Live-in-Labs®

Live-in-Labs® is a multidisciplinary experiential learning program that breaks classroom and lab barriers by applying learned theory in real-world settings. This credit-based academic program draws on principles of lean research for the development and deployment of sustainable solutions for current challenges faced by rural communities in India. By directly living in rural communities (labs) and co-designing solutions to development challenges, program participants gain first-hand knowledge and know-how of identifying and assessing community needs and subsequently developing and implementing viable solutions through various participatory methods.

Students Participation in Live-in-Labs® Activities

With over 150 projects in 21 states across India, Live-in-Labs® participants have touched the lives of approximately 60,000 rural residents during the past several years. With participation from over 30 institutions around the world and nearly 50 departments, schools, and centers at Amrita, students and faculty have clocked in a monumental 200,000 + hours in the field working towards sustainable development in rural communities.

Around 60 students from the department of mechanical engineering have actively participated in the Live-in-Labs® programme since the academic year 2017-18 onwards.

Gokulashtami Celebrations at Amrita – Coimbatore Campus

The birthday celebrations of Sri Krishna are conducted with a lot of pomp and splendour. During this occasion, the campus takes on a festive look, and the students, faculty, and non-teaching staff show extraordinary zeal and commitment in organizing various vibrant cultural programs. A grand procession with mechanized floats that depicts multiple episodes in Lord Sri Krishna’s life, like; Mahishasura Vadham, Sundarakandam, Dashavatharam, Kaliya Narthanam, Vishwaroopa Darshanam and Mantralayam, etc., is a major attraction during the event. The mechanized floats are fabricated by the students themselves using the campus workshop facilities with guidance from faculty coordinators and workshop staff. To motivate healthy competition and to bring out the creative and artistic potential of the students, various other competitions in sports, literary, and culture, are also conducted.

Every year ACME actively participates in all the events conducted during Gokulashtami Celebrations. ACME bagged the overall 1st Prize for the various events conducted during Gokulashtami Celebrations of the Year-2019. The following Figure displays a few snapshots of the celebrations organized in 2019.
