  Lam’s India engineers build complex chip fab machines TNN | Oct 6, 2021, 07.59 AM IST Lam Research may not be as known in the semiconductor sector as those like Intel, AMD or Samsung. But the capital equipment that it provides to chip fabrication facilities enable the manufacture of some of the most advanced semiconductors. “We’re probably the world’s most underappreciated company responsible for critical output,” says Rangesh Raghavan, corporate VP and general manager at Lam Research India. Lam Research has a large presence in India, with over half of the R&D resources of the company based out of its offices here. So the work done out of India has a huge impact on the firm’s capabilities. The research done here is what allows the machines used to make the world’s chips run. Lam is also building a new state-of-the-art lab in Bengaluru which should be ready by the middle of next year and which will more than double its footprint. “On the software side, some of the engineering ...

Printed from Computer science, communications most lucrative TNN | Oct 6, 2021, 07.44 AM IST Prof Debabrata Das, director of IIIT-Bangalore, says the engineering fields of computer science and communications are certain to stay the most lucrative in the coming years because of the job opportunities in the fields. “Demand for computer science, data science and communication science has gone up, apart from interdisciplinary subjects such as robotics, mechatronics, and biomedical engineering,” he says. Mechatronics is the branch of engineering that focuses on the integration of electronic and electrical engineering systems, apart from robotics, computer science and telecommunications. Das’s own work has been in the field of computer networking, mainly on broadband wireless network, 5G and 6G, and medium access control protocol (MACP). MACP protocols enforce a methodology to allow multiple devices access to a shared media network. “If two of us communicate at the same time with the same wi...

Through this assessment, for the first time, tech education council will test students while they're studying instead of after graduation, to identify lacunae and redress them. KRITIKA SHARMA 22 September, 2021 8:57 am IST New Delhi: For the first time, the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) is set to measure the learning levels of engineering as well as management students during the course of their studies, ThePrint has learnt. The move is the result of earlier findings of skill assessment reports, which have shown, among other things, that Indian engineers lack new-age tech skills . The AICTE’s Student Learning Assessment project will test management students on skills like ability in planning and organising human, financial and physical resources. For engineering, the skills tested will be in emerging areas like blockchain technology and artificial intelligence, core engineering knowledge, and basic knowledge of maths, physics and chemistry. Mental and social a...

Every person, who in the future intends to use the AICTE website, must carefully check its credentials before proceeding, the council said. (Representative image) AICTE said that they have only one official website which is aicte-india.org. Whereas the two fake websites are aictsd.com and aictetindia.org. All India Council For Technical Education (AICTE) has notified there are two websites that are being circulated as AICTE websites but are actually fake. The council also mentioned that they have only one official website which is aicte-india.org. Whereas the two fake websites are aictsd.com and aictetindia.org. They also went on to mention that if a person gets duped by any of the two fake sites, then AICTE will not be responsible. Every person, who in the future intends to use the AICTE website, must carefully check its credentials before proceeding. The idea behind releasing the notification is to make people aware of the frauds that can take place if they do not check the credenti...

AICTE has approved engineering colleges across Odisha to offer select BTech courses in regional languages from the upcoming new academic year 2022. However, the development has evoked mixed reactions among the students In order to check the language barrier and dropout rate among students, the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has approved engineering colleges across Odisha to offer select BTech courses in regional languages from the upcoming new academic year 2022. However, the development has evoked mixed reactions among the students. In line with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, the BTech courses will now be available in 11 regional languages including Odia. Preparations to roll out the new curriculum setup have been initiated in Odisha with the AICTE giving green signal for the move. According to sources, books for the course will be prepared in Odia language soon under the stewardship of Odia Language and Research Centre. The centre will form a committee a...
