Newsletter (September/October 2021)

Welcome Message

Greetings!
After the 2^nd wave of COVID-19, as the things are getting normal it is good to have offline awareness sessions and meetings for the planning of activities and procurement of IDEA lab equipment. Also, as per the guidelines of the AICTE-IDEA Lab Steering Committee, our IDEA lab Coordinator and Co-coordinator have to attend FDPs in offline mode. Their learnings in these FDPs will initiate the activities with greater impact. Before these PDPs, they have attended a couple of online sessions organized by the AICTE-IDEA lab team on using various open-source software for PCB design, CAD, etc. So that, they will be ready for the FDP in advance. With all these progressive steps the face of the KKWIEER-IDEA lab is changing day by day.
