Dr. K P Mohandas served REC of our times and NIT of today for many decades with diligence and distinction.A product of College of Engineering Trichur and later doing advanced education at IIT.He could be easily labelled as one of the few academic experts in the area of Control System Theory of which he was a specialist. I mentioned somewhere earlier that I used to get high grades at the exams in his subjects.I was planning to visit the College of Engineering Trichur but will do so some time soon.COE Trichur is one of the earlier Engineering colleges put up in Kerala.
He had a methodical approach to teaching most of the time bringing notes to the class and progressing through the session in a systematic style and also was an intellectual in his own right.My Father used to share good rapport with him.
If I were to remember some of my teachers in the list would be Mrs. Starry who used used to teach Science at Lowry Memorial School in Bangalore,Mr Chandrashekar who used to teach Sanskrit at Sri Sathya Sai Arts Science and Commerce college in Whitefield and Mr. H K Nagaraj who used to teach Trigonometry and Mr. Hegde who used to teach Physics both of the above at Whitefield.In this list would come two more people Dr. P S Srinivasan who used to teach Induction Machines at REC NIT Calicut and Dr. K P Mohandas who used to teach Control theory at this place.
If there is one thing Professors can learn from him around the world never go into classes without some description or document which pertains to that particular session so that classes can be effective a lesson one can learn from Dr. K P Mohandas.
