Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU) Vice-Chancellor Vidyashankar S. on Saturday said future jobs will require entirely different knowledge and skill sets. Future jobs will also need more creativity, cognitive ability, critical thinking, passion, and compassion, he said.
VTU has left no stone unturned to make its students adaptable to these technological advances. It has changed its curriculum accordingly from time to time to keep pace with advancement in Science and Technology, he added.
Speaking as the chief guest at the 13th graduation day of National Institute of Engineering (NIE) here, he said VTU has revamped the old conventional curriculum and introduced Choice Based Credit System besides introducing Minor and Honors Degree in its undergraduate programmes and integrated degree programmes, with multiple entry and exit schemes. It has introduced stream-wise basic subjects for the B.E programme from first year itself.
