ABOUT CENTRE FOR ENTREPRENEURSHIP DEVELOPMENT:

Minds of the younger generation have been opened up in the process of India's march into the liberalized

era. Success stories of Indian IT, biotech and other high-tech companies and the exceptional performance

of Indian entrepreneurs have begun to fire the imagination of younger minds and motivated the youth

towards entrepreneurship and start-up venturing.

Today innovation is a key behind technological development. Campuses are the right places to breed

innovation. The scope given in present university system of technical education is not focused on

innovation and entrepreneurship. It was felt that creating awareness amongst the students about

“Entrepreneurship as a career option” was essential. Keeping this in view we have started CED in March

2006. Since its inception, CED has been conducting training programs on various aspect of

entrepreneurship. Every Thursday evening programme is conducted as per schedule prepared at the

beginning of the semesters. These activities are also helpful in preparing and facing the placement

requirements.

OBJECTIVES:

1. To instill “Entrepreneurship as a Career Option” for BECians.

2. To build Entrepreneurial capabilities through training.

3. To groom BECians in product development and linking the same to academic projects.

4. To promote Entrepreneurship amongst the students by creating a conducive ecosystem for the students

to develop their creative ideas into brilliant business plans such that they are motivated to come up

with their own Start-ups

5. To incubate Entrepreneurial activities.

6. To support young Entrepreneurs through Techno-managerial activities.

7. To conduct research on entrepreneurship: a competitive advantage to technocrats.

Impact:
