Entrepreneurship Development

Entrepreneurship Development Cell

In a world where ideas drive economies, it is no wonder that innovation and entrepreneurship are often seen as inseparable things. The governments around the world are starting to realize that in order to sustain progress and improve a country’s economy, the people have to be encouraged and trained to think out-of-the-box and be constantly developing innovative products and services. In order to train the students think laterally, the Institution has inaugurated Entrepreneurship Development Cell.  It is not only for the benefit of our students but also for the local community, with the purpose of inculcating the spirit of ‘Entrepreneurship’ in youth and promoting micro enterprises for the most Educationally, Economically and Industrially backward rural region.
