Hyderabad: In a first of its kind initiative, VNR Vignana Jyothi Institute of Engineering & Technology conducted a five-day Design Thinking Certificate Course in association with Idea Labs, Hyderabad. The certificate took the participants through 40 hours of classroom learning and hands-on activities conducted by industry experts.
About 200 students of all engineering disciplines participated in the course aimed at sensitising engineering students to design methodologies. Speaking at the valedictory function, Pankaj Diwan, MD, IdeaLabs, stated, “Design Thinking is highly recommended by industry experts to help engineers empathise with their users and design better products. The most interesting part of the programme was to weave students of different disciplines of engineering into teams.
Addressing the students, Dr. DN Rao, President-Vignana Jyothi, said that it is important to learn design-related skills since this gives a great leading edge against their peers. He shared his experience as an innovator. Idea Labs has announced their support to incubate one of the teams which has come up with an idea of “Insulin Patch”, a smart wearable device with an accompanying mobile app. The 40-hour Design Thinking Certification Course was coordinated by Dr N Sandhya, Dr Chakravarthula Kiran, Archana Bhange K, Dr Naresh, PVS Gopi Raghunadh.
