Coimbatore: Sri Krishna College of Technology (SKCT) conducted the Professional Skill Development Program for first year B.E./B.Tech students in its Kovaipudur campus in Coimbatore.
T P Senthil Kumar, Co-Founder, Neo Elon (iamneo.ai) who was the Chief Guest at the event, addressed the students on how exposure at different levels was important for human development.
"The idea of fusing industrial courses with the regular academic curriculum and these courses bridge the gap between the theoretical and practical knowledge which the industry demands from the students. Become problem solvers and product developers," reiterated the Chief Guest.
He also emphasized the importance of practical exposure and outcome-based education. "The idea of an education methodology in which emphasis is placed on a clearly-articulated idea of what students are expected to know and able to do when they leave the college system is paramount. Learn the concepts in depth and develop a passion toward engineering. Work soulfully and do justice to your parents, mentors and yourselves," advised T P Senthil Kumar.
The team members of iamneo.ai interacted with the students and clarified their queries.
