Special RBI Loan SchemeKey concept – Burden on the Beneficiary

• Education loan would be available to all the students selected by the college at Rs 1 lakh per annum

• Loan amount would be transferred directly to college.• The responsibility for repayment will rest on the students

themselves. Recovery

• Students will pay back this money 2-3 years after graduation and settling down at simple interest

• Educational Institutions would ensure that there are no defaults by keeping continuous and frequent track of the movements of its graduates after their graduation.

63


COEP as a Role Model to 50 odd top colleges in India

• Mere change in nomenclature of institute will nothelp (RECs to NITs)

• Funding alone will not help• Autonomy and developing a process for change

and implementing it with total dedication andsincerity alone will help transform an institute.

64


Faculty on Sabbatical leave

• Database of all Indian Professors abroad• Track their Sabbatical leave facility• Invite them to Indian Institutes• Provide all logistic support• Offering state of the art elective course

to catch up in terms of technology• Networking for future research projects

65


What we wish to do as deemed University• Innovative integrated UG/PG programme of 5 year

duration • A Centre for Applied/Inter-disciplinary R&D facilitating

Ph.D./Post Ph.D. programmes in engineering/science & related disciplines;

• Masters in Science, Mathematics, Humanities• Virtual Labs • Increased number of PhDs. • An attractive destination for competent/experienced

faculty from far and near for academic/research in frontier areas;

66


• An attraction for talented/merited UG/PG engineering students from all over India for studies in new/emerging subject areas;

• A Centre for Innovation and Creativity in Engineering Sciences wedded to the development and application of new technologies;.

• MOUs with top universities of the world to start joint programmes

• Incubation facility under the umbrella of Bhau Institute of Innovation, Entrepreneurship and Leadership.
