AICTE-IDEA Lab

What is AICTE-IDEA (Idea Development, Evaluation & Application) Lab 

AICTE approved institutions, encouraging students for application of science, technologies, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fundamentals towards enhanced hands-on experience, learning by doing and product visualisation.

The Ideas Lab is an intensive, interactive and free-thinking environment, where a diverse group of participants from a range of disciplines and backgrounds gets together for five days - away from their everyday worlds - to immerse themselves in collaborative thinking processes in order to construct innovative …

AICTE IDEA labs will be a round-the-clock common facility in these 49 institutions where students can learn to apply Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fundamentals on ideas through hands-on learning.


Purpose

The purpose of IDEA Lab is to provide all facilities under one roof, for conversion of an idea into a prototype. With these facilities in the campus, more students and faculty will be encouraged to take up creative work and in the process, get training on creative thinking, problem solving, collaboration etc.

Beyond textbook learning, the focus of IDEA labs will be to train students so that they become imaginative and creative and stay so at the workplaces they join. Each college will be required to organise training sessions for interested students and support projects and by providing online learning materials.

Promoting experiential learning in technical education, Rajive Kumar, AICTE secretary said: “There should be no lock put on IDEA Lab which should work on trust, allowing free access to facilities 24x7. The IDEA Labs in smaller cities will strengthen the innovation ecosystem of the country.”

Science and engineering

“As a common facility embedded in the institution, the IDEA Lab will make engineering graduates more imaginative and creative, besides getting basic training in the 21st-century skills like- critical thinking, problem-solving, research, collaboration, communication, lifelong learning, etc,” an official statement said.

The IDEA Lab also intends to encourage teachers to conduct “multidisciplinary education and research” emphasized in the National Education Policy, NEP 2020.
