Preamble:
In the post WTO regime. Both
industries and institute are striving hard to
increase their competitiveness with many hard to
increase their competitiveness with many
objectives in common. Despite this, it is
surprising to see both the systems exhibiting a
very little dependence on each other except
between the large scale industries and the
institute of Higher Technical Education like
IISc. IITs etc. The interaction between the
majorities of medium/small-scale industries and
the Engineering college/polytechnics is
virtually non- existent resulting in the delay
of exploitation of our national resources to the
fullest extent. The major role of the institutes
in the industrial sector is to produce quality
engineers with fundamental knowledge and the
necessary skills for the application of acquired
knowledge to real situations to promote the
countries economy. In this direction, the
institutes over the decades have gathered
abundant experience and established
massive
technical work force of the country which is
manifested through the recent success witnessed
in IT segment.
Today, it is
globally acclaimed that scientific and
technological capability of Human Resource is
the major source of strength in nation building.
Consequently, the success of any industry
depends very much on the quality of the people
who work for them. Particularly, in the context
of medium/ small-scale industries, the needs are
primarily oriented towards problem solving, with
the support required in the areas of Design,
Process improvement and plant and machinery
performance etc., which can be fulfilled by the
existing huge network of technical industries
across the country. These institutes can be also
intervene in solving specific industry related
problems, carry out minor Technological
Innovations/ Modifications aimed at Technology
Absorption/Implementation etc, and organize
Continuing education program for industry
personnel. Industries in turn can contribute to
academia in orienting its curriculum to produce
Graduate Engineers/ Technicians suitable for
their work places and support the basic research
for creation of new knowledge. In order to
achieve these objectives, what is needed at
present is a support system ( industry
Institute Partnership Cell) to ensure a
focused involvement of both academia and
industry in developing a symbiotic
relationship, keeping in view the vision for
the future.

The Basaveshwar
Engineering College has setup an industry
institute partnership Cell (BEC-IIPC) supported by
All India Council
for Technical Education (AICTE) to promote the
interaction between industries and the institute.
This institute with more than four decades of
expertise in imparting engineering education, has
established many state of the art laboratories,
testing equipment, library and information center,
internet facility etc. Recently, World Bank took
cognizance of this institute and recognized it as
a ''Lead institute'' under Technical Education
Quality Improvement Program (TEQIP) for further
excellence. Strength of this institute lies in its
highly qualities and committed faculty members,
which is counted as one amongst the few best
institutes in the state. Faculty members are
actively involved in research activities cal
University. Belgaum and various research projects
are undertaken in these departments are supported
by DST, CSIR, DRDO, AICTE etc. With this back
ground, the institute feels competent in
rendering R & D. Consultancy services and other
technical support in the different areas to
industries. |
