IN-HOUSE BI-MONTHLY NEWS LETTER OF

ELECTRONICS & COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT

Issue No. 2017/ODD/01-02 EDITORIAL TEAM : CREATIVE CLUB members

PRINCIPAL

SPEAKS………

Dear Engineers,

People who are learning and practicing engineering

have to read story books or hear music or draw arts

regularly to have balanced mind and to avoid getting

bored.

Giving imagination to projects for making them

beautiful is a balanced activity that makes both the

right and left brains to work together. This will give

fulfillment for the project engineer.

Those who are doing research should have custom

of imagination about the research. Without

imagination people will often get bored while doing

research activities. But doing research with

imagination, things will go hand in hand and people

will not get bored but be enthusiastic.

Bending the sky as bow and twisting sand as rope

are illogical imaginations came true. Scientist Albert

Einstein discovered that space around large planets

are bend (sky is like bow). Fiber optic cable is made

of silicon dioxide (sand).

The True Sign of Intelligence is not Knowledge but

Imagination - Albert Einstein

With Warm Regards,

(Dr. J. William)
