MBA PLACEMENT 2012
FROM PRESIDENT'S DESK, RGIPT
Message
“The task of a university is the creation of the future....” said Alfred North Whitehead. The essence of an
educational institution is aptly captured in the above saying. Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum
Technology (RGIPT) derives its core values from this spirit and envisions becoming a world class
educational entity to serve as a fountainhead for nurturing 'Petrocrats'.
The ever growing energy demand worldwide has triggered enormous growth in the E&P sector. Similarly,
the downstream sector has become more competitive with the entry of private sector in both refining of
crude and marketing of petroleum products. Gas is the fuel of the future and the country has responded well
to the surging gas demands. The natural gas sector is expanding rapidly with a nationwide distribution
network being planned. Globalization has changed the scenario of Indian petroleum world and many
Indian oil and gas majors have intensified their overseas activities. This in turn has fuelled the demand of
professionals armoured with knowledge of latest technologies. This changing dynamics of the industry and
the need to have a balanced energy mix necessitated the development of a specialized institution which can
serve as a training ground for skilled professionals who will play a pivotal role in supplying the energy
demand of the country.
RGIPT with its long list of reputed patrons is poised to provide professionals with right set of skills to
industries. While brainstorming the type of model to be adopted, it emerged to develop the institute as a
“Corporate University” to bridge academia-industry gap and also to achieve active participation of
industry in its governance and development. The pioneer undergraduate batch of RGIPT is inculcated with
technical skills and values, which believes in pursuing the tradition of excellence. RGIPT is ready with its
pioneer batch of undergraduate and 3rd batch of M. Tech. and MBA, which is well equipped to understand
the dynamics of industry. I am confident that the students would utilize this opportunity for moulding their
creativity and lay the foundation of a world-class lineage.
I take this opportunity to invite national and international companies for undergraduate and post graduate
placements. I am sure your organization will serve as a dynamic learning ground for our students preparing
them for industry challenges.
D. M. Reddy
