Engineering students who will complete their graduation this year will find it difficult to get used to the advanced technology being used in the corporate world. The university which designs the engineering course should concentrate on upgrading the infrastructure and improving the quality of teaching to meet industrial standards.
Which of the following assumptions does the above argument make?
There are more engineering students than job openings this year.
The engineering students graduating this year are not very determined or intelligent
The infrastructure and teaching faculty currently available for engineering students is not up to corporate technological standards.
Engineering students will probably pursue management education instead of taking up jobs.
An assumption is something that has been taken for granted while making the argument. In the above argument the premise is that engineering students this year will find adjusting to the corporate world difficult. On the basis of this premise and some assumptions the author draws a conclusion about the measures the university should take.
In this case it is obvious that option (C) is the most probable assumption that the author may have made to arrive at the given conclusion since it is directly related to the action suggested by the author.
Options (a) and (d) are not relevant to the argument about the students not being able to adjust or the course of action for the university.
Option (b) may be true; however, if the author had made this assumption then the suggested course of action would not have been related to the university upgrading infrastructure and teaching. So option (b) cannot be the correct answer.
Hence, the correct answer is option c.
