Boost in technological advancements drives demand for electrical and electronics engineering. However, employment is predicted to mitigate, which is a primary concern. The expectations that the companies have from their candidates and the traits that engineering graduates have do not match, which indeed forms a massive gap between industry expectation and student’s skill set level. PBL is one such platform which provides the means for the students to enrich their knowledge and skills. In-depth knowledge and real-time practical exposure are a few among the required skills. This paper emphasizes on effective implementation of PBL via the collaboration of SSDC (Student Skill Development Center) and industry to dilute the bridge between industries and engineering education. The outcomes of this approach include enhancement in self-directional learning, selfassessment, time-management and lifelong learning along with the increased ability to develop other skills. Statistical analysis showed significant improvement in projects been developed and enhanced engineering traits among students. This approach created interest among students to solve real-time projects than just doing engineering for results. Eventually, they are suitable to be chosen by the industries.Keywords

Research says that the retention span of millennials in class is about 10-15 min [1]. In this paper, the author shares his experience in engaging millennials actively.At HITAM, we introduced the Student Skill Development Centre (SSDC), which is a student-centered approach, combining two different learning methods: Problem-based Learning (PBL) and Interdisciplinary Learning. In SSDC, students work in groups and build open-ended projects. Project Based Learning in SSDC provides students an industrial experience, which makes them comfortable in understanding the real-time problems faced by the industry and helps them to gain experience in solving the issues [4]. So, designing a project becomes easy for the group because the group consists of students from different disciplines.Keywords

One needs to possess various life skills in order to prosper and promote sustainability in this progressive world. There are many such life skills, but the core life skills laid down by WHO may include problem-solving, critical thinking, decision and various other skills. One is not readily born with these qualities, but needs to imbibe them from various sources with the passage of time in order to increase personal sustainability in this walk of life. Merely teaching these life skills may not actually help a student to imbibe them. Hence, a methodology for efficient inculcation of life skills like, STUDENT SKILL DEVELOPMENT CENTRE (SSDC) with falls under PROJECT BASED LEARNING (PBL), needs to be adapted. With the usage of traditional pedagogy, it is possible to generate theoretical awareness but inculcation of life skills is a task in itself. Hence project based learning or outcome based learning comes into the picture. The change in teaching methodology which was introduced in order to record the inculcation of life skills was the origination of the Student Skill Development Centre (SSDC). In SSDC, student of various domains imbibe knowledge by generating self-taught solutions to realistic problems. As per the observations, the students working under SSDC or other project based learning (PBL) centres tend to inculcate enhanced decision making, critical thinking, team work and problem solving skills as compared to those being educated by traditional approach. These students find it easier to cope up with any problem they come across in their lives. Hence it can be concluded that inculcation of life skills is rapid in those students who work under skills development centres. Such students also tend to sustain and prosper in the long run.Keywords
