MJCET scores historic first with RedPine Signals
It is an age when students should strive to develop products and not stick to making projects as their academic exercises.
It is an age when students should strive to develop products and not stick to making projects as their academic exercises. This becomes more pronounced because such in-house works can be deemed as prototypes that stems from ideas that can be developed with the limitless applications that are available now-a-days.
Understanding this sentiment, which also gives opportunities to students to give shape to their ideas and creative minds, Muffakham Jah College of Engineering and Technology (MJCET) has tied-up with the globally acclaimed wireless systems company, RedPine Signals Inc. A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between the two in the MJCET campus on Wednesday.
RedPine Signals, which has a R&D unit in Hyderabad, will support students in turning ideas into products by providing them with WyzBee kits free of cost. Wyzbee is the company’s latest platform for Internet of Things (IoT) that is aimed at promoting product development by a separate industry-driven course-Internet of Things (IoT) for Device Development, which is being offered to third year engineering students of ECE department.
N Venkatesh, Senior VP (Advanced Technologies) of RedPine International and Zafar Javeed, Secretary, Sultan ul Uloom Education Society signed the MoU in the presence of RedPine Signal’s Senior VP Software Development Mr. Raju Macharla and MJCET Director Dr Basheer Ahmed.
Speaking on the occasion, Venkatesh said “today Make in India is the buzzword. The product prototypes can be shown to the world and not be restricted to classrooms or exhibitions.
Incidentally, this is the first formal MoU signed by the company outside its California headquarters, although they have tied-up with some Indian entities. Dr Mohammed Arifuddin Sohel welcomed the guests while Dr Kaleem Fatima proposed a vote of thanks.
