MoU Signed Between Synergem & MLR Institute of Technology to Establish Center of Excellence (COE)
Synergem Consultancy Private Limited proudly announces the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with MLR Institute of Technology on 11th February 2023 to establish a Center of Excellence (COE) in Welding and Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) Technologies with world-class infrastructure.
This collaboration represents a major step toward bridging the gap between academic education and real industrial skill requirements by creating an advanced training ecosystem within the MLRIT campus.
Addressing the Growing Industry Skill Demand
Today’s core industries are experiencing a significant demand for certified and industry-trained professionals. While engineering graduates possess theoretical knowledge, industries increasingly prefer candidates who are already trained, certified, and capable of contributing from day one.
Modern industries no longer rely on untrained fresh manpower; instead, they prioritize hiring professionals trained through specialized industry-focused institutions such as Synergem.
Industries Driving the Demand
The requirement for skilled professionals is especially high across major core sectors, including:
- Refinery Industries
- Petrochemical Industries
- Oil & Gas Sector
- Heavy Engineering
- Fabrication Industries
- Process Equipment Manufacturing
- Steel Plants
- Aerospace & Defense Industries
- Shipping & Submarine Engineering
- Automobile Industries
- Casting & Forging Industries
These industries require expertise in welding technologies, inspection methods, and quality assurance practices aligned with global standards.
Challenges Faced by Students
Despite strong industry demand, many students face challenges in pursuing specialized training due to:
- High cost of industrial practical training
- Expensive international certifications
- Limited access to real industrial exposure
- Lack of industry-integrated learning environments
As a result, students often struggle to transition smoothly from academics to employment in core engineering sectors.
Establishment of the Center of Excellence (COE)
To address this growing Industry–Institute gap, Synergem and MLR Institute of Technology jointly established a Center of Excellence (COE) in Welding & NDT Technologies within the MLRIT campus.
The COE aims to:
✅ Provide industry-oriented practical training
✅ Deliver international-standard certifications
✅ Develop job-ready technical professionals
✅ Integrate academic learning with industrial applications
✅ Make advanced training accessible at affordable costs
The facility is equipped with modern infrastructure designed to simulate real industrial environments and training conditions.
Industry Collaboration & Opportunities
Through the Center of Excellence, Synergem has built strong partnerships with more than 50 core industries across India and abroad, enabling:
- Industry exposure for students
- Practical skill development
- International certification training
- Placement-oriented learning pathways
- Direct industry interaction
The COE focuses on producing industry-ready professionals equipped with globally relevant technical skills in Welding and Non-Destructive Testing technologies.
A Step Toward Industry-Ready Education
The Synergem–MLRIT collaboration reflects a shared vision of transforming technical education by combining academic excellence with practical industrial training.
By offering advanced skills training at a nominal and accessible cost, the initiative supports students in building sustainable careers in core engineering industries while meeting the workforce demands of modern industrial sectors.
Looking Ahead
The MoU signed on February 11, 2023, marks the beginning of a long-term partnership focused on innovation in skill development, industry collaboration, and career-oriented technical education.
Synergem Consultancy Private Limited remains committed to empowering students with practical skills, international certifications, and industry exposure through the Center of Excellence at MLR Institute of Technology.
