College of Management & Technology (PCMT)
Seldom, if ever, has
the not-too-distant future and its larger opportunity ramifications
emerged so lucidly before free India.
Riveted on five trust areas, Agriculture and Food Processing,
Power, Education & Healthcare, IT and the Strategic Sector,
the Vision of President A.P. Abdul Kalam seeks to place our country
prime on the global map by the year 2020. The course is charted
and the count down has begun.
Notwithstanding the
material resources that Vision 2020 would necessarily leverage,
the hands-on implementation of this bold initiative shall, compulsively,
have young India on the call of duty.
Vast avenues and immense opportunities lie beyond the floodgates
that A.P.J. Abdul Kalam has unlocked. It is, but surely, from
a staggering 54 % of the country's population-comprising youth
below age 25-that vision 2020 draws immeasurable strength. The
need for empowered, trained, fine-tuned and tempered human resource
is now more tangible and burning than ever before.
Given the majorly enthused
and charged environment, it is-doubly, this time round-a privilege
for me to welcome the new batch of Undergraduate as well as Postgraduate
students at the Pailan College of Management & Technology.
I hope that the pages
here-beyond will serve well in their task of explaining how Pailan
College of Management & Technology is geared to prepare you
for the wealth of opportunities that Vision 2020 has thrown up.
Here's wishing you
not merely an exciting, stint at Pailan College of Management
& Technology, but also worthy career rewards for your education
in a premier management college.
