The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has been focusing on making students set up their own businesses, rather than leaving them as job seekers, said AICTE advisor Dileep Malkhede here on Saturday. He added that the council had discussed the idea of having a centralised entrance examination for undergraduate engineering courses in the country.
“We had put forward the idea of a common entrance exam for engineering courses as several universities are having their own entrance exams and students have to prepare for them separately,” Malkhede said. However, there is progress in this regard so far he said, speaking on the sidelines of convocation at Kumaraguru College of Technology.
To a question about graduates’ difficulty in finding jobs, he said, “We have been promoting incubation centres and other initiatives to promote entrepreneurship. AICTE has also started courses on entrepreneurship, which has been adopted by universities.”
