From Campus to Corporate Leadership: A Journey Built on Strong Foundations
My time at Kathir College of Engineering as part of the 2012 batch was transformative in ways I couldn’t have anticipated when I first walked through those gates. The institution didn’t just provide me with an engineering degree—it equipped me with the skills, mindset, and confidence to excel in a competitive global industry.
The comprehensive curriculum and dedicated faculty at Kathir College fostered both technical excellence and professional discipline. The emphasis on quality standards, systematic problem-solving, and attention to detail during my undergraduate years laid the groundwork for what would eventually become my career specialization in Quality Assurance.
What truly set my college experience apart was the practical exposure and industry-oriented approach to learning. The projects, internships, and interactions with industry professionals gave me insights that textbooks alone couldn’t provide. This real-world perspective proved invaluable as I transitioned from student to professional.
Today, as the Head of Quality Assurance at Cable Solutions PLC in Sri Lanka, I draw upon the strong analytical skills and engineering principles I learned at Kathir College. The college taught me that quality isn’t just about meeting standards—it’s about exceeding expectations, a philosophy that drives my work every day.
To future engineers: Kathir College of Engineering offers more than education—it offers transformation. The knowledge, values, and professional ethics instilled here will serve as your compass throughout your career, wherever in the world it takes you.
