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. 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 during their informative years.

Ideally, Institution Innovation Council is a faculty led, but student centric body formed by the institute with active representation of entrepreneurial faculties, students and expert’s representations from other Institutions. MIC has envisioned encouraging creation of ‘Institution’s Innovation Council (IICs)’ across selected HEIs. Institution Innovation Council plays an instrumental role in building and streamlining innovation and start-up ecosystem at institutional level.
