OUT AND ABOUT

Assalam-a-laykum

Alhumdullillah!!! just completed my graduation (pappa app ka bucha engineer bun gaya), but as they always say in all star wars movies THE SAGA continuous, the same applies to our life's too, now it’s for a job.

People say that if you go to a good university you are bound to get a good job, but that is not exactly true in case of computer science, cause over here in Pk, companies only care that you know how to work on a tool that they use and nothing else, other major’s university students do not be pissed off, am talking only about computer science and related fields.

Companies over here just care about how much profits they make in an annual turnover, not about students, can’t blame them cause they reach there required skilled employees target and the rest to them is just news.

Coming to the institutions, it is said that the students run an institution, in my university case that’s 100% true, cause most of the courses offered in the curriculum are theoretically to the mark covering up the basic, but that’s the point in computer science what’s new today will be obsolete in about 4 years meaning when student’s enter their professional studies, even if they start off with the newest technology and tools, by the time they graduate, they will need to update. Coming to the second point in institutions, since technology's changing, the professors did their masters or whatever a long time ago and since most of them are on a full time basis, they do not get a chance to acquire knowledge about band new tools or industry oriented technology, so most of them just follow the books and pretend to be the baap in what they do, so can’t  blame them either.

Since the day we were born (by we meaning boys)( girls do not  be upset, and pardon me for being sexist cause you easily run away with the ones who make the most $$$) our parents thought of us as the one who will be their "burhapay ka sahara", and from that day we were nourished by them, they helped us, provided us and did all that was necessary to help us become what we are today, so cant and should never blame them for their high expectations forms us.

Student's work there A** out for grades, giving up the fun part but yet when they reach the end they are told "what you know till now is good but you still need to get this and that bla bla " by professionals from companies.

You all must have watched Amir Khans new movie "three idiots", it’s a good movie telling us about the standard and difficulties faced by us, but still it’s not realistic as due to it being an Indian movie , and in every Indian movie the hero gets the girl and he and his friends live happily ever after.

So in the end i ask you who is to be blamed for this situation????  some intellects would say we all have our part to play, which may be true but then again , people who designed the current system are/were considered the intellects of their/ this time .
