NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY,

TIRUCHIRAPPALLI

From the Director’s Desk


I hope you had an enjoyable one month at home with your family/friends/in NIT hostel
(some of you are here). As you know, these are unprecedented times as something like
this has never happened in the life time of three generations! You are seeing history
being made, on demand innovations happening, nature recuperating from our
onslaught; money, power and wealth loosing significance.
We at the Institute, have been struggling hard to keep the momentum going on all
fronts, for all stakeholders. The academic calendar is being reworked, the placements
are intact for almost all, researchers are working online and offices are working with
skeletal staff.
The Student community across the globe is going through a crisis at this juncture. As a
student of NIT Tiruchirappalli, you can be rest assured that we are making the best
possible efforts to see that the COVID pandemic will not affect your future plans.
1. Academics: A committee is working on the Academic calendar to complete the
activities as early as possible. Alternate examination and evaluation strategies
are also being worked out. Please spend time to refresh your fundamentals.
There is no withdrawal of offer letters as of now, hence no need to worry about
placements. Be in touch with your Faculty advisor and Head of Department for
updates.
2. Connectivity: The connectivity to digital resources is becoming extremely
important and hence it is advised to equip yourself with suitable connectivity for
seamless transition to online classes/examination/ and evaluation, which is
becoming the new normal.
3. Productive use of time: Make the best use of this time, by registering for online
courses and equip yourself with the skill sets required to survive in the new
emerging environment, the new economy, the new work norms, the new social
restrictions.
4. Learn something new: Spend some time every day to learn something new, say
a new language, develop a new hobby, write, read, sketch, sing, blog, involve in
craft activities, design interactive games, develop methods to educate the masses
who are not as privileged, develop positive campaigns that can be of use to
society at large.
5. Help at home & society: Spend some time to have dialogue with parents, help
with home chores, be it cooking, cleaning, washing, taking care of senior citizens,
neighbours, and more important, volunteer to keep the toilets disinfected.
6. Stay healthy and be kind to Nature: At this moment, the most important aspect
is to stay healthy, don’t undertake any activity, which will reduce your immunity.
Think what is the lesson you learned from this pandemic, what changed in your
life in terms of protecting Mother Nature?
Hope to see you back on Campus, soon! Till then, stay at home and stay safe
Don’t hesitate to show this letter to your parents/guardians.

Best wishes…… Mini Shaji Thomas, Director, NIT Tiruchirappalli
