Textile industry participation in engineering education is the need of the hour in developing textile industry

Abstract

use new technology by creating infrastructure, goods, and services for only small percentage of the Engineers and professional are able to meet this expectation since there is wide gap between Industry and academy in India. Almost 90% need training and work exposure.Growth of nation is measured in terms of annual GDP. India has to go for large scale manufacturing in Engineering Industries. To support this India is promoting investment in infrastructure development, application of electronic, computer & IT in all sectors to promote Engineering Industries. Any new Technology application needs Trained Technical man power. Establishment of new Industries needs large pool of trained technical personnel's. Hence large no of educational Institutes are established with private sector participation. These educational institute need to associate with Industry for practical exposure to develop basic technical knowledge in students to work in different Technology and projects. Hence create an opportunity for their talent pool in the country by Industry -Institute linkage. Industry -Institute linkageTo bridge the gap between Industry and education it is proposed to seek cooperation in following area: To impart basic knowledge to the technical graduates to work in present technologyMethodology: To develop curriculum to impart basic practical knowledge during the course curriculum to work in different profession Viz , Research and Development / Production /Planning/ Design and Development /Maintenance/Marketing and servicing.Expected outcome; Students will know about their profession, opportunity in their profession and hence develop skills required for employment in these sectors. Development of the knowledge centers in campus to give practical exposure to present Science & Technology developments by formulating training program with industry to produce skilled technical personnel with core competency in their subject to match industry requirementMethodology: To impart practical knowledge to students by using the existing laboratory to develop skills required in application of the present Technology in the different Domain. Hence, Development of the knowledge centers in campus by Industry association for skill development programs to student to work in present core domain of the Industry.Expected results: Development of the Technical personnel's with core competency. Academy -industry collaboration for industry research and academic excellenceMethodology: Higher studies programs for innovative research: Higher studies in foreign universities collaboration. Foreign university internship, Students exchange program. Staff exchange program. Promotion of Innovative Industry research in developed country and Institutes of Higher standards in academic research in collaboration with Industry. Transfer of technology to industry by industry-institute collaborative educational training program.Methodology: Mentoring of the student's projects to develop Innovative Research /Product/Technology /Processes by association of Teachers with Ind...
