Message from Leaders

Tarun Bhattacharya

General Secretary, Dr.B.C.Roy Engineering College Durgapur

When meaningful dreams of a few potential entrepreneurs combine with steely determination, great creations take shape for the benefit of humanity.

As an outcome of such a collective dream, Dr. B. C. Roy Engineering College, Durgapur initiated its noble journey in August, 2000, to develop skilled manpower in the form of engineering graduates, to help faster growth of our country. Today, after about 23 years, this institution stands tall in this region as a proud flagship of three more illustrious institutions, all located at Durgapur and vying with each other in healthy competition to overtake one another in attaining supreme academic excellence, the ultimate dream of every worthy institution anywhere in the world.

Much awaited 25 years of glorious existence of BCREC with many a laurel on her head, is just three years away from now. Naturally, the institution today, is just buzzing with a plethora of developmental activities, some of which deserve a mention for the knowledge of our students and guardians.

Just from early 2022, an Innovation and Incubation Hub is being created on a 10,000 sft., Corporate standard accommodation in collaboration with eminent VITTI Research Foundation, New Delhi to create valuable learning opportunities for both students and faculties to promote Invention, Innovation, Research, Project Work and even Start-Ups of different hues to enhance silently, the hidden potential lying within each member of BCREC fraternity.

MOU has already been signed recently in between India famous CMERI, Durgapur and Dr. B. C. Roy Engineering College to promote mutual cooperation mainly in the fields of innovation, research, and training as both the organizations are located pretty close to each other.

A unique MOU with Capgemini, one of our major recruiters of students has recently been signed wherein provisions are there to deliver systematic training from first year of B.Tech itself, to enable them to be absolutely ready for appointment as soon as they get their B.Tech degrees. We will provide them matching computer laboratories for the ease of teaching-learning endeavours.

Apart from MOU that already exists between Cambridge Marketing College, Cambridge, U.K and BCREC, initiatives are in advance stage of implementation to have a tie-up with Anglia Ruskin University, U.K. in 2022 itself, keeping the esteemed British Council, U.K. in the loop. A project on Sustainable Business Opportunities and Growth, endowed by British Council, U.K. is already in final stage of completion with support and mutual cooperation from ARU, U.K.

Awarding of NAAC Accreditation and three numbers of NBA Accreditations in Information Technology, Mechanical Engineering and Electrical Engineering in close succession, is indeed a matter of great pride in addition to NBA Accreditation in Computer Science & Engineering and Electronics & Communication Engineering that we already have. Winning of AICTE-IDEA Lab, as one among only two recipients in entire West Bengal, is a glowing testimony to the ever-growing intrinsic qualities and value additions of this entire group of institutions that reflect in multiple ways including overall enlightenment of students silently as well as matching record breaking placements, as a part of the entire process of advancement.

A warm greeting to all,

Here’s wishing you all the very best and God Bless for a bright and successful future to all students.

I welcome you all to join with me towards the journey of excellence in technical education. Dr.B.C Roy Engineering college is a well known name looked upon by any aspirant in the Engineering and technological Education. The name has been achieved with the consistent hardwork by all and developments taken place at various stages. Institutions are known for its infrastructure and human resources serving them. We have the teaching staff members the backbone of any institute with an excellent expertise and experience in their respective fields. With around 200 faculties and an average experience of about 15 years makes it one of best possible ratio required. What is more significant is almost 30 percent of faculties have achieved their one of the highest degrees Ph.D, which justifies the thrust in continuous learning. The remaining faculties have already started their research activities, some of them on the verge of completion and others in a process of formal registration. This has been supported with an excellent infrastructure in the campus. The on campus provision of the hostel facility and sports activities is the unique combination any Institution can offer for an overall development of the student as a professional.

Our efforts in achieving the best have been recognized by various statutory bodies and organizations. Recently, a NAAC peer review team visited our campus and evaluated our performance. We have been accredited for 5 years with a grade of “ B+”. This is our first step to go through the process of standardizations. The team was generous enough to guide and suggest us for further improvements in the sections which require improvements. Our two departments, Computer Science and Technology and Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering have already been accredited by NBA, and we have already applied for more departments, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, MBA and Information Technology under the umbrella of NBA. This will give us an enormous opportunity to all to explore more in terms of research, consultancy and Industry interactions which will reap benefit for all the students and faculties. We are increasing our collaboration with well known organizations to grow together and serve the society and nation. Recently we have signed MoU with Central Mechanical Engineering Research Institute (CMERI) and premier Research Institute of GoI. This will give us an opportunity to be a part of leading projects and innovations happening in the field and to contribute in it. It will also provide an opportunity to share the experimental resources of an international standard to carry out research activities at the global standard level. A similar arrangement has also been signed with National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) where you can be a part of a group involved in live design and development of infrastructure projects at national level with a hands-on experience with ongoing projects. This is a start of collaborating with the premier Institutes and organizations and we aspire for more with national and international organizations. One of the most promising area coming in future is that of Quantum Computing. We have concrete plan to establish a learning and developmental center under the umbrella of BCREC group. The plan starts with an introduction lecture for creating an interest, a workshop to understand what's going on at international level, and a course to be offered with certificate to get into details and mainstream in Quantum Computing. A couple of discussions and a plan has already been drafted with support from Qantumn AI, an international organization headed by a renowned technocrat. In a couple of months the plan will come up live about the activities in Quantum Computing and Applications is in the pipeline. Our aim is to create interest and also an expert group by training and research activities in the technology which is going to govern the future. Though we have a B.Tech in AI and ML which will look into the design and engineering aspects with the system design and process, we also plan to embed the thoughts of AIML into other core groups of Engineering. This will create an opportunity for the core group to leverage the use of AI and ML to its challenges and solutions. Some of the areas of future development, we have thought of is Drones, Robotics and applications, Technological use in Agriculture, Geographical information systems, Cyber Security, Smart grid etc.

It is important for all of us is to adapt to the change in technology as per the need. That kind of thought, culture and environment will be available in the Institute for future activities. With the knowledge and expertise within students and faculty, we are creating a team to be part of solutions of national interests. A professional training will be given to the team members regarding the technology, process and solutions so that the teams are competing for various hackathons organized by the government agencies and organizations. The trends have changed for the recruitments and this is an opportunity for the students to prove their skills and get dream offers from the reputed companies, where such path was never available before. This also inspires the students and teachers to go beyond the syllabus and learn, expertise and utilize the tech and knowledge well beyond your prescribed syllabus, a fun to be enjoyed. AICTE and University have offered enough opportunities about learning process. So as to have best possible teachers in a particular course, an opportunity has been created to earn extra credits from the MOOC course and get an additional degree and one time opportunity to increase the pace of learning of the interest. The tenure during the 4 years period for any Undergraduate is a very important tenure in life. Only knowledge and education does not help, but you also need to know the universal human values, managerial skills, professional developments etc. We plan to launch various professional and artistic clubs and students' interest groups, where opportunity can be given to prove their caliber in extra curricular activities. Such activities will support to ease the pressure from academic activities and spend some time for self-interest hobbies.

An entrepreneur thought process is an important aspect of any education system today. The seeds of the thoughts are to be sown at the start of the course itself, so that the plan and execution can happen at the later stage of the course and we can surely see some of the launch of the startups. The training methods and plan have already been drawn for such activities. Though physically apart, the world is becoming shorter with support and applications from technology, and all the resources have become within a reach. It has become possible to be an entrepreneur, from whichever place you are and even with the limited availability of the resources, a dream can come true for budding entrepreneurs to govern the world.

A future career and plans are an important part of any graduation programme. We also are in a process to host couple of training and guiding sessions for the various competitive examinations and guide in further prospects at national and international level.

Let's join hands together to work for the goal of excellence for all to serve the society and nation.
