Description

IIT Madras Pravartak Technologies Foundation announced on January 5 a collaboration with Sony India Software Centre Pvt Ltd to provide engineering college students with industry-ready technical education. The training program's second batch will begin in the third week of January 2024. The application deadline is January 10, 2024. Students should visit the official website.

According to IIT-M, training will be provided in areas such as AI/ML, product security, and computer graphics. The program is free, and students will receive stipends based on predetermined criteria. The IIT-M Pravartak and Sony India will select approximately 30 students for the Finishing School Training Program.

The IITM Pravartak Technologies Foundation is a Section 8 company that houses a Sensors, Networking, Actuators, and Control Systems Technology Innovation Hub. It is funded by the Government of India's Department of Science and Technology as part of its National Mission on Interdisciplinary Cyber-Physical Systems and hosted by IIT Madras.

Balamurali Shankar, General Manager, Digital Skills Academy – IIT Madras Pravartak Technologies Foundation, said, “This program was offered in 2023 in similar technologies. Most of the students got placed in top IT/ITES organisations and start-ups. We plan to extend this program in 2024 aiming to benefit deserving learners nationwide. This initiative aims to propel them forward in their chosen career paths by addressing the gap between the knowledge and skills of graduate students and the industry’s demands.”.

  •  Entrance exams will be held at various locations in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka, and Maharashtra.

Following the completion of the program, Sony India will induct a few top performers.
