"Chandra Koduru, General Manager and Head - Academic Interface Programme - Tata Consultancy Services"

TCS Academic Interface Programme (AIP), as a function, started more than 20 years ago in a humble way with a vision to bridge the gap between Academia and fast evolving IT Industry and also to enhance the employability skills amongst the students.

As the Technology is advancing rapidly and Industries are orienting themselves to this rapid change, the gap between Industry and Academia is widening. In this context, TCS designed AIP framework to collaborate with Academia at various levels like, Institute Management, Faculty, Students, Heads of the Department, Training and Placement Offices, etc. to bridge this gap. Under this framework, AIP conducts various activities for Academia to create awareness on latest and emerging technologies, enhancing employability skills and make the students industry ready.

  • Participation in various Academic Boards
  • Participation in various Contests, Events, Hackathons etc. as Knowledge Partner
