The course focuses on enhancing the following key attributes among graduating students:
- Understanding of Contemporary Technology
- Understanding of Technology Abstraction
- Knowledge of Common Business Principles
- Business Discipline and Service Orientation
- Innovation Ability
- Strong in Ethics and Life Values
Pilot program: TCS partners with three engineering colleges across India in 2018-19
TCS launched the Undergraduate Engineering course in the academic year 2018-19 in partnership with three engineering colleges- SKCET (Coimbatore), BV University College of Engineering (Pune) and Sister Nivedita University (Kolkata) - across India and plans to scale up to a larger number of colleges from academic year 2019-20. TCS will support these colleges by training and developing their faculty, organising guest lectures by expert practitioners, and engaging in continuous assessment of students. Additionally, TCS will offer internship to select students and involve them in meaningful projects to provide first-hand exposure to real-life business problem.
