The Indo US Collaboration for Engineering Education(IUCEE) was founded with the help of the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE), Pan IIT (organization of IIT alumni), International
Federation of Engineering Education Societies (IFEES) and Indian Society for Technical Education (ISTE) with headquarters at University of Massachusetts Lowell (UML). It was conceptualized by over 150 leaders of engineering education and businesses from US and India in 2007. Generous financial contributions and intellectual advice from Desh and Jaishree Deshpande, Sudha and Narayana Murthy, Arjun and Kiran Malhotra and in-kind support from Infosys Technologies have helped initiate the program which is now on the way to becoming a success and financially sustainable.
The vision of IUCEE is to improve the quality and global relevance of engineering education and research in India with focus on faculty development, student development, curriculum development, as well as improved teaching technologies & research.
The IUCEE process of improving quality of engineering education in India is already under way during the past four years with initial financial support from philanthropic families and in-kind support from the corporate sector. The large pool of engineering educators and entrepreneurs of Indian origin in the US has enabled the momentum to be built and sustained. Each year, international experts from the US travel to India to discuss global best practices in teaching and research in their field with Indian faculty leaders from public & private colleges in one week workshops at Faculty Leadership Institutes (FLI).Starting 2011, the IUCEE Virtual Academy has been created using technology to enable US experts to conduct live Webinars and MiniCourses on-line from the US to faculty and students all over India. An IUCEE College Consortium has been created in 2010 in order to provided financial sustainability. This Consortium has 46 college members from all over India in 2012.
