PROACTIVE ACADEMIA-INDUSTRY INTERFACE

Integrated Circuit (IC) design is a crucial Engineering field, where one has to learn the nitty-gritty involved in designing chips for complex applications. Cadence has its largest market share in design of state of the art EDA tools. Chip design in India has also moved into the big league with multinationals, design services companies, product companies and start-ups in the country growing by the day. Chitkara University has invested in procuring the necessary industry standard tools which enables innovators to design a full-fledged integrated circuit chip right from inception of an idea to layout to customize for the full scale design. Many microelectronic circuits design courses have been embedded into the course curriculum for Electronics and Communication Engineering students.

ARM is the world’s leading semiconductor intellectual property (IP) supplier. The technology designed by ARM is at the heart of many of the digital electronic products sold. ARM Technologies has taken an initiative in establishing a Microcontroller laboratory by donating state of the art mbed kits. This enables students to explore their potential and use the latest technologies to build the applications, which can compete with the best in the world.

NXP semiconductors lab has been established by a 4 billion dollar Multi National company with its presence in 25 different countries of the world.

Cisco Networking Academy program is an e-learning program that delivers Web-based educational content, online testing, student performance tracking, instructor training and support, as well as hands-on labs. The Networking Academy program combines lectures and online learning with hands-on laboratory exercises in which students apply what they learn in class while working on actual networks. Chitkara University seeks to play a major role to provide individuals the knowledge, and teach problem-solving abilities and critical thinking skills they need to pursue a career in ICT industry in the 21st century workplace. Cisco programs prepare students for industry-recognized certification exams such as the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA), Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP), and NetPlus+.

Infosys Campus Connect is an industry-academia partnership initiative taken by Infosys to assist the budding engineers improve their employability skills and make them industry ready. Chitkara has partnered with Infosys for this program to increase competitiveness and to enhance the pool of highly capable talent for growth requirements in IT space. The courseware comprises of the IP and experience of Infosys in training thousands of entry-level engineers from diverse backgrounds and disciplines so that they perform their best in delivering world-class projects to global customers. Chitkara University has integrated the foundation progam in the curriculum for all engineering programs which covers essential generic topics like –

Texas is the company of the world, which boasts of the design of first Integrated Circuit sometime in late 60s. For more than 80 years, Texas Instruments has used increasingly complex signal-processing technology–with advances ranging from the incremental to the revolutionary–to literally and repeatedly change the world. TI has sponsored a full fledged laboratory with grant of beageboard kits, which enables students to fly their imagination and create their own electronics applications.

nVIDIA is a giant company in the design of world class Computers Graphics cards. Founded in 1993, nVidia has continuously reinvented itself to delight users and shape the industry. Of late, they have harnessed the parallel computing capabilities of the GPU to advance high-performance computing and this move from nVidia into mobile domain has put them at the center of one of the industry’s fastest-growing segments. Chitkara University has been granted the status of CUDA Teaching Center (CTC) owing to a consistent performance in terms of organisation of large number of workshops on Parallel Programming and also offering courses on most advanced graphics supporting language CUDA.
