Industry Interaction Cell

Overview

An active Industry Interaction Cell (IIC) has been functioning in the College. The function of the Cell is to promote closer interaction between the academic field and the professional field. The purpose of the cell is to find out the gap between the need of the industry and the end product of the institute. Industrial exposure of Faculty is very much helpful to guide students about the latest industrial practices. Industries are able to know recent developments and inventions in their fields and implement projects for the technologically driven economy.
