Terming his campus as one of the fastest growing engineering institutions in the State, Baswaraj Gadgay, Director of Kalaburagi Regional Postgraduate Centre of Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU), said that plans were on to make it a most sought-after institution in the region for technical education.
“Our Regional Centre of VTU is one among the 100 premier institutions in the country that has a 5G Lab. The VTU is among a few technologically sound institutions in the country that were allowed to offer online courses. Efforts are on to make the Kalaburagi Regional Centre of VTU a most sought-after institution for technological education in the region by augmenting our capacity and quality and expanding the infrastructure that is on a par with any private institution in Bengaluru,” Mr. Gadgay said at a media conference in Kalaburagi on Friday.
When asked about how the university could manage to impart practical experience while offering online courses, Mr. Gadgay said that virtual laboratories were in place to take care of the practicals in the online courses apart from arranging industry interactions.
