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
