However, in fast sprinkling

world of today where the

science and technology reign

supreme, day to day

implication of new

technology created by

engineering is meaningful for

society and sensitive to

societal concerns. Now-a-days technical knowledge

plays very vital and important part in our education

system. It makes all the difference in outlook. I wish

it helps all of the learners to acquire better knowledge

and enhance their view of judgment

Look at the sky, we are not alone. The whole

universe is friendly to us and conspires only to give

the best to those who dream and work.

We are extremely happy to

bring out our college

newsletter Volume 09,Issue-I.

Challenges and Opportunities

are two sides of the same

coin. Modern education,

curriculum development and

teaching methodologies have

to keep pace with the demand of the economic

environment. The manager, businessman and the

entrepreneur of today need many more weapons in

armory. Holistic education should include all round

development of a student.

Overall development of the individual is the goal of

education and we all have to ensure that there is no

stone left unturned to equip the student of today for

the challenges of life. This will require tremendous

self-motivation on the part of all concerned but will be

fulfilling for the student as well as the faculty.

The magazine is presenting a glimpse of the growth

of the institution on many fronts. This magazine has

recorded achievements such as: conferences,

workshop, faculty development programme, seminars

conducted and attended by staff members and

students. This newsletter highlighted the students’

achievements as Students Participated in various

competitions and events in regional level, state level

and national level and won in many events. BKIT

Research and development centre enables the

students and staff to take up Innovative projects with

help of management, Karnataka Govt. & Vision Group

of Science and Technology (VGST), KCST and other

government funding agencies.

We look forward to receiving many more issue of

newsletter that give us information and interesting

articles so that we can enrich our knowledge.

Reading this magazine would definitely be an

inspiration and motivation for all students and staff to

contribute even more to the forthcoming issues. We

hope that everyone would continue to give their full

efforts to keep the momentum and continue to

enhance the standards of the newsletter.
