How colleges bridge education and industry

Colleges are integrating industry-relevant skills into their programs to prepare students for evolving job markets. Many institutions are combining practical applications with theoretical learning, offering project-based programs, internships, and industrial exposure in fields like engineering and pharmacy.
“Educational institutions are shifting from traditional, theory-heavy curricula to focus on workforce readiness,” said Amritsar Group of Colleges (AGC) chairman Amit Sharma. “Events like cultural and technical festivals provide students with platforms to develop diverse skills and practical experience,” he said adding that AGC also incorporates extracurricular activities such as cultural and technical events to foster holistic development,” he added.
Graduates from such programs often secure placements in various companies like TCS and Microsoft. “These efforts aim to align education with industry trends and equip students for current and future challenges,” said AGC’s Principal Dr Gaurav Tejpal, who also said with NAAC’s ‘A’ grade accreditation, AGC continues to align its programs with industry trends.
