Social Innovation Program
One step at a time to
Empower Social change.
In this course students will be introduced to various sector specific, real time problems of the region. During the 12 weeks of the course, students go on multiple field visits to experience social immersion and develop compassion for their communities through continuous interactions. They simultaneously conduct primary research using the knowledge of research tools and methodologies. This is a completely activity based class, with a fun-loving environment that is infused with challenges. It is a process-oriented program that facilitates teams to get an in-depth understanding of the problem and tuning the approach by building prototypes to create a plausible growth for the community through their solutions.

An online student innovation community is an excellent way to solve regional problems. It leverages the collective knowledge and experience of students from around the region to develop creative solutions to regional issues. The community is an open platform for students to share their ideas and provide feedback on each other’s ideas. It can be used to develop strategies, collect data, and share resources. It is a great way to bring together like-minded students from different backgrounds and locations and collaborate to develop solutions to regional problems.
