The Indian Institute of Technology, Hyderabad (IIT-H), has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with nine NITs across the country for a faculty-students’ exchange programme.
The collaboration is to usher the talented youth from NITs to develop an inclination towards Innovation and Invention in Technology for Humanity (IITH), said IIT-H sources.
While elaborating on his strategy behind this alliance, IIT-H director B.S. Murty said, “IIT-H is one of the fastest evolving academic institutes with a strong focus on research, innovation and entrepreneurship. We want innovation to be a magic wand to let our dynamic youth be job-providers instead of job-seekers. It is also important to nurture research interest among UG students not only to be Atma Nirbhar but also to be global leaders in innovation and technology development.“
