Manipal: With the contribution of private players in the defense sector continue to grow for years, Manipal Institute of Technology (MIT), Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE) is ready to introduce MTECH in Defense Technology Current with defense with the Defense Organization of Research and Development (Drdo ) This year.
A special program will help create a talented worker pool for the defense sector, and for the past year’s thesis, postgraduate students will be presented opportunities to work in Drdo Laboratories, Public Sector Defense Units (PSU) and industry.
Confirming this development, CDR Anil Rana, Director, MIT, told Toi: “We aim to launch this course this year.
We have taken responsibility after the Drdo and all Indian Councils for Technical Education (AICTE) launched this program.
In the second year, Students can choose the specialization of the subject.
“” This is the only opportunity because many laboratories are needed by students who take this course with Drdo.
We coordinate with Drdo, and are being finalized in the laboratory and other aspects.
There are many opportunities, not only on Drdo Labs, but also with some private players who enter the manufacturing sector of defense equipment and system integration, “he said.
The current intake for courses is 30, and MIT works closely with the Drdo and Institute of Defense Scientists and Technology (IDST).
“While the Lab is one aspect, MIT also sees employing Ex-Drdo scientists as faculties, because some technologies may be sensitive, and their expertise may not be available in private organizations.
There are many documents and planning.
The team works hard to launch the earliest course , “said CDR Anil Rana.
