MITCORER: A Unique Path to Success

 

24th August 2020 is a momentous day for MIT College of Railway Engineering and Research (MITCORER), Barshi, as we celebrate the Foundation Day of our College. It is a milestone to cherish the wisdom, value and legacy that MAEER’s MIT is known for. 

On the very day of 2017, MITCORER was inaugurated by the auspicious hands of Hon. Dr. Vishwanath Karad, a visionary, an eminent educationist, philanthropist and an apostle of world peace. The establishment of a college dedicated to Railway Engineering is an example of his foresight and commitment to the society. The foundation of a Railway Engineering college in a place like Barshi is not only his vision but also a part of the mission to pay back to 'Janmabhumi' where he completed his schooling. It is a venture to contribute to the upliftment of the society. This endeavor is marching ahead under the able leadership of Hon. Swati Chate-Karad, Executive Director of MAEER’s MIT Group of Institutions. 

Three years might be a small time span for others but for us, it was a journey through many achievements, impasses and disappointments at times. It was a journey of enthusiasm and steady effort, which has brought us to this platform where MITCORER is serving the nation in the best way by imparting a spirit of inquiry in students mind, developing a sense of social commitment, building a strong industry–institute interface and achieving academic excellence. With the sole objective of meeting the long felt need of a center, catering the dire need of skilled manpower for railways and which would meet the challenges of the present and the future technical advancements in the fast changing railway sector, MITCORER was established. It was envisaged that it will stand out in providing one stop solution to all railway related problems through demand driven skill development program and excellence in education and research leading to successful career of a student.

Within a short period of time, MITCORER has traversed a path of rapid development in creating technological know-how, academic excellence and responsible global citizens. It has embarked on this unique journey of providing personalized guidance to all students and ensuring sound exposure to the latest practices in the industry. It is known for innovation, student-centric pedagogical practices and holistic social development policy. The students, apart from being sound engineers, are also leading cultural, sports and technological forefronts at various levels. An event like ‘RailMIT’ attracts talent across the nation in the field of Science, Technology and Engineering with special attention to recent developments and innovations in Railways. The pedagogy at MITCORER not only imparts a global perspective in learning but also cords them to the root of Indian values. This has resulted into excellent academic results and overall student’s transformational abilities. It believes in training students through practical demonstrations thereby aiding to their theoretical knowledge by organizing industrial visits, internships in industries along with strong collaborative industry-academia dialog; small group teaching, guest lectures, seminars, assignments, tests with continual assessment being a major part of its delivery methods.

Hence, MITCORER provides a unique amicable ambience for curiosity driven innovative teaching methodologies and evaluation strategies. It believes in excellence by equipping students with basic skill-sets, innovative research practices and conceptual thought process in frontier areas of Science, Technology and Engineering for furthering the career prospects and giving impetus to creative potentiality in the field of engineering with special concern to railways. MITCORER strongly upholds helping students to move forward with a collaborative initiative to achieve all round excellence. It creates scientific temperament for holistic development of the students for social cohesion and harmony, adopting high values thereby giving hand to the development of the nation.

Structural Engineering

Image
Structural engineering is the branch of Civil Engineering in which theory is based upon physical laws and empirical knowledge of the structural performance of different materials. Structural engineering design utilizes a number of simple structural elements to build complex structural systems. Structural engineering is a specialty within the field of civil engineering which focuses on the framework of structures, and on designing those structures to withstand the stresses and pressures of their environment and remain safe, stable and secure throughout their use. In other words, structural engineers make sure that buildings don't fall down and bridges don't collapse.  Critical skills that a person needs in structural engineering include an in-depth understanding of physics and mathematics. A structural engineer must also know the properties of various materials, such as their density, hardness, tensile strength, bulk modulus and bending strength. They need to be able to calculat...
