18. Institutional development Through High-Performing Faculty Teams Communicate letters of invitation received from IDAs, Various Ministries, and Private Companies to the departments Facilitate the departments to bid for the projects Assist in preparing technical proposals Assist in assessing the financial proposals Train the faculty teams in careful negotiation Provide needed resources and seed funds

19. planned Industrial Exposure Creating effective links with state industries in the industrial corridors and hubs Offering executive development projects Permitting to undergo internships in “ Analysis- Design-Prototype Development- Testing-Improving- Mass Production- Marketing-Maintenance- Scrapping- Planning Innovative products” Expose the students to industries Guide the graduate students to undertake dissertations based on the industrial problems Grant project grants to the graduate students

20. Industry-specific Programs Undertake industry-specific graduate programs Offer dual/sandwich programs Offer credits for undergoing industrial training Offer electives in consultation with companies Permit planning of interdisciplinary postgraduate programs Conduct cooperative courses Collaborate with local/state/regional companies Establish satellite institutes in the industrial corridors

21. Facilitating faculty competencies Permit the faculty teams to undertake industry-sponsored projects Offer needed finishing school programs to the graduates Consult the alumni on the development of disruptive technology Conduct tracer studies Get the feedback from the employers Plan workshops on the current technologies Establish a consultancy centre Scaffold the high-performing faculty teams
