This is how brain meets business, when General Motors Corp (GM), sets up a new Collaborative Research Lab (CRL) with the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kharagpur to carry out research in areas of electronics, controls, and software.
Not just business, the new collaboration shows a bit of academic interest too. These new partners will jointly develop a new post-graduate degree in the above mentioned fields. GM has promised Rs.5 Crore for research to be done in the next five years within the new lab, which will be co-managed by GM's Indian Science Lab and IIT Kharagpur.
The country’s leading business daily quoted Bharati this morning. “The aim in setting up the lab is to carry out research projects of exploratory nature and to create necessary infrastructure and curriculum for master and Phd programmes as a means of bolstering development of talent required to address future challenges of the industry,” said Prakash Bharati, Director, GM's India Science Lab.
