TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT CENTER:
PTF’s aim is
to explore
how
Engineering colleges
in
India
can
collaboratively
approach
to
improve
the
quality
of
learning,
Promote
In-house R&D
activities
and
for
generating
industry
ready
pool
of
Engineers.
PTF provides information
about
collaborative
activity that
aims at channelizing
efforts put
by
engineering colleges for
humanizing
fineness.
a.
Discusses the factors
that
underlie the
need for
improvements
in present
engineering
education.
b.
Provides
examples
of ways
in which
colleges
can
collaborate to improve
the
quality of
education,
between and
among
colleges, and
with
external agencies.
c.
Identifies
and comments
on issues
arising from
the collaborative
initiatives; and
d.
Identifies ways forward in using collaboration to improve quality
of education.
This
study is based on:
a.
Desk
research
into Industry
expectations
from
budding
Engineers.
b.
Visits to
few
engineering colleges
and
interviews
with staff
at various
levels.
c.
Conclusions
of
Interviews
with
staff
in
other
agencies
and
Top
level
management executives from
industry.
There
is an
urgent
need to
upgrade
the quality
of
engineering education
in
India,
to
produce engineers
of
professional
excellence,
and
to
prepare our engineering students
for better
career opportunities.
In brief
our plan
is
“Making
Graduates
more
Employable
and
self-assured”
by imparting
required
level
of
technical
expertise
as
well
as
innovativeness while
in their
graduation.
The
drive
to
improve
technology orientation
through
collaborative
approaches
generally
arose from
the need
to improve
low
retention and
achievement
rates
which will
in
part
attribute
to the
colleges'
success in
widening access to learners with
diverse
learning needs.
1.
Projects
will generate staff motivation,
ownership and enthusiasm.
2.
Colleges
might
develop ways
of embedding
focused projects
and initiatives into
existing
systems.
3.
For the
students, nothing could be more valuable than advice from
experienced industry
personnel
themselves,
which they
can get
through
this initiative.
4.

many
more……
