convocation of SRM University near here. "My advice to you is create a
similar enterprise here. Create Microsoft here. Create an Apple. Create a
Google here in India.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">And then own it and manage it," he said. "It is
most unfortunate that even after 65 years of independence, we have not focused
on education. As a nation, we should focus not only on individual progress or
economic progress, but also nation building," he said.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;">He noted that 65 per cent of people in India are aged below
35 years. Observing that knowledge would be the biggest bridge between
education and nation building, he said it is sad that no university in India
has attained top global ranking status.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">"What is lacking we have to identify and work upon
it." Knowledge is also the "most potent tool" to fight poverty,
he said, adding there was "no reason" why India should lag behind
other developed nations.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;">"We have the brightest minds. We have a number of
philosophers. Why should be there only few SRMs?", he asked. Stating that
private enterprises are more eager to play in the education sector, he said,
"I am quietly convinced that we should give them a free hand."<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">"That is why I recently said IITs and IIMs should be
there in every state of our country", he said. Pointing out that skill
development is the need of the hour, he said "if there is no skill, there
will not be employment." Modi later awarded certificates and degrees to
about 10,290 students of SRM University.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The Camber Racing team was formulated in September of 2009 to compete in on-track student events organized by SAE India and Formula SAE. SAE or the ‘Society of Automotive Engineers’ is the world governing body on automotive and related fields. With the passion and commitment, the students work as a team to design, build, test and compete an open-wheeled formula style race car. Since the teams formation, three such cars have been developed i.e. CR800, LJM01, The Beast. Keeping in mind the future competitions the team has already started their work on the next car "B13".<br />

The concept behind the competition is that a fictional manufacturing company has contacted a design team to develop a small Formula style race car. The prototype is to be evaluated for its potential as a racing car. The target marketing group for the race car is the nonprofessional weekend autocross racer. Each team designs and produces a prototype based on well laid down rules & regulations. The competition comprises seven events: Cost and Manufacturing Analysis, Presentation, Design, Acceleration, Skid Pad, Autocross, and Endurance.

The Formula SAE competition is organised by the Society of Automotive Engineers and is held in UK, USA, Germany, Italy, Austria, Australia, Spain, Brasil.

In 2011, in SUPRA SAEINDIA competition, the team was ranked 2nd in Marketing Presentation and finished in 24th out of 40 team participating in the competition.<br />

 In 2012, in SUPRA SAEINDIA competition, the team was awarded the overall 1st prize out of 65 teams and along with other awards such as 2nd in Endurance event, 2nd in Autocross event and 2nd in Skid-pad event.

Each year a new car is made from scratch and is an improvement than the previous one. Teamwork, leadership and marketing are the few skills the students learn apart from getting their theoretical knowledge into practice through the design process. The team members and the sponsors get equal opportunity to connect with each other and develop a strong network.</div>
