To be implemented from next academic year, the new syllabus will be unveiled by Union Human Resource Development Prakash Javadekar at the AICTE office in New Delhi.

โ€œOver 11 expert subject committees have been working on suggestions to revamp the old syllabus in order to include the latest advancements in engineering and technology,โ€ AICTE Chairman Dr Anil Sahasrabudhe told Indian Express in Pune.

โ€œThe current engineering syllabusโ€ฆ has become very old. Thatโ€™s whyโ€ฆ changes have been made in the syllabus. By next week, the new engineering syllabus will be announced and from the next academic year, all engineering colleges across the country will start implementing it,โ€ he added.

He said that students taking admission in engineering courses from next academic year will have to undergo a three-week orientation programme as part of the new syllabus.

โ€œFor the first time, students who take admission in engineering courses would have to undergo a mandatory three-week orientation programme which would be part of their syllabus,โ€ Sahasrabudhe told The Indian Express.

โ€œThe students come from diverse backgroundsโ€ฆ many of them come from rural areas and may not be well-versed in English, even though they are bright students. At this stage, they start developing an inferiority complex and a positive intervention for these students is necessary in the first few weeksโ€ฆ so that they donโ€™t feel left out. It is necessary to create a level playing field and thatโ€™s what these orientation workshops would do,โ€ he said.

Saying that the orientation programme would focus on interaction between teachers and students, he said many programmes such as yoga, cultural activities, competitions would be part of the workshop.

Highlighting that a handbook has been prepared for teachers to help them teach it, he said the new syllabus will help students with better job prospects.
