examination through adopting strategic study methods, prioritising tasks, and time management techniques with a sense of self-discipline.
Emphasising on conceptual learning, Prof. Ramesh said periodic revision and mock tests will place the students in a strong position to crack the JEE.

“Writing, in general, is a very solitary process,” says Yauvanika Chopra, Associate Director at The New India Foundation (NIF), which, earlier this year, announced the 12th edition of its NIF Book Fellowships for research and scholarship about Indian history after Independence. While authors, in general, are built for it, it can still get very lonely, says Chopra, pointing out that the fellowship’s community support is as valuable as the monetary benefits it offers. “There is a solid community of NIF fellows, trustees, language experts, jury members, all of whom are incredibly competent,” she says. “They really help make authors feel supported from manuscript to publication, so you never feel like you’re struggling through isolation.”

Supreme Court ruling on socialism, secularism
Several principals of government and private schools in Delhi on Tuesday said the Directorate of Education (DoE) circular from a day earlier, directing schools to conduct classes in ‘hybrid’ mode, had caused confusion regarding day-to-day operations as they did not know how many students would return to school from Wednesday and how would teachers instruct in two modes — online and in person — at once. The DoE circular on Monday had also stated that the option to “exercise online mode of education, wherever available, shall vest with the students and their guardians”. Several schoolteachers also expressed confusion regarding the DoE order. A government schoolteacher said he was unsure of how to cope with the resumption of physical classes, given that the order directing government offices to ensure that 50% of the employees work from home is still in place. On Monday, the Commission for Air Quality Management in the National Capital Region and Adjoining Areas (CAQM) had, on the orders of the Supreme Court, directed schools in Delhi-NCR to shift classes to the hybrid mode, following which the DoE had issued the circular. The court had urged the Centre’s pollution watchdog to consider restarting physical classes due to many students missing out on the mid-day meals and lacking the necessary means to attend classes online. The CAQM had, on November 20, asked schools in Delhi-NCR to shift to the online mode of teaching.
