For the past 50 years, Karnataka has been a leader in higher education. It is the top choice for those seeking a career in engineering due to its diverse range of colleges, exceptional education, and high job placement rate after graduation. The state’s focus on higher education has resulted in the development of a large pool of skilled professionals who are in high demand globally.
This year ComedK has also launched COMED KARES, an initiative that will assist students from participating institutions in becoming job-ready through skill enhancement courses. COMED KARES has set up eight Innovation Hubs in Karnataka 4 of which are in Bengaluru and the rest are located at Mysuru, Kalaburagi, Mangalore, and Belgaum. Each hub is housed in a 5000 sq-ft state-of-the-art center. The hubs are equipped with high end equipment (Wood routing, Laser cutting, 3D printers, AR-VR equipment, Hand tools, Computer SW, UI –UX tools etc). Programs like Rapid Prototyping, Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Internet of Things (IOT) are offered at the Innovation Hubs. With this initiative, Karnataka has also become the first state to introduce skill-based training to private engineering colleges.
“We are delighted to welcome students from around India to seek admissions to leading Engineering Institutions in Karnataka.” said Dr. Kumar, Executive Secretary at COMEDK. “Over 150 premier colleges accept students through UGET, and we’re proud to provide a fair, inclusive and non-exploitative platform to connect them with young talent.”
Adds Mr P. Muralidhar, CEO, ERA Foundation: “We believe that merit and aptitude should be the only criteria that determine where a student should pursue further studies.
