It gives me immense pleasure to speak about my college Vishwakarma Institute of Technology. It was indeed my best decision to join one of the most sought and finest private engineering institutes in the country. VIT provides a perfect balance between academics and extra activities. College life is the best part of VIT. Speaking about my department, Instrumentation and Control is the most active department of the Institute. The teachers have strong academic background and are keen in ensuring that the students get profound knowledge of the subject along with hands on experience. Various activities like Internships in renowned core Industries, Honors Courses, Industrial Visits, Workshops, Open Elective courses, Lectures by experts in Industry help to bridge the gap between Academics and Industry. The labs are fully equipped with Instruments meeting industrial standards which bolster our practical knowledge. The atmosphere in the department is very friendly and the teachers are really supportive. As students, we were given exposure to myriad of fields. The department supports us in various technical, extra-curricular, social, cultural activities. We have a separate ISA VIT-Pune Student chapter, a platform under which various technical activities, scholarship programs, etc are conducted. The department organizes annual project competition where students showcase their technical skills. The department is always brimming with energy and creativity. Summing up, department of Instrumentation and Control is indeed the best as compared to all other institutes offering this course and I am lucky to be a part of it

“Having worked in the corporate sector for more than 35 years, it has given me insight for the need of research and development of various sector. With the fast growth of gadgets and industrial applications, there is really need for engineers to develop their skills in the related field. One such field in which a student can develop themselves is NSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL.

There are many sector in which an Instrumentation engineer is needed. From field like automation, reliability, quality assurance, control system , safety, to project management, process line calibration. Large projects, equipments, Machineries in Oil and Gas Sector, Process Industry Cement, Iron and Steel Industry, artificial intelligence development, Boiler and power plant are the area in which an instrumentation engineer is needed. In all, we can say, an instrumentation engineer is needed in every field of development. And these engineer are highly paid for the contribution in these sectors.

All these qualities needed in an engineer is bought about in the upbringing of a student studying in Vishwakarma Institute of Technology. An Autonomous institute, the Instrumentation and Control course is specially designed to meet the needs on the industry which is done by the Industrial Advisory Board. Highly qualified teachers deliver the courses to the students and enable them to get hands on experience on the equipments. The labs are highly designed to meet industry standards.

We, Mr. and Mrs. Havaldar, are parents of Shubha Havaldar who has been a student of Vishwakarma Institute of Technology (Dept. of Instrumentation and Control). Recently, while we heard Shubha and her friends discuss about the approaching farewell, we had a flashback of the four years she spent in the institute and its contribution in her growth.

We remember the day of admissions when we were all elated to enroll her in a reputed autonomous institute like V.I.T. Ever since, the institute has succeeded in living upto our expectations with all the opportunities that they provide the students for their overall development.

The first year was marked with enthusiasm, anxiety and happiness associated with pursuing technical studies along with various extra-curricular activities. Working with a team in mini-projects, publicity campaigns, sponsorship committee, theatre etc. have helped her transform into an individual with a dynamic personality. The various elective subjects focusing on professional ethics and technical skills including foreign languages have definitely given the students an exposure to the world beyond technical studies.

Moving to the department of Instrumentation and Control in the second year opened new vistas for her. The department faculty has always been supportive in not only academics but also in extra-curricular activities like FirodiyaKarandak. Shubha was fortunate to be an exchange student for one semester during her third year of engineering at the University of Western Ontario, Canada. That was one of the best experiences she had in developing world views. On account of various such opportunities provided by the department, Shubha could be the recipient of the International Society of Automation’s Scholarship for the 2015-16 academic year.Interactions with Industries and organization of various competitions like Mitsubishi Electric Cup hasprovided the much needed exposure and inspiration to the students. The department has been extremely cooperative and supportive in all her endeavors throughout these years.

All in all, as parents, we see that the institute has prepared its students very well to step into the competitive world. The skills and values inculcated in them would definitely make them stand out from the rest while they pursue their choice of career.

Thank you.

Alumni Speak

Slide 1

IT Instrumentation department has played an important part in my life. Being from the 1st Instrumentation batch at VIT meant that we had to overcome a lot of challenges. Whether it was about getting notes from other (experienced) colleges or bunking the classes! It was all done together and as a first time experience. Prof. Gangal was our HOD and he led the way in guiding us through the extreme syllabus of instrumentation. I believe this experience gave us tenacity and confidence to face difficult unknown challenges further in our lives. I worked as a commissioning engineer at Thermax for a couple of years and faced numerous such occasions on customer sites where we did not have a solution but worked towards achieving it in small steps. Further in my work at FedEx USA, as a technical lead, I could see myself being fearless because I was never afraid of hard-work and perseverance. 

Starting my business, VGlobalTech.com, roots from the same ability to face the unknown developed at VIT firsthand. I wish to sincerely thank VIT college leaders, staff members and all students that strive to make citizens of tomorrow with higher life-values, breed courage and positive attitude towards life. These life-lessons is what makes you a true human being that values relationships, fosters courage and well-being and works for the greater good of mankind, everything else does not matter! So never stop learning, ensure you have helped someone other than yourself each and everyday and pass on what you have to the less fortunate. That's what living is about.

The years spent in VIT Instrumentation were one of those years that I will cherish forever. It inculcated in us the spirit of curiosity for Engineering, the desire of get down to the basics and to understand concepts thoroughly. Heads of department and faculty were not just teaching the "syllabus" but were bringing in front of us, as many industry relevant components as possible. The initiative of getting companies to invest in projects and getting these projects executed within the department was of great benefit to the students and faculty. Amazing students around made those years fly and was definitely another huge source of learning and co-creating. Wishing VIT Instrumentation Department the very best !

It gives me great pleasure to reflect back on my experience with VIT - my alma mater. I am truly indebted to VIT for transforming an average engineering student like me into capable professional engineer in the field of Control Engineering. My journey on Engineering course started back in year 2003 with VIT-Instrumentation and Control department. While working through my Engineering degree at VIT, I realized that experienced faculty members who are subject matter experts in various fields layout strong foundation for dynamic academic program at Instrumentation department. Student friendly faculty and supporting staff creates conducive academic eco-system for any student to thrive on it. State of art laboratories for DCS , PLC , Process Instrumentation etc. at Instrumentation department helped me tremendously to see how theories taught in classroom being applied to real world applications. Apart from academics, I was able to enjoy extra-curricular activities through college festivals and competitions which are undoubtedly special college memories to cherish lifelong for any engineer. Training and Placement at VIT sets it apart from masses when it comes to transitioning from academic to professional environment at the end of curriculum. Symbiotic relationship between leading automation companies and VIT helps students to give right head start into their early career. I was able to secure employment with Honeywell Automation India Ltd. via strong platform provided by VIT- Instrumentation and Control department. This early encouragement in my career helped me to further pursue Master of Science degree at USA. On concluding note, I would like to thank everyone at VIT who helped me achieve my academic goals and gave me lifetime experience during my formative years. I wish all the best to all aspiring future Instrumentation and Control engineers in making at VIT
