Journal CURIE from BITS Pilani

The alumni of the Institute are spread across the globe from Australia to America.

The task of a university is the creation of future and BITS Pilani by joining hands with a host of Industries and Research Laboratories, has created an entirely new educational philosophy in cooperative education.

BITS Pilani has established strong linkages with the industry and research laboratories for the past over three decades through the Practice School Program for the campus students, Work Integrated Learning Programmes for the Human Resource Development of a whole spectrum of Indian Corporate majors and off campus PhD. The strong industry linkages concept is what puts BITS Pilani as one among the top ranking universities in India today. Recently the WASE collaboration pioneered by Wipro and BITS Pilani bagged the coveted Corporate University Xchange (CUX) USA award for Best Practice in College Corporate partnership.

Considering the need for a dedicated journal to foster the university Research Laboratories Industry interactions and document the efforts, BITS Pilani chose the auspicious April 14, 2008 Ramnavami day which also happens to be the birthday of the Institute’s founder Chairman Shri G D Birla to release the Journal CURIE which stands for Cooperation among University, Research and Industrial Enterprises.

Prof LK Maheshwari Vice Chancellor BITS Pilani released the journal in the Lecture Theatre Complex in a brief function attended by DR Chandra Shekhar Director CEERI, senior officers, faculty members and students of the Institute.
