A series of programmes will mark the silver jubilee celebrations of Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU).
Apart from lectures from entrepreneurs, academics and eminent personalities, the university will encourage workshops and interactions aimed at increasing industry-academia interactions and cultural programmes.
VTU will lay a strong emphasis on improving academic excellence and for laying a good foundation for research. This is expected to transform VTU into an institute of eminence. A detailed institutional development plan is being prepared to make the university a self-sustaining institution in the near future, Vice-Chancellor Karisiddappa said in a release.
