2. INTRODUCTION TO CAUSE-EFFECT DIAGRAM:
Ishikawa diagrams (also called fishbone diagrams, herringbone
diagrams, cause-and-effect diagrams, or Fishikawa) are causal diagrams
created by Kaoru Ishikawa (1968) that show the causes of a specific
event. Common uses of the Ishikawa diagram are product design and
quality defect prevention, to identify potential factors causing an
overall effect. Each cause or reason for imperfection is a source of
variation. Causes are usually grouped into major categories to identify
these sources of variation.
Causes in the diagram are often categorized, such as to the 6 M's,
described below. Cause-and-effect diagrams can reveal key
relationships among various variables, and the possible causes provide
additional insight into process behavior.
Causes can be derived from brainstorming sessions. These groups can
then be labeled as categories of the fishbone. They will typically be one
of the traditional categories mentioned above but may be something
unique to the application in a specific case. Causes can be traced back
to root causes with the 5 Whys technique.

3. CAUSE EFFECT DIAGRAM (WHY-WHY LOGIC):
FOCUS ON PRODUCT QUALITY PERFORMANCE
LACK OF BRAND VALUE PLACEMENTS NO RESEARCH WORK
IGNORANCE OF TALENT LESS EXPOSURE QUALITY OF EDUCATION
VACANCY NO MAINSTREAM WORK CONCENTRATION ON GRADES
REQUIRE TRAINED EMLOYEES BRAND VALUE OF COLLEGE TIME VALUE OF COURSE
LESS EXPOSURE LOW DEVELOPMENT MARKETING PRACTICAL KNOWLEDGE
RECESSION COUNTRY’S ECONOMY
COMMUNICATION PRESENTATION 8% RULE NO KNOWLEDGE OF NEW TECHNOLOGY
LESS IMPACT RESEARCH

4. ROOT CAUSES:
1. Corporates
2. College
3. Academics
4. Skills and Abilities
5. Administration
6. New Technologies
SOLUTIONS:
1. Regular camps after a gap of around 15-30 days for practical
applications.
2. Discussion sessions should be organized so that, students could
interact and know how to present themselves.
3. Proper circular and notices should be issued regarding the
placements, companies their expectations.
4. Teachers should play a vital role in discussing new technologies .Also
student forum should be there in which discussions should take
place.
5. Teachers should incorporate some student interns on their research
work as they are full of energy and would bring something new.
6. Concept and understanding of the course is important not cramming
like fools which one can forget easily.
LESSONS LEARNED BY THE TEAM:

5. 1. Focus should be on practical knowledge.
2. One should have plenty of information to get involved in that
particular research work i.e. assisting teachers so that they also will
be interested in taking us.
3. Confidence and communication skills but little less knowledge is not
such a bad option.
4. Presentation is what one should mainly focus on.
