RATAN TATA-SULTAN QABOOS India International Centre for Engineering Education and Research (IICEER)

The New Education Policy NEP 2020 being implemented by the Government of India to revolutionize Higher Education in India needs appreciation, support and contribution. In line with NEP2020, Society for Engineering Education understands that problems Engineering Education faces in a big country like India need solutions based on synergy and research. So in order to be Leaders of Engineering Education, Indian Higher Educational Institutions have to interact with top institutions across the world and learn good practice from the best. We at SEE-INDIA realized the necessicity to establish the India International Centre for Engineering Education(IICEER) that will look into the problems faced by India in Internationalization of its Engineering Education, Improvement of International Ranking of Its elite Institutions, perform research related to Accreditation, Curriculum Design, Teaching-learning, Assessment, Employability, Research, Industry-Institute Interaction, International Rankings and other important issues, where traditional Institutes of Technology or Colleges of engineering do not focus on.

IICEER intends to perform the following:

1. Promote Engineering Education across the world towards better Quality
2. Perform Research on Engineering Education and solves problems faced by Engineering Education in India
3. Offer Programs on Engineering Education (Teaching-Learning, Curriculum Design, Accreditation, Assessment etc.)
4. Train Engineering Faculty on Teaching and Learning, Curriculum Design, Assessment, Online Teaching, Institutional Development, Internationalization of Institution and Engineering Education
5. Bring Synergy between Societies for Engineering Education with similar goals and Intentions
6. Act as a Bridge between International organizations and Indian Institutions
7. Promote a culture of Quality
8. Bring Industrial support to establish a training centre for software and hardware for human resource development
9. Offer training to help unemployed Engineering Graduates
10. Build a network of Industry Partners, Individuals and Institutions to achieve Synergy
11. Promote activities to make IICEER financially Sustainable

IICEER would have the following facilities:

1. A Training Centre with a capacity of 1000 undergraduates
2. An auditorium of equal capacity
3. Few state of the art class rooms with sufficient computing resources
4. Training and recruitment halls
5. Resource Centre for Engineering Education
6. Research Facility
7. A Faculty Training Facility
8. A Reprographic Facility
9. Research Facility
10. An Admission Information Centre

IICEER is looking for Industry sponsorship under CSR schemes to develop the Infrastructure in a phased manner. We invite experts who will help us in achieving the goals of our mission.

We have acquired a small piece of land near Guntur-Tenali region, near Amaravathi, one of the the Capital Regions of Andhra Pradesh. The choice for the location of IICEER is based on the high concentration of Engineering Students in the state of Andhra Pradesh , where thousands of Engineering students migrate to big cities like Bengaluru(Marathahalli), Chennai and Hyderabad(Ameerpet) for skilling themselves for employment, especially for the software industry. IICEE proposes to establish a training centre where Engineering graduates can skill themselves on the software/hardware of choice with the support of the concerned Industry. IICEE welcomes software houses to support this venture so that Engineering graduates find it to get themselves equipped with right skills the industry needs.
