Andhra University on Wednesday inaugurated an Engineering Test & Validation Centre, where components of a circuit can be tested and validated before fabrication.
Vice-Chancellor G.P. Raja Sekhar said the centre, set up as part of the Andhra University Incubation Council and A-Hub, is a joint project with the Department of Science and Technology (DST), with Phase I costing ₹50 lakh.
“Whether DST supports Phase II or not, Andhra University has already made a commitment,” he said, adding that equipment worth about ₹70 lakh would be received within two months. The facility, he said, would be useful for students and affiliated colleges, and would support skill development and the startup culture.
