“Develop a passion for learning and you will not cease to grow”,
these words quoted by Anthony J D’Angelo, a revolutionary in higher
education, have great significance even now. When teaching and learning
meet passion, it is where the magic of education happens. Resources and
accessibility are a click away for this generation but passion is what
they lack. This is where Rohini College has a pivotal role to play, says
Ayusha, a Rohini alumnus. Anyone can disseminate education, or provide
textbook teaching, but the right way of facilitation is rare. At Rohini,
They do not just teach the students but facilitate them to develop a
passion for learning. The facilitators believe in mending the
environment like it isn’t the flower that needs grooming but the soil in
which it grows adds Ayusha. Speaking about Rohini College of
Engineering and Technology, from where she made herself a confident
professional and a computer science engineering graduate, Ayusha just
falls out of words.

How is learning at Rohini different according to you?
The institute had told us at the time of admission, that they foresee
the future of the students along with the world they would build easing
the generations to come. They kept their promise that is which you are
seeing in front of you now. I am a successful engineer and also my
start-up dreams are already budding.
Learning comes from textbooks, but do the textbooks really feed your thoughts? Practical and hands-on learning is a tool
Rohini College of Engineering and Technology has
used for the students thereby allowing them to take the sides of a
learner, researcher and teacher. This makes them inquisitive over their
subjects, letting them dig deeper into the whats and hows of it and be
the masters. Rohini group shares strong and healthy ties with major
industries. This helped us to make big leaps as professionals.
Interactions with major industry experts enriched us to architect our
careers. Many a time this is too rare at many institutions.
How did they help handle the heavy syllabus?
A proper mentoring system is important for any educational setup. We
were given the best tutors for guidance. Most of them are highly
qualified so we are proud to have been groomed by experienced hands.
They care to give us individual attention catering to everyone’s needs.
That is important as not everyone share similar learning attitude and
interests. Engineering was never easy and it never will be. Schools
won’t tell you that and no known textbooks too, but the right kind of
tools can help you to tackle it. Apart from focusing on our technical
education, the institute has also cared for our psychological
well-being. I should definitely say this because I really feel that
every college have to give focus on this too. Many won’t say it but most
of them are in need of a little help on that side.
You already said about Industry learning, what else were you exposed to during the course?
We conducted Tech Fests, Expos, and industry related exhibitions and
presentation works as part of the course. It involved putting more of
our thought process to work technically and also at the organizational
level. Our works were reviewed by industry experts and scholars. This
actually gave us a platform to showcase our technical skills and also
develop them to meet the industry standards. So by involving us in such
R&D works, we were put into the pressure of being in a workspace
model environment thus making us field ready. At the end of the course,
we were given the best placement opportunities in our respective fields.
I’m really overwhelmed to share that most of my friends are part of
major projects in their respective specializations. That is most of a
college can provide.
Apart from academic excellence, what draws students like you to Rohini institute?
Rohini College of Engineering and Technology is
a learning space, they also run a trust. Rohini trust manages the
charity based activities. While many colleges take in heavy fees from
students, Rohini makes students pay what is necessary but also keep
aside some amount for educating poor students. When many drop-out of
colleges due to poor financial backgrounds, trusts like Rohini are a
blessing which encourage them to continue their studies. So as a
socially responsible individual I can say that by paying for my own
education I’m also contributing some for such welfare activities.

From other colleges in Kanyakumari, How is Rohini college different?
Compared to most other colleges there,
Rohini’s placement record is
487 which is still a far cry for others. This is a fruit of a
persistent hard work of many behind it. Rohini’s placement cell share
good industry relations with 100+ companies, as I have already said.
Another notable thing about the institute is it lies close Kerala
border. So more students from the state also come in to seek education
here. By sharing space with students from different places, we are
exposed to diverse cultures. This way we also learn to respect them. I
would be more than happy to advise anyone to choose Rohini for their
studies, because afterall it is not just technical learning you need at
the end of the day, it is beyond any certificates.
