Industry-Institute Partnership Cell (IIPC)
sanctioned by the All Indian Council for
Technical Education (AICTE) which acts
as an interface between the industries and
Institute to take up collaborative activities
for mutual benefit. It strengthens the
bond between industries and institute and
works for arranging industrial training for
students and identifies student project work
in industries relevant to meet the industry
needs. The cell interacts with R & D
Organizations for conducting joint research
work. It also arranges technical exhibitions,
open houses, project competitions and
personality development workshops. A
short-term tailor made programme is
also set for the benefit of professionals in
various technical disciplines. The institution
focuses on need based training programme
in industries. Under this scheme, our
institute received Rs.700.00 lakhs from
Department of Industrial Promotion

Center at our Institute for catering to the
needs of local textile industry. Institute
has also established "Entrepreneurship
Development Cell" (EDC) to act as an
institutional mechanism for providing
various services including information
to budding S & T entrepreneurs. DKTE
creates entrepreneurial culture in the
parent institution and other by promoting
development of S & T based enterprises and
employment opportunities. Inspiring students is integral to ensure
the success and to encourage them to fulfill
their potential. Faculty members of DKTE
follow developments in the field to remain
current in expertise and knowledge base.
Inspiration can also take many forms, from
helping a pupil through the academic year
and their short-term goals, to guide them
towards their future career. DKTE mentors
focus on a broad set of goals
for learners, such as students'
mastery of content, their
abilities to consider and critique,
and particularly in professional
fields and also the development
of skill sets that enable students
to undertake career positions.
As a source of high potential,
they employ a variety of
teaching strategies based on the
institution. As an outcome based
education institution it provides
students with research modules
such as training, soft skills, good
knowledge, highly qualified &
industry experienced faculty
and advanced machineries
and Center of Excellence,
BOSCH, and Robotics Lab
are the research labs active in
the institution.
Change does not happen by

initiative. The DKTE education
society through its initiation
gave the spark for a tweak and
its working for the young brains
craving for creative erudition
developing a simple and efficient
style of life through system
