The brand value of NIT Trichy offers certain advantages. When my friend joined his first company, the IIT and NIT pass-outs were put in the best projects.

There are several alumni of NIT Calicut who have contributed a lot towards the development and upliftment of NIT Calicut and its students. One of them is Mr. Prakash Shetty, the founder and Managing Director of Gasotech India Ltd. 

• The company Gasotech Consultancy and Marketing Services was established back in 2005 by Mr. Prakash Shetty, who already had experience in Rotating Machinery for over 20 years in M/S Engineers India Ltd (EIL).
• Mr. Prakash Shetty is very much involved in spreading modern technical awareness in the institute. He supports the institute a lot in the technical and cultural fests, namely Tathva and Ragam.
• He has funded several teams from the institute in various projects and works, through sponsorship. There was an instance in 2012 when a team called TUW faced a shortage of funds in an off-road vehicle designing and manufacturing competition. One of my friends was on that team. Mr. Shetty came forward and supported the team monetarily.
• He has funded several teams in various technical events and competitions that have helped students gain experience for their career paths.

To conclude, the monetary and technical aid from Mr. Prakash Shetty is great support for the students of NIT Calicut and is in a way a great help in critical circumstances to many deserving students.
