The five member top management team of the Faculty of Engineering visited to the Rice University on 2nd June 2018. This was coordinated by Dr. R. Thevamaran. This visit was also supported by the Care for Education at Houston. It was excellent discussion with the Associate Vice-Provost starting with breakfast. Excellent discussions on overall management, concept of curriculum and focus of this University. The Oshman Engineering Design Kitchen (OEDK), which is basically function for designing-prototyping and deploying, was very attractive on giving hands on experience for the students. Also helping to take the projects to the commercial level. Further few very expensive higher level research equipment were observed. Especially it was discussed that how they were managed for better utilization to do research and development for the real benefits.
