As this article progresses, let’s discuss some crucial aspects to be considered before undertaking Cloud Computing and also about how the CSE Cloud Computing programme at Chandigarh University amplifies a student’s potential for the demanding profession.

1. IT Budget:

The Information Technology sector offers promising careers to students. The vast and diverse field of Information Technology inculcates almost every task, from high-risk security tasks to even making attendance at an office. In India, the industry is projected to grow US$ 350 billion by 2025. The fast-tracked pace of the industry, however, is always in the need of qualified professionals with the knowledge of the industry. This further shifts the responsibility towards the higher academic institutions.
At this front, Chandigarh University has been investing positively in Information Technology with an annual IT budget of Rupees 11 Crore. The university has leveraged the emerging technologies and has industrial centers, software labs on campus in collaborations with companies such as IBM, Amazon, etc. The monetary emphasis on IT courses amplifies student exposure in this demanding field.

2. Technology enabled education ecosystem:

Exposure to technology is imperative, howbeit, it demands to be magnified for catching up with the expectations and requirements of the industry. With technology incorporated into the smallest of objects, the students need to sync with the technology and the responsibility of ensuring the sync relies on the institution. Since the outbreak of Covid-19, educational institutions have been preferring the online mode of education.

3. Placement Cell:

An Educational Institution’s placement cell undertakes a vital role in locating job opportunities for Graduates by ensuring contact with industrial establishments and reputed firms. A Placement Cell on an institute operates around the calendar in assisting the graduates to connect with companies. Along with the factors mentioned above, a placement cell is also crucial for strengthening and promoting industrial relations by analysing the demands and fulfilling them with viable outputs. As a result, not only does the number of placements increase but it also invites larger organisations for recruitments.
Chandigarh University’s Placement Cell, in this regard, has been doing fairly well and has earned the accolade of ‘University with Best Placements’ bestowed upon by WCRC Leaders in 2016. Furthermore, other major international organisations such as Walt Disney, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, JW Marriott, Jet Airlines, etc. have been regular recruiters at Chandigarh University which further boosts the placement cell’s reputation and contacts with the employers. The recent placement drive for the session 2019-21 witnessed over 350 companies hiring 3750 Engineers from Chandigarh University with the highest package offered at Rs 35 LPA.
4. Industry-aligned curriculum:

The modern-age industry is persistently evolving and is always on the lookout for recruiting raw and upcoming talent. Howsoever, there is an old beginner’s joke about the professional field where a fresher claims how an employer or company demands for a freshie to have years of experience before joining their first job. One of the main reasons behind such a demand by the employers is to keep up their momentum and boost their progress, which might have some minor but significant effect with the joining of freshmen.
Therefore, the responsibility of assisting both the students and the employers in overcoming this bridge shifts towards the educational institutions, their curricula and on-campus activities. ME CSE in Cloud Computing at Chandigarh University incorporates industry patronage and training on many accounts with industry-sponsored labs on campus such as Microsoft Innovation Center, IBM Software Lab For Emerging Technologies, EMC² Academic Alliance, Oracle Academy Lab, Microsoft - Global Technical Support Center (GTSC), Unisys Innovation Labs, etc. Secondly, the university also stays at the forefront when it comes to organising or participating in events, competitions, and much more.

5. International tie-ups:

One of the world’s best technology companies, Virtusa has collaborated with Chandigarh University for the Masters in Engineering Programme for Computer Science Engineering in Cloud Computing. An international educational partnership, the collaboration would help boost careers and help students become job-ready and to take on leadership roles.
