    "bole toh bohot.......lekin kaha kitna" !! Read it once again and

    think for two seconds.

    Tick........ Tick. Ok, the supple smile on your face indicates that you

    understood it quite well. These words by Mr. Ashok Vajpayee (Ex.

    Chairman Lalit Kala Academy) have already become a mass

    favourite since they were spoken at JECRC Universitys campus on

    the occasion of launch of CAI. JECRC University strengthened its

    commitment towards a comprehensive development of students by

    launching a unique Centre for Arts and Ideas, i.e., CAI where

    students will have the freedom to cultivate their ideas and to

    explore the artist inside them.

    The launch event was blessed with the presence of all the

    Advisory board members. A few to put in the picture - Ms.

    Prerna Shrimali (renowned Kathak Dancer, representing Jaipur

    Gharana), Mr. Sadanand Menon (Noted teacher of Cultural

    Journalism), Mr. Mukund Lath (Padmashree Awardee and

    Cultural historian), Prof. Nand Kishore Acharya (An Indian

    Playwright, Poet and critic, currently Professor of Eminence at

    IIIT, Hyderabad) and of course Mr. Ashok Vajpayee whose

    jesting comment had a marvellous effect. We hope that CIA will

    provide a much needed platform to the students where art meets

    the ideas.

    Xananoids, the celebrated robotics club of the college, has shown excellent performance in IIT-Gs

    annual techno-management festival Techniche. JECRCians were able to grab positions in top-3 in 3

    events namely Libraria with 2nd position, Pacman and Escalade with 3rd position. The events were

    divided into two phases; the prelims were conducted in 12 cities all over india and were held on 8 th July

    in Jaipur while the main event was conducted on 1st and 2nd September during Techniche 2012.

    The challenge posed to participants in Pacman was of

    making a robot that can traverse through a maze, in

    Escalade it was to make a robot that can climb a staircase of

    variable heights while for Libraria the objective was to help

    the librarian, with a robot, sort out a pile of books and put

    them back at their places.7 students of JECRC, also

    members of Xananoids, selected for main event were

    Dheeraj Singhal, Saurabh Soni, Dharmendra Sharma,

    Dharmesh Agrawal from 5th semester and Rahul Kumar,

    Akash Garg and Aditya Vijay from 3rd semester.

    The accomplishments of Xananoids make us all feel proud, it as well regenerates active interest for

    robotics in first year students many of whom now can be easily seen after college hours learning about

    different kinds of sensors and motors used in making robots by the classes by Edubotix, a notedcompany in Indian Robotics.

    When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the

    wind, not with it. And have you ever thought what enables an airplane to do so? Well, aerodynamics

    is the answer. Just a term may seem to be a laymans response, then why dont you get deep into it and

    explore. ZENITH is a group for those students who are interested particularly in aerodynamics.

    Students here are given knowledge about how to design planes and to make miniatures. ZENITH

    doesnt restrict to learning but believes in performing too.

    They bagged 1st prize in IIT Rajasthan in an event named "Taksh" which was held from 16th to 19th

    Feb. 1st and 2nd prize in BITs Pilanis event "Apogee" held from 16th to 20th March. 2nd prize in

    M.R.I.U Faridabad event held from 7th to 8th April. Not to forget, they won the 3rd and 4th prize in

    IIT Guwahatis event named "Technofizi held from 30th to 2nd Sept. Total 11 students went for the

    competition, from which 1 was from JECRC and the other 10 were of UDML. The group is led by Mr.

    Utpal Chakravarty (Faculty Advisor), Mr. Rajat Vijay (Club President) and Mr. Akshat Aatrey (Vice

    President). We anticipate and wish that they continue their success journey and make us feel inspired

    and proud.

    Heres something for all the MOONRIDERS fans.

    Their eminence explains why we dont have to make

    any Introductions !

    MOONRIDERS, the vivacious motor designing club of

    JECRC recently participated in VIRTUAL BAJA, an

    intercollegiate engineering design competition

    conducted by SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers),India. For the contest, the team prepared a prototype

    made of iron rods in scale of 1:4. Every inch of the

    ATV (All Terrain Vehicle) was designed in AUTO-

    CAD. In order to boost the vehicles capacity to

    respond to the major challenges, the team carried

    studies concerning the mechanisms of all the parts to

    MOONRIDERS ride it virtually at VIRTUAL BAJA

    be fitted in the vehicle.

    The main event was conducted at Bangalore Institute of

    Technology on August 25, 2012. Teams from some of the

    esteemed institutes of India presented their designs.Following the presentation was a 15 minute questioning

    session by the judges; brightest minds from within the top

    Auto-market dwellers like TATA motors, NATRAX

    comprised these. If qualified for the BAJA main event

    scheduled in February 2013, the team gets to manufacture

    their own car. The event is planned to take place in

    Pithampur, Indore. So, in few days, if you witness a

    trendy and speedy vehicle burning rubber in the college

    campus, get to know , its a MOONRIDERS venture !

    GreatAmbassadors at work

    Its not just technical field where JECRCians have

    proved their mettle but have now excelled the art of

    juggling technical and non-technical events with

    equal ease and have outshone themselves and this

    August witnessed another such example!!

    On 18th and 19th August 2012, four students of

    JECRC participated in LCDMUN held at Law

    College Dehradun, Dehradun. After attending 2MUNs, one at JECRC campus itself and the other at

    JNU Jaipur, our proficient MUNers could not help

    but savor the temptation of taking it outside Jaipur.

    Three of these students, Rajat Mathur, Mayank Parnami and Sagar Tiwari were a part of ECOSOC

    committee while Radhika Gupta participated in UNGA. Amidst over 100 delegates from all over the

    country, mostly from non-technical academic background, our four budding engineers left an

    impressionable mark and were hugely appreciated. Rajat Mathur also bagged Special Mention Award

    for the third time in a row. So it will not be wrong to say that JECRC is surely a fast emerging hub for

    MUNers.

    become a new hub.

    And how many of us

    dare to say that Yes

    man, I am gonna be

    the next Mark

    Zuckerberg? A few

    confident faces were

    second year students.

    The first round of the

    challenge was held from

    which a few students

    were shortlisted for the

    next round on the

    parameter of 60%

    attainment of marks.

    The next round was held

    on October 7 which was

    to crack a quiz on

    technical knowledge.

    The scorer with the most

    number of accurate

    responses was awarded

    an ipad. This quiz, of

    course, escalated a wave

    of confidence among the

    participants. Such

    quizzes are indeed a

    hallmark of a sound

    education system.

    seen at the four day

    workshop on Web

    Express by Eduwire.

    It was conducted to

    guide students and to

    make them

    competent in

    designing very high

    level web pages.

    Main emphasis waslaid on wordpress

    along with basic knowledge of HTML and CSS. It was held in the JECRC campus and was

    coordinated by the students of different branches. It had a fee of just Rs 1000 which was absolutely

    worthwhile as at the end, the students were awarded with a certificate and a toolkit. Moreover, if a

    student wanted to have his/her own domain than an extra amount of Rs 1000 was charged. The

    students seemed to be really keyed up and exultant throughout this wonderful time. So as to speak out

    loud, Gearup Mr. Zuckerberg, JECRCians are coming!

    of emotions.

    SIGNATURE CARDS, an upcoming

    venture started in JANUARY 2012,

    whose main motivation is to craft that

    "special" feeling with tender hands and

    express those innermost thoughts, and

    communicate with those special ones

    you cherish SIGNATURE CARDS

    hard work and this success has brought a new surge of zeal and energy among the members who have

    vowed to take it to new heights and make excellence a habit!!

    Kindly tell us something more about

    yourself.

    Sir, I feel quite delighted to know about your

    stories of college time and also post to yourcollege time from Arpit Sir and our faculty

    members. You were quite active during your

    college days. Do you miss those moments which

    you relished?

    I hope that the word heard is a good one :), but yes,

    college life, as for everyone, proved to be a

    wonderful journey for me too. The open culture

    there encouraged to take a lot of initiatives,

    implementing them, committing mistakes and

    adding to self. Those moments, the environment &aura are surely missed.

    Companies these days recruit students from all the

    branches, like IT companies taking up people from

    Mechanical. Are there any challenges which students of

    other branches face while working in such a company?

    When Crompton Greaves recruited me for Marketing, I

    asked the very same question there, that I am not an MBA

    then why are you taking me for Marketing? The answer I

    received from our SBU head was "Engineers are like

    potatoes which can mix up with any vegetable to add

    value". Well the point he was trying to make was that a

    person has two prime facets - Knowledge and Aptitude.

    During engineering, you not only gain knowledge but also

    develop the aptitude. Having said this, knowledge counts a

    lot too, thus what I personally feel is that it is more about

    the interest a person has. If you are appearing for an ITcompany and a computer is not a very good friend of yours

    then you may not find working there easy. I chose electrical

    as its curriculum was very rich in our times, having a good

    combination of electronics as well as computer subjects

    and I had an inclination towards them. Thus, I shall say that

    if one enjoys what he does then nothing would seem like a

    challenge.

    What message would you like to convey to your

    juniors? Also give your suggestions for enhancing

    their overall development.

    Have fun, but also make sure that you are adding

    value to yourself and becoming a more capable

    being. I shall surely recommend all to read a lot,

    especially biographies and autobiographies. Through

    this, you would get to know that there have been

    bigger fools than you out there, who have

    accomplished a lot in life, so if they can - then you

    can too. Also, when in doubtask!

    Is there anything else that you would like to

    talk about or share with us?

    Recently I got to meet a delegation from JECRC

    to Hyderabad, and when people speak you can

    make out what things they believe in, and it was

    great to find that strong values seem to be getting

    better in the Foundation, and as always, getting

    inculcated in everyone associated with it. I wish

    every member of this family a lot of success and I

    would be very happy if I can help anyone from

    this family if possible, in any way.

    God Bless All!

    I graduated from JECRC in 2005 in Electrical

    Engineering.

    I was placed from the college in Crompton

    Greaves Limited as a Marketing Personnel and

    currently I am working with CMC Limited,leading a team there for User Interface &

    Experience in Product Designing.

    Sir, you have been a part of Symantec , Mindstix

    Labs , Amazon.com and currently you are

    working as Senior Software Engineer with Geo

    Technologies at Yahoo!.How do you evaluate the

    growth in the Corporate World and its imprints

    over the globe?

    It has been a journey full of diverse experiences in

    varied technologie and platforms. At all the places, Igot to work with great minds and got

    to be a part of some of the most exciting products

    which these companies had to offer. These include

    the data center automation products at Symantec

    to the famous book reader 'kindle' at Amazon &

    from focused design driven web development to a

    much much larger user centric maps and business

    listings offering at Yahoo!

    What suggestions would you like to give to your

    juniors regarding internships?

    What would you like to convey them in order to

    enhance their overall development?

    Internships are an important step towards your goals

    and should not be done just for the heck of doing it.

    We should definitely take the time to try out our

    interest areas so that we make the correct choices.

    Life is not just about earning money but more

    about being happy so making the right choices is

    very important.

    How was your life at JECRC? Which faculty

    members do you still recollect? Any memorable

    moment at JECRC which you would like to share

    with us?

    The life at college was always full of fun and

    enthusiasm. I will always cherish and miss the time

    spent with the teachers and my friends at JECRC.

    All the teachers contributed to my overalldevelopment in some way or the other. I can never

    forget how Mukesh Agarwal Sir made data structures

    and algorithms so interesting for us by his interactive

    teaching methodology. He always allowed me to

    think out of the box and let me experiment with the

    projects and assignments.

    Who is your role model? What is your Success

    Mantra and to whom do you want to give the

    credit for your Success?

    My role model is my Dad, whom I always look upto

    in case of any doubt I have in life. He has always

    been there to support me in making all the right

    choices in life. The very simple mantra of my life is

    Take risks and follow your dream. I would like to

    give the credit for my success to my wife(also a

    JECRCian) as she has always been on my side and

    has helped me in my endeavors which has made me

    what I am today.

    How being a JECRCian helped you

    chase your dreams and achieve

    them?

    JECRC laid the foundation for me, the

    faculty added a lot of value to my

    knowledge base

    and my friends at JECRC led to my

    social & emotional development.

    GRE is a standardised test measures verbal reasoning quantitative reasoning, critical thinking,

    and analytical writing skills that are acquired over a long period of time and are not related to

    any specific field of study. GRE is an admission requirement for many graduate schools in the

    United States ,in the other English speaking countries and for English taught and business

    programs world wide.

    The GRE scores are technically valid for five years .However, most of the top universities do not

    consider scores more than two years old . GRE tests you in the following sections :

    Verbal section

    Quantitative Section

    Analytical Writing Assessment (AWA)

    GRE 2012 Exam - Tips & Strategies for improved GRE Score

    Attempt as many GRE practice tests and GRE sample tests as possible, as they will familiarize with

    the general level of the questions that are asked in GRE exam and the directions for questions.

    Optimizing time is very important in GRE. You should be aware how much time you can devote on

    one question. You need to set your pace right. Rushing or sticking to a question for too long will cost

    you valuable scores.

    The similar appearing questions have substantial or subtle modifications and require different answer.So, pay close attention to the wording of each question before you decide on an answer.

    You are penalized for not completing the test. Hence, your score depends on your accuracy, the

    difficulty level of the questions and the number of questions you attempted.

    Lastly, you may consider cancelling the test scores immediately after taking the GRE exam or quit the

    exam, so that the scores do not get noted in your permanent record. Unfortunately, you have to do it

    before you can see the test scores and the fees of the exam will not be refunded.

    If you do cancel your GRE scores, this will be noted in your official GRE score report.It is not allowed to cancel the scores of only one section of the test.

    So ,If you are pretty interested, take it up a notch to set records in your GRE scores!

    Listening to the gasping haste of the soil as I watered a plant that

    stands in a solitary earthen pot, I felt as if I fused life into stillness.

    The smell of the moist soil damped with the freshness of a new life,

    triggered an invigoratingly new thought!!!

    While for all these days, I used to wonder how deeper the water

    would have percolated down... its then, that I envisioned the

    poured energy climbing up , instead ! Water, travelling upwards,

    against all efforts by gravity, ...and delivering freshness and

    liveliness to various partsas they are encountered one by one

    the scattered roots sucking it till their limits, then the stem, the

    twigs, distributing like tributaries from the ocean and flowing like

    little brooks, digressing and dividing all to reach out to the green

    and colorful ends leaves and fruits and flowers!! It is through

    these tips that the intangible and unseen can be actually seen the

    greener the livelier, the more colorful the more vibrant!

    And as I watered more, I sensed an unexpected joy bouncing in my

    heart and again I could see the life breathing and miraculously

    smiling at me !
