Panel Discussion

Industry-Oriented Curriculum Reforms
Engineering students lack digital fluency, problem-solving agility, and communication skills. This panel will explore how live projects, modular micro-credentials, and industry designed curricula can transform engineering education. These reforms will help engineering institutions stay relevant.
Inter-disciplinary and Project-Based Learning
Climate change, smart cities, and health innovation demand cross-disciplinary engineers. This panel will explore how interdisciplinary learning can develop creative problem solvers and collaborative innovators. These skills are critical for real-world impact.
Innovation and Product Development Startups
Millions lack clean water and affordable healthcare. Hardware-led startups aligned with UN goals can close these gaps. This panel will explore how engineers can fuse purpose and profit through sustainable, high-impact innovation.
Sustainability and Green Engineering
India’s Green Hydrogen and Solar Missions are billion-dollar opportunities, not just policy. This panel will explore how to embed clean energy, sustainability, and carbon tech into engineering curricula for a green economy.
Make in India
India has the talent to build for the world, but an outdated curriculum holds it back. This panel explores how Aatmanirbhar Bharat can drive entrepreneurial engineering for a self-reliant, export-ready manufacturing ecosystem.
AI and Machine Learning
AI is reshaping the world, but engineering education is lagging. This panel will examine how to embed AI across core disciplines and confront the ethical challenges of algorithm-driven systems.
Invited Talks
We will host 4 insightful Invited Talks over 2 Days of the Symposium.
