Permission for Corporates to Run Technical Insitutions (or) Corpotares to Run Engineering College

As so far only trusts and cooperative societies were allowed to run technical institutes. But now the time has 

changed where corporates also can run the technical institutions.

The following News was from the Indian express buzz.

In order to facilitate the spread of technical education to all under represented areas, the Centre has decided to allow public-private partnership (PPP) and build-operate-transfer (BOT) model to set up engineering colleges and other technical institutions.Human Resource Development Minister Kapil Sibal on Thursday announced the revised norms for the approval process for 2011-2012 of institutes that are regulated by All Indian Council for Technical Education (AICTE).

The Corporate needs space for an an engineering college in rural India would need 10 acres of land, just 2.5 acres of land would be needed in urban areas.

Till now, tuition fee waiver scheme, operated by the AICTE, allowed providing up to 10 percent supernumerary seats that are given to students of economically backward category. It was the discretion on the part of the institution to apply for such a scheme. Now, these seats are made mandatory for every institute up to 5 percent,” Sibal said. The minister said, “These measures are aimed at easing pressure on the education sector and providing relief to the students in matters of admission. 

  

Many changes have come with the new rules. We can expect TCS, CTS, Infosys will start the Engineering colleges soon. As Polaris has started the Financial College already, hope they will also find the way to start the Engineering  college.

May this new year brings some change in the Education.

Wish you all a happy new year.

Anna University Compiles to do the Best pracitces in Engineering colleges

The Following News has been taken from The Times Of India News.

The Anna University of Technology ( AUT Chennai) has embarked on a proposal to compile a list of best practices adopted or implemented in its affiliated self-financing engineering colleges with an eye on replicating it in other institutions.

Around 150 self-financing engineering colleges located in and around Chennai, Tiruvallur, Kancheepuram, Villupuram, Tiruvannamalai and Vellore districts are affiliated to the university.

The university has now requested affiliated colleges to send in their best/unique practices on difference activities. For example, one of the affiliated colleges ensures that none of its students or staff wastes food which the university believes is an excellent practice for anybody to emulate. Likewise, a few institutions are also practising innovative energy saving methods on their respective campuses.

"Hence, all the principals are requested to inform the university about such practices existing in their colleges so that the same can be informed to other colleges for adoption," the university has said in a communication.

To begin with the university has requested all principals of private engineering colleges affiliated to it to impart it as a practice to their students as well as staff that they do not waste food items within and outside the campuses.

The selected best practices will also be published in the university website with due acknowledgement to the colleges.

The C Development Cycle

Hi.. In this i am going to tell you about the C Development life cycle. I got this idea from the C for Dummies book.

The C Development Cycle

Here is how you create a C program in seven steps — in what’s known as the
development cycle:
1. Come up with an idea for a program.
2. Use an editor to write the source code.
3. Compile the source code and link the program by using the C compiler.
4. Weep bitterly over errors (optional).
5. Run the program and test it.
6. Pull out hair over bugs (optional).
7. Start over (required).
No need to memorize this list. It’s like the instructions on a shampoo bottle,
though you don’t have to be naked and wet to program a computer. Eventually,
just like shampooing, you start following these steps without thinking about it.
No need to memorize anything.

The C development cycle is not an exercise device. In fact, programming does more to make your butt fit more snugly into your chair than anything.
 Step 1 is the hardest. The rest fall naturally into place.
 Step 2 consists of two steps: compiling and linking.
