Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), Govt. of India has established 'MHRD's Innovation Cell (MIC)' to systematically foster the culture of Innovation amongst all Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). The primary mandate of MIC is to encourage, inspire and nurture young students by supporting them to work with new ideas and transform them into prototypes while they are informative years.
MIC has envisioned encouraging creation of 'Institution's Innovation Council (IICs)' across selected HEIs. A network of these IICs will be established to promote innovation in the Institution through multitudinous modes leading to an innovation promotion eco-system in the campuses.
Innovation Centre at BMSIT&M was formed in December 2015. It promotes innovation by encouraging students to take up innovative, interdisciplinary technical projects. It provides technical support during the phase of ideation and prototyping. It also provides funding for meritorious prototypes.
Since November 2018, Institutional Innovation Council (IIC) has been constituted in our College under Ministry of HRD’s Innovation Cell.
“To inspire and motivate faculty and students of all disciplines within the organization to nurture, educate and inculcate innovative thinking through systematic approach for a better living”
“To Influence the rate and direction of ideas without compromising the quality of the outcome to benefit the organization, community, society by fulfilling the societal needs”
To promote innovation culture in the campus by
