Civil House - Thank you Abhirami!

As part of the alumni interaction series, Civil House, Abhirami V (2020-24 batch) who is currently the Billing Engineer, Pidilite, Mumbai interacted with the final year students on 7 August 2024. She spoke warmly about her experiences and the positive impact of her teachers at our campus. Abhirami had five offers in her hand at the time of completing the course!

Abhirami spent some time to detail how the Add-On Courses offered by the department helped her in finding the first job. She stressed on the importance of practical skills she was able to acquire through the add on courses. According to her, there are lot of opportunities for civil engineers, one should put in efforts to acquire the required skill sets and prepare well for interview along with studies.

Abhirami's session was very inspiring and motivated the students. Before leaving, she did not forget to click a photo with her teachers in front of the department.

Thank you Abhirami! We are proud of you!
