SKILL ENHANCEMENT & PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF STUDENTS

ABESEC is committed to produce world-class skilled and dedicated technical and managerial human resources, with embedded traditional Indian values and having a positive outlook. No stone is left unturned to provide quality education and efforts are made for a paid internship, pre-placement offers, technical training, industrial consultancy, and quality placements.

Industry Connect Program is a unique initiative of the institute that takes learning beyond academic boundaries into the domain of the industrial world, in a step-by-step manner. In fact, we wish the students should experience industry in the institutional premises, the industry connect program is a meticulously designed approach towards this end. The various steps involved in the process are depicted below:

Self-Identification & Mentoring: In the first year of graduation, all the students take the same curriculum as per the AKTU, the affiliating university guidelines irrespective of the branch, and hence students identify their specific interest in technology areas and continuously keep evolving themselves. Their faculty mentors help them in this self-realization, by which students are passionately self-driven towards achieving excellence, not only in academics but also in the engineering world unveiling new dimensions of knowledge on levels of application and research.

In the past few years, student teams have participated in various national and international competitions. This pursuit has yielded good results like securing 11 global rank in UAV Challenge – Medical Express and successive good results in Electric Solar Vehicle Challenge and Effi-Cycle.

Optimized Research-Based Industrial Technical Solution (ORBITS):

ORBITS is an attempt towards creating optimized technical solutions for industry and at the same time answering the question – How do we get engineers industry ready? We get various consultancy/ Industrial projects through ORBITS on which students are also engaged in collaborative learning. In this capacity, the center has designed and delivered industry-grade projects for the likes of Intex Ltd, LGF Sysmac, and many more.

Centre of Excellence and Skill Training:

The beginning of globalization has opened the Indian economy to the outside world. The competition among industries has become stiff; therefore, it is urgently needed to prepare engineering students for jobs in multinational companies, by exposing them to newer technologies and engineering methodologies. CoEs are there to create a healthy environment by engaging Industry and Academia resources combined in skill-building programs. A gap between training and placement is usually observed in academics and to combat this gap, skill-building programs are designed with industries. This approach has ensured better interaction between industry and academia, enhancing relevant skills and innovative thinking amongst the students.

These CoEs have been working on Industry-Institute Interaction and preparing manpower of world -class in the field of science and technology by inculcating various skills required by the industry. Though the availability of manpower is abundant in India, well-equipped manpower with employability skills is the real need of the hour. There is a need to create avenues for close academia and industry interaction through all the phases of technology development, starting from conceptualizing to commercialization.

Various innovation centers in association with leading industries of repute like National Instruments, SMC Corporation, Texas Instruments, Cisco Networking Academy, and various other centers of excellence have been set up for training and skill-building purpose.

Centre of Career Planning and Development (CCPD):

• CCPD always acts as a primary driver for students’ overall career development through career counseling/guidance and the best possible support in terms of placement in renowned companies.
• More than 300 companies visit ABESEC campus every year. Prominent recruiters are TCS, Microsoft, Capgemini, IBM, Sopra Steria, Yamaha Motors, British Telecom, Edge Telecom, Dhampur Sugar, DCM Shriram, NTT Data, Info-gain, Newgen, Amazon, NIIT Tech., Ashok Leyland, OPPO Mobiles, Gray Orange, etc.
• ABESEC organizes pool campus recruitment process towards commitment for our social responsibilities.
• CCPD also organizes stipend-based internships and career counseling sessions regularly with the help of in-house trainers as well as with the help of external agencies/professionals.
• Some well-known companies like DXC Technology, Sapient Global Markets, Sapient Razorfish, Adobe, Ashok Leyland, etc. have already recruited our students with a maximum stipend of up to Rs. 25,000 P.M.
• Students are encouraged to learn at least one foreign language (French, German, and Japanese) through our tie-ups since lots of multinational companies hire graduates who understand their culture, and students from ABESEC get an edge over other students in the competition.

Continuing Education: At ABES Engineering College, we have an International Outreach Office (IOO) that provides students with multidimensional support for international career planning. The cell actively provides insights, guidance, and counseling to the interested students and connects them to ABESEC alumni abroad.

INurture Incubation Foundation: Since the time belongs to Entrepreneurs, we encourage students to pursue their entrepreneurial inclination through our highly successful ABESEC Entrepreneurship Development Cell (EDC) initiative. In the year 2014 the EDC was upgraded into Business Incubator (ABESEC Start-ups Lab) and in the year 2019 separate legal entity has formed under section 8 of Companies Act 2013 i.e. INurture Incubation Foundation. It is an initiative to expedite the culture of entrepreneurship amongst the students and faculty members of ABESEC through various programs and activities.

A dedicated state-of-art space of around 16000 sq. ft. area with incubation facilities like co-working space, high-end internet connection, conference/meeting room, workshop, computer lab, etc. The experienced and knowledgeable mentors’ pool connected with the incubation center provides support to students in their entrepreneurial journey.

Our start-ups Spider Bean, Pulsifyer, ClinchHub, Fabricage Dynamics, InternMenia, Fond Events, Edufirm, Happypot Garden Private Limited, The Volt, and Nimbleag Private Limited are the few who nurtured by INIF and are doing well in the open environment.
