Colleges should become part of the All India Council for Technical Education to benefit from its technical expertise, said its chairman T.G. Sitharam.
At a workshop for stakeholders in the city on Thursday, Mr. Sitharam said the institutions would benefit multi-fold, including ensuring students internship, scholarship and standardised world-class curriculum, he explained. The workshop was held to explain why AICTE mandated that all colleges offering BBA and BCA programmes should register with it.
Mr. Sitharam explained that the Council was only bringing under its purview BBA and BCA courses as it already oversees MCA and MBA programmes.
