Industry leader speak

The foundation engineering courses that exist at present need something more. Colleges need to spend time to make their students corporate-ready. Students require role-related knowledge, cognitive ability and leadership quality to better fit into the corporate world. These come with hands-on experiences and internships that require a serious effort, something that Kalvium is working on.
