Narendra Kumar Joshi's Review On MBM Engineering College - [MBM], Jodhpur

Very Good, the college was amongst best Govt colleges of Rajasthan and was having highest strength of students. At that time Govt. Engg. Colleges were at Jaipur, ( Regional College), Jodhpur and Kota only.

Good faculty such as Prof. Alam Singh, Prof. BC Punmia, Prof. Ramachandra who were writers of many books were used to teach us. The college was Govt. College of good repute in Civil Engineering having syllabus covering a competitive exams. The students were taught through practical trainings, projects and actual survey.

Many students qualified for IAS, IPS and IPSC Indian Engineering Services.No internships was there for Engineers but practical trainings were must.

I participated in Cultural Activities viz. Debates, Poems esp. patriotic poems in College and Hostels and obtained either first or second position in them. All college functions which were organised were also used to attend by me while participating in them.

Being Govt. College very nominal Fees were charged say Rs.2500/ month or so say Rs 30000 annually. The hostel fees of Rs 9000/ per month excluding mess charges was in addition to it. Mess facility were either through contractor or managed by hostellers themselves on contributory basis.

Need cum Merit Scholarship as per Govt policies,my father was low paid Railway employees and I was good in my studies so opted for this scharship.

In two batch's namely five years and four years there were only two girls Students Only 2 out of approxGood faculty such as Prof. Alam Singh, Prof. BC Punmia, Prof. Ramachandra who were writers of many books were used to teach us. The college was Govt. College of good repute in Civil Engineering. 200 students.

No hostel facility was provided in first year, in second year triple seated hostel rooms, in third year double seated room and in Final year single seTed rooms were provided, choice of rooms and hostels was strictly as per merit.

In initial years the Ranging tradition was there say in first and second year, we were having fear with our seniors but later on this ragging system was discontinued. Our seniors esp. those of our home town or district.

I was having much interest in mathematics and was good in that. In my family my elder brothers were doctors and hence I opted for Engg. course. The level of honour was highest for Engineers at that time. Qualified Through PET and got admission in first year in year 1983.

Best,Good faculty such as Prof. Alam Singh, Prof. BC Punmia, Prof. Ramachandra who were writers of many books were used to teach us. The college was Govt. College of good repute in Civil Engineering. The faculty were more or less permanent otherwise at that time faculty was changing frequently after obtaining job elsewhere.
