Hindustan Aeronautics Limited ventures into development sector

 

 

BANGLORE..  Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) will sponsor students at Masters Level in technology and development programmes at Centre for Technology Alternatives for Rural Areas (CTARA) in IIT Bombay from 2014-15, with an aim to boost supply of specialised technical professionals in the development sector as a part of HAL's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Initiatives called 'HAL CSR.'

 

 

 

"Much of the demands of our society require engineering services and solutions. We believe that we can overcome some of these challenges through technologists trained in both, engineering and applied social science skills. Hence we decided to launch this new initiative", says RK Tyagi, Chairman, HAL.

 

 

 

HAL's support will be in the form of five fellowships for M Tech students at CTARA. These students will undertake relevant research in their second year. The Fellow will bring new innovations, practices and research to key programmes and activities, necessary to serve needs of a vast majority of Indian population, that is at the lower strata of the society.
