Now as the new Central Library has been inaugurated, it is located in the centre of campus so students from any department can come and use their time in some creative activity. There are various floors dedicated for each work. Ground floor is only for book returning. 1st floor is dedicated for the students who are interested in reading books. There is a huge hall with separate portions for boys and girls. A very good number of books on almost every subject are available with electronic catalogue system. Now students dont need to rush towards mid-point after being free from classes because its a very good place and students will really love to sit there and utilize their time. 2nd floor is for book issuing. Book issuing system is also new and nice. Now students dont need to wait whole day for their turn to get the books but they just have to go and search for books themselves. If some one finds the books, can get issued easily.
As the library has just started working, its timing is 9am 2 pm. But we hope it will soon be opened in evening as well so that the hostellers can utilize it more effectively. There is no any photo copying, printing and scanning facility at the moment. We request higher authorities to please consider such things so that students may get as more as possible from the Library for which they had been waiting for years.
SACS
COMMITTEES WHICH CAN PROVIDE A PLATFORM FOR EVERY STUDENT AND HELP ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF STUDENTS LIFE..
Importance of SACs The activities of a student should not only be confined to books. There are a number of activities that the student should engage himself into, which would help him and other students as well. To initiate such a committee, the first thing that the student should realize is the thing which he is best at. Either its leadership, management, problem solving, or a lot of other factors could be taken into consideration. By establishing a student action committee, an individual is actually nourishing his personality, the environment and providing his services to other individuals in a better way. This would enhance his confidence, leadership skills, time management skills, problem solving, team management and a number of other elements. These committees provide a platform to students to engage in a number of projects that are hard to initiate on standalone basis. For example, a student cannot initiate a blood bank all by himself, he has to engage a lot of other people in his project. This is where the need of an effective Student Action Committee arises. MUST -- A Student Action Committee at Mehran UET! Mehran Universitys students have brought some revolutionary ideas that shape in M.U.S.T forum. MUST is a non-political body and most of its agenda and activities are concerned with the campus life of the students. The acute and primary task of M.U.S.T forum is to understand the students educational needs and provide them the solutions of respective subjects problems. M.U.S.T forum is currently in its infant stages but progressing with the support of all teachers of concerned departments, efforts of its members and appreciable students corporation of various disciplines. Organizational Structure of the MUST forum
M.U.S.T forum has now targeted the students of 09 & 08 batches of Electronics, Telecommunication, Bio-medical & Software engineering departments and providing its maximum services to troubleshoot the different problems of students. It will be heading throughout the MUET in near future. M.U.S.T forum has finally laid down its foundation and managed to hold its 1st general meeting, comprising of all the members from their respective departments, in which the constitution containing the core aims and objects of the forum were put forward in front of all members for an open debate. All members were taken in confidence and finally different responsibilities were distributed amongst the nominated members who have been actively participating since the organizations birth. The members of the M.U.S.T forum being students themselves are very well aware of the difficulties that a student encounters and have keen interest and will in solving those problems. Aims and objectives of MUST We are the interface between the students and the administration and we work together to identify and address concerns that affect the students directly and indirectly. It represents the interests of the students and participates in discussions and decisions that affect the student community. To represent and voice for the students of Mehran UET. To help students of MUET in developing academic skills. To help students of MUET in developing their professional skills. To help students of MUET in coping the life at campus problems. To organize, participate and encourage extra-curricular activities for and by the Students. Current Projects Following are some projects that the MUST forum has already initiated in each of its chapters:
+ Committee on Learning Assistance: M.U.S.T forum has initiated a team that is dedicated
in providing the learning assistance by conducting lectures in those subjects in which a student finds difficulties within the university premises in the free hours (specially for junior batches).
InfoTech: The idea is to aware the students (specially from junior batches) about different projects & thesis that are under development. A file will be brought on the wall which will list all the projects/thesis currently being worked on and it will also suggest new final year project or mini project ideas based on latest and innovative technologies for them to consider.
Group Discussions: M.U.S.T forum realizes to build a consensus among all the students. Keeping in view that the forum is designing a strategy to initiate a program of group discussions among all the willing students, the topic will be pasted on the students notice board a week before so the students willing to participate can prepare themselves to have a debate on the topic. In the similar manner, small seminars can also be organized.
+ FEECE e-Newsletter: M.U.S.T forum has dedicated a team of its volunteers which regularly
releases an e-newsletter under the supervision of Sir Fahim Umrani on the 15th of every month through an online yahoo group sar_muet. Following the directions of Sir Fahim, steps are being taken to make the newsletter available to students through the library and through the notice boards in hard form.

Mehran University Students Team:
Student's Life Committee: Many students come to MUET scare of ragging and bullying but when the left they often have tears in their eyes. But they all start loving this institute in hard way. We aim to stimulate the process of enjoying campus life as quickly as possible. The core objective of this committee is to help the students quickly familiarize with the campus life of MUET and make him/her part of our big family!
Establish Blood bank where each student will
be requested to provide his/ her details of Blood group and contact address so that they can be approached in the times of emergency Already started working. where the volunteers/officials will accumulate the first hand information of how to apply for hostel rooms in MUET and contact details for private property lenders in Jamshoro/ Hyderabad.
Recreational Committee where the volunteers/officials will organize Accommodation Committee
one-day or multi-day tours during Weekends, Mid-terms, winter or summer vacations. And also make efforts to organize Sporting events (inter-departmental or interuniversity or even at higher level). This recreational committee should NOT need any financial support and has the potential to sustain it. As throughout world (and don't forget we too are part of this world) students pay themselves for Tours and participation in Sporting Events. Of course when they will organize they will get all sorts of benefits and Discounts from University and of course the owners of touring spots. Event Organizing Committee where the officials will take efforts to organize Workshops/ Seminars/Conferences/Extra Classes/Quiz, Book fairs, debate or Project Competitions.
Students Money Matters Committee where the members will accumulate the information for different scholarships and every student will be able to get necessary information from one point. In this regard, 2KES Scholarship Foundation supporting students financially has agreed to closely work with MUST to bring this foundation under the umbrella of Students Money Matters Committee.

MUETs Women Affair Female students or the staff of MUET faces most problems than any body else, ranging from access to proper transport, obnoxious hooting, stalking to sexual harassment and gender discrimination. We believe that some of those problems can be resolved if we coordinate and organize. Keeping this in mind MUST forum has decided to form a committee exclusively for the Women at MUET. We also hope that the female staff teaching and otherwise will also honor us by becoming part of this committee.
We also intend to engage closely with Student Welfare department and MUETs Sport department to work together for the welfare of Students. We are confident in hoping that seeing our passion and determination the officials of SWD and Sports section will encourage and cooperate with us in best possible manner. MUST forum is now being officially registered by the cooperation of Chairman ES Sir Bhawani Shankar Chowdhry. For that we are ever grateful to him. We, as representative of the MUST forum, would also like to thank our Vice Chancellor Prof. Dr. Abdul Qadeer Rajput for considering our request to legalize this forum. We would also like to request the higher authorities to stretch out their hands for their essential cooperation and to help us so that we can extend this forum to other departments as well and cover the whole university. We would like to end this article thanking you for reading and with the following quote Self improvement can be achieved but not with a quick fix.

INTERNSHIP AT SIEMENS
BY Kapal Dev 07ES60 Edited By Ms. Maya 07ES72
Nowadays, everyone is crazy for doing internship in vacations, so was I this summer. Let me share my perception about what an internship is. It is actually a process in which a student or recent graduate gets practical training under experts supervision. Interns are usually university students, but they can be post graduate adults as well, seeking skills for a better career. An internship may be paid, unpaid or partially paid (in the form of a stipend). Paid internships are most common in the medical, architecture science, engineering, law, business (especially accounting and finance), and technology and advertising fields Internships may be part-time or full-time; typically they are part-time during the university year and full-time in the summer. I did internship this summer (b/w June- July) at SIEMENS, where I got a chance to enhance my practical knowledge and abilities. Siemens usually send interns to project working site, in order to get maximum benefit but, unfortunately they couldnt manage that for me due certain reasons. Siemens is working in almost six to seven cities of Pakistan i-e, Karachi, bhitshah, Sehwan etc. I have visited different sections there like automation, infrastructure and transformer section. After visiting these sections I have got some practical knowledge but it would have been better if they have taken me to their project working site but still I must say something is better than nothing. Here are few pictures of automation and infrastructure departments, which I visited.
Many universities give awards that financially support students over the summer in lieu of full-time internships so that they can develop their entrepreneurial skills. Previously MUET was not part of it but it is good to know that now and onwards it will support through the platform of IEEE-MUET students chapter. Internship may or may not contribute in order to get a handsome job nowadays but it is always a good experience. Its always good to see actual work environment of companies that will help us a lot in future and will not let us face any type of problem. Different teachers suggested me that you must do at least, one internship during your four years bachelors life and also do some useful courses/workshops related to our field. NOTE: if any body wants to do internship in Siemens, he/she must have following things and go through this process: You must have university letter, CV and two passport size photos. Above documents must be submitted to Rana Fahid Rasheed in HR department.

In the SRAM logic cell, instead of conventional gates there is instead a Look Up Table (LUT) which determines the output based on the values of the inputs. (In the SRAM logic cell diagram above you can see 6 different combinations of the 4 inputs that will determine the values of the output). SRAM bits are also used to make connections. One-time programmable (OTP) FPGAs use anti-fuses (contrary to fuses, connections are made not blown during programming) to make permanent connections in the chip and so do not require a SPROM or other means to download the program to the FPGA. However, every time you make a design change, you must throw away the chip! The OTP logic cell is very similar to PLDs with dedicated gates and flip-flops.
