thing is that NUST focuses on classroom engineering. Yes theoretical knowledge is extremely important. but if theory is all that is taught and that too by crappy teachers one cant really become a good engineer. You see majority of our students focus on scoring gpa because of the classroom engineering approach, if that is your motivation, then learning is limited and scoring grades whatsoever be the method becomes the goal. that bogs your mind down. I have been on both extremes, studying for grades and striving to become a good engineer; that can only happen by practical implementation of theoretical knowledge, however, with no or little percentage of practical projects in overall grading policy hurts me and my gpa.
P.S. we dont have a lot of good teachers left in mechanical department, focus is slowly shifting towards mechatronix which leaves us only dreaming for excellent teachers
btw these robots arent designed or fabricated in house. They are only programmed. that is another reason why i think education policy of NUST is seriously flawed
My point is that if you don't like what you see, change it.
You seem smart enough so use your God given Talent and bring about the change.
Theoretical Foundation is important so pay attention to your class work and supplement it with your practical knowledge. Get you mates together who think like you and make it happen.
If you need any help, let me know. Maybe we can get together at C1 or C2 and chat sometimes.
Your Principal is a good man and I am sure if you have some good ideas, he would be willing to listen.
