Tata Technologies, provider of engineering services and manufacturing enterprise IT, has launched ‘Ready Engineer’, a corporate sustainability initiative for better engineering education, at the National Institute of Technology (NIT), Jamshedpur. Initially, a batch of 90 students from NIT Jamshedpur will undergo this programme.
The programme will identify meritorious 3rd- and 4th-year engineering students from colleges across India, who will be a part of the unique 40-hour classroom-based training process.
To be led by experts, Tata Technologies’ proprietary engineering training platform will also provide students with access to the largest library of online training and tutorials during the course of the programme.
In a statement, Anubhav Kapoor, General Counsel, Tata Technologies said, “While India produces a few lakh qualified engineers annually, industry routinely faces an acute shortage of engineers who are employable or industry-ready to immediately deliver on engineering services projects after graduating out of colleges.”
The Tata Technologies’ Corporate Sustainability Programme has identified technical education as a core agenda.
Professor Rambabu Kodali, Director NIT, Jamshedpur, said, “NIT Jamshedpur has always been a breeding ground for some of the best engineering minds and this commendable corporate sustainability initiative will help provide better technical education for budding engineers in a very suitable manner.”
