The conference aims to open a window of opportunity for an i
ntellectual dialog between engineering educators\, researchers\, and pract
itioners to change the paradigm of engineering education - how to cultivat
e the entrepreneurial mindset in the next generation engineers. This is th
e first of its kind conferences being held in this part of India.
\n
The 21st century is ushering in a new era of product development\, o
ne that calls for engineers to be entrepreneurs in developing innovative p
roducts. In this era\, innovations will occur at a faster rate than ever b
efore\, and will be the handiwork of technical entrepreneurs. To be compet
itive\, the next generation engineers should be trained in developing inno
vative products in an entrepreneurial environment. This requires a fundame
ntal shift in the current teaching paradigms. To this end\, the conference
provides a forum for discussing teaching innovations including the develo
pment of entrepreneurial mindset\, pedagogies\, case studies\, appropriate
use of technology and assessment.
\n Addressing this emerging
need for next generation education\, SR Engineering College has taken the
initiative in organizing an International Conference on Next Generation Ed
ucation for Entrepreneurial Engineers
