• TRANSFORMATION: 2012 to 2020• ANALYSIS of DEMAND-SUPPLY of Engineers• COMPETENCY- Challenge or an Opportunity• REMEDY• NEED OF THE HOUR

SUMMARY

INDIA’s POPULATION • 1.22 Billion• Growth rate: 1.58%• Set to take Numero-Uno position by 2030• Rural Population: 72.2% • Urban Population: 27.8%• Projected Urban Population by 2020: 40%

INDIA’s ECONOMY• Growth Rate: 8.2% of GDP (2011-2012) • 9% projected by 2020

Two-Third of incremental

Growth is spent in development of

DemandSupply

Annual Average Demand- Supply of Core Professionals in Built Environment during 2010-2020

Analysis for FY 2011:

• INDIA’s GDP= 1700 Billion USD• Investment in Infrastructure (as 5% of GDP)= 85 Billion USD=

Rupees 4,25,000 Crore

By CPWD Yardsticks:

9 Engineering Graduates to handle Rs. 10 Crore worth of construction work in case the project is handled by Govt. body

Required number of engineers: 3,82,500 per annum

BUT- Taking in account PPP ( Public Private Participation)Only 33% of the manpower required

GUESS ESTIMATE= 1,27,500 per annum

Supply Side Positions:

Students Graduating as Engineers ( as of 2011) = 6,00,000

Strength of Civil Engg. Graduates= Roughly One-Tenth of Total Engg. Graduates= 60,000

10% of cream Civil Engineering Students from different colleges will join LUCRATIVE IT JOBS

54,000About 2 % will join Management jobs, or aspire for Civil Services:

53,000Available for deployment for organizing Construction and Maintenance Works

~50 % SUBSTANDARD, UNFIT FOR EMPLOYMENT

( 26,500 Competent Professionals)

DEMAND 127500

SUPPLY 26500

ISSUES:

• Skill gaps in Domestic Manpower• Recruitment difficulties• Sub-standard construction• Task completion within Deadlines

INABILITY TO COPE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF IMMEDIATE AND NECESSARY FACILITIES

WHY THIS GAP?

FOR GRADUATING ENGINEERS:NO IMMEDIATE INCENTIVES

FOR INDUSTRY:NO COMPETENCY

INDUSTRY – ACADEMIA COLLABORATION TO MEET COMPTENCY

OPPORTUNITY !!!

Creation a sufficient critical mass of educators and practicing engineers who understand the complex systems nature of the problems we face as a society, who share the same vision and have sufficient experience to define the “new fundamentals” for educating the future civil engineers.

By encouraging these renaissance engineers to come together and to construct model curricula, with a sufficient level of specificity and clear standards of depth, rigor and quality of delivery, it can be ensured to demonstrate how the future civil engineering students may be guided through a properly balanced applied science, systems engineering and, civil engineering arts and crafts education.

NEED OF THE HOUR
