APC GAMES Gallery

PESA liaised with the executive committees of the Association of Geomatic Engineering Students (AGES) and the Civil Engineering Students’ Association (CESA) to present the first edition of our faculty games dubbed the APC games. The event featured basketball, football and some board games. Participation from the various associations was very impressive and we hope future administrations continue this initiative.”

FIELD TRIP Gallery

Field trips are organised to acquaint students with practical applications of theoretical concepts which they have been taught during the conduct of their course and to expose them to real life versions or the numerous engineering illustrations in their course.

During our tenure of office, the executive committee collaborated with the department to come up with slots in Expro Oilfield for the junior year and for the senior year, Schlumberger and Rigworld. The experience from these field trips helped students to have exposure to industrial practices thus playing an integral role in their training as future petroleum engineers.”

PESA WEEK Gallery

There usually is this uncertainty surrounding the success of any trailblazing event and the likelihood of it becoming a fiasco. The PESA WEEK was not spared of this uncertainty… But against all these odds, everything came out successful right from the first day (Official Monday) through to the Seminar day on Wednesday and finally to the last day of the week where we had our indoor games.The students enjoyed the moments and the most important aim of the event which was to promote closer relations among the students was achieved! We just had fun, made memories and made history too!

Why did you choose Petroleum Engineering? I actually chose this program facing stiff opposition from my parents and well-wishers who had wanted me to read Medicine instead. But my interests at the time did not really correlate with being a medical doctor. I can’t really point out what made Petroleum Engineering the ultimate choice but it just came to me, and after reading and hearing more about it, it seemed fascinating, so I chose it.

Preferred field of study: Somewhere in the area of Business Management or perhaps Law

Favorite quote: Pray as though everything depended on God, and also work as though everything depended on yourself.

How do you feel given this recognition: It’s an honour. It’s always a great feeling to be appreciated, especially for things you weren’t expecting. Thank you guys, God bless you.

What motivates you: My dreams and aspirations in life.

Briefly a message you would share. It is important to take advantage of the ‘little things’ that happen around us in school. The friends, the hangouts, the games, the extra-curricular group activities, our relationship with God, and all of that. The degree gives us a sort of entitlement, but these seemingly ‘little things’ are the ones that shape our lives and our future.
