remark as after the overwhelming response from the students last year, ITM
College of Engineering, has gone an extra mile to adopt four more villages in
Nagpur district. The institute has decided to adopt villages located around the
Kamptee campus for five years to provide technical assistance, which will help
for development of villages.
The students will implement
several projects with an eye to upgrade the life of under privileged people of
the village. The students will put to practice the knowledge and skills
acquired from several projects they have done under the guidance of expert
faculties. Students and faculty will conduct various activities and projects
like water testing, sewerage system, sewage treatment plant, solar energy,
solid waste management, reducing indoor air pollution etc. The projects will be
supervised by experts in the field. The four additional villages adopted apart
from Ghorpad are Ajani, Shirpur, Gadha and Pawangaon. Sarpanch of village Ajani
Ms. Malatai Ingole was present for TechnoVision 2016. She was felicitated by
the Guests.
At ITM, projects are allocated to
students from second year unlike the normal practice of submitting a project on
4th year. Last year, students of ITM have done brilliant work for
water treatment plant design and operation, solar energy project, increase of
coefficient of performance of refrigerator/AC on the campus. These projects
will be now extended to the adopted villages.
While commenting on the whole
initiative, Dr. Milind Kulkarni, Group Director ITM Groups of Institution, Engineering
said, “It was the vision of our Chairman Dr. P. V. Ramana to integrate Project
based learning in Engineering Education. He supported many projects in the
campus under this scheme. He now wants to extend these projects to surrounding
villages so that they get much needed technical support. We have already
adopted the village Ghorpad.
