A study on Accounting students' perception on employability skills in University of Technology and Applied Sciences, Muscat
No full textAbstract: Universities are expected to contribute the economic growth of the country by preparing the graduates with necessary academic skills. Students are focusing more on knowledge or the course contents but put less effort on the skill that are inventible for them to master in their chosen field. This study is focusing on the perception of accounting graduates of UTAS about employability skill that they should possess. The study found that the students feel Learning and Development skills are not necessary for employability irrespective of gender or the year of study. Learning and Development skills include working in teams, able to adapt technology, communication skills, lifelong learning and problem solving skills. When subject knowledge is compared with the year of study, the authors found that the students did not give importance to subject knowledge as well. However, Life/Career skills are considered to be valuable skills by the students whether it is compared with gender or year of study. The authors recommend that the students must be educated on the importance of Learning and development skills and subject knowledge, which will help them in securing a good job in the future. It will also help to solve the unemployment problems in the society.

Assessment of physiochemical and microbial concentrations in different fresh waters in Tiruchirappalli city: A special emphasize on their correlation
No full textThe six fresh water samples belonging to three different sources (Cauvery river water, ground water and bottle drinking water) from Tiruchirappalli city were collected (bi-monthly sampling) during April 2014 to June 2014 for physiochemical and microbiological study. Bacterial and physiochemical parameters levels were two to ten folds higher in river water sample than in ground and bottle water due to discharges of municipal sewage and human activities. The elevated bacterial communities in May month indicated that which received waste materials from landside and more visits due to the lack of water scarcity. The higher pollution index (PI) ratio (>1) were observed in river water samples (than the ground and bottle water) in all the three months indicate the human fecal matters were responsible for water pollution. The order of decreasing microbial and physiochemical values were: May month > April month > June month. The correlation proved that physicochemical parameters were strongly supported to microbial communities due to addition of rich organic content in the water bodies from different pollution sources. Based on the report, this study was suggesting that throughout impoundment is needed to protect fresh water sources
