“
It is a privilege to lead the University Institute of Technology (UIT), Gadchiroli, a conducted autonomous institute of Gondwana University, established under a Public-Private Partnership with Lloyds Metals and Energy Ltd. as our esteemed industry partner.
At UIT, we are committed to redefining technical education by seamlessly integrating academic learning with real-world industrial exposure. Our unique PPP model enables students to gain hands-on experience, industry-relevant skills, and practical insights that enhance their employability and readiness for global careers.
Our focus is on fostering innovation, research, and skill development in areas aligned with regional and national industrial growth, particularly in mining, metallurgy, and allied sectors. We aim to create a dynamic ecosystem where students, faculty, and industry collaborate to drive excellence and sustainable development.
I firmly believe that education must go beyond classrooms. At UIT, we strive to nurture not only competent engineers but also responsible professionals equipped to meet the challenges of a rapidly evolving technological landscape.
A land mark MoU was signed between Gondawana University, Gadchiroli and Curtin University, Australia to lunch mining - focused BTech and Diploma Programs backed by Lloyds Infinite Foundation (LIF) an Lloyds Metals & Energy Ltd. This initiative aims into a hubs for skilled mining engineering.
LIF plays a key role in this initiative with Lloyds pledging major funding to setup University Institute of Technology. The curriculum will be developed will be developed jointly by Lloyds Infinite Foundation, Gondawana University and Curtin University, combining global expertise and local opportunity to build a skilled future for the regions.
I invite students, industry stakeholders, and academic partners to join us in this journey of growth, innovation, and excellence.
