Matrix – Engineer’s Handbook

It’s  semester time for almost all engineering students around the country especially the ones under WBUT in the state of West Bengal including me and eventually and obviously it brings me on the occasion of buying our most coveted book cum reference cum suggestion cum guide serving all purposes, theoretical to practical, ethical and unethical, analytical and psychological and many more – MATRIX. Ask any engineering student, the answer is always Yes. As engineering and technology is a vast field of study comprising of some dozens of streams and hundreds of subjects both common and uncommon to all the streams, its very tiresome and hectic and sometime impossible for the students and faculties to sum up the huge syllabi in the short period of time provided, say three months maximum barring all festivals and holidays. Moreover I personally being in the course for  six semesters already, could realize how strenuous task it is to collect notes going through different books of different authors , both national and international, specially before the examinations. Well, one may question why not study throughout the semester . The instant answer to this maybe the course structure, with number of laboratory works, projects, seminars and sessionals, it’s not always possible to keep a track. So the most easy solution is the matrix . Written by renowned faculties of renowned colleges & published by Matrix Educare Pvt . Ltd ., it is a syllabus oriented reference series as the say. Whatever material is there in the syllabus, is covered in matrix in simple language both as a text and in question-answer form. It is printed in web integrated edition and has got logo and ISO certification . It’s web address is www.matrixeducare.com It’s even helpful for the students who for some reasons have missed number of classes. Matrix is available for almost all subjects and costs one hundred and ninety five bucks only, which can be available at a lower price after discount.  Above all it has got online forums dealing with various activities like student-faculty discussion session, problem clarification, test series etc. And if you go to College Street, Kolkata, you will see the long ques to get one copy of matrix in hand. So it’s a good business option for booksellers also. Though some of the allegations that matrix is a ‘xerox material’ of some books and writing style is not that great, is to some extent acceptable, I would still vote for it, after all it’s a package and is nothing can be 100% beneficial.
