Education & Training

Education and Training for IT in Mining, Geology, Plants / Industrial Automation:

Can a Degree holder in Mining, Petroleum, Geology, Environment Science, Civil, Mechanical, Production & related branch earn a job in IT / Software ?

Yes, Its possible, By:

• Joining a IT company as a fresher after clearing a common Aptitude / Programming test / exam

• Earning Master Degree in IT / Computers (there are very few IITs / NITs offering admission to non-IT degree holders in IT / Computers)

• Earning a Master Degree in Smart Manufacturing, Industry 4.0, CAD / CAM, Mechatronics, Robotics, GIS / Remote Sensing, Industrial Engineering etc.

• Getting an additional certification in IT / Computers e.g. CDAC (https://www.cdac.in/index.aspx)

• Learning ERP / SAP modules (QM, PP, SD, MM, PM, PS, SCM, R&D Engg, Transportation Management, etc.) (Refer :https://training.sap.com/ )

• Learning PLM Software / Applications (One of most popular PLM tool company is PTC, Refer: https://www.ptc.com/en/products/plm

• Learning GIS applications (https://www.esri.com/training/catalog/57630434851d31e02a43ef28/getting-started-with-gis/ )

• Getting trained on a Software / Solutions used in respective field (Mining / Civil / Mechanical / Production / Plant Engineering)

• Becoming a Domain expert in the respective area and work as a Functional consultant who an help in developing applications related to that particular field (e.g. Mining, Civil, Mechanical, Production etc.)
