Ans: I appreciate your keen desire to enhance your knowledge and skills as I believe it is
never too late.
It would be best for you to speak to your colleagues at work on the options available for
you as an employee to enrol for higher studies. They will also be able to help you
identify a local Polytechnic where you can seek admission into a part-time diploma
program that you can complete in 2 years (instead of 3 years of study). Once you
complete your diploma you can enrol for a degree program as a part-time student and
earn a degree after 3 years of study.

Hi, I am Mandar Kulkarni working as a mechanical engineer (prod &QA-QC dept) since last 10 years in fabrication sector. I want to switch in design kindly suggest which course is better form me.

Ans: Hi Mandar,

As a mechanical engineer with a background in production and quality control in the fabrication sector, you have several options to pursue a career in design. Here are a few suggestions for courses that could be beneficial for you:

CAD/CAM Course: Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) are essential tools for mechanical design. With a CAD/CAM course, you can learn how to use software such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or CATIA to create designs, simulate product behavior, and prepare manufacturing instructions.

Product Design Course: A product design course can help you develop your skills in conceptualizing, prototyping, and developing a product from start to finish. This course will teach you about materials, production processes, and the design principles that ensure a product's functionality, aesthetics, and usability.

Finite Element Analysis Course: Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a simulation technique used to analyze a product's behavior under different loading and boundary conditions. A FEA course can help you learn how to create and analyze designs using software such as ANSYS or Abaqus.

Industrial Design Course: Industrial design is a broad field that encompasses the design of consumer products, appliances, furniture, and more. This course will teach you about the design process, aesthetics, ergonomics, and market research, among other things.

Ultimately, the choice of the course depends on your interests and career goals. Consider your strengths and what you enjoy doing, and then choose a course that aligns with those factors. Good luck!

Regards,
Abhishek Shah

Hi Sunil, I am planning to buy a under construction Apartment and to fund it, I intend to partly withdraw my Provided Fund(PF). I also have funds available from the sale of my parental flat that was sold around 4-5 months ago (when the parental flat was sold it was on my mother's name). I want to buy the NEW apartment jointly in my Mom's and my name, so that amount received from sale of parental flat is reinvested and capital gains can be avoided on Mom's behalf. However the challenge, I have is, according to the norms of PF, I cannot have joint name other than spouse, if I am using funds from Provided Fund(PF). Please can you suggest me, how I can withdraw from Provided Fund(PF) and also use proceedings from parental flat sale.

Ans: You can withdraw the funds of PF in your account, transfer those funds to either an account which has a joint holdership of you and mom or your individual name and then make the payment for the house from any of the 2 accounts.
