The need for maximizing the availability of "Industry-Ready" engineers in the Indian manufacturing sector has been viewed as a significant gap. CMTI has initiated a project “Academy of Excellence for Advanced Manufacturing Technology (AEAMT)” to bridge this gap.
 
AEAMT is a new initiative at CMTI with the objective of generating qualified human resource in advanced technologies of manufacturing domain.
 
The academy would offer specially designed core technology programmes with a heavy focus on experiential learning through hands-on experiments, participation in live industry oriented R&D projects and shop floor exposure to make the participants "Industry Ready". The existing advanced manufacturing and related laboratories would form a part of the infrastructure of the Academy.
 
Vision:
 
"Foster research, generation of know-how and application of knowledge and technology in the Manufacturing Sector through supply of Qualified and Trained Human Resource with an international outlook".
 
Objectives:
 
“Technology Generation and Practical Deployment for enabling industries to face global competition” as opposed to “Technology Acquisition and Adoption”.
