ACADEMICS – Vinod Kumar

The students, graduates and the faculty members on the side of academics, must participate to bridge the gaps. They must make industry visits and do interning at regular intervals. Open up your profile and personality to be as much part of the industry, as possible. Develop possibilities that will ensure that you connect intimately with the industry.

Disrupt your stagnations in academics. Do not accuse the environment. Simply managing a hostile environment is not sufficient. Pierce through the rigidity and transform to flexibility. Practicality and functionality in academics can bring it closer to industry.

You have to evolve and mature, to increase your employability quotient. Industry will resist mediocrity. Industry wants quality output from workers. Your prospective employer is looking for innovative propositions. Does your academics have any new things to offer? You must represent your views effectively. Only then you will be allowed deeper reach and influence into the industry.

May be, one more instrument or tool must be added, in between Academics and industry. A bridge. The capacity to compete with circumstances. Achieve a knack and tricks of universal workplace behavior. Develop the mentality of enterprise. Learn to be an associate of the industry, even while studying, in the college. Show resilience when you have to move through failures and losses. Express that this graduate from college has patience. Are you equipped to cater to diverse demands on your intellect, and memory. Maybe the industry need that you cross over to another job description. Then can you show versatility? The industry will probe whether they can trust you with tasks and projects.

You are hired into the industry to solve their problems. The graduate must emit resourcefulness. The industry must know that you pose absolutely no threat, to the speedy  pace and their ambitions.  Technical fitness and soft skill dexterity and domain expertise must become your aspiration.  Determination and the will to connect the academics and the industry is urgent requirement. Stretch to deliver performance, a little more than your duty. Do not limit your productivity to just as much money, that you get as salary. But instead give more intensity, so as to make a pleasant experience to the consumer.

The academics stretched into it’s own stream, then becomes the industry. Brilliance is in establishing methods to integrate the subjects of academics into it’s matureside called industry. The collaboration between academia and the industry will eliminate any gaps. Transact and do the connection.

Have you done the lessons while in school? In your examination was an instruction called “Fill in the blanks”. So any gaps, difference and distance is actually the blanks. You must work to fill in the blanks. The academic students and graduates can take accountability to make themselves known to the people in the industry.
