About SKEP:

The IEEE Bombay Section comprises of a large and diverse group of industry, academic and

research professionals as well as students, with a common interest in advances in technology and

leveraging them for betterment of humanity.

The section has conceived the Skill and Knowledge Enhancement Program (SKEP) during the year 2013.

SKEP organizes talks, tutorials and distinguished lectures with an intention to reach out to students, faculties and industry 

professionals.

SKEP programme are an exercise in life-long learning and are offered for the

continuing education and skill up gradation of professionals.

In addition, this program seeks to  motivate and inspire the young student community and endow them with a rare insight into what 

the industry has to offer and its expectations, thus helping them ease their entry into corporate life.

Main goals of SKEP include professional skills development, imparting technical expertise to

develop viable applications, disseminating useful knowledge from current fields of interest to the

beneficiaries and inculcating technical and logical thinking among the student community.

SKEP  programmes are conducted by invited experts on the state-of-the-art topics from among the 

research, academic and industrial areas.

The intended audiences are students, faculty, IEEE  members and other interested persons from research, industry and academic institutions. 

SKEP programmes usually of either lecture or tutorial in format and are intended to be highly

interactive.

While Bombay Section takes care of the travel of the SKEP speakers to the venues, the host 

institution is expected to organise accommodation and local hospitality for them.

The host may also  arrange light refreshments for the attendees of the SKEP sessions and adequate publicity of the 

SKEP events within their institution.

Please note that in general the Section will not provide  participation certificates for SKEP sessions unless specified otherwise. 

The venues of SKEP programmes span colleges and other institutions spread over length and

breadth of this Section's geography.

In order to efficiently organize SKEP sessions at various

geographical regions of the Section, it is advisable that academic institutions co-located in a city or

region, pool together and organize the SKEP sessions during the same period.

This will help sharing  the accommodation expenses for the SKEP speakers and costs of other arrangements. Besides this 

will also help the Section with necessary logistics.

The formal Inauguration of the first student branch formed in MGM’s College of Engineering and

Technology was held on 19 th July 2018 in Dr. Sarvepalli RadhaKrish Hall of MGMCET .
