Abstract
Role of industry is very much essential to prepare the students for employment. Industries can collaborate in many ways with institutions to enhance the skills of the students. They can participate in curriculum design, development and delivery. They can offer industry specific core/elective courses. They can conduct student workshops, contests and conferences. They can also offer industry specific international certifications. In this paper, as a case study we have considered our own institute and analysed in detail about how our association with industries have enhanced skills and employability of our students. The objective of this study is to showcase that by involving industries in curriculum design, we can see developments in all the frontiers of academics. We have shown the developments in the areas of research publications, industry relevant courses/electives, industry relevant workshops/faculty development programs, improvements in research and consultancy and student placements.
