Industry involvement in academia in India is almost nil. Industry has neither any knowledge of academic nor has any plans to even get to know what is happening out there except making a constant demand that the students coming out must be readily employable. What is the contribution they make to make the students employable is anybody’s guess. Academic institutions are competing among themselves now. This should change. Industry must compete to grab the attention of educational institutions.
Industry Institutional interaction must happen at different levels. A. At faculty level, B. at student level. Enough has been said on these.
At SMOT, we have allocated 25% of the courses to be handled by professionals from industry and we pay them sumptuously. Get them to teach, everything else will fall in place – projects, placements, curriculum update, professional approach and so on.
