As students get a wide range of courses and programmes to choose from while entering the university, likewise they have a set of choices even before graduating successfully from Amrita. According to Prof. C. Parameswaran, Director – CIR, “The Directorate of Corporate & Industry Relations of the University facilitates students with three options – Placements, Higher Studies and Entrepreneurship”.
Thus, one of the options for students passing out of Amrita who have the urge to start something is to become an entrepreneur. To nurture the entrepreneurial spirit among youngsters who dare to innovate and initiate, Amrita Centre for Entrepreneurship (ACE) was established by CIR in June, 2011.
