The document discusses the need for greater industry-institute interaction to bridge the gap between what industry expects from students and their actual preparedness. It notes that while students are strong academically, industry wants students who are billable from day one and can stay relevant. A framework is needed for regular connection and knowledge-sharing between industry and academic institutes. Benefits of increased interaction include improved rankings, faculty development, and opportunities for students like internships, mentoring and projects. A plan is proposed for industry experts to give monthly online presentations to students, with the institute responsible for scheduling, promotion and student participation.

1. Preamble
Across Industrial forum interactions, Professionals including CEO,
CHRO, COO, CFO, CMO, et al, feel that, students are not
Industry ready. The gap between Industry expectations and
academic preparedness is wide. Industry feel students are good in
Academics, but Corporate want students who are billable from the
day one and stay relevant all times. On the macro level, the
challenge lies in lack of connect between the stake holders -
Industry and Institute. Academic Institute should have
model/framework to connect with Industry on regular
times to enhance KAS-Knowledge-Attitude-Skills. Moreover, it is
the Institute who should make first move of bridging the gap and
work with Industry. Once the 3 stakeholders Institute-Industry-
Students come together, there would be positive results, and the
network with Corporate Executives is an advantage !!!
