Current situation
• Most MNCs continue to do their research work within their own country
• “Job Focus” than “Technology Focus” in educational institutions
• ‘Knowledge’ Vs ‘Skill’
• Gap between ‘Industry requirements’ and ‘Course content’ still significant
• Deep ‘domain’ knowledge is required to do meaningful research ineducational institutions
• In most cases, Industry-Academic interface not ‘research’ focussed
• Basic research Vs Applied researchBreak through Innovations Vs Incremental Innovations

What needs to be done
• Growth rate of BRIC countries shifts the focus of research toemerging countries; New mantra of MNCs : ‘local’ for ‘local’
• Develop in students a “passion for technology”
• Partnership with Industry associations to improve the skill level of thestudents/faculty
• A few faculty should focus only on fostering a ‘research culture’without the responsibility for teaching/evaluations
• Upfront investment by Educational Institutions in Infrastructure and
Laboratories
• Shift the cooperation with Industries to a new level; free exchange of resources between Academia and Industry
