Growth and Success Story
When I joined PCP (1999), it was one of the few colleges in PCMC offering Diploma programs. The Computer Engineering stream was relatively new with not many facilities as we have today. Even in this challenging situation, college ensured students get quality education and basic facilities.
The college played a vital role in building my career. The teaching staff during my college tenure provided right guidance to students to make sure they are ready to face future challenges in their career ahead. They helped students addressing their question right time building self-confidence. I recently visited the college and was happy to know that the staff still remembers Ex-students. It was a pleasant experience to see college growing in terms of infrastructure as well education quality. I must say, College’s progress in past two decades has been remarkable! I appreciate the efforts put in by all concerned in PCP to reach this level and wish them very best to reach greater heights.

PCP has played a pivotal role in whatever I have achieved till date, and I continue to engage with PCP on several aspects, hence it continues to be part of my journey. PCP has always intrigued me in a number of ways - I consider my days of diploma engineering in PCP as the building blocks to my academic and personal accomplishments. PCP gives that special opportunity to those passionate minds and out-of-the-box thinkers to realize their aspirations and succeed in them. With an energetic and forward-thinking management, outstanding faculty and diverse student population, it is one of those enriching eco-systems which I feel is hard to find these days.

Taking the following lines from the book "The Secret", this is what I truly believe in: "The universe likes speed. Don't delay. Don't second guess. Don't doubt. When the opportunity is there, when the impulse is there, when the intuitive nudge from within is there, just ACT. That's your job!" In this process you are bound to make mistakes but the most important thing is to learn from your mistakes. Life is too short; don't repeat the mistakes but you can make a new one! Explore all the opportunities even the tiniest one, it will surely have something for you. Don't have preconceived notions, always be open to learning!
