National Institute of Technology - Trichy (NIT-T) has selected 25 aspiring entrepreneurs from in and around the city for a special six-week training programme which began on the campus on October 15. The programme is spurred by the realisation that there is a lack of technology-based entrepreneurial ventures in Trichy.
The ‘Technology-Based Entrepreneurship Development Programme (TEDP)’ will go on till November 24. The organisers told TOI that three domains – electronics, communication and information technology – would be covered during the course of the six weeks. Specific training would be provided to enable them to come up with a start-up based in Trichy.
Experts said that though Trichy had a considerable number of people with good entrepreneurial skills, they often fell short and failed to make a mark in their business as they didn't have enough knowledge to connect their ventures efficiently with technology. “People here have the knack for business, but they only haven’t mastered technology yet. In fact, a handful of candidates who we’ve chosen are those who failed in their first business ventures as they couldn’t understand and implement technology in their respective businesses,” N Sivakumaran, TEDP programme coordinator and a faculty member at NIT-T, told TOI.
The organisers said that a particular methodology would be followed to ensure that a product chosen by the aspiring entrepreneur for a prospective venture would be feasible to be carried out in Trichy. A total of 45 candidates had applied for the programme, out of which 25 were selected. Among the chosen candidates, a majority were engineering graduates, while a few were from science and diploma backgrounds.
Another programme coordinator, G Lakshmi Narayanan, said that TEDP would cover various aspects of entrepreneurship, project report preparation, marketing and raw material purchase and management skills. The candidates would be taken for industrial visits and taught about the ways to approach banks for funding etc.
TEDP is organised by Centre for Entrepreneurship Development and Incubation (CEDI) at NIT-T in association with Entrepreneurship Development Institute of India (EDII) under the Department of Science and Technology-National Implementing and Monitoring Agency for Training (DST-NIMAT) Project 2018-19.

Factflle Festember was started at NIT-Trichy as an Intra-college festival In 1974. In 1975, the festival was made open to students from other colleges. Now, the festival sees participants from all over the country. Nearly 63 events are part of Festember, which will conclude on Sunday evening.
R CHANDRASEKARAN, executive vice-chairman of Cognizant, said the craze for working on-site has dwindled slowly as people find it much comfortable working in India. He said there are equal opportunities within the country which can be explored.
He was speaking to Express on the sidelines of Festember, a three-day-long inter-college festival of the National Institute of Technology Trichy, which he inaugurated on Thursday.
He pointed out that the middle-aged people are finding it much comfortable in working within India, adding that only freshen were going on-site and that they would be retreating in three to four years. Chandrasekaran, an alumnus of NIT-T, said the students could still choose to work in IT-related fields, but they needed to hone their skills before they leave college. "The situation in information technology that was there a decade ago is not now. The students should hone their skills, only then could they excel in the IT field. There won't be any downward curve in the field of information technology if people update them-selves timely. Even with automation, the momentum for creative jobs will never cease to exist," he felt.
Chandrasekaran recalled his fond memories with his alma mater and told students to shape themselves making use of events like Festember. "When you leave the institute, you are a working professional. When you are here, there are a plethora of opportunities to build a strong foundation of your soft skills that will help you in life." He recalled that eminent persons like Defence Minister Nirmala Seetharaman attended Festember.

Fabricate 500 electric boards for homes of affected people
Responding to a call from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Kerala Section, students of National Institute of Technology - Tiruchi fabricated 500 electric boards for distribution to worst affected people in the Kerala floods.
The faculty, students and alumni got their acts together for fabrication of the temporary electric distribution boards that will pave way for restoration of power to houses devastated by the floods.
The IEEE Kerala Section had launched a massive drive for Electricity Reconnection under the Jala Jyothi Programme, to restore power using temporary distribution boards. The project includes design, mass production and installation of a low-cost electric distribution board as a minimum power outlet.
In the first phase of rehabilitation, one of the major problems identified was the difficulties in restoring power supply.
Hundreds of houses that were completely inundated would have to be rewired on a war footing.
The IEEE Kerala section’s indigenous design of temporary distribution boards was approved by the State Electricity Board.
Director of NIT Tiruchi Mini Shaji Thomas formed a team of faculty, staff, students and alumni to accomplish the task of fabrication based on the approved design.
The students utilised the facilities at Sajas Electricals, founded by Jayaram Sadasivam, an alumnus, for making the boards with their contribution of Rs. 5.32 lakh. The Alumni Association of NIT-T has assured to pitch in with an additional Rs. 2 lakh for the purpose.
The student volunteers went about assembling the components under the coordination of the IEEE Indian Office Director Harish Mysore, Amarnath Raja of the Kerala Section, and Bakthavatsalam, Professor, NIT-T
Prof. Mini Shaji Thomas handed over the first fabricated board to the IEEE Kerala Section Chair Sameer during the IEEE Women in Engineering International Leadership Summit last Friday.
The NIT-T had separately mobilised Rs. 10,09,514 for the Kerala flood victims. The amount was contributed to the Chief Minister’s Distress Relief Fund. The NIT-T Director handed over a cheque for the amount to District Collector of Ernakulam M.Y. Safirullah.

The 14th convocation of the National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli was held in a colourful way with the students in their traditional attire donning stoles around the neck. Speaking on the occasion, Dr Anil Sahasrabudhe, Chairman, All India Council of Technical Education stressed the need for paradigm shifts in the technical education. He brought out the need for setting up an industry institute interaction cell, an industrial advisory committee for each department to help in curriculum revision, evolving vision, mission, goals and creating a road map for the department, internship, sabbaticals, adjunct faculty, setting up of labs with industry support, soft skills training, scholarships for deserving students, engaging in consultancy etc. He also brought out the need for innovation and opening up of avenues available including experiential learning for students, participation in Unnat Bharat Abhiyan, conducting Research Academies and Innovation workshops. Dr Sahasrabudhe also spoke about the need for networking and the importance of
MOUs with IITs, international universities for faculty and student exchange. He elucidated the significance of Inviting faculty from abroad for a semester to offer state of the art courses. The AICTE chairman spoke at length the need for healthy interaction with the Alumni. In the changed scenario, it is necessary to have all the Institute facilities round the clock. Dr Sahasrabudhe highlighted the importance of promoting the overall development of the students and the relevance of promotion of student activities such as sports, music, dance, drama, painting, photography, aeromodelling, automotive, astronomy, history, philosophy etc. so that there is an activity of interest for every student. This will help in all rounded development and create interest in other academic pursuits as well.
Speaking about the transformation required, he said that interdisciplinary research is very important. With digital platforms such as MOOCs, SWAYAM and the over 1500 courses available, students of this age can break the class room barrier to learn from various sources. It is in this context that AICTE’s student induction program is vital to creating strong communication and bondage between students and faculty. The technology is changing rapidly. What is taught in colleges becomes irrelevant by the time one graduates. The interdependence of one discipline of engineering with the other is more relevant today than at any other time. Hence interdisciplinary research is gaining importance. There is a space for even biology in the engineering curriculum. It is often said that students are to be prepared for solving problems which are not even known today using technologies yet to be invented. Dr Sahasrabudhe also spoke at length about the Governments digital initiatives such as the national digital library, national academic depository, e-shodh Sindhu, digital transactions, a global initiative of academic networks, HEFA funding.
Addressing the new graduates, Dr Sahasrabudhe spoke at length about learning as a lifelong process. He advised them that it is the patience, persistence and perseverance, leading to perfection, which plays a decisive role in the success and invited them to join the national mainstream and make India a world super power.
Speaking on occasion, the Director Dr Mini Shaji Thomas brought out the achievements of the Institute in the last academic year. The 190 crores funded Siemens centre of excellence in Manufacturing was set-up this year and will pave the way for interdisciplinary research. Dr Thomas also spoke about the faculty recruitment that had taken place after a span of ten years and added that 40 new faculty members across various departments from top Institutes had joined the ranks. She also read the faculty and student achievers of last year. 10 senior administrative officers recruited this year have injected new blood
into the office administration. NITT office is getting fully automated, and soon, with the
support of all stakeholders, a paperless office will be in place.She also said that the Institute has embarked on a greening initiative of the campus and its neighborhood,
buoyed by the Green Campus award from the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board. 2000 saplings in the last few months and will add another 10000 in the coming months.
Five alumni were awarded the Distinguished Alumnus Award in the field of Excellence in Corporate / Industry during the Convocation.
