History and Vision

Engineering colleges all over the world are expected to provide engineering education whose outcome produces graduates with some key attributes. The National Board of Education (NBA) in India requires the following:

1) A Knowledge base for engineering

2) Problem analysis

3) Investigation

4) Design

5) Use of engineering tools

6) Individual and teamwork

7) Communication skills

8) Professionalism

9) Impact of engineering on society and the environment

10) Ethics and equity

11) Economics and project management

12) Life-long learning.

These are the same skills required by industry employers. These skills will also provide a foundation for entrepreneurship and innovation and help the engineering graduates to become leaders and socially responsible human beings.

The objectives of all IUCEE Student Programs are to assist the students in developing these attributes and skills. In particular, attributes 6 to 12 in the above are not covered meaningfully in the curriculum of most traditional engineering colleges. Our belief is that students develop these skills only by having project-based experiences.
