Speaking about Industry-Academia Connect, he said, there is a lot more to be done.  We are just taking baby steps in developing a strong connection. That is because of the lack of clear policy in strengthening ties between them.

The program is uniquely designed to allow students to do projects every alternate term for a total of 6 terms. This offers an opportunity to do real-life and near-real-life projects so the students can practice the concepts/tools learned in the earlier term.

During the program students will be treated as employees working in a temporary organization so that they are industry-ready by the time of completion of the Programme, said Dr V. Vishnu Vandana, Head of the Department, School of Management, Anurag University.
