Gurmeet Kaur is an aspiring candidate for a public-funded engineering college in the suburbs.

She belongs to a nearby village, has minimal technological skills and exposure, has the required cut-off percentage and is looking for a complete or partial scholarship.

Write a paragraph in about 100-120 words, analysing her SWOT notes to support your stand on whether she should join/not join the college.

 

 

 

STRENGTH

  • Strong Curriculum
  • Quality faculty
  • Vibrant Activity Clubs
  • Green location
  • Close proximity to residential areas

WEAKNESS

  • Lack of diversity
  • Students’ behavioural problems
  • No hostel facility
  • Slow repair and maintenance work
  • Underutilization of IT Services
  • Lack of targeted advertisements to out-state students

OPPORTUNITIES

  • Practice based research
  • Partnership with professional organisations
  • Strong alumni
  • Acclaimed Student Exchange Programme with European countries

THREAT

  • Lack of publicity in areas of excellence
  • Public perception towards funded colleges
  • Declining students’ interest towards technical subjects
  • Low employee morale due to budget cuts

 

 

Answer:

FOR THE ARGUMENT

1️⃣ The  information provided indicates the options Gurmeet will consider to make the right decision about enrolling in a publicly funded engineering school. 2️⃣ With access to a strong curriculum, quality teaching staff, and active activity clubs, she is assured of a rich educational journey.There are no hostels available, but she has taken advantage of accommodation in the suburbs or in the village. 3️⃣ You can choose to move daily from practice-oriented studies, partnerships with professional companies, and good opportunities for international student exchange programs improve their professional and interpersonal skills. Hard work, responsible behavior, and careful decision-making can help Gurmeet succeed in college, despite a rigid and conventional culture. Strength and potential speak for Gurmeet. 4️⃣ The university and government should seize this opportunity  to correct misperceptions of public universities and student attitudes towards engineering courses.
