There were 1.03 lakh students specialising in different streams, mostly in engineering and science and technology, in addition to the humanities and arts, in various universities. This number was bound to increase by 15 per cent now. The best minds He said that spending an entire semester would pit young minds against the best from various countries all over the world. “You should come out of your comfort zone,” he remarked. Later, in a brief chat with reporters, Mr. Dalton said the number of people submitting false documents and other records for obtaining a visa was a small minority. “I appeal to people to avoid touts and come straight to us with original documents, else they would permanently lose eligibility to visit the US,” he said. Between October 2008 and September 2009, 1.96 lakh people had visited the US through the US Consul General, Chennai. Sixth batch A release said the 34 students were part of the sixth batch selected under the Semester Abroad Programme and the next batch of 45 students have been selected and would be leaving in January next year.

Aaruush'10 SRM University national level techno-management Festival

Intuition should be encouraged among students as it would help them come out with innovative ideas, said IIT Madras director Professor M S Ananth on Tuesday. Inaugurating Aaruush'10, a four-day national level techno-management festival, organised by SRM (Deemed) University, at Kattankulathur, Ananth said the concept had not taken root among the younger generation, especially students. "A combination of logic and intuition would help students not only succeed in their careers but also in life," he said. On the role of innovations, he said that unlike in other countries India was far behind in terms of the number of foreign students in universities and other educational institutions. The congregation of different minds from across the world would help get innovative ideas. SRM university vice-chancellor P Satyanarayanan said over 7,500 students from across the country were expected. Workshops like AutoBotz and Swarm robotics as well as defence exhibitions will be held.

Radhakrishnan on Monday said the flight- testing of the indigenous cryogenic stage of the Geo Stationary Launch Vehicle (GSLV) D3 would be conducted in April. The vehicle would carry GAST-4, a communication satellite, he told reporters after receiving an honorary degree of Doctor of Science during the 5th convocation at the SRM University in Kattankulathur. “Though we had several GSLV flights, we were using the Russian cryogenic stages,” he said. As far as cryogenic engine and stages were concerned, ISRO had tested engines for 7,500 seconds. “We have qualified the stage. The entire stage was filled and fired for its entire duration of 720 seconds at [the Liquid Propulsion Centre in] Mahendragiri in Tamil Nadu and it was very successful,” Dr. Radhakrishnan said. the hindu-news Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar today exhorted students to guard against social evils like gender discrimination, dowry system, domestic violence and female foeticide. Delivering the Fifth Convocation address of SRM University at the suburban Kattankulathur near here, she said as educated youngsters, the students had a ''great obligation'' to strive for social change, be it directly or indirectly. ‘’We should be able to motivate others by inculcating in them the need to overcome centuries-old prejudices which had no relevance in today’s world’’, she said, adding, the ground reality was that there was a social chasm on the basis of caste, creed, class, gender, geography and language. These divisive forces should be weakened through a concerted effort. ‘’We need a concerted effort to bring about a social change which can weaken these divisive forces, strengthen unity and accelerate our march for national progress, she said. Calling for incorporating aspects of humanities into the curriculum of science specialisations, she said at present the humanities were increasingly adopting a scientif approach in their research methodologies and subject specializations. ‘’There is a need to humanise science disciplines to inculcate in the impressionable minds of students, a perspective about the individual, the society, the nation and the world. ‘’Every educated youngster should have a perspective about how our polity works and what our Constittuion seeks to achieve for the nation’’, she exhorted. Calling for an integrated approach by combining science with humanity to understand the society, she said such an approach would help the education system to produce men and women of disciplined minds and restrained manners. On the role of teachers, Ms Meira Kumar said teachers, apart from generating an intellectual environment, should also create among students a thirst for knowledge. ‘’They should devise ways and means of transforming our children into socially useful and productive members of the society. The learning process must be a harmonious blend of academic excellence and human development.'' In all, 4,519 students from 86 disciplines were awarded Under- Graduate, Post Graduate and Diploma certificates, including nine Doctorates at the convocation ceremony. Of them 3,172 were men and 1,347 women. There were a total of 124 Rank holders.

VPT Silver Jubilee Valedictory function-20.6.09

Chennai: In a pioneering move, a 80-year-old Engineer's two-decade long research has proved that power could be generated from well water. Revealing this while participating in the valedictory of the silver jubilee celebrations of the Valliammai Polytechnic College, part of the SRM Group of Institutions at its campus in suburban Kattankulathur near here, Tamil Nadu Electricity Minister Arcot N Veerasamy today said he was personally satsified with the prototype project to be launched next week. Under this new innovative project, one MWof power could be generated in just 90 days when compared to other projects like thermal, hydro, wind mills, which would take at least three to five years to generate power. Mr Veerasamy, without disclosing the identity of the engineer who met him at his residence recently, said under the project, power could be produced using 15 HP motors to draw water from well. ''There is no need to have any big dams to generate power. The water from the household well can be drawn to generate power'', he added. After studying the prototype, Mr Veerasamy said this project could generate upto 10,000 MW without any gestation period. ''Once this proved successfull, there was no need any other source for producing power to meet the future needs''. He said Rs 1.5 crore has been arranged as desired by the Engineer for setting up the pilot project which would go on stream next week. Once it becomes successful, the Tamil Nadu government would wholeheartedly support this project to generate power upto 10,000 MW without any hitch. Observing that six lakh mw of power was required by 2035, He also requested the SRM Chairman T R Pachamuthu to consider venturing into power generation plants while expanding his educational plans. Stating that power from water was a revolutionary move, Mr Veerasamy said power from thermal plant was expected to be limited as the lignite stock would last only for 60 years and gas-based projects were proving costlier. Hydel projects too were becoming diffiicult due to lack of rains. Listing out various power projects launched by the DMK government after it came to power in 2006, Mr Veerasamy said the State would be self-sufficient in power from 2011. ''There will be no shortage of power as the State would be getting power fromvarious projects, including 1000 from Koodankulam Atomic power plant next year, and other projects being set up inNorth Chennai, Mettur, Tuticorin, Vallur, Ultra Mega Power Project at Cheyyur through Nuclear thermal Power Corporation, among others. Showering encomiums on Mr Pachamuthu for his self-less service in building a reputed institution like SRM, Mr Veerasamy promised the SRM Management all help in getting PG Medical courses from the coming academic year for its medical college. SRM University Vice-chancellor Prof P Sathyanaraynan, pro Chancellor P Ravi, Valliammai society Secretary Dr R shivakumar were among those who were present on the occasion
