Institution's Innovation Council (IIC)

IIC Code: IC202218765
The Ministry of Education has formed the Innovation Cell (MIC) with the aim of promoting innovation at Higher Educational Institutes. In 2018, MIC initiated the Institution’s Innovation Council (IIC) initiative in partnership with AICTE for Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) with the aim of fostering innovation. Each participating institute was instructed to establish an IIC and conduct the designated activities.

The main objective of MIC is to foster the development of young pupils by providing them with assistance to explore innovative concepts and convert them into tangible prototypes throughout their early stages of education. IIC-ABS was created in October 2022, and we take great pride in this achievement.
