Well Done!

The article gave an insight as to How IIT is into innovation with limited resources . With enthusiasm
and efforts put in by the best brains of our country,India would surely emerge from its current status of "back office outsourcer to a front office developer for products"as said by Mr.Rakesh Mathur.
We wish this Initiative by IIT Bombay is noticed widely by Indian Companies and a bright future ahead.

hi..

This is something thats absolutely good. But then there are lot more engineers lying around in colleges around india who are not really getting good oppurtunities. the reason. We have institutes like Chaitanya.. Ramaih, Narayana who bring out IIT JEE rankers who are simply bombarded with workload of information who have the ability to digest. Noone really knows if they really are talented and have the ability to think out of the box. the people who are the real reason for the shining of the IITs and IIMs have not come from such institutes.. they have come up hard way. the same way our freedom fighters have won our country freedom. I being an engineer dont believe that the next generation of the WHO's WHO will contain people from IITs. the IIT engineers who are coming out nowadays do not have the capability to be soo great.

SINE
by Pravin on May 05, 2006 12:27 PM

SINE is good initiative but is limited by the fact that one who is planning to get help of SINE should be :
* Faculty members (current and in the recent past),
* Students and alumni,
* IITB's R&D partners (sponsors of R&D and consultancy projects),
* IITB's partner universities (having R&D collaborations in place), and
* Government agencies associated with IITB's research and innovations.

..So for anyone who doesn't fit into these criterias, will not get benefited from SINE... I seriously feel that this kind of limitation should be removed...
