Track: Global Engineering Education

Abstract

Indian technical Education facing lots of challenges and the value based education trying to narrow the gap between the industry expectations and outcome of the education. The value based education focusing on the out of box thinking alongwith strategic development of innovations among young minds is emerging as a new model of teaching learning process. The engineering technology innovations leading way to application of new technology into a existing one. These applications are emerging from the campus through the student projects. The student teams develops the projects into products. The innovations are safeguarded through patents. The challenge of sustainability of the innovations by rural students is of the choice between the employability and being an early entrepreneur. The economic positions of the students play a prominent role and the intention to continue the idea into product design facing setbacks. The solution for the problem may be sought in many ways depending on the connectivity of the campus and networking in this transparent digital world.
