This is the open letter of Mr.. Bishnujee singh to Dr. K Ponmudy, Minister for Higher Education Govt of Tamil Nadu regarding changes in admission of Aeronautical Society of india's addmission for ME program at Anna university.Sub# Request for changes in Admission for Aeronautical Society of India 's Engineering Graduates for ME program at Anna University.
Honorable Dr.K Ponmudy,Sincere compliments of the day.I had earlier conveyed my displeasure to Dean and VC of Anna University regarding there frequent changes to admission policy of Anna University towards Professional Engineering Graduates from Aeronautical Society of India
The changes in admission policy has been done when currently Fresh pass out AeSI Graduate Engineer is topping the ME programme in Aeronautical(Avionics) Engineering at MIT ,Chennai currently.It has been astonishing to note that when we are heading forward in 21st century,Anna University has been heading in reverse direction in 20th Century.It has been brought to my notice that the concerned reputed Anna University has made changes to admission policy after its 11th Council meetingto Professional Aeronautical Engineering Graduates from Aeronautical Society of India for ME Aeronautical Engineering program,should be possessing 2 years Post Qualification experience in order to secure admission in your reputed University programme. It has been surprising to note that Aeronautical Society of India's Engineering Graduates have been admitted in Sheffield hallam University England for there MSc in Engineering Program,Prestigious Penn State University,USA has admitted current fresh pass out Graduates from AeSIin there MS programme in AerospaceEngineering,University of Southern California has already MS Degree holders with AeSI as first qualification, University of Missouri,USA has also offeredplace in there MS program for current pass out AeSI Graduates, Salford University MS in Aerospace Engineering program in England and AeSI has been listed as Approved University list from India on University of Miami,Florida,USA,Arizona State Universityfor MS in Aerospace Engineering program and all major Credential Evaluation bodies has given AeSI same status like any other Indian University in India.Boeing Company,USA accords AeSI Graduates as same status as ABET Accrediated BSc in Aeronautical Engineering from USA University. AeSI Graduates in past have numerous laurels at IIT Chennai last year Techfest 2006 and also recipient of First Ever Cayley Award 2003 in England by Royal Aeronautical Society,London. http://www.csirwebistad.org/aesi/pages/cayleyaward03.htm
Everything proves that AeSI Engineers have proved to be more successful in there career as Aerospace Engineer than Graduates from Other Universities like IITs ,MITs,IISc and already Boeing,NASA and Airbus where AeSI Engineers have executed successfully in many reputed Boeing 787 Programmes in USA,Airbus A380 programmes in UK and also in NASA's programmes.
I am aware that numerous staffs of Anna University are on Academic and governing council of AeSI,India and this incidents and discriminatory against Professional Engineering Graduates of AeSI is ridiculous.More over you people must already be aware that almost 98% of AeSI Graduates are full time students and it has been mentioned even in AeSI Registration form regarding that.I think they should quit AeSI Governing council before taking such ridiculous decisions.
I would be glad if you could take necessary measures to correct the process of admission for Professional Graduates in Master's program and remove the 2 years criteria for Aeronautical Society of India AeSI Engineers.
Kind regards
Bishnujee Singh
