As a tribute to Dr. Dara.P.Antia for his outstanding contributions and dynamic leadership in advancing technical education, engineering profession and technology management, the Dr.Dara.P.Antia Lecture Series has been instituted by the Indian Institute Of Metals (IIM) in the year 2006. So this year as well, IIM, Pune Chapter had organized the Memorial Lecture on the 12th of October, 2012 at Institute Auditorium, COEP. The lecture was delivered by Prof. E. C. Subbarao, Chief Consulting Advisor (Research), Tata Consultancy Services on ‘Challenges Facing India’s Higher Engineering Education System’. The lecture was followed by Workshop on Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME): Challenges and Opportunities for Manufacturing Industries.
The lecture proved to be all the more advantageous to the fellow students of our college owing to the hands on experience they acquired from the workshop that was organized and the practical knowledge they received. All in all, the event was a great success!
