CAR DESIGNING EDUCATION-
TO MOVE ON IN LIFE
Car
designing is an inseparable part of the automobile industry. But it is a dream
vocation for many, because in order to persue career in this field one has to
spend money in lakhs and stay abroad for learning. Now India has made remarkable
progress in this field and India has left foot prints in the world of
automobiles.
India has
also got some car designing schools. Some of the best schools are DSK-ISD Pune,
MAEERS Pune, MIT -Design Institute Pune and NID –National Institution Of Design
Ahemdabad. Aspirants should mainly consider the educational environment
provided by the school, scope for the practical learning and also the tie up of
schools with car producers for recruitment. One more fact to be considered in
Student Exchange Programs i.e a program under which students may go to foreign
schools to learn and vice versa. The benefit derived from such programs is that
the students are provided with an opportunity to learn not only in local
environment but also to develop themselves at international level. One
noticeable part is that it helps in attracting the international
customers/clients.
Car design
is the pinnacle of all designs. The person who wants to be car designer should
be thoughtful and experimental by nature, one should be an expert to solve
problems and always curious to know how things work out. Above all on should be
a good artist. If you have all these features surely you could become an
excellent designer. A good car designer initially earns a minimum of $ 60,000 Per
annum the earning may go up to $ 120,000 to $ 200,000 as the time passes by.
The earnings wholly depend upon the stats of car design. In India a car
designer earns about 8 to 12 Lakh on yearly basis.
The
priceless talents of students remain untapped as a result of non-availability
of information about car designing. Students due to the persuasion of parents
or as a matter of prestige, unwillingly take up Engineering, Medical and
Management courses. How can we expect students to show good performance in the
field where they are not interested? Aren’t we watching the results of the
same?
Off late
the time has changed to some extant. Now days, parents are trying to take care
of interests of there wards and providing the opportunity for children in take
up the course in which they are interested. It is a welcome development. At the
same time some of the students take up those courses for which their friends,
classmates apply. Such students also convince their parents on amount of
handsome earnings and bright future in such careers. But why do they plunge
back after few months? Such students
make self evaluation, find out their hidden talents and set up their career
preferences. It’s never too late to extract the hidden talents. Folks, talents
are there in everyone naturally by birth only the need is to polish and
enhancement. In India many are fidgety to become car designer. But they are
frustrated due to non-availability of information, no proper schools etc. The
information given here with might well help such aspirants.
A number
of people are still not aware that car designing is part of higher education.
There are specific schools who offer courses in car designing. One who learns
there has get a future to relish. There are different specializations in
engineering like automobile, mechanical, aeronautical etc, in the same way car
design is a specialization subject in Transportation design. Car designers hold
same importance as that of engineers in the process of car production. No one can
become a car designer only by completing Diploma/Engineering or Animation/3D
Modeling. A safe and secured future is available only to those who study at
specified schools.
