development of these key skills is well
embedded in most courses, students
often fail to value them or to relate them toan employment context. New initiatives
place increased emphasis on encouraging
students to relate these essential skills to
their future employment2.

Academics can help students to do this by
embedding skills development activities
that are clearly employment orientated. Work placements are a valuable way of
helping students to develop work related
skills and are highly regarded by potential
employers.

1. bringing about research-outcome
2. synergy. Indeed, academia-industry interactionsare a system that requires active andcollaborative participations of all thestakeholders.

The recurring demands of skilled and specialisedmanpower from the industrial sector are not being metas a large section of graduates lack the necessary
critical thinking and analytical skills required by the

Interdependence between academia and
industry should be intensified to fulfil
necessity for sustenance and innovation in
their own domains.
Academia-industry interface can be set up
at diverse levels with different degrees
spanning from mere consultations or visitsto meticulous researches.

RESOURCES AND POTENTIALITY OF
STAKEHOLDERS
To make academia-industry interface a
grand success, all the stakeholders-
academic institutions, industry, and
government should collaborate and
interact with their own resources and
potentiality, as it can be a win-win
partnership.

Government

industrial policy, regulating industrial
placement, industrial pollution, industrial
labour, and financing.

Academia
Academia is also in a position of offering a
neutral environment to bring culturally and
ethnically diverse people together.
Moreover, academia has the capability to
explore concepts which are too dodgy for
business.

Industry can also provide the basis of the
problems and opportunities for application
of university borne new technology or
innovations that can be the prime focus of
academia-industry collaborations.

BARRIERS OF INTERACTION
Despite the fact that the principle of
academia-industry interface has been
adopted by concerned agencies in the
past decade or more, its full potential is far
from being utilised due to the basic
'attitudinal differences' and perception of
technology development among thestakeholders.

From Government
Government is often too sluggish and
generally not flexible enough when dealing
with academia-industry collaboration as it
is often not entrepreneurial by nature and
troubled by monster bureaucracies

From Academia
Academicians have widespread apathy towards appliedresearch and they are reluctant to leave the comfortzone of pure teaching.
Academia is largely unaware of the real industrial and
national needs and unable to market its strengths toindustry adequately.
lack of appropriate incentive to faculty and specializedtechnical infrastructure (R&D Lab.), absence of properrecognition for practising faculty as compared with pureacademics worshipper, bureaucratic hiccups in utilisationof consultancy funds, absence of exclusive university-industry interaction cell in campus, etc.

From Industry
Industry, by nature, is always interested intargeted development.
industry's desired time frames are instant,and investment is guided by efforts thatyield result-oriented solutions.
The costing frames are typically directed
by reluctance to invest in its internal R&Dwhich has either long term or unclearoutput.

A student can become 100% employable only if the passion for the field hehas chosen has a chromosome level impact. For that, each and everystudent has to really understand what he must achieve in this particularbirth, to become a personality what he is really destined to. Since thestudents are NOT cultivated to be good thinkers, they do not have manychoices but just to go with the stream. I have interviewed many student with
a question "What is your ambition?". More than 90% of the answers wouldbe "To get a good job, with good salary". If i again ask them "What is yourdefinition of a Good Job?" they blink. It is very obvious that most of thestudents do not have a clear vision. Their thoughts do not travel beyondgetting a job. If this is the condition of the present day students, what can acompany expect from them? How well will be their performance? Thecompanies still recruit in mass scale and try somehow to fit the students intothe job requirements. But "Attitude is the biggest factor to worry about".
I wish to be a part of any initiative that is intended to enhance the overallstandard of the present day students.
