These spaces encourage students to design, build, invent and create. These spaces encourage students to design, build, invent and experiment as they experiment as they deeply engage in science, engineering and thinking. It empowers students to create, ideate and fabricate their own designs. Makerspace’s will expose students to new opportunities, enhance our critical thinking and problem solving skills, and will provide an opportunity to innovate.

Another thing that prevails in most colleges is paper.Tons and tons of wood is used to make paper, and most of the time paper waste isn’t disposed in the right way.We have come up with a few efficient methods to improve this scenario, and by implementation of which the self sufficiency of our college can be increased.</span></div><div><span style="font-size:larger;"></span><br/></div><div><span style="font-size:larger;">Tactic #1: Use all the waste food produced in the canteens to make biogas.Around 30-40 kilograms of wet waste is produced in the college canteens, and this can be put in a biogas plant.</span></div><div><span style="font-size:larger;"></span><br/></div><div><span style="font-size:larger;">Tactic #2: Start a system of waste segregation where dry and wet waste is separated.</span></div><div><span style="font-size:larger;"></span><br/></div><div><span style="font-size:larger;">Tactic #3: Start a community fridge- All the food material that could be of use to others (water, extra food, etc) can be stored in a community fridge.</span></div><div><span style="font-size:larger;"></span><br/></div><div><span style="font-size:larger;">Tactic #4: Spread awareness among students on the importance of proper waste management.</span></div><div><span style="font-size:larger;"></span><br/></div><div><span style="font-size:larger;">Tactic #5: Encourage students to participate in competitions that are based on renewable energy projects which can in turn be a step towards a start up.</span></div><div><br/></div>

Furthermore, they empower students to fabricate their own design, which helps them to achieve a deeper learning experience, and gain higher satisfaction, also contributing to producing more student entrepreneurs.</span>

Problem solving and critical thinking have been a major criterion in the present years.

There is a burning need for a platform where students can meet and interact with each other. There are students eager to learn new things and there are also students eager to teach what they know to others. There are a few student clubs on campus that exist, but are not functional. We need to revive these clubs so that they can start organising competitions and workshops for students. Apart from this, we need to identify students from every branch who have good knowledge about their field and can teach other students. They will form the core team of the community. Then we can organise meetups for interested students on selected topics every weekend (say, Saturdays) where students can meet and discuss concepts and ideas. This will lead to greater interaction between students, and creating a conducive environment for innovation. Under this community, we can also have a group of students who work on larger, long-term projects that will help the college. Currently, we rely on third-parties for several software solutions. These groups focused on projects can elect a faculty member who can guide them. To ensure greater participation of students, we will require bus facilities on the weekends. Also, having a space where such sessions can be conducted is essential. Teams involved in cultural activities like art, drama and music can also be involved in this community and have events for students who may want to learn from them.
