Towards the construction of a skilled youth
“We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future”
– Franklin D Roosevelt
India is one of the countries in the world currently experiencing an explosion in the youth population. And undoubtedly, skilled youth is the supreme asset of any land. However, the dismaying fact is that the surpassing potential of our youth is yet to be explored to its fullest. Higher institutes of learning and universities play a pivotal role in equipping their students to face the ever-evolving world fraught with unseen challenges. Reckoning with this alarming fact, the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at SRM University-AP is organising a one-month-long programme on “Youth Empowerment and Skill Development” under the ISR activities of the university from Aug 29, 2022, to Sept 28, 2022.
The programme is exclusively organised for young people living in rural communities near SRM University-AP with an aim to develop the knowledge and experiences that will help them live happier, more fulfilling lives and improve their ability to make better decisions about their future. Courses are offered across various domains such as internet technologies, web development, MS office, and the like that have become essential tools in a technology-driven world.
The inaugural session is scheduled on August 29, 2022, at 05.15 pm. The event will be graced by the honourable Vice-Chancellor Prof VS Rao, Dean – SEAS Prof BV Babu, Associate Dean – SEAS & the Head of the Department of CSE – Prof T Ragunathan, and other university dignitaries. Classes will be conducted between 5.30 pm and 7.00 pm during the month.
Join us and empower yourself for a better tomorrow.

Save the soil for a greener tomorrow
The Save Soil movement was launched by the yogi, mystic, and the visionary, Sadhguru, around three decades ago as a small step that would contribute towards his lifetime vision of raising Human Consciousness. Over time, it snowballed into a global movement garnering support from international and national agencies and uniting people worldwide to affirm their commitment to restore the planet by advocating for the health and future of our soil.
This effort will reap rewards when ecological challenges are taken seriously by corporations, organisations, individuals, and governments and when public support allows them to embrace long-term policy changes to protect the soil. SRM University-AP in collaboration with Isha Foundations is conducting a workshop to create awareness about soil conservation among the student community.
Date: September 05, 06 & 09, 2022
Venue: ALC, Level 4 – Admin Block
The time calls for a conscientious approach towards the environment from all sections of the society from local communities, organisations, farmers, schools, and governments. Join the #SaveSoilMovement and lend your hands to make a greener future possible.
