What extra things should a civil engineering student do in his B. Tech. to improve his chances at a brilliant career in engineering?
1. Internships, as everyone here mentioned, preferably at site would be ideal. Sweat it out and be sincere. General tendency of students is "yaar hafte mein ek baar chale jaayenge.. sab same hi to ho raha h.. sab samaj aa jaayega (We will go once a week... everything is being repeated.. we will understand it all easily) ". This is the biggest mistake that we do. Stay there and go there daily, because you never know what you may encounter. Sometimes even the most minute things like grouting and filling may be something that the company asks you. You would be surprised to know that I have had people at my sites who were new hires and weren't even aware of curing. And their resumes had big internships on them. So even if you make through it once, you may not last. So try staying at site and see what is happening. See it daily, it helps you memorize and visualize the sequence of activities, which will help you when you become project managers.2. Learn AutoCAD atleast, if you are interested to work as a design engineer. Rest is all taught by the companies. StaadPRO is another higher level software used in structural design.3. Try your hands on MS Project first, and then Primavera if you are interested to join the project planning team.4. Know your SFDs and BMDs well. A majority of companies have these standard questions on SFD and BMD, as they all come for recruiting structural designers.Basically, know your basics well and try to mould your interview in the direction that you are confident about. I twisted my interview by LnT from regular SFDs and BMDs to construction management and concrete technology. And finally got selected amongst the top 4 out of 70. All that a company looks for is a confident candidate, in whatever area you are interested, and be true to them. It is easy to crack an interview if you have been on sites and have experienced the stuff, because then it is crystal clear to you and your explanation will say for itself. All the best!
How is Brazil in stage 4 of the demographic transition model?
Demographic transition in Brazil The first census (1872) to the most recent (2000), radical changes occurred in the indicators of mortality and fertility in Brazil. As societies as they develop, the mortality rates began falling well before the birth, more exactly by 1950, reaching the level of 7 per thousand inhabitants (in 2000) - a number that should be maintained for Because of the increase in the elderly population. On the other hand, high birth rates followed by the 1960. In the decade of 1970 began the descent of births, which increases after 1990. Between 1991 and 2003, the rates have shown a continued decrease in births and the mortality rate stability. As a result of these changes over a period of 20 years was substantial change in the age distribution of the population: if in 1980 most of the population were aged 0-4 years, since 2000 she has focused on track 15 to 19 years. In 2000, therefore, Brazil was the third phase of demographic transition

What are the risks of taking out a 25-lakh educational loan for an MS program in the US?
thanks for the A2A,There is very minimal risk arising from doing an MS and you have to do really bad if the risk becomes a reality! An MS is simply coursework. If you are sincere, you can just cruise through. Funding you MS: Although MS is (typically) not funded, one can find on-campus jobs that pay in the range - $10/hr to $20/hr. Talented (and fortunate) students can also find GSR (Graduate student researcher) employment with a faculty that pays of full tuition and a monthly stipend. Summer Internship: This is a big help! as one can earn $25k during summers that should cover half of your MS needs! Return on Investment:MS gives you an opportunity to apply for jobs in US. These are typically high-paying jobs that can pay for your MS costs in just 8 months. Thereafter, you have no debt and a job in the silicon valley to continue and grow further! I was in your position 6 years ago! and then I left for Masters. I worked as a soccer match referee (an on-campus job) for 6 months before getting a GSR position that funded the rest of my Masters. I got 4 internship offers for summer (Yahoo!, Facebook, Cloudera and Adobe) and got as many full time offers upon graduation. In my case, I had found graduate studies so fascinating that I decided to continue for a PhD (getting it in 3 months from now). I would suggest the following...take the step, explore by doing a MS, whatever funds you put in, would be recovered in 8 months, but you would be left with a learning experience, a graduate degree that stays with you forever, a job in the silicon valley and a career to look forward to, and who knows you may rediscover your interests and explore further in research by doing a PhD.
