Abstract

The paper is to discuss about the implications of industry-academia interaction used for effective learning process and skill development in students. Here we share the experience of handling of an event on analog circuit maker contest, designed and developed by Texas Instruments industry, Bangalore and conducted and evaluated by a team of faculty in our academic institution. Here we emphasize on the benefits gained by students and faculty by undergoing the activity. The statistics regarding the level of performance and involvement of students and staff are discussed along with their feedback, which proves that Industry-Institute interaction as a very relevant process in an engineering institute.
