THE NEWSLETTER GUJARAT TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY July 2015


As we work towards making Gujarat Technological University a great institution, we may

learn from other good universities of the world.

Let us see the vision of a small non-Ivy-league US University, as available on its web-site1:

The university states that its (recent) ‘plan will provide uniquely global experiences,

which prepare students to lead in their local communities and around the world’:

The plan calls for the University to achieve global impact through four globally-

focused themes that will become the University’s balanced scorecard:

Global innovation through inclusive leadership A global student-centered experience A network of academic and operational excellence Strategic and sustainable development

The Vice Provost2 of the University said “We are looking to

the future in an action-oriented way. Now that the plan has

been endorsed by the Board of Trustees3, we are moving full-

speed ahead.”

GTU has prepared a vision for itself. It has developed policies,

which can help implement the vision. GTU has been working

to implement these policies. The University can become a

great university if progressively larger number of the officers

at the University and its Colleges, the Faculty Members and

the students work for it in collaboration with one another.

At the GTU offices and at each of its academic and administrative units all across the State, every member of GTU

family should ask herself/ himself whether she/ he is contributing to achieving excellence in her/ his field. The field

of working may be a workshop or a laboratory or a class-room or a college or a Sankul4 or the University itself. It is

only when all of the GTU’s components are working well that we shall be able to create a highly reputed university

in which we can all take pride and the graduates of which will be able to get excellent jobs.

es are becoming global. So manage-

ment students have to think about it.

Smaller companies cannot start import

-export without knowledge. We do

business blindly. This blindness is cre-

ated by us. Now it is high time to apply our education to

remove such blindness and for serving the nation and

serving the world.

Mr. Zafar Sareshwala, Chancellor – Maulana Azad Na-

tional Urdu University, Hyderabad told students that you

are in the age of opportunities & vantage position. Now

universities are becoming factories of un-employed

youth. Such shortcoming is due to casualness in our sys-

tem. We could not live only with the help of our past

glory. This is not an age of superficial world, it is an age

of excel. You have to become specialist in your field i.e.

one-upmanship. Casual approach will not work. He ex-

horted the students for work hard.

Mr. Jagat Shah, Foreign representative of Government of

Manitoba said that generally our academia and industry

linkage is very poor, but at GTU the linkage is strong. He

advised students to respect faculties and not to hesitate

in case of a failure. Ms. Bhagyesh Soneji, Chairperson of

Gujarat council of ASSOCHAM said to students that let

us explore life with passion and see the beauty of life

Feel Hindustan, let us be true Indian. You are a diamond

institutes as such provision has been given for MSME cluster.”

Dr. Anamik Shah, Vice chan-cellor of Gujarat Vidyapeeth, during his key note speech mentioned that “I appreciate the efforts of GTU to take a lead in the direction of fram-ing IPR policy for affiliated type of Universities. He men-

tioned that without appropriate IPR policy, stake holder of University and University itself has to suffer financially during technology transfer. He suggested framing dy-namic and flexible IPR policy so that depending upon case to case basis, implication of policy can be done”.

Dr. Anil Wali, Professor of IIT, New Delhi mentioned that “IPR policy should be inclusive and should include faculty member along with students as an applicant during pa-tent filing. This will minimize chances of immature lapse of provision patent without filing complete”.

Shri B. P. Singh, Deputy Controller of Patents, Patent Office at New Delhi mentioned that “GTU is playing real-ly a proactive role for IPR promotion in entire University. He suggested that GTU model should be followed by all other Technical Universities of the country. I welcome recommendation of Honb. Dr. Aggawal and would like to mentioned that Government is thinking in direction to promote IP awareness and IP culture in academic insti-tutes. CGPDTM has recently launched Kid’s Nook web pages to explain about different forms of IPR to school students. Government is also thinking about providing special provision to academic institutes.”

GTU & Glass Academy of India sets up

School of Glass Processing Technology

Ahmedabad: With the advent of green technology,

green building concept has become very popular. Green

building must minimize the demand of non-renewable

resources and maximize

the reuse, recycling and

utilization of renewable

resources. In India today

most of the buildings ex-

tensively use Glazing in

form of Facade Glazing or

in the form of large win-

dows. The installation and

Glass processing have

emerged as one of the im-

portant areas of employ-

ment in Gujarat. Gujarat is

facing acute shortage of Skill required for glass façade

fabrication and installation Technology.

In order to develop need based skilled manpower in the

emerging sector (glass façade, fenestration and glass

processing industry), the Glass Academy joined hands

with Gujarat Technological University to impart glass

façade & processing skills and such other skills to the

Diploma/ Degree students

of Civil & Mechanical Engi-

neering in the GTU premis-

es. These trained students

will be industry responsive

and readily employable in

the industry.

GTU is the only University in

India to commence the pro-

gram in Glass Processing

Technology at its Gandhina-

gar campus. On 14th March

2015, an orientation program has been organized for

creating awareness among the technocrats of Gujarat as

regards the state of art in fenestration façade and Glass

Processing Technology. Initially the training programme

is of 12 weeks at GTU Gandhinagar campus.

How to make females fit and healthy?

Ahmedabad: Women Health Development program has

organized at GTU Campus.

Main objective of Women Development Cell of Gujarat

Technological University is creating congenial and safe

working environment for all the female student, women

faculty and staff of the university and all affiliated colleg-

es. The WDC strives to create awareness and inculcate a

strong sense of values among the younger generation so

that they have a balanced view about the various gender

issues that they face in their day-to day lives.

They typically have little autonomy, living under the control of first their fa-thers, then their husbands, and finally their children. All of these factors exert a negative impact on the health status of Indian women. Looking towards this problem, women development cell of GTU has decided to organize this program on women health awareness and invited experts from various fields who can guide us participants on how to face major problems regarding health in their daily schedule. This program is chaired by Mrs.Aggrawal, Dr.Rajul Gajjar,

Dean GTU and Mrs. Usha Nilkanthan, Chairperson of Women Development Cell. They explained importance of women health and how to maintain balance between work and health.

logical University(GTU) said that GTU Innovation Sankuls have played a major role for colleges being in touch with the industries. Aim of the awards is to strengthen linkage between college and industry, linkage between college to college and linkage between students and research. The awards are for students & their groups who have done something to help the society. He expressed concern that engineering and technical education in India is not at par with developed countries. We have a long way to cover. Policy and protocols do not make university great, but classrooms and workshops can play important role in it. It is pursuit of excellence, which can make GTU proud of nation. GTU Innovation Council has set up 25 GTU Innovation Sankuls/Clusters, which are regional communities of GTU educational institutions and the in-dustries in the region. Swami Sarvasthanandji of Rajkot was the chief guest of the event. He said that a German University is impressed by the innovation work done at GTU. Don’t create people who seek jobs, but create people who will become job crea-tors. He advised students to make all round efforts for innovation. You can achieve anything. Through innovations, students can be helpful to society and to poor. Mr. Hirnmay Mahanta, Head of GIC informed the gathering about aim of the awards. He said that Pedagogical Inno-vation Awards (PIA) are being given to recognize unique efforts in setting up innovation culture, ecosystem, admin-istration, innovation process, innovation dissemination, innovative measures in IPR and associated efforts, industry-academic cooperation, entrepreneurship and other similar efforts. GTU Innovation Council has declared GIC i2i (Innovate to Impact) Award 2015 to recognise innovative projects of students across GTU affiliated colleges in Engi-neering, Polytechnic, Pharmacy, MCA, MBA and others. He said that speed, scale and sustainability are the need of the hour for innovation. All students want to be guided, not dictated. Every student is genius, but they lack a platform. Leadership, system and approach are required to im-prove technical education. Bold steps are needed. GTU is taking such bold steps under able guidance of Dr. Akshai Aggarwal, Vice Chancellor. One key aim of this mission is to develop inter-relationship for national and international collaborations for innovation in the fields of Science, Engineering, Technology and Management. The Innovation Council has started strategic steps to establish a close and continuing inter-action between the industries & busi-nesses and the students & faculties in all the undergraduate and postgraduate courses .
