About
Agni-IIC

Agni College of Technology has established Institution Innovation Council (IIC) under the guidance of MIC of Ministry of Education, Govt. of India in 2019. MIC has envisioned encouraging creation of ‘Institution’s Innovation Council (IICs)’ across selected HEIs. . The main objective of the council is to encourage, inspire and nurture young students by supporting them to work with new ideas and transform them into startups. The Institution’s Innovation Council (IIC) at Agni College of Technology has continued to promote a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship on campus through various activities. In line with the Ministry of Education’s Innovation Cell (MIC) guidelines, a wide range of initiatives were implemented to engage students, faculty, and industry experts, fostering an ecosystem of innovation. The activities for the year were divided into Calendar Activities, Celebration Activities, MIC Driven Activities, and Self-Driven Activities, offering a holistic approach to innovation and entrepreneurship.

Agni College of Technology proudly hosts 20 active Innovation Ambassadors who play a key role in fostering innovation and entrepreneurship. They mentor students, conduct workshops on design thinking and IPR, and connect students with industry experts. Their efforts drive IIC activities, cultivating a dynamic innovation ecosystem that empowers students to thrive.
