For Faculties of GTU affiliated Engineering colleges in Saurashtra On
5th October 2013, Saturday at
Atmiya Institute of Technology & Science, Rajkot
(GTU affiliated Degree eng colleges of Sankuls ( Rajkot-1/2/3, Morbi, Kutch,Jamnagar,
Junagarh, Bhavnagar and Surendranagar are required to participate)
GTU has been consistently making efforts to ensure that every single IDP/UDP become more
original and relevant to the users. To reduce the possibility of reinventing wheel and to
increase the originality quotient of the projects we have introduced some new approaches.
Ref- http://projects.gtu.ac.in/patentSearch.jsp , each student of current final year while
submitting the required data as a part of the project tracking and mentoring platform is
required to study 5 patents from open source domain and try to analyse them. We have
arranged series of capacity building workshops for faculty members and students and
trained them by now to let them better understand the process and its relevance. As every
student in final year BE is required to make the said exercise during this month, we appeal to
colleges in Rajkot and surrounding area to nominate at least one faculty member from each
department for the proposed FDP workshop on 5th October 2013 (more can also attend).
Any interested faculty member from any other zone/area can also attend this workshop.
By attending this workshop, faculties can guide their students on how to study patents, what
are the questions they have to answer and from where they can get information to generate
online PSAR. The training material will be shared with all faculty members so that they can
take similar sessions for all their current final year students after going back to their colleges.
We would like to see that every single GTU affiliated Degree Engg College must ensure that
the nominated faculty members get trained and train their students afterwards.
Registration: Faculty members can self-nominate or get recommended by the college
authority and submit their names via given link:
