Allow student entrepreneurs with short attendance to sit for exams: AICTE to engineering colleges

India TV News  

The All India Council of Technical Education has directed engineering colleges and technical institutions to allow student entrepreneurs to sit for examination even if their attendance is short. "Student entrepreneurs should be allowed to sit for the examination, even if their attendance is less than the minimum permissible percentage, with due permission from the institute," a senior council official told PTI. "The institutions should allow their students to take a semester or year break or even more depending upon the decision of review committee constituted by the institute to work on their startups and re-join academics to complete the course," the official added. Connecting student entrepreneurs with real life entrepreneurs will help the students in understanding real challenges which may be faced by them while going through the innovation funnel and will increase the probability of success," the official said.
